I'm pretty new and I can't get the movie to play

[slargedevil]

I did a simple animation the other day. I do mean "simple". But it seem that it doesn't play all the way when I preview it. I plays all the way through when I play it on the stage. I have about 4 layers. 3 layers have circles being tweened from different parts of the stage and 1 layer has broken apart text falling into place in the center of the stage. Each layer has sound attached to it. Is it maybe because I didn't apply the sound correctly?

First off, which version of Flash are you using?

Try exporting the movie, rather than previewing it. Hopefully you should be able to view the animation in the Flash player.

If this dosn't remedy the situation, post the .fla file and I'll take a look and see if there's a problem there.
