Play Memories Crashes

Help! I have nothing but trouble with Play Memories.... Currently I get "Browser has stopped working".If it does work, none of the buttons have any words or graphics.  All dialog boxes are blank! This program is plagued with issues.  Is there any fix in sight?  I regret my Cybershot purchase.  I cannot download pictures wirelessly and PMH and PMO are worthless.  There has to be an alternative that I can use to still utilize the wireless transfer and avoid this terrible piece of software. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing.  Done the Setting initialization tool (had to look for a screen capture on-line because all text was missing form the tool). Any help out there???? Running windows 8.1

Hi sspychal,
We can feel you're frustration concerning this issue. We recommend moving the images to a new folder and deleting them from where they're currently saved in to. The "browser has stopped working" error message happens when some data in your files are not being recognized by the software. 
After moving the files, initialize the PlayMemories Home software again. If the issue with the interface is fixed, add the new folder into the program. You can do so by going to the File tab, click on Add folders and check the box beside the name of the folder.
If the issue with the dialog boxes are unresolved by initailizing, uninstall and reinstall the program and add the folder again.

  • Alternatives for play memories

    The play memories software seemed to have missed some quality checks. It won't install on fairly standaard and clean MS Windows 7 laptop. It crashes and burns with message:"Cannot continue the PlayMemories Home installation because 'PMB.msi' installation failed. Try installing PlayMemories Home again.0101-1008-1603" Software version is PMHOME_4301DL.exe Are there alternatives for using this software? Can be paid. The software should be working. That is a bottom line requirement.

    Hi eing,
    Welcome to the Sony Community!
    The error may occur when the firewall and antivirus program of your computer are not allowing download of new programs. We recommend disabling both your firewall and your antivirus when installing PlayMemories Home.
    You can also try to download PMH in safe mode:
    Copy the software to a folder on the computer hard drive.
    Turn off the computer.
    Start the computer in the Safe Mode.
    Locate the folder on the computer hard drive where you copied the program files.
    Click the INPUT.EXE or SETUP.EXE icon to begin the software installation.
    Restart the computer.

  • Can I upload to Amazon Cloud Storage using the Play Memories Direct Upload app?

    A note in the app manual says you can add network services directly from the Play Memories Apps page, but I don't see anything indicating how.

  • When I start play memories (4.0.01) "Browser has stopped working" appears.

    When I start play memories (4.0.01) "Browser has stopped working" appears in a popup overlaying the
     PlayMemories Home. Popup also requests you close the program, making this version of PlayMemories
    unuseable! Prior versions worked. I am running a current version of Windows 7 ultimate.

    Hi jkrad4130,
    The My Pictures folder is the defautl folder where the software gets all the files from so you can view and edit them. If you want to add other folders containing your media files from earlier imports, just click on File, Add folders and select the folder you want the software to manage. I would also suggest backing up your files to another device, if you have any.

  • Play Memories on Windows Vista

    Just recently I have had problems with my play memories program. Once I opened it, it would say "browser stopped working" and then would close the program. After some searching I eventually uninstalled play memories and reinstalled with a now up to date version. Didn't help. It would be ok on the first initail installation, and then the same browser issue. I have don't an uninstall a couple of time, same reasults. I have Windows Vista. Any suggestions.

    Check you are using a version of the client that works ok on Vista (5.0.02.0090). Then turn off the firewalls and confirm that these are causing your problem. If it still does not work then look at the config on the vpn router/firewall/concentrator. Could be missing routes back to the subnet allocated to the client. There are many reasons for it not to work ;-)

  • Playing DVD Crashes MBP (no matter what dvd player software I use)

