Windows Media Player As Software / Mp3 Dosen't Work
Jun 1, 2008
I have synced my mp3 upto windows media player as the software that came with my mp3 dosen't work that well.The problem i have with the windows player is that it won't allow me to drag items across so that i can get the songs on to the player.
Can anyone tell me how to configure windows media player 10 to work from behind the windows firewall which was installed when i updated to windows service pack2? I am using windows xp and explorer6.0 with verizon dsl 3.0 internet connection.
Downloaded SP2 for Windows XP Home and immediately lost all video (not audio) in both Real Player and Windows Media Player. Removed each of these and reloaded "fresh" version - same problem. Then removed SP2 and presto - video returns.
i have MCE and whenever i try to play a video or tv, it says that the files needed to display a video are missing or corrupted. How can i fix this. The videos work fine in Media player, but not in Media Center
each time i try and error message appears: "gdiplus.dll is missing".what can i do to fix the problem? iv already tried downloading the software from the microsoft website but the same message came up.iv also searched my pc for the gdipus.dll file and loads come up!
i tried to install media player but it said i needed the update rollup 2 so i tried to install that but it failed and no updates are working they all fail. Someone told me to uninstall some updates and reinstall them but i cant find them. any ideas?
Lately I've tried to get onto Final Fantasy Online and it doesn't appear to be letting me online, even though my internet is clearly working. It appears to be the exact same for WinMX (yes, it is a legal share program, so don't shout at me and refuse to help me) But at the same time as all this, my Windows Media Player refuses to play most of my MP3 tracks.
WMP 10 will not play completely through an mpg file without hanging every few seconds.It seems like it is having a buffering problem but these short 3 minute mpgs have never caused a problem before. I tried downloading WMP10 again nothing changed.Is there a buffer setting that might have changed? I have 2G RAM and these files are little. I'm completely up to date on all MS updates.
I use Windows Media Player 10 as my primary media player. But I like to keep Real Player and QuickTime quietly waiting in the wings and call upon them occasionally. Well, I got the latest version of the Real player and clipped its wings so it wouldn't take over every audio and video file i have. Then downloaded the latest QuickTime player (after uninstalling the old one.) Every time an attempt is made to install the QuickTime player after 11 or so seconds into the process it stops and gives me this little message: "1607: Unable to install Installshield Scripting Runtime."
I had a TV/ FM card installed. I got it to work. I tested the dvd/cd player with a music cd. Windows Media Player10 ran through its setup but no music. I lost sound to the tv/fm radio. I looked in device manager but didn't see any yellow marks.
Whenever I try running Windows Media Player 10, it takes up about 98% of my cpu usage. Making it slow to play songs whenever I try clicking on a new song it takes like 45 secs just to change it. I use Anti/Vir, Ad-Aware SE Personal, Spybot S%D 1.3, and MRU
I keep having a glitch in windows media player, where the texture seems to be incorrect or somthing... I have no idea what is causing it or what started it in the first place...anyone have any ideas on a way to fix it?...I've tried reinstalling windows media player 10...but it doesn't fix it
im having trouble with media player. i have vs. 9 atm. ive tried to install upgrades and i get an error. when i insert a DVD i get this message *windows media player is currently unavailable to play dvd video.Try decreasing the number of colors displayed on your monitor or decreasing your screen resolution. For additional solutions click more info.* tried all that and i get same message..
i apereantly deleted or did something with system32 folder. but if it got deleted should i even be able to use the computer? anyway. i worried about it after i cant find/open windows media player or mspaint. so can it be fixed by entering the windows xp disc and putting repair, do i have to reinstall and delete everything or is there any other way of fixing this?
I havent had a problem in a while. Then all of a sudden while listening to music with the Windows Media Player the system stopped responding and the music kept playing for a few seconds and then the system shut down.
On my Windows Media Player and error occurs after about 2-3 minutes of play that says this program cannot continue. i have no idea why this is happening.
when I try to play a movie preview with either media player 9 or 10, I get good audio but a black video window. the media seems to be mpeg-4 video v3 if that helps any. I'm sure it's operator error of some sort on my end!
I have a voicemail service that I access either by phone or online. I've been having trouble playing messages online and saving messages to my hard disk. Left-clicking on a message should open a WMP 10 window and play the message. The problem is that it works sporadically. One minute I can play a message fine, then I'll try playing another one and it might play fine, but it might not. If not, the bottom of the window says ''connecting...'' and nothing happens.
If I right-click on a message to get a menu that includes, ''save target as'' and choose this option, I get a ''file download'' window that says ''getting file information''. Then either a ''save as'' (?) window is displayed or the ''file download'' window gets stuck saying ''getting file information.''
When I insert a music CD, a window comes- up asking if I want real player or take no action.What I want is auto-play with windows media player and cannot figure this out.
I have a pretty major problem with my main computer. The wireless network i have is running fine because all me other computers are working. On my main computer the internet does not work. It says all is connected. If i try to open network places, explorer freezes up.
Having recently had someone else using my computer for a while, installing various software (like winamp and SubEdit player) it seems windows media player (that's what I use) no longer recognises the usual files as media files like .mp3 .wmv .m3u .avi etc etc so when I click open file and select "media files (all types)" in the file type box it shows nothing, so I have to change it to all files which is irritating. Media player still plays everything fine but this is pretty annoying.
Im mad that my My Music folder is empty, how do i put my windows media player music in it? whenever i download music i just go to "Add to windows media player", how do i bring that to "My music"
I get this every time I try to open a media file even when I click "always use selected program" This just started happening a few days ago after I ran a bunch of registry cleaners.
I can play music, but can't play music videos.I get this error message:Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the specified protocol is not supported. In the Open URL dialog, try opening the file using a different transport protocol (for example, "http:" or "rtsp:").I am also having problems with UPDATING Windows Media- I get a message saying I am missing some components. I cant go into the Microsoft updates webpage either- I get a message saying ''page cannot be displayed''
For months I had no problem ripping cd's and playing the music on WMP10. Suddenly the system will no longer do either. Clicking on any of the listed songs results in other music playing which,obviously was not affected. I might add that listed number of times previously played were all erased. Has a new policeman for copyrighted music shown up somehow?
