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?

  • H.264 not playing in Windows Media Player

    OK, so I've exported a 720p video to H.264 format. The resultant .mp4 plays just fine on my Mac where it was created, in both QuickTime and the VLC Player. It also plays on another person's Mac (I'm assuming QuickTime) just fine.
    But two people who have Windows machines cannot get the file to play in Windows Media Player. I don't think they've tried another player, but that's irrelevant because I need my output video to be able to play in WMP.
    Is H.264 a poor choice in this case? That's always been my go-to format. I thought .mp4 was a universally playable format.
    Thank you.

    It depends on which version of Windows Media Player they're using. If they're still on XP, it's very possible it won't work.  Anyone using Windows 7 or 8 should have no problem.  (And perhaps it does need to be said, but everyone should be using either 7 or 8 by now.)
    At least one of them was on Windows 7.
    Is there a better format I should be using for PP export other than H.264?

  • Why does my Encore DVD not play in Windows Media Player v.11

    My DVD's play properly in players and from various other DVD Software but not Windows Media Player v.11.  Most people I give my DVD's to view them on business computers, that only have WMP on them.  Is there a way to build an Encore DVD that will allow them to play in WMP?

    You can always build a Flash "DVD". Other than that you may be looking in the wrong place. Microsoft has neatly avoided any MPEG-2/DVD licensing and merely uses the respective libraries of otehr DVD software on your system, so when no such thing is installed, it never works.

  • .MOV exported to .AVI with QTpro fails to play in Windows Media Player

    I have a .MOV file that I converted with 7.1.6 of QTpro to a .AVI ( DV/DVCPRO - NTSC / Best / 4:3 ) ( uncompressed 48kHz / 16bit / 2 channel ). The converted .AVI file will not play in Windows Media Player or load in Premiere. The converted .AVI will play in QT. I have previously converted .DV files to .AVI without any problems. If I load the converted .AVI with VirtualDub it says there is a missing "index" and precedes to read the entire .AVI file to "re-create" the "index".
    Can anybody offer any clues as to what is going wrong?

    Are you referring to a Lynda.com Compressor tutorial or one of their many PPT tutorials.
    I agree that 10 Mbs is a nice general quality level – depending on your footage, of course – the content, the lighting, etc. WMV is probably the safest – although MP4 should be good as well,
    Hard to be more specific except to say, Test. A preset that works well for one movie may look not-so-great applied to another.
    Take a short, representative section and encode. Project the output file and see what you think.
    Good luck.

  • Video from Iphone will not open in windows media player

    I was able to import videos from my iphone 5c into windows vista, but the will not play in windows media player.
    How can I play the video?

    Rodney-- you're unclear what exactly you did. If you encoded a dvd, your computer's dvd player SHOULD play it. Unless your pc doesn't HAVE a dvd player.
    If you burned a data dvd of your fcp project, unless you have quicktime on your pc, you won't be able to play it.
    Investigate flip4mac, which allows you to export wmv files.

  • Exported media cannot be played by Windows  MEdia Player

    Hi,
    I have loaded in a CS3 project into Adobe MEdia Encoder (I would have eimported it into Adobe CS4 first but it doesn't work- it just loads the project and when it's done, nothing appears). I selected the "Sequence 1" of the project and started the Queue. When it was done, the resulting file does not play on Windows Media Player. I tried loading it into VLC but I get an error about missing a decoder "v210".
    I'd appreciate any help with this.
    Thanks!

    hi derek,
    In CS3, you can find this option by clicking "File>Export>Adobe Media Encoder". In the AME UI that comes up, you need to click on format drop down for the MPEG2DVD format. There, you can use the preset named "NTSC High Quality". since your footage is only 24 minutes long, you can increase the "bitrate" under "video" pane. Make sure that the output size does not exceed the DVD limit.
    To burn it on DVD, you can use Encore. Import the just exported file into Encore DVD project and burn it to a DVD.
    If you face any problem, Do get back to this thread.
    thanks,

  • Can songs play in windows media player?

    Hey I just downloaded some music in itunes and i have a question is it possible for my music to play in windows media player? if so what do i have to do to get it to play?

