I have the latest version of the free flip4mac download, but none of the others. Do I need all of them? When I go to the page to watch the webcast it freezes right before it starts to play... Thank you for the help. I really appreciate it!
Better safe than sorry! I like to cover all bases when it comes to viewing videos especially the streaming ones.
If you do not want to download all of them, just download Perian.

If you mean you subscribed to iTunes Match, you have to import your music into your iTuens library in order to add it to iTunes Match. iTunes Match (and iCloud) only works with iOS devices and computers. It won't work with your iPod Classic; you'll have to sync that with iTunes in order to add your music.

ITunes+ Songs not playing in Windows Media Player 11

So I got a new PC. On the previous PC i had been using windows Media player and playing songs purchased in iTunes+ in WMP.
So I transferred all my songs to an external HD. Then on my new PC I pointed the folder in WMP to the external HD and it imported all my music, except for my iTunes+ songs.
I have also purchased 2 new iTunes+ songs and they will not import into WMP or play in WMP.
What do I need to do?

Is it possible the problem is that on the previous pc I was running Windows 7 and on the new PC I'm running Vista Premium?

Emailing song to open with Windows Media Player

Does anyone know how to send a song from iTunes to someone as an email attachment that will be in a format Windows Media Player can open?
When I copy a song it always comes out as a Real Player file. I want it as a Windows Media Player appropriate file.

You're not going to be able to convert a m4a (which can be played in iTunes OR real player) file like that on the fly. Especially if it's a protected file that was purchased from the iTunes Store. If it wasn't purchased from the iTunes Store, you can find a converter program that will convert the files to WMA. Just google it -- I am sure they exist. From there, you can email it as a WMA.
Or, you could convert the song (if it's not protected) into an mp3 file within iTunes. The mp3 file could be email and opened within Windows Media player.

I am getting an error saying "Your computer doesn't seem to support any version of Media Player". When I look at my list of plugins I do see that I have Window Media Player Firefox Plugin 1.0.0.8. Why am I getting this error?

I am trying to load a page & I get the error "Your computer doesn't seem to support any version of Media Player". I then go to the tools & to add ons & to plugins. There under the plugins is Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin 1.0.0.8. It is enabled. My question is what does this error mean? Do I have the Media Player I need or not?

Notes:
1) Please use the code tags when posting code or JNLP/HTML. It helps to retain indentation and avoids asterisks and plus sings being interpreted as formatting marks. To do that, select the code/JNLP etc. and click the CODE button seen on the Plain Text tab of the message posting form.
2) That launch file is invalid. You might check it (and the project in general) using JaNeLA.
3) The only place that SimpleSerial class could be, that the JRE would find, is in the root of aeon.jar. Is it actually there?

Every time Firefox opened

Hi Lindsay.
The [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Windows_Media_Player MozillaZine "Windows Media Player" KB doc] explains installation and troubleshooting in-depth including a link to test the plugin, which should help you solve this problem.
Do note - if your Windows 7 OS is a 64-bit version, make sure that the plugin actually ends up in the Mozilla Firefox plugin folder (default '''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\plugins\'''). There are reports of the plugin (or actually Firefox) ending up in the wrong folder. 64-bit Windows systems has 2 Program Folder locations - "Program Files" for 64-bit applications, and "Program Files (x86)" for 32-bit applications.
Also note that the Windows Media Player is required to use the plugin - if WMP has been uninstalled from the Windows Control Panel, the plugin will not work.
Please let us know how above works out, and if we can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us to help you better, plus enables us to better help more users with similar problems.

I can't save CD-Text that reads with Windows Media Player

I'm trying to burn discs that will play on Windows Media Player showing title, artist, album name, etc., AND play in a stand alone home CD player.
It seems like I've tried almost everything and nothing's working.
I've saved my files as Windows PCM .wav, ACM .wav, WMA, MP3, and OGG and I can't get anything to work. I've burned them with RIFF tags AND MP3(ID3) tags. I've used up dozens of discs and I'm getting nowhere.
I even burned up more discs trying to burn wav, wma, and mp3 files with Record Now software.
I don't know what else I can do. Am I asking too much?
Thanks!

