Finally fixed problem WMP11 not recognizing MicroPh

I am an advanced computer user and engineer. I have spent probably 20 - 30 hours trying to get WMP to recognize my MicroPhoto. As you all know Creative support is worthless. So I tried everything written in every forum and expert computer forums. No go.
Here is what I had to do:
1. Restore install of XP and XP2
2. Roll back WMP. Mine went back to WMP9 from the XP restore.
3. Roll back Windows Media Format Runtime to earlier version.
4. If you don't have a copy of WMP0 try to get it from Microsoft. If you do have it then install it. Don't let Windows update it or it will go to WMP.
5. Plug in your MicroPhoto and you are good to go.
The next steps are optional:
1. Advertise your Creative Micro on Ebay and talk about what a great MP3 it is and how it won some award in 2005.
2. If no one will buy the piece of garbage or you feel uncomfortable / unethical about selling your headache to some unsuspecting person then jump to number 3.
3. Take a large blunt object, say a hammer, a rock, whatever, and put it out of your misery.
4. Take a deep breath, realize some lessons in life are unavoidable and not your fault, and bite the bullet and buy an Ipod.Message Edited by gpm on 0-3-2007:09 AM

Yet another problem; iPod not recognized in windows after uninstall

So I'm still trying to fix my faulty iPod and now, after Apple telling me to uninstall and re-install the USB software, it is not recognized, when I plug my iPod in it comes up "installing software" then asks for a disk, thing is I was not given a disk with my iPod and I don't think iPod touch uses a disk either anyway.
This is really irritating as I think I have a solution to my original problem and now it's doing this...
Any help ?

Thank you
I actually managed to fix it this way;
My laptop (Advent Roma) decided to freeze all USB ports so after restoring my laptop back to how it was on the 27th (Last week) I re-installed iTunes and put my iPod cable back in, it installed again but this time appeared in iTunes, it still won't restore but I'm glad it's recognized again

Found a fix for windows not recognizing vision M, possible for oth

I went through the same frustration as so many people about windows not recognizing my vision M. Here's how I solved it. Go to device manager (right click on My Computer, choose manage then device manager) go to the unrecognized usb device, right click and choose update driver. choose no fior connecting to windiows update, then install software from a specific location, now choose don't search, I will choose the driver to install, find and install the driver for portable devices called MTP device. this should solve the issue. this is only for players not recognized by windows. I'm not sure if some versions of wondows can't figure out where to find the driver or what.

Yes that is one way to get it working
Otherways are suggested <a href='http://www.nomadness.net/modules.php?name=FAQ&myfaq=yes&id_cat=8&categories =Nomad+Jukebox+Zen#228' target=_blank>here[/url].
Glad to hear that you got your issue solved on your own.

FINALLY A FIX FOR iPODS NOT RECOGNIZED BY iTUNES

Important Note: This fix is only for people whose device manager is blank. Also, Windows explorer (my computer) must recognize you iPod, but iTunes does not.
Alas, my friends, it is done. No thanks to Apple for solving this problem. After a full month of tring to fix this problem, I can now trace it back to a dangerous spyware program: Apropos
I had no clue it was on my computer, and it is therefore the reason that my iTunes was working perfectly until one fateful day. Almost no spyware programs such as Search and Destory can detect it, and it does more than hide ur device manager. It slows down your computer greatly, and often disables LAN.
The fix is simple: http://swandog46.geekstogo.com/aproposfix.exe
Go there and follow these steps:
Step 1.
=====
Download these files to remove Apropos to your Desktop.
http://swandog46.geekstogo.com/aproposfix.exe
Step 2.
=====
Restart your computer and enter Safe Mode by pressing F8 on the keyboard repeatedly AFTER your BIOS loads and BEFORE Windows starts to load.
Step 3.
=====
Log into the account where the files you downloaded are on the Desktop. It should be an account with Administor privledges.
Step 4.
=====
//For AproposFix.exe:
Double click on AproposFix.exe and extract the files to your Desktop. Open that folder and double click on Run This.bat and follow the instructions. Restart the computer once you are prompted.
After that, your iPod should show up in iTunes ( this fix is for people whose iPod does not show up in device manager).
The culprit: An undetectable and notorious spyware program:
***Apropos***
Please post feedback, and I'll do my best to answer your questions.

