Windows Media Player 11 not recognizing files on Creative Zen X-Fi?

I recently made an attempt to synchronize the files on my Creative Zen X-Fi to my Windows Media Player library to transfer them to my other MP3 player, however I receive this message when I attempt to view the files and sync them: "There are no files on this device. To begin, sync files to the device." The files are definitely existent as I can listen to and view them on the device and WMP has recognized there is only 8 MB of space remaining. Could you help me resolve this problem? Thank you

Hi,
Can you please try transfering these songs using Windows Explorer to see if it goes through?

Windows media player not recognized as a valid plug-in in safari?

on this PB 15 1.67/OS 10.4.3 I experienced some difficult in installing a piece of software, here's the thread....
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1360929#1360929
prior to this difficulty, I had installed windows media player to access video clips embedded on news web sites etc, and everything worked fine, video usually streamed right into the media player, not saving a file to the desktop, but merely playing in a window....
to solve the software install problem above, I returned to the apple store & they suggested and helped me accomplish an archive & re-install of the OS, and afterwards, the problem software installed properly...
since the archive & re-install of OS 10.4.3, my windows media player is not recognized as a valid plug-in by safari.
when I click on a video link (embedded), a seperate window appears that describes my need to install windows media player 9 for mac (and it's already in my app's folder), when I download the file to attempt re-installing media player, stuffit doesn't seem to un zip the file after double clicking on it, no app file appears on the desktop to mount in the apps dierctory?
if the video link is not embedded, I can cntrl-click and save the file to the desktop and it will play normally, but if the file is embedded I have no means to see the news clip etc?
also, for those video files that are not embedded, instead of playing directly via streaming, when a link is clicked, the file downloads to the desktop before playing?
these aren't huge problems (well when trying to view an embedded news clip it is!) but any help in trying to return to normal behaviour would help!
thanks again,
dave
powerbook G4 1.67 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

thanks for the link, but I wa really looking into making the win media player function as it had before I had to archive & re-load OS 10.4.3
I use the player infrequently, but it drives me crazy when I'm looking @ a news page w/an embedded video and can't merely click it's link & see the clip!
any thoughts on why I can't get the win media player sitx file to un-stuff and possibly re-install win media player to allow safari to recognize it as a valid plug-in?
thanks again....

Problems using windows media player to transfer files to zen x

All 9gs of my music is stored in windows media player music library.transferring it to zen xtra has caused many cds arriving at player with wrong content under different artists and some songs copied many times over. Is there a known conflict using windows player and zen xtra?I would use mediasource but my cds imported to ther interface with many not identified even thogh all my music was clearly labeled with artist, title and gnere in windows music library.Any help would be great. I cant get my 9gs of music into the zen without content mess u
ps.
thanks matt

I, for one, am incredibly dissapointed in the portable file aspect of this player. i work in a PC store and we sell the Zen Touch , i also received one for christmas. At first i was very happy that i could also use it to carry my files to and from school but all my hopes were extinguished when i realized that the computers i would transfering to and from had to have the creative software installed. Obviously, Creative's target consumers are of the Student generation, so they must have known that we, as students , use computer labs in school. So why not add the firmware to override the creative software when transfering data files? What's written on the box and the sales pitch creative uses is extreamly misguided and alot of the buyers have come back to the store with complaints. They arn't happy, i'm not happy, creative should fix this porblem, and yes it is a problem and not "part of the design".

How to make WMV files open in in Windows Media Player not Flip4Mac/QT

I just installed Safari 4. With Safari 3 when I clicked on a WMV file on a web site it would automatically open in Windows Media Player. I liked this arrangement just fine. When I installed Safari 4, instead of this happening WMV files started to download instead. I installed Flip4Mac and now they play in QuickTime but I don't like the controls... i.e. I cannot adjust the volume except from the keyboard.
Is there any way to make WMV files open in Windows Media Player the way they used to in Safari 3 instead of either downloading or opening in QuickTime with Flip4Mac?

Not very easy but it could be done.
If the file opens in QuickTime (via Flip4Mac) you can use the Movie Inspector window to "find" the URL. Then open that URL directly in WMP.
You could also dig through the page source code or use the Safari Activity window to find the URL.

