Timeline problem - please help

Hi. According to the posts on this forum this is a common problem but it's starting to become quite a frustrating issue and I'd like to fix it...

I'm trying to create simple animations (I don't know if I can call it that) where the camera moves from one side of the room to the other. It is quite easy to create something like this even if you have no experience, but there is no problem... The problem is that most of the things on the scene are visible only in frame 0. It is difficult to explain, but you can say, that they "disappear".

Today I tried to work with it a little more, I went through a few settings and found that these objects don't disappear, they just move to another place, probably to the center of the scene, but I don't understand why. I have 451 set as the total in the timeline, the "animation" is created from Frame 0 to Frame 300, which I understand should represent 10 seconds (but that is not important). From frame 1 to frame 300, some objects will therefore be moved.

I hope that this problem can be understood from the way I explained it, but I probably can't do it better. While looking through the posts on the forum, I found a few similar problems, some of them mentioned a fix, but it doesn't work for me. Anyone have any advice on how to fix this problem? Thanks

    Did you import the objects on like frame 10 and moved them on frame 0 to where you wanted them? There would have to be a keyframe on the objects somewhere that's causing them to move. Check the objects and make sure there's not a keyframe set.

    I never moved anything in that room. Only with the character, but he does not play any role in the animation

    it's possible that the animation is there from the initial load, at least one PA has several products with (not obviosuly wanted) keyframes set. Try seelcting everything but the item(s) you wish to animate, then use Edit>Object>Clear Animation>Clear selected item(s)

    Thanks for the advice, but I still couldn't solve it