"nowhere have you mentioned whether you have checked to see that the CD-writer in your PC supports CD-text writing - not all of them do, and you should check this specifically."
That's an astute observation. I honestly don't know if it does, and I'll have to check with Lenovo to find out. Thank you for reminding me.
"If you want a couple of name-brand players that will read CD-text, then RealPlayer (from version 10) and Winamp (from version 5.31) will. If you want trusted ones, then I'd say just Winamp..."
I agree with you on Winamp being the better of the two...but, I was hoping for something like iTunes or QuickTime - I'd prefer something that is already loaded on most people's computers. Do you know which players are more likely to already be on most?
"http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/knowledgecenter/howto/albuminfo_how_to.aspx tells you how to get your album info into the Microsoft database."
Peter, I'm thinking that link shows someone how to add info to
their player, but it doesn't allow me to set the data for everyone who plays my CD. It's a
very informative link though. Thank you!
"There is nothing that Adobe can do to change that system."
They don't have to change that system; why can't they work with it? WMP
has the ability to display CD-Text so why can't the two of them get together and work this out? I don't see it happening any other way. I mean, if Adobe doesn't do it, we're pretty much sunk.
Thanks fellas, I've appreciated your comments and your help.

Why is my songs going to windows media player instaed of my itunes and how do you sort it

why is my songs going in to windows media player instead of my itunes and how do i fix it?

click on File right at the top corner of the screen and a menu appears from which you choose add file or folder.
I'd also suggest you change your preferences to keep your iTunes library organised, To do that choose Edit at the top of the screen, then click on preferences at the bottom of the list. There's a row of icons with words below them, you need the last one 'advanced'. Tick the box against Keep iTunes Media Folder Organised and the one against Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library - which will ensure any music or video you add to your computer by importing it into itunes will go into folders within the iTunes Folders on your computer.
I'd also suggest ticking the option further down that screen for 'warn me if itunes is not the default player for audio files' - I'm assuming you want to play your music via itunes and not windows media player so you need iTunes to be the default player.
Note though that when you have ticked the boxes iTunes will then go through your music library organising it so you will need to wait while it does that - doesn't take long.

Since loading Firefox I can no longer access video replays on Windows Media Player. I get a message saying the material has downloaded but that it can't be played for reasons that are not correct

I have been playing the video replays from Lone Star Park for years with no problem. I loaded Mozilla Firefox and now I can no longer access the replays. I get a message that data downloaded,Windows Media Player opens,but when I try to download, I get a message saying the video cannot be played. This is very important and I am thinking of removing Mozilla!

Hi there
I had the same problem and I found this answer to a similar question to ours, so I copied and pasted it for you
Reset the device by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time for approximately 10 seconds. After it resets the message will be gone and you can go to settings > icloud and put in your password.
That seems to be a bug with the password alert where it won't respond correctly sometimes.
Hope this helps

Syncing itunes to windows media player

I just bought some songs from the Itunes store, however I don't have an Apple anything, can my songs sync to my windows media player,to then sync to my MP3 Player?

Almost certainly these tracks will be standard AAC format with the file extension .m4a and not be protected by DRM. Therefore they will be usable by Windows Media Player when the right steps are followed.
Firstly Windows Media Player 12 as included with Windows7 will itself support AAC tracks and can even read the meta-tags from them including embedded cover art. For Windows Vista I don't know if WMP12 is available and whether it also under Vista support AAC, but I can say that it is possible to use WMP11 under Vista to play AAC files. See the AAC section on this page for information written by myself, http://thewelltemperedcomputer.com/SW/WMP/FileFormat.htm
Unfortunately even though it is possible to get WMP12 under Windows7 to also play Apple Lossless, Microsoft have as usual cocked up and even though Apple Lossless also uses the same MPEG4 file format, the same file extension and the same tagging format, it will not treat them as music (it treats them as 'other' media). It was possible do also add Apple Lossless properly with early versions of WMP i.e. 9, 10 and 11, as per my instructions on the above webpage.

