Cannot play music files because they are protected from the DMA

Several years ago, I decided to save space at home by extraction of CD music on a hard drive external loads and binning then the CD I imported the files into iTunes, but the rest I left intact hard disk.

Now, I find that I can't play all the music files because they have the DMA protection on them. Actually, it means that the music files that I had collected during his life and entrusted to storage of Microsoft (if only I had not sent the CD to the grave!) are lost forever.

I tried to find instructions how to remove the protection (legally), but it seems incredibly complicated. I do not understand how, when, to my knowledge, I did anything illegal, it is allowed? It's not like I sold the CD or even given them!

Someone at - it ideas how the hell I get permission to play music?

    I tried for a while to play the transferred music from my hard drive external.

    I tried all sorts of things with WMP and it's just not going to play the files.

    I canoe play my music.

    The thing is that it shows the albums and songs listed there.

    But when I open a song and try to hit the room then a box opens with a warning.

    Say that Windows Media Player cannot find file.

    This has never been a problem with older media players.

    I tried to re - download the player, but it's not part of windows more I guess and that sucks.

    I want the old player back.

    This was very frustrating, I hope someone can help.

  • Cannot play music files in the Amazon (m3u)

    Windows 7 x 64
    Firefox 39.0.3

    I still managed to play music in the Amazon files until either a Windows or Firefox recent update - don't know which came first. No matter now as Amazon apparently use m3u files & I don't seem to have a plugin for them it keeps wanting me to download or save etc, which is not what I want to do with I want to taste a few tens of individuals.

    I have VLC and WMP plugins media both always active value & restarted Firefox many times while working through this issue, but probably none of these work for m3u files? I've read more articles on similar issues, but none of the various fixes have worked for me for example on: plugins options - True (not sure exactly that one is that I had to change). I downloaded and tried to install a 'media pack' for Win 7, but that no longer works.

    Never had this problem until recently through several updates to Windows & /or Firefox so a bit puzzled as to what else to do. The only types of files mentioned in the Options are mp3, 4, mpeg4, wmp.

    Appreciate any ideas. Thank you.

    Please upgrade to the latest version of Firefox:

    The former autour work should do an add operation, try Firefox is Mode without fail to ensure that it is not not a problem with an add we:

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

  • What is I can print RGB files because they are more close to what is on the screen?

    Greetings,

    I have an important question on how to set up my files for printing. At school, I was taught to work in CMYK mode or at least convert any RGB, I work on CMYK. I'm at work now, and the files that I print out of the dull (in CMYK). I converted an RGB file and characterized by the color space RGB 1998 and re do print. The first CMYK print looked gray and lacked vitality. The new print print RGB very dynamic and matched to the screen better than the CMYK colors. My boss wants me to do the rest of the prints in RGB because it prints with better momentum. Also, I work in Illustrator.

    So my question is: can I convert all my CMYK in RGB files, send them to the print shop and wait for prints to be vibrant? Or convert my CMYK RGB files will mess up standards for printing companies?

    RGB print better, but I've learned to always print in CMYK mode.

    I appreciate the help.

    F

    In fact I'll leave the files to CMYK as turning them into RGB can cause loss of color during the big final prints. I'll print however RGB layout files.

    Post edited by: Quinonez

    Quinonez,

    It sounds like your printer (driver) no PostScript and made to receive RGB documents which are then converted to CMYK on the side of the printer.

    When you use it for a CMYK document, it will convert first in RGB, then back to CMYK, in other words a double conversion is about as bad as it sounds.

    For such a printer, it's best to start in RGB, but who can fall back you into the issue of having different bases for printing.

    You can get around it with PS Printer Kit - Q3 to add features for printing PostScript 3 emulation, mentioned here fifth point in the list of features), that I hope will give you some colors at least as good as you have with RGB:

    http://www.digitalcopier.org/Canon-digital-copiers/Canon-imageRUNNER-IR-C3480

    Exclusive Canon UFR II's printing technology is standard on all models. This means that each color imageRUNNER system is a real right of MFP out of the box, ready to produce volumes of general business documents. Guests also have a choice of two print controller options, imagePASS-J1 or PCL Printer Kit - Q3, for extended print capability. For customers who don't require true Adobe PostScript, the unit can also be equipped with the PS Printer Kit - Q3 to add capabilities to print PostScript 3 emulation.

