Cannot retrieve the CD in Media Player

Media Player does not recognize that a CD is in place.  Tells me to insert my CD to rip.  The latest version of Media Player and to use Windows XP.  Thanks for the suggestions or answers!

In WMP, press Ctrl + M to the Tools menu to appear.

It seems that the AutoRun or AutoPlay got disabled on your system. Follow the instructions on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330135 to reactivate these.

  • ORA-01124: cannot retrieve the data file 1 - file is in use or recovery

    I'm trying to recover the database in waiting, but it gives the error below.

    ORA-00283: cool cancelled due to errors
    ORA-01124: cannot retrieve the data file 1 - file is in use or recovery, the recovery is already said
    ORA-01110: data file 1: ' I:\ORACLE\QAS\SAPDATA1\SYSTEM_1\SYSTEM. DATA1'

    When I checked in the alert log recovery is not started. and later I hae given ' alter database recover Cancel "and the command to meet with the threshold.

    "media recovery has not started.

    It seems that the recovery was stuck between the two.
    Please advise me how to kill the recovery session that is stuck. because I don't want to bounce the database pending.

    Thanks in advance.

    Dataguard and MRP, you run a script before.

    In a standby scripted, a session to RETRIEVE the DATABASE would an UNTIL clause (SEQUENCE up to THAT most likely). At the end of the recovery at this point (SEQUENCE #), he left and stop at the database.

    In addition, the script is such that when a RECOVERY session is active, another session is not authorized to start. It can loop in pending state or go out and do it again the next scheduled interval.

    Apparently your startup script is not strong enough to prevent another session of RECOVERY to start even though the first is active (or it doesn't have a good up to THAT clause and stop, exit, closing stocks)

    What you have is a custom implementation of a database of pending. Without all the details of the script, the 'blocking' between sessions (to avoid a second RECOVER start when one is already running) etc... We can't really do much to help you.
    Your scripts must be standing with status information. It should be possible for you to discover the 'other' sqlplus session which emanates a DATABASE to RECOVER, but not yet out (p. ex... How about a simple "ps - ef |") grep sql' and ' ps - ef | combination of grep ora"?)

  • The xbox 360 Media Player no longer plays music after that I upgraded my CPU. Error message: media sharing service has been terminated

    Original title: the xbox 360 Media Player plays more music after I upgraded my CPU

    I have Vista 64 SP2.  The service runs for 5 seconds and then I get the message that she stopped. He was works well for years (my Xbox 360 sharing), I'm guessing he stopped a few weeks ago after I put in a slightly faster processor. I watched a some tech posted and tried to run the program which seeks the corrupted system files, but the only files that it could not pay had to do with the sidebar Windows. I have removed and put back my media extender, I thought that it worked because I've seen (from my xbox) miniature images, videos and music counting upward, as they have been added and I could see them. But if I take one he freezes for a few seconds and then says the media sharing service took end (or something like that). Then, I go to my PC and see that it stops. I can restart, but it only lasts for 5 to 10 seconds.

    I also say a post about deleting files in C:\Program Data\Microsoft\DRM, but I have all the files in there. Just a server folder empty.

  • adding new files or remove the old Windows Media Player files. (Vista)

    Since June 2010, I was not able to add new files or remove the old Windows Media Player files.  I can click on a new file and play using WMP or add to a playlist that is currently playing, but it does not recognize that it was added after as I close the program and re-open it.  Or I can delete the files that no longer exist on my computer but WMP always has them as my files.  When I click on add new media, it recognizes the right amount of files I would be adding, says to add them and then nothing is there.

    Your media library has probably been corrupted. To reset, follow the instructions for WMP 11 Vista at http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#medialibrary . Note the reset of the library will make you lose all the counts to play and possibly ratings too. Tim Baets