Converting Windows Media Player Tunes to ITunes

I have hundreds of songs recorded on my Windows Media Player, but can not determine how to convert them all to my ITunes for down load to my IPOD Shuffle without doing them one at a time or by re-downloading the CD on ITunes. Can anyone help me?! Gosh, it took forever to download all of this music originally and I almost feint to think of having to download each CD again in ITunes, there must be a better (easier) way! Help!

iTunes cannot convert DRM protected files from Windows media player. Usually these are file puchased online.
However WMP has an option to import CDs with copy protection. I guess you have this option selected.
If the music you imported from CDs is copy protected and you want to use iTunes, you will have to import them again prefereably using iTunes.

Windows media player plugin is not working in firefox 4.if any one know what to do pls reply me

MY FRIEND SUGGESTED THIS TO ME
I HAVE TRIED THIS
BUT ITS WASTE
I CANT EVEN FIND ANYTHING AS
WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER
I have had the same problem since I installed Firefox 4.0.
Thank you for letting us know that The RealPlayer plugin conflict, was the source of this problem.
Another way to fix this (for good) is doing the following:
1) Click on "Tools">Options"
2) Click on the "Applications" tab
3) Search in the "Content Type" column, all the applications that start with the words "Windows Media." Click on the content that is listed to the right of each application's name and choose "Use Windows Media Player (default)."
By doing this, Firefox will avoid using the Windows Media Player plugin and will open the corresponding application directly with Windows Media Player.
I just did this and is working perfectly. Try it and let me know how it works for you.

I just saw this posted to the mozilla.support.firefox newsgroup in the topic,<br>
[http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.support.firefox/browse_thread/thread/f381fb349c4d109d/69bef0011240e600?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8 Windows Media Player will not install in Firefox 4] <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.

Windows Media Player plugin & Safari - Quicktime opens up???

Everytime I'm on a website and I click on a video clip that is a windows media player video file (wmv), the file opens up with the quicktime plug in - and the whole wmv won't play. I have to download the clip to see the whole thing in my Windows Media Player.
How do I set up Safari so it will play wmv clips with a windows media player plug in so I don't have to download a bunch of video clips that I just wanted to see on a website.

This is what you need flip4mac. Just go to the link and download it.

Windows Media Player in Mac OSX 10.4

I recently upgraded to 10.4 a few months ago, and before I did that, I had Windows Media Player installed on Saffari. When I Upgraded, it still worked, but when I upgraded my other Mac to 10.4, I tried to install Windows Media Player on Safari but it did mot work. My guess is that 10.4 does not recognize the .sitx format that previously worked on my 10.3. So is there another version of Windows Media Player that I'm just not seeing, or can I download another player for Safari?

Hi Tanner,
My guess is that 10.4 does not recognize the .sitx format that previously worked on my 10.3
Mac OS X 10.4 no longers comes with StuffIt Expander. You'll need to install that to be able to use .sitx files.

Embedded Windows Media PLayer With Non-Standard File Extension

I have embedded a windows media player in a asp.net web page, using the usual
<object> and <embed> tags. The video is served by an ashx (http handler). When I try to play the video, I usually (but not always) get an error message telling me that the file extension (ashx) does not match the file format.
This happens in IE (8, 9, 10, 11) and also in Firefox (latest) with the WMP plugin.
I know that the tags (with classid, etc) are correct because the media player displays and allows me to click the 'play' button.
The ashx returns the correct mime type (video/x-ms-wmv) and a valid file name (somevideo.wmv) in the response headers. I have tried content-disposition attachment and inline.
I have tried urls using 'http://', 'https://', and '//' (which I prefer)
If I put the url (including the .ashx) of the video file in the browser address bar directly, the video downloads and plays in the standalone media player.
If I modify the object tag to use a direct path to the video file (/somewhere/somevideo.wmv), it works - but I can't use this as a solution.
The same ashx serves up video and audio in various other formats with out any fuss - it just seems that the embedded windows media player doesn't like it.
This has been working for several years - I think this is some new behavior, though I can't identify what has changed, other than browser updates.
Any ideas on what could be causing this? Am I missing something simple?

Hi,
Tools>Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default"
Advanced tab of Internet Options>uncheck "Do not save encrypted files to disk"
f12>Networking tab, click the Start button, navigate to your page and observer the response header and content.
To determine if you page is being rendered in a x64 host (all IE versions and WaterFox, type
navigator.platform in the IE Developer tools Console tab,
Post questions about html, css and scripting for website development using MSIE browsers to the IE Web Development forum... WITH a link to your website.
