Rhapsody Library Empty in Cisco Media Player

Hello,
I have a Rhapsody account setup and can access it from Cisco Media Player when I use the Search, Channels, and other functions just fine.  However, the Media Player is not able to find my stored Library.  When I login to the Rhapsody web page, my library is there and available.  Yet, when I use the Media Player and go to Rhapsody then My Library, none of the options (Music, My Playlists, My Channels) lists anything in there for me to select.  Like I said, however, I can still go to Rhapsody Search in the Media Player and find stuff that way.  Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Ed

i was just having trouble getting rhapsody to play on my director after i'd set up the free trial - kept getting a 'director error / rhapsody error' on the screen.  figured out that was because i was using my personal email address, which i'd used to set up a previous free trial that had expired...   when i plugged in my work email, which i'd used to set up the new trial, worked perfectly...     to put that email address and password in your need to go through the process of setting up a wireless home audio device with LELA though before it will let you enter your rhapsody user name and password (it then pushes these rhapsody settings to the device).  might be helpful if someone is having a similar set up issue...  i didn't bother to use the install disk initially, but you do need to run LELA for it all to work properly.

  • Cisco Media player and Wireless Home Adudio DMC250 stopped seeing my computer music Folder

    I do not know when but cisco media player and my DMC250 stopped seeing the music folder in my PC. It does not appear anymore as a Music Library
    I have reinstall LELA, Cisco Media Server and Cisco Media Player and reconfigure the DMC250 and nothing seems to work. Cisco Media player and the DMC250 only see the USB drive attached to the DMC250. Please Hellp!! I do not know how to fix this issue
    Thanks!!

    How about the Cisco Media Server software, is it still running? Try disabling your computer firewalls as well for further isolation.

  • Cisco Media Player Indexing

    When I opened the Cisco Media Player to my music library, I received a message the program was indexing and to try again later.  When I finally was able to open my library, a number of tracks from different artists and albums fell under an "Other" genre and were displaced from their normal positiions.  The features and help for the Media Player are pretty lame, and I need to know how I can get Cisco Media Player to re-index my library back to its original condition.  Refreshing the zones and locations does not do the trick. 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Well, after a lot of teeth gnashing and hair pulling, I finally caved in and called Linksys support.  Most of the tech's suggestions were things we talked about earlier, such as the cache flush.  I described to him that I uninstalled the program and re-installed at least three times with no success.  After uninstalling I even went into the registry and elminated any reference or key which contained the words "Cisco Media" and CiscoMedia".  After each install the Cisco Media Player did not show my music library, but it could play the radio stations.   The program would also give me the same message it had earlier about indexing the files.   
    It was at that point the tech mentioned something which stunned me.  He asked about the LELA version and build.  When I told him I had the latest build, he said I was running the 32 bit version.  My operating system is Vista Ultimate 64.  When I loaded the program from the CD, it had an older version of LELA so the program automatically downloaded the latest '32' bit version.  The tech gave me the URL for the 64-bit version - http://update.linksys.com/lela/install/lela-64.exe.  I uninstalled everything including LELA and went in and scratched the registry as before.  Plus I made sure the Cisco Media Player folder was deleted from the Program files (x86) folder.  After I installed the 64-bit LELA and Cisco Media Library, everything came up right.  The music files were there and indexed correctly and LELA wasn't quirky about the connections as before. 
    What really aggravated me is the fact that the install disc did not ever query me on the operating system I was using.  It automatically loaded the 32-bit version and then downloaded the updated version.  Not only that but I never did see any reference in their support page about a 64-bit version .  This was Major aggravation with a capital "S".  Well at least I don't feel like I wasted $300 on a POS.  Things are working fine now and I guess that's what's important.

  • Installation of Cisco Media Player on additional PCs

    If you want to install the Cisco Media Player software (to control a Wireless Home Device) on additional computers, the Quick Installation Manual states in the Troubleshooting section that this can be done by inserting the Wireless Home Audio Installation CD and then press the Connect Computers option on the first screen.
    However, this option is missing on the initial screen displayed after CD insertion.

