timeline resets at insane time..

Hello
Why do ALL the timelines of most of my slides changed to 115 seconds ?
I placed all my sounds and animation and just discovered a lots of slides changed their times !!! I did not changed the layouts and it was some slides i did not even worked on for a while, but some hours ago everything was normal.
How can I cancel this ?
I've put the timeline view at the smallest zoom level and I still have to scroll to grab the end of ALL of my timeline for every slides (and the deadline of my project is today...)
I've noticed this bug before but today it's a huge problem !

Hey Sandy. This can be a frustrating experience, especially when you're on deadline. There are a number of reasons that the timeline moves:
1. The obvious one is that it will move to accommodate the length of your audio. That's by design.
2. If you copy/paste an object from one slide to another the object will carry over the same length of time that it was on the original slide. This is the most frustrating one for me and it causes a lot of problems.
I hope this helps.
