Here’s A Couple of Free Sound Effect Websites: [FlashKit Sound FX](http://www.flashkit.com/soundfx/) [A1 Sound FX](http://www.a1freesoundeffects.com/) [Find Sound FX](http://www.findsounds.com/) - Type In What Sound You Want. To add a sound to the button when the mouse moves over it : 1. Double Click the button or rightclick - edit in place. 2. Go to file \> import to library \> and import the sound you want. 3. Press ctrl + l to bring up the library. 4. Click the **Over** state keyframe of the button. 5. Drag and drop the sound onto the canvas of that keyframe or go to the properties panel, and select a sound from the drop down. To add a sound when the button is pressed, do steps 1 - 3. Step 4 will be the **Down** state instead of the over. And step 5. - Hope that helped - ---

Umm…no idea at all. I **NEVER** had that problem. Well just remake the button and reimport the sounds I guess. Then, on each keyframe where theres a sound, select that keyframe, go to the properties panel, sync drop downmenu - **Event**. 🙂
