I created 3 slideshows and saved them. I later edited some of the music. When I went back to edit the slide shows I can not find any means for opening them up.

To re-edit a Slideshow you must have created a 'Saved Slideshow Collection' from the tab.

This creates a special Collection in the Collection Panel that you can re-open by a [Double-click] on the Slideshow Collection, or a [Click] on the white arrow at the end of the SS-Collection name.

You can add or delete files from this special SS-Collection to change the content of images.

You can also duplicate these special collections [Right-Click] and make a 'Copy' that you can edit in a different way.

 

After you 'Export' a slideshow to a video format the video is unchangeable. You re-edit from the SS Collection and export once again.

I added music to the video. The music selections do not stay with the Photo Collections.

I'm having a hard time believing so much effort would go into the slide show and there be no way to save a "Slideshow Project". All the pan settings, slide length, Identity Plate, etc....NOTHING but the collection of photos remain?

I just tested a Slideshow with music-

The selected track stayed with the SS-Collection even after shutting LrC down and re-starting. All settings and music were just as last edited!

 

Did you actually read my post above?

no way to save a "Slideshow Project".

 

NOTHING but the collection of photos remain

And is that a specific SAVED SLIDESHOW COLLECTION?

Show me a screen-clip of your SS-Collection in the Collection panel please.
