Need Help with Windows Media Plug-in

I like to use Safari to open espn.com's espn radio page to listen to it live which runs through Windows Media.
http://espnradio.espn.go.com/espnradio/radio?play=live
I tried to download Windows Media for Mac, which won't open on this Mac. I downloaded Flip4MacWMV which placed itself in the system preferences section.
In short, I can open the web page but can't hear the radio program. Can you give me some tips on how to activate this? It works just fine on my other computer, which runs system 10.3.5.

ESPN Radio is working for me as well. What happens if you try another browser, such as Firefox or Camino?

  • XM Radio Help With Windows Media Player

    Does anyone know how to get XM Radio to work within Safari? The Windows Media Player plug-in tries to connect but never does. I tried the Flip4Mac plug-in and got the same non-result.
    I got the AOL radio player to work but it does not offer all of the XM channels.

    Well, I just signed up for a 3 day trial at XM and listened to a couple of songs through Safari. I'm not certain which version of Windows Media Player you have installed. If you don't have version 9 then head over to Microsoft and download it. If you do have try re-installing it and see if that helps.

  • Need help with Windows on Bootcamp vs. Parallels

    Hello,
    I installed windows 7 on a boot camp partition of my hard drive. I also installed windows 7 on Parallels with the same activation key (afterwards).
    The activation key is legit, or at least should be, I bought it online.
    The issue I'm having after 30 days of use is this: The parallels version of windows is telling me my version of windows isn't 'genuine', I get a black background, but can still use windows and parallels fine.
    The boot camp version of windows... (the version I installed first) is running fine, no 'not genuine' messages.
    Here are my questions:
    1. Am I getting the error because I have 2 versions installed with the same key?
    2. The software I need to run is running better on parallels than on boot camp (the interface and resolution look more appropriate and it's just easier to use). I'd like to just delete the entire boot camp partition. Will doing so solve my issue with windows, or should I deactivate windows on that side first?
    3. If I should deactivate windows 7 on my boot camp partition, how do I do that?
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for the reply.
    I'm not running bootcamp through paralells so I have installed two copies.
    Can you tell me what the M$ IVR line is, do you just mean customer service?
    Something interesting is that when I checked my code with Microsoft it said that "The product ID number that you entered is not supported in the country that you have selected." Does this ring bells or mean anything to anyone? Does it mean the key was pirated, or just intended for sale in a different country? I bought it from a software retailer online, and I'm assuming it's legit because it runs fine on the bootcamp side. So I'm wondering if this error message could be related to the double install or what?
    Can someone provide me a link instructing how to delete the bootcamp partition? Is that a pretty straight forward process?
    Thanks

  • Need HELP with Windows on my iMac.  Thanks.

    I'm an experienced Windows user. I bought the iMac 20" Duo Core 2 (2.16ghz) because of the hardware and the design. I want to use Windows XP Pro (then Vista) almost exclusively.
    PROBLEM: Windows installed and worked PERFECTLY (without the Mac OS or Boot Camp. I also installed the Mac drivers for Windows. Everything went beautifully UNTIL I started installing the Windows drivers for my external firewire sound equipment. Then the computer wouldn't fully boot. Every manufacturer I spoke with concerning my external equipment said that they did NOT plan to update their drivers to use Windows on a Mac. They said that there are problems and issues with the new Duo Core 2 processor in a Mac running Windows. These are DRIVER issues that may never be addressed by individual equipment manufacturers.
    QUESTION: Do I need to reinstall the Mac OS and keep it updated in order to avoid conflicts with Windows' use of the Mac hardware? Or can I simply install Windows only, and try for workarounds?
    Thank you very much for your replies.

    Thank you, Eric, for your VERY helpful reply.
    I've reinstalled Windows XP Pro S2, and got the system up and running again.
    The problem I initially had was with the M-Audio Firewire Solo external soundcard. Once the driver was installed, the computer locked during booting. The M-Audio tech I spoke with was exceptionally knowledgeable, and he said they were working on updated drivers for both the Mac and the PC, but not for Windows on a Mac.
    The problem could be that the firewire port uses the same IRQ as the hard drive. Although there isn't technically a conflict, the firewire port could be interfering with the boot when it's connected to a phantom-powered unit. And this unit cannot be hot-wired. However, the computer locked simply upon installing the driver with no unit connected.
    I've decided to change over to a external soundcard that uses USB instead. I'm hoping this will solve the problem.
    I purchased this computer for digital audio recording in Windows. If there are more conflicts that I cannot workaround, I'm going to have to return it and get a PC-based Intel desktop system. I don't want to do that however. I really, REALLY like this machine. But I need it to work with my equipment.
    BTW, I've searched the other forums here on Apple.com. Several people have written in about the problems they've had with both the firewire and USB ports - using the MAC OS. So it's not just a conflict with Windows.
    I really appreciate your reply. Thanks again.

  • MDT - Need Help Adding Windows Media Player to Specific Deployments

    I'm using MDT in conjunction with WDS to deploy Windows 7 in my organization. I use the MDT Computers database to profile machines. (i.e. select certain applications to be installed to specific machines based on MAC address.) In my reference images I have
    removed all the components under Media Features, as most users do not need them. However, some users need Windows Media Player.
    In the Computers Database properties, under the Details section, I noticed a property called OSFeatures. I tried setting the value to MediaPlayback,WindowsMediaPlayer and just WindowsMediaPlayer, but Windows Media Player does not get installed. Am I not
    entering the value correctly?
    My goal is to be able to add Windows Media Player to specific machines.
    Thanks in advance

    Is the OSFeatures property not able to add WMP? The reason why I want to use it is because when I profile machines that need WMP, I can add the option to have WMP added just for that machine.
    If I can't use OSFeatures to install WMP, how can I add it back on a per-machine basis?