    As a workaround, try downloading the setup wizard from LinksysbyCisco download site and extract the ISO file. From it you should be able to install the Cisco Media Center software without running through the whole process again.
    Here's the link for it.

  • Importing from Media Player

    I'm terrible with computers...I have my entire music library on my windows media player and now want to switch everything to iTunes.  How do I go about this?  I did read somwhere that any files I import will only be copies - the original to remain wher it is.  Is this true?  Won't that mean that I then have 2 music libraries?  Won't that take up unnecessary space on my computer?  Seems there should be a way to use one app or the other, right? 
    Thanks for any help

    It is possible to end up with one set of tracks (i.e. files) shared between iTunes and Windows Media Player but you will need to do things a certain way to achieve this. First we need to go over some things to prepare the way.
    While iTunes can import MP3, AAC, Apple Lossless, AIFF, WAV, and WMA, it cannot use WMA (it has to convert them) and even WAV and AIFF will have certain drawbacks in this scenario. You also need to indicate whether any of the music in your Windows Media Player library is protected by DRM. We will assume for the moment none of your tracks are protected by DRM.
    So out of the list of formats above, we really can only consider either MP3, AAC, or Apple Lossless. You then need to decide whether you want the best possible audio quality or you are happy to accept a lower quality but to make life a bit simpler. If for example all your music is from original audio CDs and you want to keep the full quality of the original audio CD then you should choose to use Apple Lossless. Therefore suitable formats to use are Apple Lossless, AIFF, WAV, or WMA (lossless). Of these the only one that can be fully shared with no problems between iTunes and Windows Media Player is Apple Lossless. As I mentioned earlier AIFF and WAV have drawbacks in that WAV does not support using meta-tags, and WMP cannot read meta-tags in AIFF files. It is however possible to get WMP to read meta-tags in Apple Lossless files.
    So, if your music is coming from CDs you should use ideally Apple Lossless. If your music is currently in WAV or WMA (lossless) format you will need to convert it to Apple Lossless, this is possible with various Mac or Windows utilitities, but you may find that it is going to be just as easy to reimport in to iTunes from the original audio CDs.
    If however your music is currently in a lossey format like MP3, or AAC, or WMA (lossey) then for MP3 or AAC keep it in the same format as currently, and for WMA (lossey) iTunes when it imports the tracks will convert them to AAC and should also convert the meta-tags.
    So you will eventually end up with all the music in iTunes in either Apple Lossless or MP3 or AAC format. Windows Media Player 12 (for Windows 7) can play MP3 or AAC as standard but needs a little help to play Apple Lossless. To add Apple Lossless support to WMP you need to first install a suitable DirectShow filter written by Milenko Mitrovic at my request and based on a solution I devised. Due to Windows 7 moving to a new style of codec, I find the easiest way to do this is to install the Shark codec pack for Windows 7 as available here http://shark007.net/win7codecs.html and then activate the support for Apple Lossless.
    In theory that should be all that is needed as Apple Lossless uses the same file format as AAC, the same file extension as AAC, and the same meta-tag format as AAC, which WMP12 already supports. Unfortunately Microsoft willfully sabotaged things. We therefore need to also install a plugin for WMP12 which will trick WMP12 in to accepting Apple Lossless files as if they were AAC files. See http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=75123&view=findpost&p=75 9658 and download the beta version of WMP Tag Plus.
    With both the Shark codec pack, and the WMP Tag Plus plugin installed, WMP12 will be both able to play Apple Lossless and to allow adding Apple Lossless to the WMP music library, and be able to read the meta-tags from Apple Lossless files, including embedded artwork.
    So we have now (in theory) got all the music in iTunes in a format that will also be compatible with WMP (MP3 or AAC or Apple Lossless), we have if needed added Apple Lossless support for WMP. The final thing we need to do is to get WMP to use the same files as iTunes. Ideally you start off with WMP being empty, you then simply tell WMP to add the iTunes music library folder and it will add them to its library without having to copy, duplicate, or convert the tracks. It should even in theory automatically spot new tracks when added via iTunes and add them automatically as well.