Make Firefox Open Windows Media Player for Video Files

I need to make Firefox open the actual Windows Media Player application (not a plugin, the actual app window) when clicking on video links, e.g., WMV. These file types are already associated in Windows Explorer with WMPlayer, but this has no effect on Firefox.
What happens right now is that after clicking a video, I get a black screen with the yellow VLC Player icon (VideoLAN VLC is installed on my PC) in the center and no video. I do NOT want to launch VLC or any internal plugins.

You can change what type of application opens for each kind of type in Firefox's options.

Windows Media Player not selecting custom audio renderer filter on Windows 7 (works with graphedit)

Hi there,
I have custom directshow audio renderer filter derived from CBaseRenderer base class and implements IBasicAudio interface.
Filter works fine with graphedit and media player classic, I am able to receive audio data. But when I try to play file using Windows Media Player, filter gets callback in completeconnect followed by breakconnect and then its discarded.
Things I have tried so far --
Implement IBasicAudio interface, still fails with WMP
Modify audio renderer filter to connect with video decoder, it works fine with WMP and I can get dump of raw video data
Implement IReferenceClock interface, still fails with WMP
Implement this filter using CBaseFilter as base class, still same outcome, CompleteConnect on receive pin followed by BreakConnect and filter is discarded
It seems that Windows Media Player is looking for some specific interface that I might have not implemented or is picky for audio renderer. I found similar issue at https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/windowsdesktop/en-us/6e5985fb-3ca2-41b3-9a99-7a9b97ae7357/directshow-filter-stopped-working-in-windows-7-media-player.
But it seems unresolved.
Please help, am stuck on this issue for 3 days without any luck. Any clues on this is appreciated.
Thank you.

Thanks for the reply Roman.
Most of QuerryInterface calls received in NonDelegatingQuerryInterface callback inside filter are same as that for greaphedit.
From http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mediasdkstuff/archive/2008/09/19/custom-directshow-audio-renderer-hangs-playback-in-windows-media-player-11.aspx, it seems that WMP on Windows 7 uses preferred list of filters using IAMPluginControl that cannot be modified
by 3rd party.
There has to be some workaround for this that am trying to figure out. Any clues on this?
Thanks,
Shobhit

Help New satellite c655-s5136, programs slow, window media player not working, and more

I just bought this computer in January 2011 and had a lot of problems w/ it.
1) At first it wouldn't go on certain webpages. (for example I could get on gmail not yahoo). The help screen said it was the router or there were no issues. I had to look online (on a different computer) and find out I had to turn off all my plug in to get it to work.
NOW
I keep getting an RUNDLL error message every time I turn it on. Can someone tell me what that is?
it says specified module could not be found: C:\user\Tashaun\appdata\local\upifitizoyiziyem.dll
The internet and all offline programs are running really slow and they keeps freezing or shutting down on their own or won't come up at all
Windows media player is completely messed up. My downloaded music won't go into the library. I have to make a playlist and put my songs in that. But yesterday I got some error message and half of my songs disappeared. I can't export the songs from the windows player either. I looked online and it all says the player is corrupted due to installation error when upgrading to windows 7. But I never upgraded to windows 7. It came with the computer. I tried some of the solutions anyway but I can’t delete wmdb file because windows said the media center was open, even though I used task manager and shut all programs off
Should I have Toshiba look at the computer? I don’t know if it’s the computer or the windows 7 software. Except for having to disable plugins, the computer worked fine for a month.
In addition, had Norton internet security on the computer since day 1. Tried Microsoft fix it program. And fixcleaner

With dll names like that, it looks to me like you've been hit by a malware. Doing recovery to out-of-box state is your easy way out on this.

Safari crashes with Windows media player and pdf files

My Safari beta 3.0.3 crashes when I access windows media player files or pdf files. I am running 10.4.10. I tried to go back to Safari 2 but the installer did not let me because of the 10.4 version.

