Media Player recognize my mp3 player but said there is no files on the device, even after the sync successfully

I have not hooked to my mp3 player up to my netbook in age, but today I wanted to manage my songs I did. Media Player recognized my camera (Sansa c240), but it that there are no files on my device. It scared me because I had listened to just the day before and there was a lot of files on it! I checked the drive itself and the files were all still there. Media Player told to sync files on the device, so I did and it successfully on the device. However, even though the songs were synchronized with the device, Media Player still insists that there is no top file! I checked the player and 3 files synchronize had were there. Help!

I use Windows 7 Starter on a netbook Samsung. Thanks for all the tips ():

  • Windows media player11.error windows media player cannot play dittos theplayer might not support the file type or might not support the codec used to compress the file

    • y at - it software that could help me.which will work with my Media Player to convert almost any format or find the good codec.so I can watch my videos, I have downloaded on my documents.there need some software out there that would do this work.so my media player 11 play my videos.

    Hi Bbdunford,

    O what is the file format?

    O if it works well before?

    Today, there are hundreds of audio and video codecs in use. Some were created by Microsoft, but the vast majority of codecs have been created by other companies, organizations or individuals. By default, the Windows operating system and the player includes a number of the most popular codecs, such as MP3, Windows Media Audio and Windows Media Video.

    There might be times, however, when you want to read the content that is compressed with a codec that does not include Windows or the default player. In many cases, you can download the necessary codec on the web for free or for a fee. And, in some cases, the player can automatically use the codecs installed by other reading programs and the creation of digital media on your computer.

    You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

    1. the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

    2 - the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.

    You can try the steps and check if it makes a difference.

    1. in order to determine what codec was used with a specific file, play the file in the player, if possible. When the file is playing, right-click the file in the library, and then click Properties. On the file tab, look at the sections of video codec and Audio codec.

    2 download and install Codecs by clicking on the PLAYER tab and check. To connect to the Internet and automatically download Codecs player

    3. configure the protocol settings

    On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Network tab.

    In the Streaming protocols area, select all the check boxes Protocol.

    When connecting to a server running Windows Media Services, Windows Media Player tries to use all selected protocols.

  • Windows Media Player 11 Date added function - please stop repeating the date for EACH file.

    I have been using Media Player 9, decided to upgrade to Windows Media Player 11, and the only thing I can not stand on Player 11 is how it sorts Date added media files.  In Player 9 when I chose the column Date added, the program would list all the files on a given under a SINGLE date.  With Windows Media Player 11 it lists EACH file with a date so that instead of see Tuesday, December 14, 2010 once and then listing all of the files under it, I see Tuesday, December 14, 2010 about twenty times.  I download podcasts once a week and dump it on my phone, but it's a worry now.  Is it possible to stop Windows Media Player 11 to repeat the date again and again and force him to the date that the list only once?  Think back to Player 9.  Alex

    Hi Alex103,

    It's design in Windows media player 11 and it is also included in Windows Media player 12.

    However, you can uncheck this option, follow the steps below:

    a. open windows Media player

    b. right-click on one of the sorted column

    c. click Choose column

    d. uncheck data added

  • Receive the message error "Windows Media Player cannot extract one or more tracks from the CD"

    Original title: Windows Media Player 12 in Windows 8 - will not tear, will not allow rip parameter changes

    Recently started Windows Media Player displays this error message when I tried to rip CDs: "Windows Media Player cannot extract one or more tracks from the CD." When I checked the rip settings, I found that no location has been chosen, even if I had chosen a location when I first set up WMP over a year ago. When I clicked on the "Change location" button, nothing happened, so I'm not able to choose a file location. I downloaded and Fix It (http://support.microsoft.com/mats/windows-media-player-diagnostic-Windows-8/en-us) from Microsoft allows WMP and the library, hoping this would solve the problem, but the problem persists. After that, I also found that none of the rip settings can be changed, not only the location of the file. I get an error message that "ripping settings could not be applied" when I try to change anything on the tab music Rip under Options. I found a support of forum responses that mention a registry fix but does not provide any details on how to achieve this. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    Were there any changes (hardware or software) to the computer before the show?

    Ripping allows you to put the titles of your audio CD on your PC. When you rip the tracks, they become digital files on your PC.

    There are two places in the Player library where you can customize your settings and better to make ripping work:

    • In the Rip settings menu (with less choice customization).

    • In the Options dialog box (with several choices of customization).

    Method 1: run the tool library, Windows Media Player and Windows Media Player settings and check if the extraction is possible.

    Step 1:

    a: press the logo Windows + O to open the search box.
    b: Type Troubleshooting, press ENTER.

    c: now, click on programs.

    d: and then click Windows Media Player  library.

    Step 2:

    a: press the logo Windows + O to open the search box.
    b: Type Troubleshooting, press ENTER.

    c: now, click on programs.

    d: and then click Windows Media settings.

    Method 2: Perform the steps from the link below and see if it helps.
