How do I transfer songs purchased on Napster to Windows Media Player

I am trying to find a way more direct songs to transfer that I bought at Napster over my Windows Media where I have my collection of songs and audio books. The only way I've been transferring them was 1 I burn songs to a CD of napster, then I go and rip for Windows Media. It's slow and a waste of a CD basically. Is there another way? An MP3 would work? Transfer of MP3 of Napster, but you can get the MP3 songs and on Windows Media, it'll work like that? If yes then I could just delete the MP3 when finished and the task completed. Is there another way with using any device?

You can download the songs from Napster directly to the Media Player or Windows Media Center.
Once purchased, you can keep this music on your PC forever, burn to CD or transfer them to a compatible MP3 player.

Go to the site below Napster to consult the frequently asked questions.

I hope this helps.

    How can I transfer music from my iPod to Windows Media Player?

    WMP is not built-in iPod support, so you will need to use another media player, such as iTunes or Winamp, to get the music from the iPod to the PC (I don't know if iTunes will allow you to do, but Winamp will certainly be).

    If you then copy the music files to your personal music collection, they appear automatically in the WMP library.

  • multiple copies of each song in the playlist on Windows media player

    OK here is the problem Windows media player started acting up six months ago in taking my music and doubling and tripling, so next time I opened the player instead of having a song should be 2 to 3 to 4 copies of the same song wasn't a single album it was different albums all new songs of my old songs I had before on another computer has not copied over.

    It was the first problem, the second problem which began about three months ago, I started noticing the programs that I installed on the computer telling me that I had a visual experience better if I update Windows media player, not a program but several when I checked the version it has been updated.

    So why if it's updated all programs says visual experience would be better if I updated the player?  so I go into troubleshooting utility to see what could be wrong.  When is the troubleshooting he wants to restore default I very well it but it never gets done and the problem does not get resolved?  Convenience store also happens with configuration parameters are defined bad convenience store as soon as the defect does not solve the problem if any body knows how to solve this problem Windows player plays correctly, but it is very tiring having to remove 300 songs because they have doubled and tripled.  My operating system is Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit Windows media player as I can tell is number 11 and a updated version of programs that are installed on my computer tell me to update? I have other programs that do also video just need to know why Windows media player is not compatible or apparently not compatible with other programs? no response would be good any help would be nice.

    Help, help, help, help, please.

    Hi Ken

    I see that you have not been offered help with this yet, so we'll see if we can get something going on!

    Firstly if you have Windows 7 you must run WMP 12. You run automatic updates from MS?

    In any case I want you to try is - go to "User accounts" in the control panel and together an account "number two". When this is done to insert a cd and Media Player will open and ask you to use the default settings or customize it. I had to go for custom parameters and in the quality of at192mbps "rip music" tab select mp3 or more (you can get a box pop up asking you to accept copyright laws - accept and continue)...

    When he's ready, rip the cd and we'll see if this second account behaves or if you get the same problem of duplication. Looking forward to the result!

  • Information on the media for my songs are listed correctly in Windows Media Player

    Original title: Windows Media Player

    My songs in my Media Player are all wrong, for example, the title of the album is 2Pac, but the song is actually 3 Doors Down, I tried to update media information and pretty much everything else I see. I was going to uninstall the media player, but I can't in my list of programs. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I tried to add songs on my mp3 player, but the list of my reading, it's not that load on my mp3 player. I'm extremely frustrated!

    I'm not sure this will help, but it's how his 'uninstalled and reinstalled' as far as you can - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/26107/how-to-reinstall-windows-media-player-in-windows-7-to-solve-problems/ basically, uncheck, restart and re-checkmark it.

    Theres also some options in the Troubleshoot utility which may help.

    in 'search' of type 'help' (without the quotes).

    In the results, click on troubleshooting.
