Using Windows Media Player How is it done

I am using the IPod Shuffle. My Family has several mp3 player that all use the Windows Media Player to upload the music we want to hear. I would like to do the same with the Shuffle. I do not want to download the iTunes. As of right now my computer see the Shuffle as a mass removble storage device put my windows Media Player dose not see it. How do I go about changing this so that widows media player will see the iPod Shuffle.
  Windows XP  

the only way i can add music to the shuffle is copy and past. I would like to use an interface. is the only way to do this with itunes? I would like to use WMP. Is this possible?

  • How to move albums that were saved using windows media player

    I have a number of albums that are saved on my computer using windows media player. These were saved before I got itunes. I tried moving some of the albums into itunes but they don't show in tunes. Is there a way to do this rather than read all of the cd's into itunes.
    Thank you

    Sure thing.
    In iTunes, go to File -> Add Folder to Library or Add File to Library. Select the folder which contains your music, or select individual tracks.
    If in your iTunes settings you have iTunes copy music to it's folder and manage it for you, will then make a copy of the music, and put it into the iTunes location for music. It will even convert WMA files for you, into whatever file format you have under Import Settings in your iTunes preferences.
    If in your preferences, itunes does NOT make a copy of your media, then it will simply reference the location it is in currently. If this is the case, then do not move the location of the songs from WMP. However, by default iTunes does make a copy into it's own directory, and if this is the case, you can actually delete the older files, as now you have a copy of these files in your iTunes directory.
    Does this make sense?

  • Problem using Windows Media Player 10 to put music on my Muvo V

    <FONT face=Century size=3>Please Help
    I hvae just bought a Creative Muvo V200 GB. I have tried using Windows Media Player 0 to load songs onto it. It goes through the motions and syncs ok and when I check 'removable' on Windows Media it shows that the songs are on there. However when I turn the MP3 Player on it registers 'no music'
    I tried wiping the player by downloading the firmware and starting from scratch but still get the same problem.
    Just don't like the layout of Creative so would really appreciate some advice on how to fix Windows Media.
    Thank You

    Thanks for that piece of information. Player is definitely working as I have about 20 songs on it through realplayer.
    Put a folder of new songs on desktop and a shortcut to my Muvo V200 but when I try to drag and drop it won't let me. All songs on the Muvo are in the root folder. Am I doing it the proper way? I'm afraid I'm a bit moronic when it comes to computers so if you can be patient perhaps you might like to send it again to me idiot speak.
    Really appreciate it

  • View IPTV using Windows Media Player

    I have a customer who does not want to install Cisco's IPTV viewer on their clients PCs. They would prefer to use Windows Media Player to view both scheduled and VoD streams from their 3427 Broadcast Servers. Is this possible and if so how is it done?
    Thanks,
    R2

    R2,
    Couple of things. If you want to stay away from the installed program, you can use the IPTV plugin, which works fine.
    Also, the latest versions of IPTV (I think beginning with 5.1) support the Apple Darwin (QT Streaming server) which will allow you to use the QuickTime plugin for the browser for streaming support and is also free.
    If you absolutely must use Windows Media, you can do that through the integrated ACNS/IPTV package, but that's not, let's say, fully baked yet.

  • Having trouble using windows media player in a browser

    Everytime I try to open streaming video in Safari I get an error message, sometimes I get "Cannot open the file. Verify that the path and filename are correct and try again" and sometimes "error creating unique tmp file". I have installed wmp I don't know how many times but I just can't get rid of this. I tryed this in my friend's mac and it worked fine but mine is giving me trouble. I have also tryed this in other browsers like Omniweb, firefox and even Internet explorer (internut exploder), what can I do?

    I do not know why it works on one Mac and not another. From a Microsoft Bulletin:
    Playing protected files
    Content providers can protect Windows Media files from unauthorized playback by using a technology called digital rights management (DRM). A Windows Media file that has been assigned digital rights is called a "protected file."
    To play a protected file, you must obtain a license (a kind of electronic key) from the content provider. In many cases, the Player can acquire a license for you automatically when you attempt to play the file. In other cases, the content provider may not issue you a license until you pay a fee or provide additional information.
    Although it is usually possible to play protected files by using Windows Media Player 9 Series for Mac OS X, in some cases you may encounter one of the following issues:
    * The Player displays the error message "Cannot open the file. Verify that the path and file name are correct and try again." In this case, verifying the path and file name will not solve the problem.
    * A Web page is displayed that informs you that you should upgrade to a newer version of the Player. In this case, you already have the latest version of Windows Media Player for Mac OS X, so upgrading will not solve the problem.
    In both cases, there is no way to resolve the issue, and you won't be able to play the file.
    However, I have sometimes been able to extract the url for the media file from the page source and put it directly into WMP and then been able to listen to it.

