Media Player cannot connect to the server - Original COOD2EE7 error code

Tried media player - tools - options-network. Cannot configure the Protocol / the proxy settings. Streaming proxy settings area is empty.

Hello Adelek,

Thank you for posting.  It seems that you may have a firewall problem.  I that you would suggest to check your firewall settings to see if it's to allow access of media player.  I've also included some basic information about this error.

Please let me know if this helps you.

You got the C00D1198 error message when you use Windows Media Player. The following information can help you resolve the problem.

Unable to connect to the server

Windows Media Player cannot connect to the server that hosts the content you want to listen to. You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

  • The name of the server that hosts the content is not valid. If you typed an address Uniform Resource Locator (URL) in the open URL dialog box, verify that the file name is spelled correctly and that the path to the file is correct, and then try again. If you clicked a link on a Web page, the link isn't valid.

  • The server is not available (for example, the server is busy or not online). Try again later.

  • For Windows Media Player proxy server settings are not configured correctly. Verify that your proxy server settings are correct.

    To check your proxy server settings

    1. Click the arrow below the now playing tab, and then click More Options.

    2. Click the network tab.

    3. Check your settings in the Streaming proxy settings area.

      Note

      • If you don't know what your proxy server settings should be, on the network tab, select a Protocol, click on configure, then select Autodetect proxy settings or use the the proxy settings of the browser (available for HTTP protocol only).

  • Unable to connect to the server... error code 0 x 80070043

    Hey you all.

    We have a server on the network that contains the software and the data we use in a client/server parameter. To install the client side, we do the following from the workstation:

    START / RUN / \\10.20.0.77 which opens a window on the software on this server. Run us Setup.exe and everything is good on the client computer after installation is completed successfully.

    I have not had any problems to access to the / mapping for this server to Windows XP and Windows Vista Business 32 b, but on a Windows Vista Business 64-b system, I am no longer able to connect to the server via the net use or net shareor the map network drive feature. The following error occurs:

    "10.20.0.77" is not set up to establish a connection on port "File and printer sharing (SMB)" with this computer.

    It is possible to access this server by using a web browser, but the software install that way. The error code associated with the start was 0 x 80070043.

    I say "originally" because after researching on the net, a single thread suggested changing the NetBIOS default value " Enabled" for this network card Protocol. After you make this change, the error code as amended in 0 x 80070035, but the description remained the same as those listed above.

    Another thread said the server was to port 139 for mapping research, but Vista has been maps on port 445. Since I can't access 10.20.0.77 server to carry out changes, its installation rinetd solution and implement a file etc/rinetd.cfg to it remapped 445 to 139 is not possible, especially since our network is ENORMOUS and it could affect workstations running without any problem.

    Anyone here heard, or familiar with this type of problem for helping to find a solution?

    Thank you muchly. :)

    Hello Aj. Cole,.

    I have a couple of thoughts for you, but since you're talking about server and workstation, I guess that you are in a domain environment. If so, then your problem of not being able to connect to a server would be better served in a forum that would be dealing with server and domain issues.

    However, the error message, 0 x 80070043 - the network name cannot be found

    Ensure that you have sufficient access to SMB file transfers (this requires ports NetBIOS open because SMBS use the NetBIOS protocol to transfer data).

    You can also check to see if the Vista workstation has a gigabit card. If so, look for the following local strategy.

    Enable the policy local to always wait for the network at the start of the computer and logon . To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Start the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc).
    2. Expand Local Computer Policy\Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\logon.
    3. In the results pane, click always wait for the network when starting the computer and logon and then click Properties.
    4. On the setting tab, click active, and then click OK.
    5. Restart the workstation.

    You don't specify what your domain environment, so I don't know which forum send you as Windows 2003 SBS etc. Use the following link to find a good forum for you.

  • Windows media player cannot connect to the internet

    He will not play some native titles to a hard drive, as it wants to update the licenses, but he proposes to update by downloading the components but then said it was impossible to connect to the internet.   My computer is internet and everything works fine, except that Silverlight will not play my Netflix if I connect my Bluetooth headset until I open it.  What can I do? I can't find the windows media player settings.  I want HP with windows 8. Core i7.

    Hi Daniel,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    • The problem is specific to some of the tracks, or all?