Oh..with latest update..it removes these "dangerous"(LOL) files..

Final Cut Pro 7 not recognizing Sony HDV Deck on older 2008 version MacPro's

I am trying to connect a Sony HDV deck to Final Cut Pro version 7 on an older 2008 version MacPro. The problem was with the firewire mini port on the back i believe because i used a different deck which was the same model - but the only difference was it had a firewire 400 port instead of mini firewire port. Anyway, the deck with the 400 firewire port worked for logging and capturing, etc... (this also worked when i re-tested it on the 2008 MacPro) Im wondering if anyone else has had problems with the firewire mini port on the Sony HDV deck because it seems like almost every HDV deck i have with mini firewire has problems connecting to final cut pro or any editing application. I know now that the deck i had in question the mini port is not working correctly but is there a way to fix this or prevent the cable - deck from terminating the connection with the mini cable being used. I dont need an answer to the deck problem because i figured it out but just wondering if anyone has some insight on this deck problem. Thank you...
Kyle

>I dont need an answer to the deck problem ... just wondering if anyone has some insight on this deck problem
So you don't want an answer, just insight. OK, I'll give it a go. I've had several Sony VTRs with the 4pin Firewire port (proper name for what you refer to as "mini"), which is the same type of port that most DV and HDV cameras use as well. One of the main things you need to be wary of is plugging in and unplugging a Firewire cable while either the device or the computer is powered on. I know that marketing hype claims that Firewire is hot swap-able, but it really isn't safe to do so. The pins in both the 4 pin connector as well as the 6 pin connectors are very close together and if they aren't aligned exactly right with the socket, can easily cause arching and damage a Firewire port on either or both ends. Is that the kind of insight you were looking for?

Final Cut Serial number not recognized on Apple website

Hello,
When I try to log into the apple site to get the pro applications update for FC Studio, the system gives me this error message:
"The serial number you entered is not valid. See the materials that came with your product for the correct serial number. Use uppercase letters when entering your serial number."
I have tried every combination (dashes, no dashes, etc.) and I still cannot log in. I have already registered my version of FCP with Apple and cannot find any clear way to contact a human being at Apple to discuss this problem.
My friend is also having this problem and he just bought Final Cut Studio 3.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Make sure you're interpreting zeros and Os correctly. If the SN has an uppercase o and you enter a zero, it will not accept it and vice versa. Unfortunately, Apple uses a sans serif font for the SN, which makes it difficult to differentiate certain characters.
You can call AppleCare at 1-800-APL-CARE and explain your problem. Maybe if you offered to fax your serial number page from the FCS package, it would help. That's what I did for a support client of mine one time.

FOUND A FIX FOR COMPUTER NOT RECOGNIZING IPOD!!!

I have read several threads over the past week relating to the issue of iPods not connecting to the computer. The specifics were:
1. iPod not appearing on desktop
2. iTunes did not recognize iPod
3. Disk Utility and iPod updater did not register that iPod was connected
4. THE IPOD DID CONNECT TO ANOTHER COMPUTER!!!! (I would recommend trying this if you can, if it does connect to another computer you can isolate that it is the computer not the iPod causing the problem)
I really did not want to restore my iPod or reinstall system software, but after reading a suggestion about resetting PRAM, I thought I might as well give it a try, as nothing else was working. IT WORKED!!! And it was only at the cost of resetting my computer's clock, even better!!! If this solves your problem please post here to let me know.
If you dont know how to reset your PRAM check out this link:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238

Good call, resetting the PRAM and NVRAM did the trick for me! I got some message about a new firmware that I should install on my iPod, and then after that I got messages saying that my computer couldn't recognize my iPod, and that I needed to initialize the disk.
Your suggestions saved me!

Anyone know how to fix problem of not being able to import RAW files of Nikon D800 to Lightroom 5.2?