  • my windows media cannot read a file because it does not support the code, with which it has been compressed. What program is best to open it

    the file is BHS1_Dwayne.rpc
    I'm confused why I can't open it. Is there a way I can change the file type or use a general program

    Hello

    You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

    (a) the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

    (b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.

    Windows media player will play only files, if it supports this type of file.

    Please see the article which gives you information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316992

    If the files are not supported by Windows media player, then you will need to use a few players from third party that supports this file format.

  • Why Thunderbird 38.1 suddenly treat the addresses of the list in the form of individual addresses, & dismiss them because they are not in the form user@url?

    When you try to send a message to a group set up in my address book, I get an error message [group name < updated the group description >] is not an email address valid because it is not the form user@host. You need to correct before sending the e-mail message. Thunderbird has apparently taken the description section and tried to treat it as an email address. In doing so, it changes the description of and the original format [names, name2, name 3] (with the exception of the hooks) of [< name >, name2, "name 3" >].

    The list of mail has worked with no problems until today.

    Zenos. thanks for the suggestion. Although he did not provide a direct solution, he pointed me a. Being reluctant to try to re-enter an address book with more than 1,000 entries, I saved the book and replaced by a backup copy of a computer when I heard the e-mail function worked as desired. I had the same problem.
    I tried to export the book to save what I could at least and ran into problems, I discovered since came from trying to export "all address books.
    Then, I opened a copy of AB. File MAB in Quattro Pro, where I noted PS split the description section of the list of mail problem in separate cells, from commas in this description. I went back to the address book, removed commas from the description, and my group e-mail went out as gently as might be desired.
    I would note that commas have been this likely description for 15 years or more and only now has caused a problem. I guess that's due to some changes in Thunderbird was last updated. Would be nice if we got warnings about this kind of change.
    Answer to my problem: remove the commas from the description in the properties of the list.

  • Copy packaged files but related are taken from the old location

    Hello

    I use CS5 on Windows 7.

    I packed some InDesign files on my computer (let's call it the X drive). Then I take all of the folder that contains the document InDesign, the links folder and the folder of fonts and moved to another drive (let's cal it drive Q).

    If I open the file on drive Q and look at the links Panel, he tells me all the links are from drive X, rather than pull them from the drive Q.

    I know that I can use the option 'create a link to the folder' and tell him to use the links folder have the Q drive, but how come it does not only automatically?

    Thank you

    Katie

    Even if you have packed the file, links are always absolute and point to the location where the package was created. If you COPY the package to a new location, and the old site is still accessible, ID will continue to use the old links. If you MOVE to a new location, and the links are no longer at the old location, then ID search the links folder in the folder of the package.

  • How can I link to R3D files when they are multiple (long resumes 4Gbs).

    Hello guys,.

    I'm transcoding (SOUL) my red images to the H.264 format for easy/fast mounting in another machine slow (the film's Director). But he comes to files with multiple R3D files, long takes over from 4Gbs, it creates several mp4 files, and they are all exactly the same.

    -Can I actually use an mp4 for my editing file and replace with originals later?

    -I should only transcode the first R3D file?

    -How can I connect back once the editing is done? Ive tried but do not know what R3D file should link to and does not after trying it. The mp4 file is take it all, but the R3D are not taking it together since they are separated in different R3D files.

    I work with first CC 2015.

    Thank you so much, I have spent days watching the tutorials but can't find my answer, I would greatly appreciate your help.

    I'd probably transcode to prores proxy, or something that does not have the long form, GOP, as Mp4.   Then, a test and make sure your guard to transcode the original code term when you bind again, there is no problem.

    do a test run w / a clip as not to lose time and when you do a couple of edits in a timeline w / as a clip, click with the right button on the clip in the project bin and select 'replace the clip', point to the original file then who must fill out your edited clip w / new source footage.

    you will then need to change the codec of your timeline should match that of your source.    hope that helps.    Certainly test first to make sure that you have the workflow down before you begin your session.

    This also works when there are tons of clips in your tray of sequences that need to be replace.

    When we work w / R3D files, usually created proxies on the fly for this reason (I think).   I'm sure that simply point to the first R3D file in this order if you make your own proxies, although I have not tested.   the first R3D file will usually connect automatic for the rest.

    This isn't the way we usually work but seems it should work.      Good luck.