    If you're having trouble playing a song or video, it may be because the file is protected by the management of digital rights (DRM). DRM is a technology that content providers sometimes use to ensure that the digital music and you get them video files are used and distributed according to their usage rights.

    Consider possible situations:

    a. When you try to play a file that is protected in the player, the Player checks if you have rights to use valid media on your PC. If you do, the player plays the file.

    If the player does not find valid media on your PC usage rights, or if rights to limit what you can do with the file, the player can not read the file. In this case, you will see an error message tells you why the file could not be read.

    b. it is protected by rights?

    (i) slide in the right edge of the screen and then click Search (if you use a mouse, point to the corner bottom right of the screen, move the mouse to the top and then click Find.).

    (ii) sign up Windows Media Player in the search box, and then tap or click Windows Media Player.

    (iii) pass on any or right click on a media file, press or click Properties and then press or click the rights of use. If the file is protected by rights, the license terms appear in the media used rights box, and you will see what usage rights you have. If nothing appears in the media used rights box, it might be because the file is not protected, the usage rights are not on your PC or that you are playing a file that is being listened to on your PC (for example, you play content subscription directly from an online store website).

    If the problem persists, I suggest you run the troubleshooter in Windows Media Player and check.

    a. press the Windows key + X , and then select Panel.
    (b) in the search box, type Troubleshooting , and then click on troubleshooting.
    c. click on show all and then click on settings of the Player Windows Media.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

    Well, given that the server is temporarily unavailable, you cannot connect. If you wish to contact the support team, you contact the Lync support team. Nothing to do with this forum.

  • Windows Media Player cannot play back the video DVD.

    Windows Media Player cannot play back the video DVD. You may need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try to lower your screen resolution and color quality settings.

    Original title: Windows Media Player cannot play back the video DVD. You may need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try to lower your screen resolution and color quality settings.

    I was troubleshooting video playback issues throughout the morning after the reconstruction of a machine with a fresh install of W7 Ultimate, shot a few questions there.

    The first and foremost reason I couldn't play THE VIDEOS was due to the ATI Rage video card that was in the machine, proved that this card was not compatible for playback of DVD video on W7.  No problem with the system of video files (.avi, .mpg, .mp4, etc.), only reading DVD.  Disabling this card and media player running with a standard VGA device allowed me to play regular DVD movies very well.

    Another question, I stumbled on was with burned copies of the DVD, it turned out that my system DVD players, (2, one is a HP630E and the other is a typical ATAPI DVD DD internal 8 x 16), have a problem with playing movies engraved on DVD - RW discs.  Playing discs DVD-R worked well on this system.

    So in your case I try to disable the video device and let the system first use a VGA Standard, if your video plays well then check with the making of video for a updated driver device, saying "you have made any changes" does not mean that the system did not have a bad patch somewhere...

    don't allow no asdm history

    Right now your nat 0 (NAT exemption) follows the access list:

    permit access ip 192.168.0.0 scope list inside_nat0_outbound 255.255.255.0 172.16.0.0 255.255.0.0

    Traffic back from your server to 192.168.0.4 in the pool of VPN (192.168.0.20 - 50) not correspond to this access list and thus be NATted. The TCP connection will not develop due to the failure of the Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF) - traffic is asymmetric NATted.

    Then try to add an entry to the list of access as:

    permit access ip 192.168.0.0 scope list inside_nat0_outbound 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0

    It's a bit paradoxical but necessary that your VPN pool is cut out in your interior space network. You could also do like André offers below and use a separate network, but you would still have to add an access list entry to exempt outgoing NAT traffic.

  • iPhone cannot connect to the server to iCloud

    Hello!

    My son IPhone cannot connect to the server iCloud. App Store is not available. In the iTunes and App Store from the settings app, I can't log in. IPhone resetting is not possible. Restore from iTunes on Mac is not possible, because find my iPhone is active on the iPhone, and it cannot be turned off, because in the pane of the application of the iCloud settings can't do anything until I have to accept the new terms and conditions, which cannot be made.

    WiFi on the phone works great with Safari, Mail, but cannot get new e-mail messages. The weather application does not connect.

    His iPad that is connected to the same iCloud account has no problem and there is no problem to connect to his account on iCloud.com.

    I tried to restart and reset hard iPhone and updated to 9.3.4 via iTunes on Mac (which went without pain, but doesn't change anything).

    Any help much appreciated!

    Does anyone have advice at all...? Aside from throwing the thing?

