• Windows Explorer will not see a preview of the png files

  When I click on View, Extra large icons, large icons, medium icons or small icons to display an overview of png images, a generic picture but not the image itself. JPG files preview very well. Why png files will not display a preview?

  I've solved this one. The downloaded folder of icons was obviously some kind of folder zipped; The name was Free-Icons-Shimmer-01-Creative-Freedom.zip. I created a new folder, copied and pasted all the images of the original file to the new file and properly display thumbnails. I have no idea why. Just happy it worked.

• Window Movie Maker will not import a mp3 file get that a C: {file location} .mp3 error could not be imported

  OP: Window Movie Maker will not import an mp3 file. Why?

  I tried to imort a song from my music file which is in mp3 format, but the program won't. She won't tell me why, it just says: "C: {file location} .mp3 cannot be imported."  I imported 2 other songs that are the same exact format. Why is it cant import the file?

  Hello spardigus,

  1 - is the full error you get when you try to import the file?

  Some of the Mp3 files can be compressed in various formats. I suggest that you search information below and check out them if you are able to import the files.

  It might be possible that the file may be corrupted and is not readable by Movie Maker. I suggest that you copy the file to a different location on your computer and you are trying to import.

  Also check the size of the file. If it shows 0 bytes, there are good chances that the file may be damaged.

  I suggest that you try to convert this file to avi format using an Audio Converter. There are several converters which helps you convert the file in the required format. Convert the file and try to import.

  You can use your favorite search engine to find the program that will help convert the files.

• Windows Movie Maker will not publish my videos properly!

  Hey guys. anyway I publish a video Director and 15 Minute long play through it fine, but after its publication, and I watch the video file it freezes at the same image (the media player does not freeze, he continues to play through, the video comes out badly) and all the audio stops and then the screen blacks on entirely for the rest of the video. Does anyone have a solution to this? I'd appreciate any help. Thank you

  (2) what is the format of the file, which you try to publish a movie?

• Windows Movie Maker will not play

  I made a video for a school project. It was published and implemented well enough. I taped a cd, he brought to the school, and the video wouldn't play. How to make it compatible?

  It works that way.
  The video that you have recorded on the CD only plays in your computer.

  So that the video be played in other computers or DVD players, you need to burn video to a DVD using Windows DVD creation.

  Windows DVD creation is included in Vista Home premium and Ultimate.
  If you versio of Vista is not one of the above, you will need to install a 3rd party DVD Maker.

• Windows Movie Maker will not publish my movie - gets 6% & goes no further

  I recorded a movie and brought it into Windows Movie Maker without problems.  Then I edited the film (not to add anything or only pruned and spliced).  Now, I want to save the movie as a movie.  However when I do it, he won't get to 6% and then if freezes.  It won't convert everything yet, I even left it at night to convert (made sure my computer has not turned off the coast) and he did not always get from 6 percent.  Is there another way to change to the film of a project that I can run on a computer as a movie?  Or do you have a solution to get movie maker to work?   -Thank you

  I have exactly the same problem.  I imported the file as a wmv file, originally created by Gotowebinar.  I was able to edit and cut the file, but when I try to record on my computer, sometimes at 1% ^ and freezes.  I've updated all my drivers and still no improvement.  I use WMM 2.6, so there must be another problem of compatibility.

  =============================================
  What kind of editing you did and you have not added a music file?
  If_Yes_what was the format?

  Before you save it... try to go to... Tools / Options / Compatibility tab
  and uncheck the box 'All' filters / OK... then try to save.  If it still fails...

• Sometimes the clips in Windows Movie Maker will not play during preview and not at all after publication...

  Hello!  I just create a movie using Windows Movie Maker (HP Pavilion dv6000/Windows Vista Home Premium).  During the PREVIEW, the first part of the video of my film sometimes will not play (view) while the audio continues. Sometimes he will play (view).  All clips are saved in the right place, the file formats are correct, and everything else that I think is done correctly.  In addition, after the publication of the video, he did the same thing; some parts of the beginning is not playing (see) only the audio.  I believe that this can have started happening after a few times when an error message pops up saying something like "Video player has stopped responding, but has revived with success...» "or something like that.

  Now, I tried a few things to try to fix the problem.  I noticed that if I take the transitions and effects on the clips then they play but every time. I don't know why this happens only at the beginning of the movie and not all of the film since I also have clips with transitions and effects in the end.  Help!  This is my first time using this program/do a movie (and it's really good if I must say for me... he can win an Oscar! * smile *), but I wonder if I did something by mistake at the origin of this problem...

• Windows Movie Maker will not publish my movie on my computer

  I tried to post this video to my computer from Windows Movie Maker. The video is long, only 42 seconds, so I doubt that there is a problem of length.

  When I try to publish the video, a dialog box appears and says "Windows Movie Maker cannot publish the movie to the specified location. Verify that the original source files used in your movie are still available, that the publishing location is still available, that there is enough available disk space, and then try again. »

  I've checked everything and nothing seems wrong or irrelevant. I had to completely wipe my computer about two days due to the 'Blue screen of death' experience, but I was able to install any new drivers and restore my computer to its factory settings. I don't know what to do. Help, please!

  More than likely you are using one or more sources
  files that are not completely compatible with Movie maker.

  Several formats are apparently compatible with film
  Machine, but the most reliable choices are:

  Photos - bmp
  Video - wmv or dv - avi
  Audio - wav, wma, wmv

  Hi laura234646,

  Director of open windows,

  1. click on Toolsand then click Options.

  2. click on the compatibility tab.

  3. to turn off a filter, clear the check box next to the name of the video filter.

  If the problem persists,

  Step 2: Reduce hardware acceleration to check

  1. open display settings by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, on appearance and customization, personalization, and then clicking display settings.

  2. click on display settings, and then click Advanced settings.

  3. click on the Troubleshooting tab, and then click on change settings.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
