Sharing multimedia files has been disabled because a windows required setting or a component has changed.

Earlier today, I was a game on my Xbox 360 and decided I want to play music in the background, using the guide of 360.

I went to "Select Music", searched my PC in the devices menu, and it does not appear. This has happened before, I just figured out my PC was in place. I went to the 360 Dashboard and looked back to the server. He has not yet shown upward.

I went to Windows Media Player on the PC that I share the media selected in the dropdown under library and went to share multimedia files. (Here's where it gets confusing...)

He gave me a message saying "sharing multimedia files has been disabled because a Windows setting required or a component has been changed." I hit very well, and I went back to the sharing of multimedia files. Now, I had the option to check the box "share my media". I checked, hit OK, made sure everything was good to go. The unit has not yet appear on the dashboard. I went back to the sharing of multimedia files. To my surprise, I received always «sharing multimedia files has been disabled...» »

This is the part of the confusion: if I turn on media sharing, Windows it cuts back.

I tried all the solutions online that I could find, which includes deleting the files in the Windows Media AppData\Microsoft folder. Register a dll to the administrator. Ensuring that you have the "Windows Media" folder. All take very well.

Basically I narrowed down it to: nothing works.

Each person could fix their problem by using the solutions proposed in other posts on other forums/blogs. Mine is recurring. In addition, my media is on a separate internal hard drive, which I added to the Windows Media Player files to add multimedia elements. I went and deleted from here. I still have the problem of sharing.

All said Microsoft is to restore your computer to a previous state. It's not really useful. I don't want to go just restore. I want to fix it where. In addition: restoration would not help, I don't know how long this problem exists, but I have not known about it.


-Very well, after a fresh reformat the hard drive and re-installing Windows, I finally reduced the problem.

I have not had ANY problems with the computer... Until I installed my Adobe CS5 Master Collection again.

It turns out that the part of the Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended software called Adobe Presenter 7 causes the sharing to go haywire.

I deleted Adobe Presenter 7, and just like that, sharing has increased again.

In addition, Adobe Acrobat 9 was causing my sidebar to go haywire, so I advanced and which takes off as well.

Have not had a problem since.

    This means that you don't have WRITE permission in the destination folder.

    You should:

    1. In Lightroom, determine the exact destination folder (it is on the right side of the import dialog box under Destination)
    2. Change the permissions in your operating system on this specific file WRITE permission; OR Change the destination folder in a place where you don't have WRITE permission
  • I installed "HP smart web printing" and went to the post OFFICE and he said that it has been disabled because firefox does not support this extension. Is it possible in the near future to consider adding this EXT compatible program?

    It is compatible with the Explorer, but I'd really prefer to work with Firefox, but I also really like this HP program. Thank you

    It's HP to make it compatible with Firefox. As far as I KNOW, this add-on was not compatible with Firefox for a few years already, like maybe the version of Firefox 3.5. I used this add-on in 2006 and 2007 and gave up using because HP has always been very loose on update when a new version of Firefox has been released. As it took months of HP 9 update to a new version of Firefox and then 3 months later, a new version of Firefox was released and it stop working again.

  • MAR to location of the file has changed?

    Hello

    We use MAR patch files automatically Firefox by https://wiki.mozilla.org/Software_Update:Manually_Installing_a_MAR_file. However, the http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/latest/ directory is no longer exists and has been replaced by a file README.txt document how to use web download.mozilla.org .

    Is there a new location for the files last update MAR, or better still, a way to use the web service of releases to get a MAR?

    Thank you

    You must download the files of MAR of the repertoire of the current version.
    The most recent release directory no longer exists as you have noticed.

    You can construct a URL like this with the current version and the version that you want to update.

    This will give you a MAR file if this partial update is available.

  • Color swatch file has changed!

    Hello

    A month ago, I created a file of color of our new company "colors". I put the swatch file (* .ase) in all the respective directories for InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop. Well, here it is a month later and I tried to load this file. And it is gone! When I load, no change at all will fit in the Swatches palette. One thing I had to do during the month delete InDesign 5.5.1 because some of my plug-ins are not working. Thus, during this period I was on 5.5 I ever tried to access this swatch file. But, when my provider plugin updated their software, then, I topped up InDesign 5.5.1. I don't think that this has nothing to do with this problem. But, in any case, it was a lot of work.

    Thank you

    Peter

    You can redo the .ase of the original document file? I confess that I have no idea of how the content could going to miss, but I'll assume that you are right, and recreating things is probably the fastest thing you can do.

  • My photo storage file has changed

    When I went in my PICTURES folder I see yellow folders with name tags.
    I would choose a folder named and I opened the folder.
    Previously, I'd like to see a version of small size of each and all the pictures in this folder.
    NOW, what I see is the same graph mainly BLUE color which resembles an island on a sea of blue under a blue sky.
    How change this blue icon island on all my photos back to see the real picture?

    Try this:

    In, click the small arrow button displays explore, click on "large icons". In 'Tools' menu click 'Folder Options '.... ». Under "Advanced settings", "files and folders". Click to uncheck the box to always "show icons, never thumbnails". Click on apply and OK buttons to exit.

  • in my file has changed recently, I constantly abt 10 thous of the jpeg & xml documents that are displayed.

    where they come from & how stop them from appearing. need me abt 1 HR to delete all the. Sharon R Bertling

    That's why I recommended the steps I did in my previous post - although it seems as if you have not yet tried.  They would systematically eliminiate possibilities for why these files keep re-appearance.  What AV program use you - I mean the one that you use are the Trojan horse in the first place (and I assume you are using yet)?  Do you remember the name of the virus?  It is possible that, despite the fact that you re-installed the system you likely to be infected (still or once again)-, that's why I have recommended to several programs different anti-malware initially.  The other stages are designed to verify your system files in an attempt to fix anything that causes this problem.  The last step is similar to a re - install except it does not affect your data, programs or settings - but will put your system to its original state (Yes, you will have a lot of updates to catch up) if all goes well after the first step to eradicate all remaining malware that may affect your system files and caused this problem (or still cause this problem).

    When you say that you get a completely different window when you type anywhere - do you hear when you perform an advanced search by clicking the search everywhere hyperlink?  What is the difference - I mean, what is different about it?  You can send us a screenshot?  Generally, research shows the folders and files and don't separate them into folders as folder recently changed (even though it may include elements that it contained - especially one request search everywhere).  If yours are separated in a recently modified file list then that certainly does not work according to the specifications (and makes me think the malware system file changes or malicious software).  Which version of Windows Vista you're using (I have 32 bit Vista Business SP2)?

    Thank you.  Please answer these questions and try these procedures.  We will do our best to help you, but we need your help.

  • Prompt removal of file has changed.

    My PC, when I right click and delete a folder, would always have the usual dialogue, "Are you sure you want to delete this file?" with the option "Yes/No". Since a rebate to zero, without modification of known files, it displays now a more advanced dialogue, showing a picture of the item and a more defined description, saying that you need to go to the control panel to remove the item from my PC. Is it possible to go back to her simplified look it?

    The box changes according to the item that you delete.  The message type "go to the control panel" appears only for icons that require such action.  If you remove, say, a normal text file or Excel spreadsheet, you always see the dialog box that you can remember.
