Cannot move Media Player 10 to 11

I have Media Player 10 on my computer Windows XP Media Center Version 2002 SP3.  I have a Garmin application that requires Media Player 11.  I can go through the entire installation, including the intitial validation, but it will always stop at the final validation and tell me that I need Windows XP to install.  If I try to update directly from WMP 10, it just tells me that the 10 version is up-to-date.

I tried everything and can not take this last step, where it does not recognize my valid operating system.  I have checked the latest updates of the system and have no problem at all.  It's a version of Windows OEM and vaildates fine for everything I've ever used to.

Is it possible that I can get this installed?  Thanks for any help.

    Windows Media Player are not compatible with the iPod. You may need to purchase a plug-in to sync the iPod to your windows media player.

    IPod is designed to synchronize with ITunes.

    Use your favorite search engine to find the plug-in that helps you accomplish the task.

    Hello

    If someone offers help for it, it would be great. Two months ago, I downloaded some songs from my computer and play them on Windows Media and he had no problem with it at all. Tree and then months later, I decided to empty all the songs because I love them more, but the windows media is NOT to delete. Then I went to my music folder and deleted all the music that I didn't and I also deleted it from my computer. But when I opened the windows media, it is still there. I can not play because it tells me that it has been replaced or deleted or removed. These songs are however still in my playlist. Can someone help me remove these songs in my playlist. I would really appreaciate it.

  • Transfer the parameters of Media Player in Windows XP to Windows 7

    I changed Media Player on XP Media Player on Windows 7.

    The files that store the information of the library have different names.

    The 'old' are CurrentDatabase_59R.wmdb and wmpfolders.wmdb.

    The news are CurrentDatabase_372.wmdb and wmpfolders.wmdb.

    How can I migrate the content from the old to the new?

    Thank you

    Michael

    Hi Michael,

    The Player library is a database that includes links to digital media files on your computer. Among other reasons, you cannot move the Player library from one computer to another, because the links in the database would be more correct.

    See the link for more details about this information:

  • Impossible to update of Windows Media Player and Microsoft Security Essentials and the error is "access denied error 80070005."

    Apparently an involuntary change of administrative privileges or permissions (Windows XP Pro, SP3) keeps me updated Media Player version 9 to 11 v. and updated virus Security Essentials definitions.
    For Media Player, wmsetup.log reports access denied error 80070005 and UpdSpAPI.log reports access denied for the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Settings\MP3Encoding\LowRate registry key. In regedt32, I'm blocked from display HKLM\...\MediaPlayer\Settings and below, and "are allowed to view the current permission settings, but... can make a change." Except that I can't. I can enter the change but get «...» Access is denied"trying to apply them. So this is the first problem that I need help.
    But of course it's more than a registry key and the subkeys, because MSE too is affected and will download but not install virus definitions. WindowsUpdate.log reports: failed to install with error 80070643.
    My user account (it's the only one!) is part of the Administrators group and all that I tried to verify administrative permissions is positive. This is a new issue. No virus/malware, according to MSE, Lavasoft Ad-Aware, MalWarebytes Anti-Malware.

  • Cannot play songs from "m4a" Windows Media Player or Movie Maker, purchased & downloaded on iTunes songs

    My PC: Windows Vista Business
    Browser: Internet Explorer 8
    Problem: I am changing a video with Windows Movie Maker. To add music, I bought and downloaded a number of songs with my iTunes account. The songs play on my PC only when you use the iTunes software. The extension of file on the songs is "m4a".

    When I try to play one of the songs in Windows Media Player, I get the following message:

    "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. »

    When I try to import one of the songs in Windows Movie Maker, I get the following message:

    "More than a Feeling.m4a cannot be imported because the codec required to play the file is not installed on your computer. If you have already tried to download and install the codec, close and restart Windows Movie Maker, and then try to re-import the file. »

    Where can I find the "codec" above to download?  This will solve my problem?  Any advice to avoid this problem in the future?

    ==================================
    M4A is not a compatible format. The simple solution
    is to convert .m4a files in .wma format and
    then import into Movie Maker.

    The following free Converter works for me...

    the CD Ripper and Easy MP3 Cutter)

    ==================================
    I joined just thinking... the free VLC Media Player

    There is absolutely no way of knowing what has been added or lack of torrents.  They cannot be infected (or your malware can just missed it), but this does not mean that they have been downloaded correctly or have been completed.

  • Protected by digital rights management and cannot add music from windows media player to windows movie maker

    Original title: I can't add music from my windows media player to my windows movie maker?

    I made a video with windows movie maker and when I tried to add music from my windows media player, I got a message that says that my music is protected by digital rights management and it would'nt I will add the music.i have made a film before, and I could add music.the music in my Media Player is from my own cd collection. then how will I can't add music to my windows movie maker?

    Movie Maker probably only supports unprotected WMA files.

    WMA files will be protected if they were torn apart by WMP with the copy protect music setting (Options of WMP - music Rip) turned on. For an unprotected WMA, you will need to re - rip track, after being assured that this setting is disabled.

  • Windows Live Movie Maker cannot read a particular DVD title while Windows Media Player and VLC can.

    I use WL Movie maker to convert DVD titles/chapters/files .vob in a readable WMV format for consumption on my Windows Phone for later viewing. The DVD is open and has no right of use of media and every other title/chapter on the disk except for this one, I've converted using Movie Maker.

    Windows Media player and VLC Media player can read without problem. Can I also hidden the specific section (and high school) with Divx Plus Converter in Divx format, but Movie Maker can not identify/read the article and simply extract 14-minute shows with nothing in it, even though it has about 25 minutes. Video player can read more about the chapter that is the second vob related file in the section.

    I feel it is a problem with Movie Maker and its algorithms have encountered a scenario where he lost his mind, because I have to kill the Movie Maker, because never happens to expire.

    Is this something where I can send a copy of the image to MS to get trying to fix an error reported to Microsoft Connect, or this there something I can try locally?