  • Windows 8.1 need help with Windows Updates and Start menu Or fix my old Windows Xp system

    My beloved windows Xp has gave up after many years of working well. It stopped working a few days ago after a lightening strike.
    I got this Windows 8.1 computer a few month ago  but it seems to have a problem. I stopped using it after could not get start menu to work and when back to my Windows XP system.
    First problem is the start menu is not there. I tried installing something and it says it will take control or something and screen goes black. I clicked canceled quickly in order not to get a virus.
    Where is the start menu?
    Second problem, Windows updates does not want to update because it needs Windows 8.1 update. This computer is already Windows 8.1. There I canceled it since it was mostly a virus. Now updates are not working.
    If those can not be fixed, how can i fix my Windows Xp to get it back. It does not turn on, I press button and nothing happens. Is this something easy to fix?

    Another user discovers that Windows 8.1 is not at all of what it should be.
    There is no Start Menu in Windows 8 or 8.1.  However, you can restore your desktop start menu with a very good freeware application: 
    Classic Shell
    Windows Update comes with Windows 8.1.  There is nothing special you have to do.
    It kind of sounds like you've been a bit too quick to download and run whatever you find on the Internet.  You should always research any software you're considering downloading/installing ahead of time.  Google it.  See what others say
    about it.  Ask on forums.  In order to use Windows effectively and safely you need to expand your knowledge and become a more sophisticated user.
    If you think your new system has become infected, you might want to consider Refreshing or Resetting it to a clean state, or at least visiting one of the anti-malware forums and getting some advice on cleaning it up.  But beware, a lot
    of "blind leading the blind" happens on forums.  Always try to read between the lines, and question what people say.
    You could consider leaving XP behind.  Its time has come and gone, and pretty much any newer version of Windows can actually give you better service than XP - once you get it tuned up.
    It's possible to make Windows 8.1 more functional than XP and about as functional as Windows 7, but it takes a fair bit of effort in reconfiguration and installation of some well-known 3rd party applications that are good (which, unfortunately, most
    on the internet are not).
    Good luck to you.

  • I need help with Windows 10 Technical Preview. No sound. Korean files. Screen Flashes

    I installed Windows 10 Technical Preview Yesterday. Took TEN hours!
    Now, I have NO SOUND. There are Korean files on my desktop. My screen flashes from blue to my desktop. It is SLOW. 
    I had Windows 8 before this. I bought this laptop brand new from a store in January of this year. 
    Can someone help me either fix the issues or help me get back to Windows 8?

    it came with windows 8.1 then, the windows 10 preview is still kinda early in the curve so it may have a few problems with your machine

  • K9N SLI Platinum MS7250 ver1.1 ... need help with Windows 7 install

    Hello,
    Having an intermittant issue with Windows 7 32bit.  During startup Windows 7 gets stuck at the logo screen.  Not always though.  Every 7-8th reboot it will make it past and go all the way into Windows 7.  I've tried all sorts of combinations of "ebabling/disabling".  This system ran XP professional for 3 years without any issues.  Currently, I have the most luck by connecting the keyboard and mouse to PS2 and leaving USB disabled.  This may not be the issue though.  Once I got Win7 to boot I performed driver updates etc. 
    If someone has suggestions please let me know.  I'm about to try the USB bios flash but have never done it before. 
    Thank you,

    Hi Guys,
    Thank you for the replies. 
    -  Yes it is a fresh install of Windows7 on a drive that originally had XP Pro
    -  If I boot into safe mode it does go into Win7 most of the time. 
    -  I posted on the MSI tech support page (http://support.msi.com/index.php) and the response was to upgrade the BIOS.  What do you think?
    -  I've been using this graphics card for three years and is nowhere near as powerful as what's out there now.  In fact all of the components are three years old except the RAM
    -  I tried the old RAM (2GB Corsair) and it also had the same issue.  Even at default RAM settings or otherwise.  Now I'm back to the 4GB Patriot Vipers.
    -  What is this capacitor problem people are referring to?  Is it a problem specifically on this model board? 
    Thank you..

  • Need help with window sizing in unix

    hi all,
    i am building an application that will run on a silicon graphics machine with unix. my application has a jframe with a jtabbedpane attached to it. when the application is launched the jframe is the size of the monitors resolution but the jtabbedpane is not. this is not the case on a windows machine. i am using toolkit to get the window size from the machine for the jframe. do i need to use this for the jtabbedpane as well. can anyone help me with this problem.
    thanks,

    The difference is sizes between platforms may be due to Font-size differences of the components in the tabbed pane which results in the overall size of tabbed pane being different on the two platforms.
    To get the tabbed pane to appear the same relative to the frame, you should explicitely 'setBounds' on the tabbed pane as well as size the frame.

  • Need Help with Windows 7 Certifications Manager - Can't log on easily

    I have to do a complete restore of my 7 Windows Home Premium OS. I downloaded all of the drivers, got everything up and running, but now whenever I use Firefox, the only browser I utilize, I always get the pop-up caution box that states "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?" I looked at where the default was set for that message, and it is set according to Windows' recommendations. Even though I have good virus protection (the complete Avast version), I am not comfortable with the thought of disabling the feature completely.
    I have no experience with certificates, but with the use of Windows Help, I was able to get to the program, but I found NO program with mozilla in the string.
    I think the problem is with a certification, but I have never had this problem before and would very much appreciate any assistance!