  • Help! Safari cannot connect to the server

    I really need help! I tried to forget the network and turning it back on, I have disabled the firewall and remove all extensions of safari. I seems that nothing works.

    I get the message 'Safari cannot connect to the server' on almost every site except this and facebook. I can't enter same Urbanoutfitters.com or ASOS. I just got the message "Safari could not connect to Server" I'm not a computer genius so hopefully someone here can help me...

    You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

    Step 1

    VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. It regenerates itself also if you try to remove it when it is run. To remove it, you must first start in safe mode temporarily disable the malware.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for other instructions.

    Step 2

    When running in safe mode, load the web page and then triple - click on the line below to select. Copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" can open. If this is the case, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

    There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. Please don't skip this step. Files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change for a few minutes, then they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.

    Step 3

    In the LaunchDaemons folder, there may be one or more files with the name of this form:

    com Apple.something.plist

    When something is a random string, without the letters, different in each case.

    Note that the name consists of four words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com Apple.builins.plist

    com Apple.cereng.plist

    com Apple.nysgar.plist

    There may be one or more items with a name of the form:

    com.something.plist

    Yet once something is a random string, without meaning - not necessarily the same as that which appears in one of the other file names.

    These names consist of three words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com.semifasciaUpd.plist

    com.ubuiling.plist

    Sometimes there are items (usually not more than one) with the name of this form:

    com.something .net - preferences.plist

    This name consists of four words (the third hyphen) separated by periods. Typical example:

    com.jangly .net - preferences.plist

    Drag all items in the basket. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    Examples of legitimate files located in the same folder:

    com.apple.FinalCutServer.fcsvr_ldsd.plist

    com Apple.Installer.osmessagetracing.plist

    com Apple.Qmaster.qmasterd.plist

    com Apple.aelwriter.plist

    com Apple.SERVERD.plist

    com Tether.plist

    The first three are clearly not VSearch files because the names do not match the above models. The last three are not easy to distinguish by the name alone, but the modification date will be earlier than the date at which VSearch has been installed, perhaps several years. None of these files will be present in most installations of Mac OS X.

    Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.

    If you are not sure whether a file is part of the malware, order the contents of the folder by date modified I wrote in step 2, no name. Malicious files will be grouped together. There could be more than one such group, if you attacked more than once. A file dated far in the past is not part of the malware. A folder in date dated Middle an obviously malicious cluster is almost certainly too malicious.

    If the files come back after you remove the, they are replaced by others with similar names, then either you didn't start in safe mode or you do not have all the. Return to step 1 and try again.

    Step 4

    Reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

    ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

    and click on

    Set on the current Page

    If you use Firefox or Chrome web browser, remove the extensions or add-ons that you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them.

    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

    Step 5

    The malware lets the web proxy discovery in the network settings. If you know that the setting was already enabled for a reason, skip this step. Otherwise, you should undo the change.

    Open the network pane in system preferences. If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Click the Advanced button, and then select Proxies in the sheet that drops down. Uncheck that Auto Discovery Proxy if it is checked. Click OK, and then apply.

    Step 6

    This step is optional. Open the users and groups in the system preferences and click on the lock icon to unlock the settings. In the list of users, there may be some with random names that have been added by the malware. You can remove these users. If you are not sure whether a user is legitimate, do not delete it.

  • Outlook: "cannot get mail" "cannot connect to the server.

    April 6 at 7:00 PM CST, my iPhone 5 running iOS stopped syncing with my Microsoft Outlook account 9.3.1.

    I did have problems with my iPhone sync with my Outlook email over the past 5 years so far.

    My Outlook account is to these servers-

    web mail:
    https://blu183.mail.live.com/

    for Windows Live Mail 2012:
    https://mail.Services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/sync.aspx

    I tried to delete my Outlook account from my iPhone and re-establishment and the account Outlook 'checks' correctly - but this does not solve the problem.

    The iPhone keeps displaying a pop-up message:
    "Cannot get mail" "cannot connect to the server.

    My iPhone is syncing correctly with my Gmail accounts and iCloud.

    Also, I created my Outlook account on iPad to my daughter who is running iOS 8.1.2 and I have the same problem.

    This seems to be a situation of the Apple servers, do not sync with Microsoft servers.

    Thank you

    It seems that Outlook is to have questions, not only with iPhones but W10, see this thread:
