Downloading stuffit expander for windows media player 9 download

I want to download windows media player 9 to my mac mini b/c a lot of the emial files i get are .wmv not .wav files and of course Quicktime Player does not support .wmv files. So of course i need window media player but in order to download windows media player, i have to download stuffit expander to expand the files. But i am having issues with stuffit downloading to my computer. It is saying "mouting failed". Can someone please help me out??? It would be greatly appreciated.

I'm very new, but installed Stuffit just a few days ago without issue. Since no one else has jumped in, all I can offer are my guesses, but I guess that's more than you've got so far:
If you do a "Get Info" in the desktop, are the "Ownership and Permissions" (click the "details" arrow below it) such that you have read and write permissions to the desktop? Also, by now, if you haven't tried re-downloading it, I'd do that. My StuffitEXP10.dmg file is: 8,665,578 bytes in size for reference. Hope you get it squared away.

Downloading plug-ins for windows media player

i'm a brand new mac user -- bought a macbook less than 24 hours ago. i have not been able to trouble shoot installing plug-ins for windows media player. if anyone can advise, i would be most appreciative.

Windows Media Player for Mac was discontinued more than a year ago by Microsoft. They recommend using the free Flip4Mac player <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/otherproducts/otherproducts.aspx?pid=windowsmedia >.
A good addition to your arsenal of media players would also be the stand-alone VLC Media Player <http://www.videolan.org/vlc/>. It's a Swiss Army Knife of media players.
Hope this helps!

Can't download plug in for windows media player. Have used download site and it says it worked, but plug in is not showing up on my list of plug ins.

I tried to hear a conference call on a website. Got a message, needed windows media plug in. Checked my plug ins, no windows media. Read tutorial on firefox support. Clicked on download. Got a window that asked for repair or change. Tried repair, then change. Need better directions on how to finish download. Got message download successful, but after closing firefox and reopening, still no plug in for windows media in list of plug ins. Went to site and could not hear conference.
Read support forum. Message about using about:config. Tried this, typed in about: config in start menu, but didn't see anything that looked like I could change to true like message said.
solved by opening internet explorer and going to website and listening to conference call on windows media player. There was a message saying click here if you want to enable media player. Did so, heard conference.
Tried using chrome. Got to hear conference yesterday. Today, there was same message about needing plug in when I tried to follow instructions to get plug in, it was as confusing and useless as firefox. The bottom line is I tried to do everything set forth in firefox's forum suggestions and can't get the windown media plug in to show up in my list of plug ins and can't hear conference calls on firefox.
Chrome did say they were working on getting plug in available at chrome store.
I agree with comments that I was able to go to web sites and hear calls before firefox made an update that removed my windows media plug in. The simple download fix, presumeably from windows, does not work, apparently because firefox can't find the fix. That is not the user's fault, and it looks like windows tried to provide a fix, and firefox won't recognize it.
Bottom line, it is easier to use another browser, than try and get the windows media player plug in installed on firefox. What good is a browser, if you can't hear a call on the website that the browser takes you to? Please make it easy to install the windows media plug in on firefox. Thank you..

Firefox can find plugins in several locations, but Firefox 21 changed the location of the "shared" plugin folder so older installers like the Microsoft Windows Media Plugin no longer drop the DLL file in the correct location.
There apparently are two ways to address this:
(1) Change a Firefox preference so that Firefox checks the old location. Here's how:
(i) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(ii) In the filter box, type or paste '''plugins''' and pause while the list is filtered
(iii) Double-click '''plugins.load_appdir_plugins''' to switch its value from false to true.
This will take effect after you restart Firefox.
(2) Copy the plugins folder to the new location. Here's how on Win 7 64-bit:
Open a Windows Explorer window to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
Right-click and copy the '''Plugins''' folder
Double-click the '''browser''' folder to open it
Right-click and paste
Right-click the new copy of '''Plugins''' and rename it to '''plugins'''
After restarting Firefox, the plugins in that folder should now be available.
''Edit: I suggest just doing #1.''

There is no Windows Media player plugin for any browser on Android. If you are lucky download the file and see if any of media players on the system can play the file.

Streaming Video for Windows Media Player?

I have a website with steaming video that only opens in quicktime and I need the video to also open in Windows Media Player for people who only have access to a PC and do not want to deal with Quicktime downloads. Does anyone know how to do this on a MAC? I use FCP 5, Compressor, ect.

You are going to need to have two versions of the video file. One for Mac Quicktime users and one for WIndows Media Player users.
WMV Studio Pro looks like it could meet your needs.

However you will need a Windows Media Server to stream the WMV file otherwise it will act as a download only.

DRM for Windows Media Player on the ipod

My ipod is worthless, if it can't play files with DRM for Windows Media Player. My library, that offers this files for download says, it would cost 50.000 dollars to provide also ipod-compatible files. Because they can't spend this money, I will need a new mp3-player!

The specs for the iPod (box, website) are pretty clear about what formats it supports. Unfortunately, protected WMA files are not supported.
If the rights you have for those files includes burning them to an audio CD, you might want to do that.

