Sending a PowerPoint show with music

[Guest]

I want to send a .pps to someone with music. I've been sending the music
file along with the show, but it won't play for the person who recieves it.
Is there a solution?

If the music is in wav format, you can embed the music into the presentation.
If you are using other format, you can also try to convert the music into wav
format using sound convertor. By doing so, the music will be embedded into
the presentation (preventing the link from breaking) and you do not have to
email the music.

Alternately for non-wav format,
Create a new folder and move the ppt and music into the folder.
Now, open the ppt file, delete and reinsert the music to create a pathless
link.
Then, save your presentation.
Email both the presentation and music.

Read about how to embed your music into the presentation, where to download
sound convertors and other related information here:
