• Get a fixed image and audio while playing a movie in Windows Media Player, also get the message: "network is too busy to read the file to its original quality.

  Original title: Windows Media Player

  When I go to play a movie using windows MediaPlayer all I get is an imagwe again with audio and this message 'network is too busy to read the file to its original quality. Also, all my other media playing programs read the video but are rather "lag". I think the problem is that I already used a program to download torrents called 'BitTorent' and maybe this has used up all my bandwidth or processing speed? Not really sure but would really like it if I could still use WMP and I'm looking for resolution to my problem?

  Thank you

• Windows Media Player 9 Gets the error message - error Http 500

  I HAVE MEDIA PLAYER INSTALLED #9.   I HAVE WINDOWS 'XP', SERVICE PACK #3.   I CANNOT NOW RAISE ' ARCHIVE. NET'.   ALL THAT I GET IS "ERROR MESSAGE ' HTTP500."  That's happened?

  Never use caps - its considered bad manners, IE. you're shouting.

  HTTP 500 is unfortunately for you, a generic error that appears when the program you are using (WMP 9 in your case) cannot think of anything else to report.

  Just to complicate things a bit more, it is not a fault on your machine, but comes rather from the server and cannot be corrected on this machine.

  However, the upgrading to WMP10 or 11 and see if the same thing happens.

  See you soon,.

• My habit of open media, Windows Media Player cannot play the file... »

  Original title: media open habit

  My multimedia files will not open all but a few. When I try to open it it know "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. "I go to properties it know the file type is"in his (.au) format"I use windows 7 on an HP laptop

• How to disable the pop up "Windows Media Player cannot download the information on the media... "after the extraction of a CD without activation of network connectivity.

  When I copy a CD with Windows Media Player, I get the message pop up after the investigation period is over: "Windows Media Player cannot download the media for this CD information. The other titles, artist, and album will be identified as "Unknown" in your library. For best results, connect to the Internet or manually add media for CD information. »

  I know that the message appears when I turn on the setting to allow WMP to connect to the internet to get information about the media, but I don't want WMP does. What I want is a button I can push on the pop-up that says "don't show this message again" (similar to the warnings seen in internet explore). How can I disable this pop-up window without activating the internet connection option.

  In case you're wondering, the data from the internet are incompatible in the naming convention so when I rip an audio book, so I can listen to my mp3 player, I can't completely post-processing script because not all of the disks in a set have a coherent on the slopes or even name the disc etc. At least drives marked 'Unknown' is consistent and so easy to script for the reduction to a single MP3 file.

  Hi fredleon,

  · What is the email client or webmail you are using?

  · What is the attachment file extension?

  · How do you open the attachment?

  · Is it by double-clicking or you choose open with option.

  a. save the attachment to the office,

  b. right-click on the file and select open with the option to open the attachment according to their file extension.

  Example: If the .docx file extension, then it is word document or .pdf, it's Adobe.

  You can get the extension of a file by right clicking on the file and go to properties
