Cannot remove Media player 12 playlist songs

Original title: Window Media player 12 - Windows 7 Home first is not delete songs

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.

  • Windows Media Player duplicate CD song titles in my library

    I have an eMachine that manages my Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1. Windows Media Player is a 2009 version 12.0.7601.17514.

    It's something that happens recently. I'll open my Windows Media Player to play a CD for each song, or more, is listed twice and played it so twice. I have about 200 CD which I lived and "Removed from library only" all duplicates a couple of times already. It takes several hours and proves to be unsuccessful. It will also double any Playlist I saved. I haven't added a CD or playlist in over a month. I watched the music in libraries and visited account I had my CD listed in 2 places and removed one of them. This has not solved the problem. I ran a complete virus and malware scan complete and find nothing wrong. I find nice WMP and use Lyrics Plugin functionality often. I don't know what to do at this point.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Window Media Player - print playlist / cannot burn CD playback.

    I use Window Media Player-how can I print a playlist I created. I can't copy in MS Word for example. Also when I burn a CD, it will play on my computer but not my home CD Player - how do I fix this? Thank you

    Hello

    Step 1: To print a list of created play in Media Player, you will need to use a third party software. Online search using your favorite search engine to get it.

    DISCLAIMER of THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    Step 2: If you burn a disc of data with music files and does not have in your mobile, home, or car CD player, check the following:

    ·          Your CD player may not support playback of CD or data DVD discs. Refer to the documentation for the CD Player for more details.

    ·          The CD can be burned to media, such as CD - RW, which is not compatible with the CD player. Refer to the documentation for the CD Player for more details.

    ·          Your CD player may not support playback of the type of music files burned on the disc (WMA or MP3). Refer to the documentation for the CD Player for more details.

    ·          The songs may be protected by copyrights. Other computers may be able to acquire usage rights and play the songs if they have a connection to the Internet, but devices such as radio cars and portable CD players will not be able to acquire these rights, so protected content will be unplayable.

    ·          The CD cannot have been closed when it burned. You can usually solve this problem by adding more songs to the burn list, then you are close to the maximum capacity of the CD. Then, try to burn the list again for a new CD.

  • Why Windows Media Player plays the song wrong when I click it in a playlist?

    I did a huge selection automatically (with 145 songs) with five-star is Windows Media Player 12 in Windows 7 on my Dell XPS L702X.

    So, let's say that I want to hear "Everybody Hurts [edit]" r.e.m. I click on n, it starts WMP play "Slips through my fingers" by Agneta Fältskog!
    He plays another song which is 24 positions above!
    At first, it used only for touch me when I was sorting the songs in the playlist by Genre, Album, year, etc... But now, even with the contributing artist, he played another song!
    The only way for her to play the song I want is with some navigation arrow keys or when I clicked on the playlist and I'd get a unsorted list. With the unsorted list, I find the song.
    It's a difficult problem, but I have a temporary solution. But please try to find an answer!
    EDIT: now at random. Unsorted perspective will give me wrong songs and the artist's view contributing sort will give me good music! What a mix! Say that it is a "re - Mix"!

  • Windows Media Player 12 playlist drag function

    I had this problem for a long time and I tried to deal just with her, but seriously, it's pretty boring.

    When I want to rearrange the songs in my playlist (for example, move a piece from the bottom to the top), it takes literally 5 minutes to get to the top. In other words, it just scrolls very slowly, as I remember in the past (on other versions of Windows Media Player), that I would be able to scroll to the top of the playlist and drop the song there in 2 seconds.
    I thought it might be my mouse at first, but I tried another mouse and same problem.

    Hi Parrot Hog.

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    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.

  • How can I reset Windows Media Player to use songs on my external backup drive instead or in addition to the songs on my desktop with Windows Vista Edition basic hard drive family?

    How can I reset the Player Windows Media in Windows Vista Home Basic to use the songs on my external backup drive instead of (or in addition to) the songs on my desktop hard drive?  Currently, the Media Player library indicates that the hard drive (C:\) is my only option of disks to use for sources of songs.

    Basically, I want to have Media Player external drive for all the songs from research and build his library on this disc instead of on the C:\ drive.
    My problem is that the songs are hogging too much space on my hard drive, so I want to move to my external drive to backup instead, but Media Player will not access it.  I saw an option in Media Player to add a song to a different drive to the library whenever I play a song of this player, but that would require me to play all the songs moved one at a time, which is not practical, and which would not solve my problem because Media Player could still be maintaining the library on my HDD to say.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you.

  • Media player 12 playlist sorting

    I hope I'm missing something.

    I create a playlist with tracks in a certain order. I save it. all right.

    then I accidentally hit one of the column headers (like "title"), which sorts the traces of this column.

    from there, is there an easy way to get the tracks in the original order of the playlist was created? the track numbers are of course the original albums, not the order they appear in the playlist.

    If you play the playlist from the 'Play' tab at the top of the media player, then the changes you make are not saved until you click on the button 'Save list'.  But if you use the entire area (where the column headings, you mentioned are), so no - it saves you were going.