    Current specs:
    OSX 10.6.6
    2.8 GH Core 2 Duo
    8GB DDR3 RAM
    512MB GeForce 9600M GT
    I first got my mac book pro from a friend and did a fresh install of OSX. I dont believe I ever tried to play any dvd's on it until now (months later).
    Originally when I got installed, I went through and deleted a lot of the default mac apps using appzapper that I didn't want cluttering up my install, and that included "DVD Player".
    Fast forward a few months, I try to play DVD in vlc and it crashes vlc. I cant open the file on the disk directly, nor can i just go to "open disc". if i click it it spins up and then it stays at zero and wont play. If i try to view the file right on the dvd with vlc it either crashes or plays a garbled 2-10 seconds and then crashes
    I ended up figuring this was because i deleted dvd player and must have deleted some codec or something along with it... after googling i remember people saying they deleted dvd player and had problems. So i got Pacifist and installed dvd player directly onto the computer
    Same issue, vlc crashes, and now when i put in a dvd, DVD Player stops responding immediately. if i start up dvd player first with no disk in, it loads fine. when i put the dvd in it just stops responding and wont play.
    so far I have
    1. deleted preferences in dvd player
    2. I'm POSITIVE it's not the dvd. i just watched the dvd in my friends older mac laptop. Likewise, every dvd i rent from redbox will do this so i know its not just this particular dvd
    3. CD's load just fine from the player, just not dvd's
    4. ive tried changing the display interlace quality from the view menu in dvd player
    5. I tried making a new admin account and playing it with dvd player from there and the same thing happened, just stopped responding
    6. I just tried zapping PRAM and NVRAM (command option P + R), still no dice
    7. Okay, i just tried opening in VLC media player with 'no dvd menus' and it didnt crash.. it still didnt play but it at least allowed me to see the error output (see down below the post)
    The only thing i can think of is i somehow corrupted some basic fundamental/hardware-software interface driver or soemthing that allows dvd's to be read (codec? i have no idea), as it crashes any dvd app I have tried. (so far only vlc and dvd player). I tried in quicktime but couldnt find how to open a dvd
    Thanks!

    Having tried to re-install the DVD Player application it might be worth applying the 10.6.6 combo update (not the update via Software Update). From the threads I've read here it can often help with issues in this kind of area. Other than that it might be worth backing up your files and consider starting with a fresh copy of OS X. For all the space these apps take up I'd probably recommend leaving all the Apple ones alone.
    I take it you have the same problem in Front Row too?

  • Shockwave flash is crashing as soon as I start playing anything online. And if the video somehow plays, it crashes as soon as I try to watch fullscreen. Help

    I am using Firefox 34 and shockwave player 16. Both are the most recent updates available. But shockwave player crashes as soon as I try to watch any video online. I hAve tried all the suggestions in Adobe and mozilla forums but nothing helps. Recently, I cannot even watch the video fullscreen. A window pops up saying security error #2152: media cannot be played fullscreen. Earlier this was occasional but now it is regular and every time I try the same happens. I have tried creating profile and restarting firefox. The hardware acceleration mode is unchecked and firefox is running in safe mode. Real player is also disabled. Please help.

    Note that Shockwave Flash player and Shockwave (director) player are not the same thing. In this case you are referring to the Flash Player.

  • Playing podcast crashes iPod

    I'm having a strange problem. When I try to play a podcast from one particular series on my iPod, it crashes. The Apple logo comes up and the iPod restarts. This happens every single time I attempt to play any podcast from this series. However, these podcasts play just fine on my Mac in iTunes. Also, other podcasts will play perfectly on my iPod. Even more strange, the podcasts in question that don't work now USED to work just fine. I seem to remember the problem happening after the QT update or perhaps an iPod update - I'm not sure.
    Does anyone have a clue why this might be happening, and what I can do to fix it?
    Thanks.

    The 1.2 firmware added gapless playback, backlight dimmer, improved battery life, and the ability to play movies to your iPod. But if you want to revert back to an earlier firmware, I suppose you could just got to apple.com/support and then click the download section and download an earlier firmware. I suggest not doing this because you will loose all the features i stated above, and iTunes 7.X requires firmware 1.2 on the iPod 5g.
    As for now just turn off the EQ it will allow to play podcasts and it will make your batter last longer.
    Hope I could help.
