Trigger an animation without clicking

I am making a powerpoint movie, but on one slide I put in a GIF as a
background and
I put a sound file into it, so it lines up with the animation. But then,
when I go from the slide before it, the animation has already gone halfway
through. I don't want to have to make it a trigger, but can I make it so the
animation only plays when I want it to?
PS. I made the GIF the background.
Thanks
 
Sorry about that.

Keep the animation to start "with previous" but adjust the settings for it
to start later...
 
Do you mean an animated GIF or just a graphic of type GIF? I ask because
there are differences in how Animated GIFs play in the different versions of
PPT. Check out this information from Sonia Coleman's site:
