HELP! Cannot see/load Images, Audio, or video in project
After searching through other posts, I cannot find out what happened or how to fix my issue. I downloaded a trial version to determine if this would be a good program for our company, but already ran into major issues.
Project details:
3 Scenes: Scene 1 has 12 slides, scene 2 has 6 question slides, scene 3 has 7 question slides
Windows XP, working off of local hard drive the entire time, all images/video are on local hard drive and verified they work.
Issues:
When looking at Story View (see image below), all images are visible and look great, but when I open one of the slides, the audio isn't loading, images won't load, and the mp4 videos won't play (see image below). HOWEVER, on the first 9 slides of the first scene, everything works perfectly including the audio, images, and video.
1. "Loading Audio..." appears on multiple slides and never loads. However, some slides have multiple audio recordings and one works fine, but the other one just says loading audio. I have let sit for an hour and nothing... Is there a way to find source audio file recording? Note* I can delete the audio and record new within this project and it seems to work.
2. Images: Won't show on slide view. I've tried deleting image and re-inserting, but that just gives a blank image box. (I did find that creating a new Storyline project and inserting image works fine, but I don't want to redo all my slides).
3. Video: Same issue with images.
I like this program, but being this happened the very first time of using the program that is a big turn off. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Sarah,
Thanks for sharing what you are experiencing with multiple files.
Do you know what version of Storyline you're using?
- You can check by going to Help > About Articulate Storyline
We are currently on Build 3.52.25247.0 of Storyline 360. You can read all of the details here.
If you're already on the latest version, I'd recommend repairing your installation to see if the behavior improves.
You mention a hard drive, but please be sure that you are working on your local C: Drive with your software installation, project files, and assets.

Hi Leslie,
Thanks. I am on the correct version (just installed the trial yesterday). My files are indeed on the C: drive. I will try another reinstall from scratch. I am wondering if this might be related to the other issue I flagged in this thread https://community.articulate.com/discussions/articulate-storyline/malware-warning-on-storyline-files#reply-748984 to which you responded indicating a ticket would be opened. I'll try a fresh install to see if there is any change in behaviour.
I appreciate the additional information, Sarah. I'll link this conversation to your case as well in case the fresh installation does not resolve the issue.

Thank you. I uninstalled, rebooted, and reinstalled. Same issue is still present. Appreciate you opening the ticket and I hope we can get this solved. I'm scared try opening anything at the moment for fear that will end up corrupting good files that represent many many hours of work!