  • Using Windows Media Player, but my phone automatic...

    Sorry the description is so confusing.
    I have used Windows Media player successfully several times to transfer music to my Nokia 7510.
    However, now whenever I plug into my computer, rather than allowing me to choose from 3 options, one of which is "PC suite" another "Media," and I'm not sure the third, it automattically chooses PC Suite. This makes it impossible to download songs.
    How can I make it so that I have these three choices at the beginning again?
    Thank you very much

    Check the English manual on page 41 about USB data cable connections.

  • Rendering from AECS5 (Mac) for someone using Windows Media Player 11?

    Does anyone know if it's possible, and if so what settings, I could render out of AECS5 on a Mac to a format someone using Window Media Player 11 in Windows XP so they could view the file?
    They are unable to install any other software or codecs other than what comes stock with the XP install.
    Any advice would be much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Kristin.

    MPEG-2 should work. If you include audio, you will get a .mpg file which WMP should play.
    Edit: Sorry, I am wrong about that; they would need to have a DVD decoder pack installed which apparently doesn't come standard.
    Here are two links that don't have an answer, but have info about the problem:

  • On G71-340US: very low volume when using DVD player, but OK when using Windows Media Player.

    Just purchased new laptop G71-340US.  Volume (at full tilt) is decent when using Windows Media Player, but when using DVD player, volume is so low I can't really hear volume on a movie unless room is completely quiet, and I am right in front of laptop. Any suggestions, or is it really this bad?

    I don't have the answer, but I certainly agree. The G71-340us is severly under powered in the audio department. You would think with the extra room in the 17in. chasis they could have put a sound system with a lot more power. Other than that it's a great machine.

  • I have my music library in Windows Media Player, how do I transfer it to Itunes

    I have all my music in Windows Media Player,
    How do I transfer it to Itunes so I can load it into my IPod
    & My ITunes library

    I didnt have ITunes on the old computer, I installed it on the new computer, and when you install it asks if you want ITunes to be your default music player, it imported some of the music that I transferred from the old computer, but didn't import all of it?  Does that make sense? The music was transferred to new computer using Windows Easy Transfer cable....

  • Cannot listen to online radio streaming using Windows Media Player

    Online radio websites that use Windows Media Player - opens up the player in new window but instead of buffering, says that it is playing but no output/sound. Definitely not security/pop up/firewall issue. Windows Media Player works fine playing CDs etc.

    Hi there,
    so, you definitively have a machine whichs plays sound and you can establish a internetconnection. I think its a pure mediaplayer problem (softwareproblem).
    You have the following options:
    1. Reinstall your mediaplayer or update it.
    2. install another mediaplayer software like winamp or some other jukebox
    3. ..no further options
    Give some feedback, so I can maybe help you with your problem. ;)
    Cheers

  • CS4 using a Mac and want to play video using windows media player

    Hi I am having issues with file types to play video back using Windows media player.
    I am producing video using Premiere CS4 on a Mac and I need to know what format to use to have the files play in windows media player as .mp4 is not compatable with wm player.
    Thanks

    I have Windows Media Player installed on my PC workstation and I do remember installing a codec so that MP4 files could play in WMPlayer 11 on Windows Vista 64-bit (should work on 32-bit also)
    look near the bottom section of this link for further information.  The codec is called DirectShow
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316992#34
    Otherwise if you're posting videos on a webpage for example in the mp4 format use the Quicktime html wrapper so that people using Mac's can also view your videos that are encoded for PC's.  If you encode in wmv format (Windows Media Video) then provide a link to the "Flip4Mac" application that can use Quicktime on the Mac to play Windows Media Files.  I think you can find it on www.mactopia.com .

  • Loading iTunes music onto a Lexar MP3 using Windows Media Player

    After I've purchased a song from iTunes, what do I do to load it on to a Lexar MP3 player that uses Windows Media Player? Thank you very much

    Tracks purchased from any legal download store carrying major-label content, including the iTunes Store, are copy-protected (with the exception of music on EMI's labels, much of which is also available in a higher-quality, nonprotected format) and so cannot be directly converted to any other format. You can, however, burn the tracks purchased from the iTunes Store out to an audio CD, at which point it will act just like any other normal audio CD.
