How can I make slides NOT advance automatically?

I'm building a project manually by making new slides and putting graphics and text on them.  It's not a recording of software.  I would like the user to read each slide for as long as they want to, then click to go to the next one.  I can't find a setting for this.
I tried setting the default slide duration to 300 sec.  Which sort of works, but every element I add to a slide still defaults to 3 sec so I have to change each element seperately.  Not practical at all.  ideas?

Hi, I'm also having a slide advancing problem using CP8. I have three smart shapes used as buttons on the screen. After each is clicked, a prompt to click Next (in the playbar) shows. I have a click box after the prompt to stop the screen from advancing. This works fine if I only click the items once. If I click them again, the screen advances.
I tried adding an additional smart shape. If I clicked two of the items again, the screen advances.
I need a slight delay before the prompt shows and an effect on the prompt, so I can't just set the Advanced Actions to pause.
Here are some screen caps of my course...
Slide properties and Timeline
Advanced actions of smart shapes....
Properties for Click Box and Smart Shape that "pause" the slide
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need to send this out ASAP.

  • How can I make music (mp3) play automatically in one Scene (NO buttons)?

    How can I make an mp3 play automatically in one Scene (NO buttons)? I have been searching the net for answers for over 10 hours with no answer... My movie will not be for the web, it needs to be portable (CD or flash drive)...
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
    thank you!

    You just need to look in Help for the Sound class and possibly SoundChannel... if you have an MP3 in your library - right click it, and go to properties. Set the sound to export for ActionScript - and give it a class name - mySound will work. Then you can make it play with something as simple as:
    var a:SoundChannel = new mySound().play();

  • How can I make my wifi connection automatic?

    Hi All,
    we have a Timemachine and have a network setup on it. How can I make my connection to that network automatic when I turn on my macbook and eliminate all other close by net works? please email me at: [email protected]
    thnks

    i would like to know how to make my wifi connection invisible to others
    This is not really possible, since there are any number of free utilities on the Internet that will reveal a "hidden" network in seconds. Anyone who wants to see your network will be able to do so very quickly and easily.
    iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad often have difficulty connecting to a "hidden" network as well.
    If you still want to do this......
    Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next page
    Click the Wireless Options button near the bottom of the page
    Enter a check mark in the box next to Create hidden network
    Click Save
    Click Update at the lower right of the window and allow a minute for the Time Capsule to restart

  • How Can I Make Acrobat Not Resize Images?

    I am trying to turn around 80 images into the pages of a PDF file. The pictures are saved as JPEGs and have the exact dimensions I want them to have as pages of a PDF. When I turn them into a PDF in Acrobat Pro 9 they get resized so when viewed at 100% the text looks like crap. I want to know how I can make Acrobat not mess with the dimensions of my pictures when turning them into a PDF. I make the PDF by clicking the Create button and selecting Merge Files into a Single PDF... . I then drag and drop the pictures into the window and click Combine Files. I have tried all three of the File Size settings and all of them turn out wrong. How can I make this expensive program work the way I want it to by doing htis simple thing right?
    I have attached two files, the first of one of the images that will make a page viewed in windows picture and fax viewer at the original size. The second is a screen shot of the messed up PDF with blurry text, viewed at 100%. I want the text in the second picture to look just like the text in the first.

    I am not trying to justify Adobe's choice, just an explanation of what may have happened. When one asks for 100%, there is a question of by pixel, by inches (cm), or by size on the screen. These are interpretations and the fact that MS and Adobe interpret them differently is not surprising. However, I think that what you are seeing is a result of the pixel display issues on the screen and with proper sizing, they should appear the same (at least I think). In Acrobat, there is also a smoothing feature under the display preferences that may be an issue and is related to how it extrapolates for the pixels.

  • How can I make my iPod sync automatically?

    When I first got my iPod I chose for it NOT to sync automatically but I should have. I have no idea how to get back to those settings but want to change it so it syncs on it's own. I've read a few topics here and noticed stuff about Summary tabs but the thing is, I have nothing like that on mine, I have no setting options whatsoever. I tried registering my iPod on here to see if that would do something but the thing is, it asked for payment details but I don't want to pay for anything. I don't use the iTunes store to download my music, I transfer it from another downloading software.
    So, my question is - how do I make my iPod sync automatically and how do I find these 'settings' that everybody else appears to have?

    No it doesn't. Instead I have a screen with a picture advertising 3 different iPods.

  • Text messages don't always send; I get a red flag message. How can I make them re-send automatically?

    This drives me nuts: Occassionally, but not often, I will send a text message and it does not go through. This happens both when I am using iMessage or regular text messages. It gets me into a lot of trouble: I assume my text message has gone through, then check my phone half an hour later and realize the message has not been sent. I don't even get a vibration or a notice that it hasn't sent; it's only when I check my messages that I see the red flag but my undelivered message.
    How can I get the iPhone to just automatically keep trying to re-send these messages until it goes through, or at the very least to give me a notification buzz when the message doesn't go through so I know to manually re-send it myself?

    At this time that option does not exist. The only workaround that I can think of is to watch and make sure the text sends before closing the app.

  • How can i make to not be saved everything that i spell?

    How can i remove some spelling on websites and make it to not be saved anymore?
    I hope the question was understand.

    If I understand your problem, do you want to remove some words that you added to your personal dictionary of the spell checker? If that is the problem, see [[using the spell checker]], the "Removing a word you have accidentally added" section gives details of a file that you need to edit to remove the words.

  • How can I make slides into movies to show on DVDs?

    I have just scanned about a thousand of my 91 year old Dad's slides and have been trying to transfer them to discs, so that they can be easily played on a DVD player so that he doesn't have to go through that oldfashioned slide show procedure with the projector.
    I scanned them, edited them using Photostudio and then dragged them into iMovie. 99 seemed to be the maximum number of photos I could get to burn onto a DVD. (Using Roxio Toast)
    After a lot of trial and error, I thought I had done it successfully, but now find they don't work even as a slide show (clicking on from one to the other with the DVD remote), let alone as movies. I had arranged them into categories and made movies of about 50 each, with transitions.
    The first major problem became apparent after the first few were done, when I realised that iMovie tends to prefer NTSC to PAL and sometimes reverts to NTSC of it's own accord. (I'm in Australia, where PAL is the standard)
    I gave up on trying to select music to go with the photos, as when I tried to select the movie to burn, the music would not be there.
    I found that about 10 seconds duration was best for each photo, and tried selecting all to add the same Ken Burns transition to each one. I thought by keeping each disc to only a few 'slide shows' of about 15 minutes duration each I had finally got it right, but apparently it won't play on Dad's DVD player.
    I would like step-by-step instructions on exactly how I should go about this project, as it seems I will have to do it all again. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Casuarina,
    It would really help if the machine you are using has iDVD. If it did you would use iMove to create slideshows then drag them into iDVD, customize the DVD with a them, music, etc. then burn the DVD.
    You can also do all the slideshow (99 images each) right within iDVD, then burn the DVD.
    Macs are great, but you need the right software, and iDVD is what you need to make DVDs.
    There is a hack to be able to burn a DVd with iDVD using an external or non-supported burner.
    There is more information in this thread