    Do you mean you purchased songs in the iTunes Music Store? If so, unless it is one of the iTunes Plus songs, then it has Apple-proprietary DRM protection, and your answer is no.
    If you plan to use your music in both Apple and non-Apple players, avoid the iTunes Music Store. Preferably, make your purchases at stores that sell only unprotected files, such as amazon.com.

  • Problems with songs i downloaded with windows media player!!!!(zen tou

    If I try to play songs i downloaded with windows media player My zen touch(20Gb) freezes and won't shut down:angry:. I have downloaded the latest firmware so that can't be the cause of the problem.

    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.

    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.

  • E3000 Media Server not seen by Windows Media Player (v 12.0) on Win 7

    I've enabled the Media Server on my E3000 router.  My PS3 can see the server and play media from it by my PCs can't!
    I'm using Windows Media Player v 12.0 on Windows 7 and some older version on Windows XP and it's my understanding that the Media Server should appear under the "Other Libraries" section but it does not.
    Am I doing something wrong? Is there a bug in the E3000 firmware (I have the latest as of this date) or is the Media Server simply not compatible with Windows Media Player?
    If it's an incompatibility issue, can someone please point me to a compatible media player for Windows 7?
    I did read a post about a firmware upgrade on the 4200 that broke the media player, but I don't know if such a problem exists for the E3000.
    Thank you,
    Martin.

    This is what you can try in getting the Computer to see the media server on the E3000:
    (Obviously make sure you have the media server enabled on the router and at least one folder shared....and make sure you have scanned the folder(s))
    1) Turn your computer on.
    2) Disconnect your external usb drive.
    3) Pull the power on the E3000.
    4) Connect the external usb drive.
    5) Plug the power back into the E3000.
    Then see if that works or not.

  • How to get quicktime files to play in Windows Media Player...

    Hello. I've got a Mac and use iMovie to create vid's. I need them to export in a format that can be played in Windows Media Player on a PC. I've installed WMV (even bought the Studio version) and they were converted to mp4 files. They play great on the PC using Quicktime in the mp4 format, but when opening them into windows media player I keep getting a codec error. Is there anyway to get around this? Unfortunately, they have to be played on a PC in media player to be presented. Thanks for your time once again!

    Your bought WMV? Do you mean Flip4mac? If you just mean the ancient Windows Media Player for Mac, it won't work.
    Reading this set of directions you export to WMV and name the file with a WMV extension:
    http://www.flip4mac.com/pdfs/Flip4MacWMVQuickStart.pdf
    If you don't have Flip4mac, that is, the $50 version, not the $29 version, you can't export, just import.

  • I just purchased Premiere 13 and the video files won't play in Windows Media Player. I have audio but no video. What can I do? I have Premiere 12 and everything works fine with it.

    What can I do?

    Bonan
    Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 64 bit
    What are your export settings for this finished video from Premiere Elements 13?
    For example - are you using
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVChD
    with Presets = MP4 H.264 1920 x 1080p30
    or something different like
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    MPEG
    with Presets = MPEG2 1920 x 1080i30
    or something different ....
    We are going to have to get at your export settings which gets us to the properties of the finished video that you are trying to play in Windows Media Player.
    If you take your finished video from Premiere Elements 13 and import that into a new Premiere Elements 13 project with Add Media/Files and Folders,
    does it import into the new project. And, when the video is in the new project, does it display video and have audio in the Edit area monitor?
    We need more details of the properties of the finished video. Knowing that you have no problems with this matter in Premiere Elements 12 and that
    the finished video plays in CyberLink are important, but they do not help to figure out what is happening in 13 so that it does not happen again.

  • How do I make iMovie projects play in Windows Media Player?

    How do I make movies that I have created in iMovie play in Windows Media PLayer having been transferred by memory stick or email? This would be ideal to know because my school's computers are PCs and our main computer is an iMac.

    By far the easiest way is to have the school install the free QuickTime Player (Windows Version) from Apple.
    Otherwise, you can buy a version of Flip4Mac that will enable you to do the conversion using QuickTime Pro or MPEG Streamclip.