  • Using windows media player

    I would like to purchase music from itunes, but then save the songs in my library of my windows media player. They do not seem to be compatible. How do I do this?

    Here's the wiki for DRM
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digitalrightsmanagement
    In Windows Explorer, just wave your cursor over an MP3 file. A ballon should pop up with more details. If it is a WMP file and says Protected: Yes, then it has DRM.
    If it's from the iTunes store, it will say M4p (Protected), and that also has DRM.

  • Audio has ceased when at Amazon and with e-mails with audio attachments. This only during last few days previously O.K. Windows Media Player still working so no problem with speakers only happens with online audio. John

    Operating system Windows 7. A few days ago no problems with audio, clear sound when listening to e-mail audio attachments and Amazon music samplers. During last 2/3 days both attachments and samplers fail to work, but when playing music from library held in Windows Media Player no problems. This would appear to show no problem with speakers etc and I have not knowingly amended any audio controls.

    Thank you so much for replying.
    Yes I have removed and reinstalled WMP.
    I had good results with the PD6 application installed on the default path onto the C: drive with the one exception that if the application was launched by accident and the user data path was not available, the PD6 application would blow away my custom user path registry settings. Now that I know what they are I have made a .reg file to repair my registry to my desired user data paths.
    Installing the application on the removable drive appeared to help prevent me from launching the application by accident and overwriting my registry with default user paths.
    So which is the less of the two evils?
    If the application directory is not available, windows media player still tries to launch the .msi for installing PD6.
    If I install the application to the C: drive but the user data to the removable drive, launching the PD6 application without the user data drive will still corrupt my registry settings for a user data path.
    Both these issues seem like a logical (if not easy) fix that should be done in the PD6 application and installation package. I mean really, cannot anyone tell me why windows media player is checking the PD6 application directory? Why in PD4 did we have an option control for setting the user data path from the PD4 application? Why is this option not in the PD6 application, just the installer?
    I am given a choice during installation to move the user data to another non default location. Why else would this be provided if not to accommodate my kind of request to store the user data into an alternate location other than “My Document”. Certainly Palm is not trying to force the users on how to protect and store their personal data?

  • Vista with Creative Media Player keeps stoping during transfers to my Zen To

    After my old computer crashed I purchased a new computer with Vista and like many others I went through the process of updating the firmware on my Zen Touch on another computer with XP and Windows MediaPlayer 0. I followed all the steps, including updating to the latest Creative Media OrginazerPlayer(5) and Play for Sure updates. Of course I lost all my music on the ZenTouch but I had my music saved on a external hard dri've. I loaded all the songs to my new computer and added them to the library for the Creative Media Player. Next step was to add them back to my Zen Touch. Becasue I had so many specialized playlists this process was going to take forever and would have to add songs one at a time. Everything was working great at first. I had no problems with Vista recoginizing everything and it all seem to function well. As I started to transfer songs to Zen Touch everything also went fine at first. Once I got through a few hundred songs the Media Player keeps stoping (atleast that's what the window that pops up says). I can sometimes go on later and transfer a few more songs but only a few and then it stops again and again and again. The ZenTouch is fully charged and being detected so the answers I've seen posted don't help. I've done so much to get everything to work and now this.... I running out of patience. I really don't want to start over or use the Windows Media Player if I don't have to since I've created so many playlists on the Creative Media program.Any suggestions out there on how to solve the problem of the constant stopage of the Creative Media Organizer when transfering songs to my Zen Touch Sorry for the long post- just wanted to cover the fact of what I've done already so there won't be any reiteration of suggestions.Message Edited by mattkaetzel on 0-03-20082: AM

    Older Creative HDD-based players with special drivers (PDE), such as the Jukebox Zen,?were not supported past Windows XP. [url="http://mrinternet.wordpress.com/2007/03/0/creative-zen-nx-and-vista-working-together-finally/" rel="nofollow">This site[/url]?(thanks coachop94) describes someone's effort to get PDE drivers to work in Vista; try at your own risk. If that doesn't work, you'll have to transfer your files off the Jukebox Zen using an older computer (XP or earlier).
    Also, if you have MediaSource 5 you should also have installed the appropriate plug-in from the Jukebox Zen support page.

