Many sound clips from clip organizer do not play. Why?

Many sounds play but many do not. They play when I download them from the
site but after they go to my clip organizer, they do not play. After I insert
into a slide, they do not play either.
 
I bet the file path is too long. Try copying one of the clips to a folder
directly on your C drive -- maybe C:\test -- and see if they work then.

Be sure to put your presentation in there, too, before you insert the sound.
Many of the clips in clip organizer are MIDI and so cannot be embedded into
your PPT file -- they'll be linked.

Alternatively, it could be an issue of your sound card not being able to
play two WAV sounds at once or something. What type of sound files are you
working with? MP3, WAV, or MIDI are the three most probable....
 
thank you for "attempting" to answer my query. I don't really know what
you're talking about. I use PPt all the time and know what I'm doing but I
haven't a clue about paths an midi etc. It's in my clip organizer so I double
click to insert. I double click to preview and "nothing". I download from
micro.com to my organizer. It will play on the site prior to download but
then does not in my slide. I'm sorry. But your tech talk is over my head.
thanks. Lainie
