  I can't seem to open all the links on Facebook or other websites without getting a pop up saying, «I need to update my HD media player» How can I stop this from happening? I tried to uninstall MacKeeper, Niceplayer and MacPlayer without success. I guess there are still a few hidden files somewhere on my computer that I have no idea how to get rid of. I also googled one forum mac how to get rid of the problem and within 5 seconds, I am immediately directed to a site that tells me I have to update my player. Help!

• DRM component problem, can't update Windows Media Player security

  I try to use my OverDrive and I have this same problem of 'a problem has occurred in the DRM component. Contact microsoft support"with the button unclickable on the link I see that many others have had. I looked at previous answers for them and I have renamed my DRM folder to DRMbackup, changed my proxy on Windows media player settings, troubleshooted the patch use windows media he asked (including reinstall them WMP), cleared my cookies in IE and firefox, and the update button is unclickable. I've also been running IE as an administrator. This is ridiculous. I just click the button to update my DRM and get on with it (I'm not worried about the previously protected songs) what else can I try not to mention that from another computer? I've been troubleshooting for more than 3 hours!

  I had the same frustration. Finally resolved with instructions to: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976590.

  I hope this helps.

• MicroSoft update for Media Player shows never like a blocked 'Pop-up-Message' on My Favorites bar?

  I had A Hacker today try to invade my computer through «free of the anti-viral» software download  I couldn't get the window closed so I shut down the computer. I called "The Geek Squad" and they said it was safe to start. "Two hours later, I received a request via my bookmarks bar, (a message had been blocked) that,"microsoft"wanted to update my windows media player.  I have never noticed an update come Microsoft like that then I saw deny access. Is it possible for an upcoming MicroSoft update in this way or how can I check the message without activating any download?  Later, I tried to find a Media Player update on the MicroSoft Web site, but did not find anything, however I'm not sure I was able to navigate as well as necessary to get the answer. Please help me.

  donpatchi,
  For Windows Media Player, it has settings to verify updates of the separate drive of the Windows Update service.  If you open WMP, click Tools > Options > Player tab, you can change the frequency of when checking updates.  Also if you click help there is an option to check for updates.  So if ever you see an update for WMP and you don't know if it is authentic, you can always start the process to search for updates yourself.

  If Windows update is set to automatic, then you should see a notification for these updates come from the notification bar (the area of the taskbar near the clock).  As with WMP, if you ever have a question or a question about an update, you can start Windows Update yourself and watch the updates that are currently available prior to installation.

• Microsoft should update Windows Media Player to play all kinds of videos and upgrade the Windows Photo Viewer to open all types of photos

  Original title: microsoft should spend there windows media player that can play any type of vedio.it will traditionally use media player to download other players instead.

  Microsoft should there be upgraded windows media player that can play any type of vedio.it will traditionally use media player to download other players instead. and also upgrad windows photo viewer to open all types of photos...

  The latest version of Windows Media Player that could open almost any multimedia file was version 6.4. Starting from this version, Microsoft have not been allowed to allow WMP to play almost any type of media file, and they were taken to court top.

  That's why Microsoft does not now permit. Apparently, the decisions of the Court are there to give other media players, including Apple stuff, a foothold in the market. I don't think Microsoft 3rd party codecs use same lawyer in case they have trouble.

• When downloading music from Media Player on a USB key, how to get music aired in the order I put them on the list of synchronization?

  I find that when I play the USB in my car stereo, all the parts play in the order in which I originally recorded my media player CD.  I drag synchronize them in the order that I want but they play seemingly at random, but I think it might be chronilogical order of their recording in Media Player.

  Hello Warner,

  The best way I found to do this is to create folders on the USB drive and then use a different folder for each album of the music.
  If you want music in a particular order, change the name of the file to include a 001 at the beginning, for example, 001 - songname.mp3 music
  Do this for all the tracks in the order you want and software of the car detects the number and play music in that order.
  I hope this helps.