Hi there, am failing miserably to import NIKON D800 RAW files into Lightroom, have updated to version 5.2 which Adobe website says is compatible, but still no luck. Can import PDF files of Nikon D800, and my RAW files are fully accessible via Nikon proprietary software such as ViewNX2 and Capture NX2. Have Microsoft OS Windows 7 (if that helps..). Anyone any idea how to fix this problem? Grateful for any ideas, Ruud

Dear Jim, you have set me on the right track, thanks! I have updated my Nikon View NX 2 software (which includes the transfer software from camera to hard disk) and this has done the trick. Many thanks, also to Keith for showing interest in my problem. Downside remains that the files previously loaded with the old software remain 'un-importable', so if anyone still has a good tip how to try and correct that...
.. all ideas are welcome!!
But as said, many thanks for helping me solve the issue for future downloads

Trying to install final cut studio and not recognizing serial number

I am upgrading from final cut pro 5.1.4 with final cut studio 2. When I enter the studio 2
serial number it asks me for my original serial number from 5.1.4 and it tells me it's not
a valid serial number. I have checked over and over with my manual and the serial number
on the software in the computer and it still says the same thing.
Please help me thank you.

Well we are not together anymore but he was my boyfriend at that time. He was trying to do something really nice without realizing many things about purchasing something like this.
Actually, I have 2 serial numbers one for DVD Studio Pro 3 academic and one for final cut pro HD Academic Su. Is that what I am looking for ?

Final Cut Pro X not recognizing external hard drive

I'm trying to create a new event in FCPX and the drop down options on the side of where I want to save is not showing my external hard drive. I have used other external hard drives in the past and it works just fine.

Yeah I know but here is what´s happening step by step:
This is when I open it:
And then this:
Here you can see that the ext disk is showing in fcpx. But after 2 sec or so a loadbar pops up...
And then there is nothing to select. Only the internal drive. I do not understand it.
It´s never been like this before. But I tried a different harddrive (Lacie Rugged) and that was ok. So it´s only the main project disk(the mother, lacie blade runner) that fail to show inside fcpx.

How to fix problem with not all contacts on iphone syncing to iMac?

Working on my iMac (running 10.6.8) and trying to look up a contact that's in my iphone (running iOS 5.0.1) contacts, I noticed that at least one (maybe more) of the contacts I've added to the phone are not getting added to the contacts on my iMac when i sync "all address book contacts." What do I need to change or do to make sure that both locations have both sets of complete contacts. (Note - I most often add new contacts to the phone and expect them to transfer to the desktop when I perform a sync later.)
Your help is appreciated. Thanks.

Valerie...
Working on my iMac (running 10.6.8)
You need a Mac running V10.7.2 Lion in order to enable iCloud. That's why contacts aren't syncing with your iPhone.
What do I need to change or do to make sure that both locations have both sets of complete contacts.
You need to upgrade to Lion but first make sure your Mac meets Lion's requirements
You can download Lion from the App Store.

MSI GT60 - 2OD - Audio problems, Laptop not recognizing audio jacks and speakers

I tried to redirect the sound from my TV to the laptop in order to use my bluetooth headset.
It worked, but after turning my tv off, I continued using the headset normally.
But when I turned off my headset, the speakers stopped working and the laptop doesnt recognize any áudio inputs.
I already unninstalled the drivers, even installed my Win 8 from scratch, but nothing seems to work.
Does anybody have an idea of what is going on, or how i can fix it?

Latest driver version, I downloaded through the MSI website.
This is the first time that something like this has happened, the line is isn't set as default.
And also, when I open the Realtek HD Audio Manager, all the jacks are grayed,
At least my bluetooh headset still works.

Thought Firefox upgrade would fix problem of not being able to download YouTube videos. It did not. May I suggest that you use Explorer instead. Firefox live chat is not working either.

Firefox and YouTube do not work well together. USE EXPLORER INSTEAD to download videos.

Carolyn:
I just now did exactly as you recommended. Result? No change.
Even after trashing the files and restarting and everything else, the Activity Window and YouTube behave exactly as they did before.
(I had actually previously tried something very similar to your recommendation, and it didn't have any effect then either.)
In case it's helpful, here's an example of what one of the mystery components that load endlessly in the Activity Window is listed as:

MacBook Air OS X 10.8.5 Flash problem - install not recognized?

Got notice to update flash. Downloaded & installed update this past weekend, apparently successfully. Since then, all sites that use flash have told me it's out of date and I need to download the update! (I have even re-downloaded and re-installed, no change). I use Safari browser.
Help!

Most times, the security issues are Windows related, but there are risks for Mac users too... just not as severe or frequent. Regardless, it's best to update when needed.
The "Clean Install" isn't as tough as it looks. Those steps are written precisely in the order they need to be done, and I wrote them very specifically when it came to detail. IT takes about three minutes start to finish.
