My playlists will not be displayed in media player

I have WMP 12 on windows 7 ulitmate. Recently, I installed a 120 GB SSD as my main drive. Unfortunately I had to put all my music on my secondary drive 1 TB because I have about 63 GB of music and add more each month (constraints). The problem I have is my playlists not appearing is not in media player. I thought that the problem was because I put the files in another drive, rather than the drive C. I copied and pasted the playlist file in my C drive, and he showed fine. That is until I have re - open WMP when I want to listen to music again and all my playlists have disappeared. I have to delete, copy and paste selections whenever I open media player.

Something to add to this strange problem is when I want to add a song to a playlist and click on add to 'additional reading lists' all my playlists are listed twice! Though probably because I have all my playlists saved so I can rebonding them when I need them.

Can anyone help?

  • Why Firefox 5 will not see the Windows Media Player Plugin?

    Hello useful Mozilla expert,

    When I click on a link to play a standard WMV video in Firefox 5, in the movie player window it is said 'Click here to download the'.

    When I click on 'Click here to download the plugin' in Firefox 5, I get a panel of Firefox that says I need to Windows Media Player 11, but I already Windows Media Player 12 and the browser Firefox WMP plugin installed on this computer... it worked fine in Firefox 3.6.

    If I then click to install the Windows Media Player 11 plugin, it goes to another Firefox sign that says: ' no plug-ins have been installed, Windows Media Player 11 - no available '. Then, there is a "manual install" button, and when I click, it takes me to a third party plugin site called 'InteroperabilityBridges.com' which has a plugin Firefox WMP dated April 2007 available.

    Here is the link he gives... http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/Windows-Media-Player-Firefox-plugin-download

    When I check my Panel "programs and features" in Windows 7 on my control panel, I can see that I have already installed something called, "Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin" installed and it is dated 10/24/2010 and it is version 1.0.0.8

    Despite having already the required plugin installed and showing in my control panel, programs and features, this WMP plugin does not appear on my plugins Firefox 5 Panel. So I tried to re - install with the installer of origin and available to the above URL Setup (they seem to be the same, except my installer of origin has a date of 2010).

    I also tried the 'fix' option in the setup of the plugin... it still does not appear in Firefox 5, nor this browser will play a WMV file in the integrated test related troubleshooting page plugin Mozilla WMP player, or other pages that embedded the WMV players.

    So the question is, why is Firefox 5 demanding I install a Windows Media Player plug-in older, version 1.0.0.8 of 2007 when I have already installed...? and why it won't work?

    I went through all the troubleshooting information in Mozilla and go to the page dedicated to this subject and nothing works...
    https://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/using%20The%20Windows%20Media%20Player%20plugin%20with%20firefox

    http://blogs.technet.com/b/Port25/archive/2007/04/16/Windows-Media-Player-plug-in-for-Firefox.aspx

    What is the solution? The upgrade again for the 3rd time in the last 2 months, this is not an option... I'm tired of going through all the difficult steps of the upgrade and find what has changed and rejected another upgrade of the browser Mozilla and re - install plugins, extensions, modules and customizations and repair everything that does not work, as I always do now with Firefox 5.

    It seems that as soon as I get most things squared away in a new browser from Mozilla, then they came out with three new releases, so when I'm still struggling with the FF5 version (as I am now) there will be version 9 I get annoying constant 'reminders' upgrade to.

    Thank you

  • CD will not rip using Windows Media Player in windows 7

    I just had Windows 7 a few weeks ago and have had no problems until now to rip CD.

    However now it shows "windows media player is unable to extract one or more tracks from the cd.

    I went to TOOLS - OPTIONS - DEVICES - DRIVE, click on use a connection error (read both rip are default to digital) no change

    I have gone to tab EXTRACT music and tried to drag the bar in the quality of the Audio and/or modify the rip format, but when I do I get "ripping settings could not be suppied" and they reset to original settings.

    I went into the registry editor and delete the MP3 encoding rate low and still no change - it just keeps going give me the "windows media player cannot extract one or more tracks from the cd.

    any ideas?

    Open WMP

    Go to Tools - Options - Rip music and see if you have a location, that music is being ripped off. I did not when I looked, it was empty.

    Then go to organize - manage libraries - music, it should be a location of folder of music here, otherwise click on "add" button and add the music folder.

    Now do the same for the other 3 libraries, videos, pictures and recorded tv, all should have places, remove those without a location.

    try to check out again.

    I hope like me you will be out of service again.

  • DRM will not play on Windows Media Player

    For years, I've been downloading audiobooks (WMA) of Overdrive and listen to them on my computer.  The DRM has never been a problem.  Suddenly he is now.  Whenever I try to play a protected file, I get the "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem when reading this file."

    I scanned this forum and others.  I carefully and repeatedly followed the instructions given here.  I used ResetDRM (once again, repeatedly).  And the result is always the same.  I can play video files, mp3s and wma files not protected to my heart's content.  No problem.  But DRM won't work.  After that I run ResetDRM, WMP says to update software to play a DRM file.  Let him do it.  And then I get the SAME error.

    I am at a loss.  Can someone help me?  Please?

    Hello

     
     
    1. what operating system is installed on the computer?
    2. are you referring to Windows Media Player?
    3. What is the file format of the song?
     
     
    When you play a file on your computer or on the Internet, the Player automatically adds the file to your library if it isn't already in your library. The reader does not automatically add a file that you play from removable storage media, a device removable storage, or on a shared network folder. For example, if you play a file that is stored on a CompactFlash card a data CD, or in a shared folder on another computer on your network, the player will not automatically add the file to your library.

  • The music will not be displayed on walkman

    Hello

    I just got the xperia z1 yesterday compact and im having problems with the walkman application. First music lags all the time, to play music from sd card. I have like 500 songs on it. So, I read on a forum that I need to move songs from internal storage, so I moved as 150 songs and just delete the other older songs because it took too long to cut.

    So now I got the songs from internal storage and everything works very well and smoothly. So now, I tried to download some songs that I lost but it will not be displayed on walkman app but it made file Commander and he also one time, but can't find on walkman app.

    Then I found more information in different forums and I read that I have to go to settings > apps > storage media > clear data. The data that I had to delete looked like only 14MB. So I did this and rebooted the phone, but when I returned on walkman app he revealed nothing. It only says "no content available. But when I go to the file Commander all if my songs are still there. I rebooted my phone like 6 times already, but usually still appear.

    Please let me know if you have the same problem or solution. Thank you :-)
