Window media player with ipod nano

iTunes and other files can convert unprotected Windows media files. If they are protected files then you are out of luck.

Windows Media Player with 10.4.6

My first post here so I hope I do it right.
My question relates to using the Windows Media Player with the new Operating System. I just upgraded from v.10.2 to 10.4. Once I upgraded I was no longer able to open any files in Windows Media player. I figure,no big deal, I just need to upgrade my Media Player. I downloaded Windows Media 9 Player for Mac. Installed no problem but when I try to open I get the message "The application Windows Media Player closed unexpectedly". I then downloaded and installed Flip4Mac as well, but I got the same error messsage.
Am I just missing something obvious?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Both work here without any problem. I suspect a bad installation. Start over by first deleting these from ~/Library/Preferences/: com.microsoft.mediaplayer.plist, Windows Media Favorites, Windows Media Player Prefs; these from /Library/Internet Plug-ins/: /Disabled Plug-ins/Windows Media Plugin, Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.plugin, and Flip4Mac WMV Plugin.webplugin; and the Flip4Mac WMV.prefPane from /Library/Preference Panes/Flip4Mac WMV.prefPane, restarting, repairing permissions, reinstalling WMP and see if it launches. If so, reinstall Flip4Mac and see if that launches. If you have any problems, report back.

Embedded Windows Media PLayer With Non-Standard File Extension

I have embedded a windows media player in a asp.net web page, using the usual
<object> and <embed> tags. The video is served by an ashx (http handler). When I try to play the video, I usually (but not always) get an error message telling me that the file extension (ashx) does not match the file format.
This happens in IE (8, 9, 10, 11) and also in Firefox (latest) with the WMP plugin.
I know that the tags (with classid, etc) are correct because the media player displays and allows me to click the 'play' button.
The ashx returns the correct mime type (video/x-ms-wmv) and a valid file name (somevideo.wmv) in the response headers. I have tried content-disposition attachment and inline.
I have tried urls using 'http://', 'https://', and '//' (which I prefer)
If I put the url (including the .ashx) of the video file in the browser address bar directly, the video downloads and plays in the standalone media player.
If I modify the object tag to use a direct path to the video file (/somewhere/somevideo.wmv), it works - but I can't use this as a solution.
The same ashx serves up video and audio in various other formats with out any fuss - it just seems that the embedded windows media player doesn't like it.
This has been working for several years - I think this is some new behavior, though I can't identify what has changed, other than browser updates.
Any ideas on what could be causing this? Am I missing something simple?

Hi,
Tools>Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default"
Advanced tab of Internet Options>uncheck "Do not save encrypted files to disk"

How do I transfer from Windows Media Player to ipod?

I have recently brought my first ipod and need help transfering my libary onto my ipod.

Hello bountyboy,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
The first thing you will have to do is import the music that is currently in your Windows Media Player library over to your iTunes library because that is the only way you will be able to sync any music to it. Here is an article that provides instructions on how to do this: [Transfer Music from Windows Media Player to iTunes|http://www.jakeludington.com/askjake/20080329_transfer_music_from_windows_media_player_toitunes.html]
From there, you will be able to set your iPod up to sync the music and such however you wish. If you need more help on how to sync the music to your iPod, I think this Apple support document should be able to assist you.

Hope this helps.

Windows media player with safari for windows

Hi everyone
just a little problem of mine...
safari seems unable to detect windows media player. I get a message about 'content of MIME type application/x-mplayer2' when I safari tries to use media player. I tried installing the plugin on this page http://www.apple.com/safari/download/plugins.html which didn't seem to work. I don't know if this is a mistake but the file name suggests the plugin is for firefox...
i have also tried installing quicktime and realplayer with no effect
help appreciated; thank you in advance!

Hi on_safari,
I don't know if this is a mistake but the file name suggests the plugin is for firefox...
Safari and Firefox (and other browsers) use the same interface for handling plug-ins so Safari should be able to use it nonetheless.
I tried installing the plugin on this page http://www.apple.com/safari/download/plugins.html which didn't seem to work.
Can you describe in more detail what you mean? What did you try and what happened? Were any error messages generated?

Can I use Windows Media Player with my Mac?

    I am scheduled to have an interview via WEBEX and need to make sure that all the components of the Universal Communications Format are up and running. When I did a diagnosis check on my MacBook Pro, the Windows Media Player 9.0 or newer said I needed a plug in to run. Where can I find this plug in?
   Thank you!!
   Michelle Schaal

Michelle,
You can download media components for QuickTime which will enable you to play WMA files through QuickTime on your Mac:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/windows-media-components-quicktime
Alternatively, Get the free VLC player for Mac, which will play almost all media types:
http://vlc-media-player.en.softonic.com/mac
If the interview requires Windows Media Player to be running to conduct the interview, then I fear you may be stuck, there is not a version of Windows Media Player for Mac - It is for Windows. Your options in this case would be to borrow a Windows PC or install a valid copy of Windows on your MacBook under BootCamp.

Install Windows Media Player with GPO

Hello,
I want to install Windows Media Player on multiple machines by using a GPO. Anyone who knows how to do this? Because I have little experience doing this. but figured this should be pretty easy. Any other way is appreciated, as long as it is managable.
Thanks in advance.

Lost windows media player with Lion install

Is there an alternative player or ?
Thanks for your help.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. Do you mean you can no longer play WMV files since upgrading to Lion?
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/windows-media-player/wmcompo nents
Windows Media Player is a Windows only program (it is not available in OS X). So I'm only guessing that you're looking to play Windows Media files on your Mac.

View Log Function on Palm TX opens in Windows Media Player, instead of a new window.

hi,
when i clicked on "view log" after a hot sync operation a few hours ago, it brought up windows media player which, of course, could not display it. this is the first occurrence. i am using a palm tx with desktop version 4.2 and a hot sync version of 6.0.1. Strangely, view log opened up on my handheld as it has done many times. i closed the hot sync program, then opened it, and tried a hot sync--no go, media played still opened.
i'm running the palm program on an IBM Thinkpad, with windows xp pro, SP2.
thanks, in advance, for your advice.

Your computer has a File Association problem.
The HotSync log file on a PC has an extension of .htm. Somehow, your computer has associated Windows Media Player with that type of file.
Open My Computer, then pick the Tools tab. Choose Folder Options, then the File Types tab.
Scroll down to the HTM file extension, and see what program is associated with it. I'm betting it says Windows Media Player. Tap the "Change" button, and pick the web browser program you use (mine is set to FireFox). Click the checkmark in "Always use this program" then click OK.
Now it should open correctly.

Software for converting quicktime to windows media player

I am having difficult converting a movie from Quicktime or even IMovie to a program that can be run on a Windows PC.

To convert to Windows Media Player (with .wmv extension), you will need one of the Paid versions of Flip4Mac.
Flip4Mac gives you the components you need. Use something like MPEG Streamclip to do the actual conversion.
If you just want to play it on a Windows PC, but don't care about Windows Media format, there are two ways to go.
1) Just use SHARE/EXPORT MOVIE in the size you want. On the PC, you need to install QuickTime Player for Windows.
2) You can also use SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME. Choose Movie to MPEG4. Choose h.264 as the codec. With this option, it should play on Windows without the need for QuickTime Player to be installed.
I may receive some compensation from my link.
