How can I separate backup files on my Media Player?
After restoring my computer, I tore the back of files in my Media Player, but they go back in their original format. Now, they are all listed on 1 album which is, of course, unknown. I edited all the songs by title and artist, but I can't understand how to separate categories of artists and recover the original album info. How can I move the songs from the album at their own records of each artist? I use Windows XP and Windows Media Player 11.
OK, first thing to understand that when you rip a cd and it is not recognized, he'll call the 'artist/album/song' (or how ever you have your game settings) as an artist Unknown/Unknown Album / unknown song.
The first thing is so raise your internet connection, and then run your files through windows media player search. Means the faster is to open WMP and drag and drop everything. The upward gaze should start automatically (unless you have disabled this feature), and you should start to notice.
If you have any questions let me know.

I am trying to sync my ipod with my windows media player and when I connect my ipod windows media play is not read. How can I sync my ipod with windows media player?
Hello
Your MP3 player should have 2 settings - MSC that should allow the player to be used as a
external drive and PSG that is the parameter to use to sync with WMP11. Remove the MP3
and restart the computer. Change the MP3 in MTP mode - it power off and plug it in.I hope this helps.

How can I get the HD for Windows Media Player 11 codecs?
Hello
Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong section. I'm new here.
Anyway, I recently got a new computer and now I have installed Sony Vegas 9.0 land. When I went to make a WMV 11 video in 720 p, I get an error saying that I did not install this Windows Media codec. My guess is that I bought a new computer, 12 WMV on it. Any help is appreciated. Also, I'd love to take this to sony, but you pay for technical support here. I'm not going to pay money to be told that I have to buy the latest version of Sony Vegas.

Can not play .3gp files in windows media player
How can I play 3jjp may not work on my computer
Hello
Are you referring to the .3gp format?
You will need a codec to play the video file. A codec is a software to compress or decompress a digital media file, such as a song or a video. Windows Media Player and other programs use the codec to play and create digital media files.
Method 1 : you can check the link to see the guidelines on the issue.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/codecs-frequently-asked-questions
Method 2 : you can use the link and check if you get the necessary codec to download depending on the type of file, you try to read.
http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspxMethod 3 : you can also use your favorite search engine to download and install a codec based on the file type, you must use.
NOTE- 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.
Hope that helps.
