Hi.
I just updated my windows comp. to itunes 6.5 or what ever the newest itunes is. But now when I open up my songs from 'My Music' in my documents, they all have the quicktime icon next to it. i some how think i didnt click on the "make itunes the default player" when i was installing the new itunes. does any one know how i can fix it and make itune the new defualt thing. thanks

Select "Edit", choose "Preferences", click the "Advanced" tab and then select the "General" tab. Lastly put a check mark next to "Use iTunes as the default player for audio files". This should solve your problem.

There is no setting in the iPhone to set another default music player. The default is Music. If you are using another application, you are at the mercy of how that application operates as far as what occurs when it stops or errors out. The car is looking for music to play.

Error Mesage: Not authorized to make iTunes default player

I am the one and only administrator. Cannot make iTunes default player using latest version. Please advise.
Dell 8400 Windows XP

Go to Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs. On the left,
you can set Program Access and Defaults. In that,
choose Custom. There you should be able to change the
default media player to iTunes.
Tried it but defaults back to "Use my current player."
I get error message: "You do not have enough privileges for this operation." Thanks for your help. Any advise?

How do i stop my ipod touch from reverting back to the default music player everytime i get back in my car?

The only place I use my Ipod Touch is in my car that has an iPod connection and the steering wheel controls, but I mostly listen to audio books with the audible app. Everytime I get in my car instead of the iPod just picking up where it left off with the audible app it picks up playing whatever was last listened to with the default music player. How can I stop this? Although sometimes it will pick up with the audible app where it stopped when I last used the car (the time I spend with it not playing in the car doesn't seem to make a difference.). Just a little side question is there anyway to get rid of the newstand app, safari, messaging, facetime, gamecenter and all those other app that apple forces upon it's users?

There is nothing yo can do to return to the app you want.
You can't delete the apps that came with the iPod. Except for NewsbStand, you can put the apps you do not want into one folder and move it to the last screen

Default Music Player

I've updated to jelly bean. Is there a way to have google play as my default music player instead of the music hub (version)?

Yes, from your homescreen, press menu>settings>applications, select the all tab at the top, scroll down to music hub, then select clear defaults. The next time you try to play music, your phone should ask you what you want to use and you can check the make default box and then choose Play Music.

Default music player on

I just bought the Zen but before I had the Nomad Zen Xtra or whatever it was called. With the Nomad, I used Creative MediaSource to organize my library, synch music with my player, and listen to music from the computer. Now that I have the Zen, I must use the Zen Media Explorer for synching and organizing. But, is that supposed to be the default music player on the computer (instead of Windows Media Player?)? And what is that Zencast Organizer?
And one more question - how come in the Zen Media Explorer some of my music folders are listed just under Music, while a majority are in Music >> My Music? It won't let me move them all to just Music.Message Edited by pixelbabii on 2-2-200702:08 PM

Changing E6 default music player

Hi
Have installed QuasarMx on my Anna E6 and would like to have as my default music player but when I go to settings|application settings|default applications and try andchange the dafault for playing music only the Nokia Music player is listed.
Any ideas?

Try to install the new music player on your device(C, D) and not on the SD Card.
Then Nokia should 'see' the music player better.
Hope it will work

I want to make iTunes my default music player + P.S.

RE: music &/or video playing on my iMac
What is the path that I must take to find out where to set iTunes as the default music/video player? I believe that I have QuickTime at this point, but have learned that for the music player, iTunes is the preferred application. One can import, organize, browse, plan, and burn all in the same application. So.... I am going to change over but need to know where it is. I know it is in System Preferences but can anyone steer me in the right direction? Thank you.
P.S.: I now have music automatically starting and looping on a page in my website. I am going to add more music to my pages, too.