  • Converted songs from Windows Media Player to itunes show up in the library but will not play

    I just installed itunes for the purpose of converting my Windows Media Player library to itunes.  I went through the install and added the music folder.  itunes went through the conversion process overnight and all of my songs appear in the music library.  However some songs will play properly and if you open them in windows explorer they are in a folder called my music/downloads and are mpeg files.  Other songs that are listed in the music library and appear to have been converted will not play.  When you click on these songs that won't play it appears to be playing in the progress bar on top, but no sound comes out and the EQ visualizer shows nothing.  When you open these songs in Windows explorer they are located in a folder: my music\i tunes\itunes media\music and they are a .AAC audio file type. What went wromg in this conversion process? Why is itunes putting these files in two different locations?  Why will these files not fully convert and play?

    This is also what I suspected but why would the songs go through conversion, show up in the library, and then not play?  Apple support even says "itunes for Windows cannot import or play WMA files that are protectd."  Yet the imported song is sitting in the library and when you play it the song is listed and the diamond advances - but no sound.
    Also, any tips on how to see if a WMA file is protected by DRM?
    Thank you for your response.

  • How can I copy my iTunes library to windows media player?

    Hi, I've spent all morning trying to consolidate all my music into Windows Media Player...so I can make playlists, etc. iTunes seems to be pretty tough....I've moved the library file around....copied, etc. and I can't seen to paste it into Windows Media Player. My itunes library has about 50 purchased songs, and another 100 from my own CDs.
    Does anyone know how to do this? I'm getting really irritable over this!!!
    Thanks in advance!

    The iTunes purchased songs will not transfer to Windows Media Player. Unless you have the iTunes Plus versions, iTunes purchased files are copy protected.
    There is nothing preventing you from adding the other files to Windows Media Player except for maybe file format. Did you rip the CDs to AAC or MP3 format. Don't know if WMP can play AAC. WMP has no problems with MP3.
    To add MP3 files to WMP just add them using WMP functions.

  • How can I upload my Itunes library to Windows Media Player?

    Hello,
    Please can someone help me.
    I want to keep my Windows Media Player library in sync with my Itunes library.
    Does anyone know how to do this?

    In WMP, go to Library > Add to Library, and make sure it is watching any folder where you have music, such as My Music. Then, as you add songs to your iTunes library manually, WMP will add them automatically to its library. (The opposite will not work, since iTunes does not have the ability to automatically watch folders.)
    Since you will be using both players, I strongly suggest you use music only in MP3 format. Also, you must absolutely avoid purchasing any tracks with DRM, since there is no DRM scheme that both players can handle.

  • While installing a program (MediaCenter.exe) to handle audiobooks from the library, I erroneously associated the download site with Windows Media Player instead of the actual application (NetLibrary Media Center). How can I reverse/change this?

    While installing a program (MediaCenter.exe) to handle audiobooks from the library, I erroneously associated the download site with Windows Media Player instead of the actual application (NetLibrary Media Center). How can I reverse/change this? Reinstalling the application does not clear the error, so I'm assuming the association is somewhere in Firefox.

    Never mind -- I just found it under Tools/Options.../Applications, where I changed the incorrect association of "nlmcp" from Windows Media Player to the correct one, NetLibrary Media Center. Done!

  • When I plug in my ipod Nano i syncs to itunes but I can't get the music from my Library in Windows Media Player???

    How can I get my music from my Library in Windows Media Player to sync to my iPod Nana?

    You can't sync an iPod using Windows Media Player.  You need to add the songs to your iTunes library first, and then sync those songs to the iPod.
    This document provides more information (Add to Library section)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1347
    NOTE:  The WMA files (the file type used by Window Media Player) need to be unprotected (no DRM).  They are converted to a format supported by iTunes while adding to the iTunes library.  This WMA conversion feature only works in the Windows version of iTunes (Mac users cannot do it).
    I believe you can drag and drop the WMA files, or the folder containing the WMA files, onto the iTunes window.  The original WMA files are not changed.  iTunes creates its own converted files at the location it stores all the iTunes media files.