EXPORT LONG FILES IN 1080p for Windows Media Player

Hello, need some help in exporting and encoding some large files from Premiere CS6.
We have 4 Sequences, each totalling 45minutes in length and in 1080p (ProRes422).
We need to export and encode for Windows Media Player as quickly as possible.
Looks like each export is going to take over an hour from Premiere as "Match Sequence Settings"
-keep in mind there is NO AUDIO.
Once it's out of Premiere as an MPEG, I can transcode to any format. Ultimately WMV would be optimal,
but we need to transcode the MPEG into a MOV file before 'Episode' will accept it, just to make the WMV files.
Target files: (4) 1080p Windows Media Player compatible files
Does anyone have a better workflow workaround? Midnight hour and need help!
Thanks in advance,
Dan

Thanks Jim, I can't export to WMV out of Premiere or Media Encoder. I use Episode to make my WMV files, and since Episode doesn't take MPEG in from Premiere (sigh)
I have to first make them in Quicktimes..
But yes! Anything Windows Media Player can handle... should I just go with the 5GB MPG files? No way for me to test, I'm on a Mac and these are playing on a PC
thanks for your help

Plugin for Windows Media Player is not working with Firefox 4 on Windows 7

I updated my Firefox to the latest version 4 yesterday, but since this time seems plugin for Windows Media Player not working anymore. When I visit some website with embedded video - like [http://www.ta3.com/sk/live this] - the window with WMP is not displayed and no video is playing. The website reports: You don´t have any plugin for playing of this video.
I reinstalled the plugin for WMP several times - with no success. This problem is on all webpages with embedded video for WMP. The installation of WMP plugin is successfully finished, but no video is playing. I checked the “plugins“ folder in the installation directory of Firefox and everything seems to be OK. Where is also the problem? Please, help me with solving of this problem...
My operating system: Windows 7 (64-bit)

I just saw this posted to the mozilla.support.firefox newsgroup in the topic,<br>

''Just for the record, the extension that conflicted with Windows Media Player is named: Real Player Browser Record Plug-In 14.0.2''
<br>..... so try [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] to see if a Firefox extension is conflicting with the WMP Firefox plugin.

I downloaded and installed the plugin fix for Windows Media Player 11. Program installs says finished, but no plugin showing in firefox. I'm using Vista Home Edition. How can I get plugin to work?

I'm using Firefox 5.0 on a desk top.

Downloading applications (ex. Windows Media Player)

I've tried to download applications that are said to be made for Mac OS X, but a lot of them I have trouble installing. for example, I have tried to installed Windows Media Player for OS X but after it downloads the file, when I click on it to download it says there is no specific application specified to download the file. This comes up a lot and I don't know what to choose. Any suggestions?

Please search the discussions before posting, as this question has been covered dozens of times in the past.
In order to open the WMP download, you need to download and install Stuffit Expander, available free from Stuffit.com

Windows media player download problem

I cannot download windows media player 7 (appropriate for my OS 9.2) because I get the message that I.E. does not know how to handle the download. All I seem able to get is an indecipherable file. I trashed all the old Windows Media Player stuff I could find before I tried to download this last time, to no avail. Any suggestions?

I am not sure why it can't do video. Wrappers (e.g., Quicktime, AVI, etc.) contain audio and video encoded in various and different forms. The newer video forms are probably not supported in WMP7 whereas the audio is probably still encoded using some older format that is.
Those of us still using OS9 have to face that our OS is getting left behind. I am not sure that WMP was ever all that great for video anyways since in the OS9 era computers were only barely able to truly handle video. I deliberately recently upgraded to only an intermediate age system (Quicksilver dual 800) so I could still run all my OS9 software in a happy native environment (OS9 boot) but also be able to boot OSX with newer software to be able to access newer media forms.
In OSX you can easily play WMV files using the free VLC software. However, I am not sure if the newest version will work with 10.1 -- kind of the same thing you are finding with OS9. Even OS10.1 is getting old now so I would jump to 10.3.9. Anyway, I don't think there is much you can do about getting the video to work since a lot of us experienced the same thing, so it's Media Player 7 and not your computer.

Can't download album art from Windows Media Player

Just got my very first mp3 player (Zen 6g) and I'm having trouble getting windows media player to recognize my cd info. When I rip Lord of the Rings: Return of the King soundtrack it shows up as "unknown" in WMP. When I try to "find album info" I get a message saying "cannot display web page". Do I need to download WMP again to fix this? I'm not very computer literate and I'm losing my patience very quickly. Thanks for any help.

You can manually enter the track and album information if you want, if the automatic way isn't working. Where you connected to the internet when you clicked on Find Album Info? It connects to a database to collect the information about the CD, it could be there was a problem with the internet connection, or your connection is blocking those checks.
Are you doing this at home or in work? If at home, do you have a firewall or any other internet security set up?

Why does my HP laptop download all my music windows media player, HP connected music player, and itunes, when I only open it in itunes?

My HP lap top downloads all my music to the windows media player, my itunes, as well as HP connected. Is this taking up 3 times the space on my computer as it would if it only just used one? I only want music on my itunes, but it puts it in all 3.

when I go to the youtube, the WMP pauses the music by itself, and when I close the youtube, the WMP resumes the music byt itself!