Hi Lorna...
Still up, huh? Me too.
.......... Lorna says ................................................
I was up late last night, though not as late as the time I went to bed at 6 AM. And then woke up at 9 AM.
I don't think you need to do anything really to have
iTunes handle your audio files. Keep in mind that in
general, iTunes=audio, and QuickTime player=video.
I believe that OS X is already set up along these
lines and the appropriate application will open up
according to file types and file extensions....
.......... Lorna says ................................................
But James every now and again I deal with some sort of programlet or another, and it asks me whether or not I want to have THAT program as my default handler of (whatever). In the past (but probably prior to Tiger) I have accepted the idea because it seemed sane and probably appropriate. I know that in the past, it was a matter of choice between iTunes and QuickTime.
This
is not to say, though, that the occasional podcast
or ITMS video file can't be played in iTunes and
that QuickTime player can't also open up audio
files.
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Aha. My podcasts come in thru iTunes. That is how I accidentally discovered (the other night) that I had probably clicked onto someone's podcast icon. It had lovely music on it.
Ultimately, everything is part of the same
thing. That's what is so easy about using
Macs...things just work.
So no worries, Lorna.... I have added some audio to
my website, too....dedicated to you, Lorna... It's
just baby sounds, but hey...it's SOUND!
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Those sounds are very sweet. Baby squeals are always heart tuggers. Innocent, vulnerable creatures always have a straight path to the heart, and thus so do the little creature sounds that they make.
I am soon going to work on my second song for another page. As you know, I began it last night.
(The only semi-nightmare scenario I see is me not being too acquainted with the html page, and maybe sneezing and my mouse erases data on the page and everything on that page gets wiped out. I am a little bit (a lot) afraid of messing up changing the html on the new page. 8-( 8-( 8-( And Apnewbie is somewhere in the mountains with his son. HahahahahahaHAHAHA!
OK. Back to serious controlled business here.

How do I make iTunes my default music player?

Cannot make itunes default player

Whenever I try to make itunes my default player there is an error message saying I do not have the proper privellages to access it. Because of this I cannot import CDs to itunes. Whenever I try to download itunes 5 there is also another error as well.

I had the same problem as well. I tried opening my other mp3 player (musicmatch) and deselected the boxes that told it to associate itself with various music files. Other software might also have a box that tells it to be the default player for music.
It didn't work at first but it did after a while, possibly after I rebooted (or tried the steps below - I can't remember =P)
You might also try right-clicking on an mp3 or other music file and select "Open With" and then "Choose Program." Select or browse to iTunes and there should be a checkbox that will tell it to use iTunes every time or something.
I'm not sure what's causing the download problem, maybe something to do with Internet Explorer or your firewall blocking software downloads?

ITunes Preview - Music Player

Hey all,
as a web developer I felt like being struck by a lightning when first seeing the iTunes Preview implementation. The music player, the blue round player, impressed me a lot, it is so simple, but yet so different to all other music player implementations out there. So first of all, well done Apple!
Now of course, I was trying to find a similarly cool web music player, but couldn't find one. Does anyone know of a web music player that acts just like the one on the iTunes Preview pages?
I have seen similar players out there, (ie. here: Sam Attwater when going to album, or here: Musikagentur when going to "Künstler" and then selecting "Musik") but I have not found a single developer of such a player. Can anyone help me out on this one?
I know this is a bit off topic, but as we all love the great style and usability of Apple products, it would be nice to spread that technology and make the entire web a nicer and better place.
Any help is highly appreciated!
Best,
René

Select "Edit", choose "Preferences", click the "Advanced" tab and then select the "General" tab. Lastly put a check mark next to "Use iTunes as the default player for audio files". This should solve your problem.

hi y'all!
what happens if you go into the "set program defaults" area of your Add/Remove Software, and toggle the default media player settings in there a few times?
(i'm not sure if this actually works, but i keep suggesting it to people and the threads keep going silent ... so i figure it might be worth a shot.)

Default music player equaliser

Hi all, I'm new to these forums so please forgive me if this topic has already been raised. I have the 5230, a great phone and a major upgrade to anything that I've had in the past. I'm quite an audiophile so am stressing the limits of the built in music player, I've noticed something that annoys me slightly though: the graphical equaliser, along with the stereo widening effect and the loudness function only work when playing MP3 files. They are totally incapable of altering the sound of MP4 and WMA. Has anyone else noticed this bug?
Best,
Steve

Hi,
you just go to Nokiacare and tell them to 'FLASH' the software again. But you'll lose ur all datas. you can backing up from mobile phone to ur PC b4 going to nokiacare.

How do I make iTunes my default music player instead of Quicktime?

First let me say I'm not very tech savy so this could all be something simple that I'm overlooking but iTunes used to be my default player on my mac but now when I try to play music files from other devices such as a flash drive it prompts Quicktime to start up. Any ideas on how to change this back to iTunes?

Select a document in the Finder, choose Get Info from the File menu, click on Open With, select the desired application, and press the Change All button.

Stopping iTunes being default music player

I have several players, such as RealPlayer, QuickTime and VLC, capable of playing mp3, AAIF and other types of music files already on my computer. Whenever I double-click one of these files, it is always iTunes that opens and starts playing the file. How can I prevent iTunes being the default player?

Select a document, choose Get Info from the File menu, specify the correct application under Open With, click on Change All, and confirm this action.