You may want to try installing the most recent version of Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.0.x, as this resolved the issue for me. Download the Acrobat Reader Install app. shut down all browsers, uninstall all older versions of Acrobat Reader (unless you really want to keep them), then install the version 8.x version. You may need to restart your computer too. After Safari 3 has the plug-in from Acrobat Reader 8.x in use, you are not likely to have any more PDF issues.

Opening mp3 file in KM Content w/ Windows media player end of file reached

Hello all, when I am in KM content, I click on an mp3 file and I get end of file reached w/Windows media player. If I select the mp3 file and say "Save target as" and download it to my pc I can open it just fine in windows media player. Also opening the file in km content with Real Audio Player, I get a login prompt to the portal. When I click cancel the file plays in real audio. If I enter my login credentials in the real audio prompt the file won't play. Any ideas anyone?
thanks in advance

Windows Media Player not working in Firefox 7

This pertains to a beta Internet radio page at http://www.radiofreeneptune.com/ with Windows Media Player embedded in the page.
Prior to Forefox 7, browsing the page with Firefox had the correct media player interface appear (black, with blue buttons) as soon as the page loaded. Clicking on Play caused the music to play.
Having updated to Firefox 7, Firefox stops working for about a minute when the page is first accessed (it appears to be buffering a lot of audio). A crude Media Player interface finally appears. Audio starts playing immediately, even though the embedded control has it AutoStart set to false.
FireFox has the Microsoft Windows Media Player for Firefox 1.0.0.8 installed.
Any idea what might be causing this?
Thanks.
Jack

Try to remove the old (Npdsplay dll in the plugins list) WMP plugin in case that is used.
The embed for Firefox has autostart="1" not not autostart=false (0) like the object for IE.

Windows Media Player not working on CNN??

I have installed Windows Media Player 9 and the plug-in for it to work on Quicktime. On other websites it works (at least comes up) when clicking on videos. However, on CNN it says no player detected. Anyone have more info? I'm thinking maybe WMP doesn't work with Intel. I've tried reinstalling it several times.

windows media player works with intel through rosetta. the quicktime wmv plugin does not yet work on intel however. if you right click on safari under your applications and click "get info", there is a box you can check that allows you to open safari using rosetta. this should allow the windows media player plugin to work with safari, it will just be a lot slower. flip4mac is promising a native version of the quicktime component soon, so that should solve the problem for good when that comes out.

WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER NOT WORKING. PLEASE HELP!!

I recently bought the Xtremegamer X-fi sound blaster card. I installed all the drivers and updated them.
System
cpu: 4200 AMD X2
Speakers: 5. setup
(shouldn't be any problems there)
My problem is that i can't play music through windows media player. I can play games and get music fine, i can stream videos online and get music, but i can't play music from my library on WMP. When i click on a song, the bar shows that the song is going, but there is absolutely no sound.
I downloaded iTunes, and i can play music just fine on that, but i HATE iTunes.
(and yes i checked to make sure nothing is muted)Message Edited by jaredcaspers on 2-30-200704:3 PM

On the top bar of Windows Media Player click on "Play" and then select "Volume" from the dropdown list. Make sure that "mute" doesn't have a checkmark beside it.

Despite having the File Associations in both Windows Control Panel and Firefox Options set to Windows Media Player for *.mwv files Firefox tries to open them with Foxit pdf Reader, which bombs out - what now?

Making this entry from my Linux computer which handles the situation correctly.The real situation involves only a Toshiba laptop running Windows XP.

I used this link for tiff http://www.nrl.navy.mil/content.php?P=IMAGES
QT was opening the tiff files. When going into the QT control panel Browser>Mime settings>Images-Still image files I was able to uncheck tiff, which held. I was also able to uncheck all the file types under File Types tab(Images-Still image files) in the QT control panel. However the preference would not hold. Went into Start>Set Program Access and Defaults that also was of no help.
The only way I was able to get QT to release the tiff's from the website I posted was to go into the Folder Options control panel for File Types and change the tif & tiff from QT picture viewer to windows picture and fax viewer.
So not sure why the QT control panel will not respond, there are other file types in the Folder options control panel on this computer other than tiff's that are still associated to QT, but didn't try changing them, perhaps that needs to be done?
Good post I didn't realize this before reading your post, if I come across anything further I'll post back.
