"Show devices on" emptiness of streaming media

• Cannot depend on streaming media

  This issue is very frustrating. I expect contact Microsoft himself by e-mail on this topic however their site seems to think that my bloody product ID has 'expired '. I really hope that you can provide the answers.

  The fundamental issue is that I want to turn on Media Streaming (in Windows Media Player), but I can't. The reason is that the drop-down list box for "show devices on:" (networking and sharing/Media Center Streaming Options) is completely empty, so I can't select anything physically. To see what I want to say, click here to see a screenshot of the problem.

  How the hell can I actually get around this problem and turn it on? Seriously, I want to turn it on so I can use it for streaming on my Xbox 360 when I'm playing.

  Thanks in advance to anyone who can help! (By the way, if it makes any difference, I am on Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium edition)

  you use the windows firewall? have you disabled? or are you using a
  third-party firewall?
   
  Uninstall and reinstall the Media Player and Media Center. Click on start and type
  "turn windows features on and out". You must uncheck, apply, restart windows,
  check again and apply, stop and try again

• Cannot enable the streaming media to other devices on my network?

  When I try to install Media Streaming on Win 7 Home Premium 64 - bit, using Control Panel/Network Sharing Center/Media Streaming Options, I find the following strange problem.  The "show devices on:" drop-down list has no content and does not allow me to select anything.  On my Win 7 wife's computer, this dropdown allows of me selcet is "all networks" or "local networks".  I discovered this error when I bought an XBox 360 and setup of Windows media Center on it.  Windows Media center on the XBox can connect to my PC and play all the music in my library of music through Media Center, but the XBox can't find my pc on the network using the music library or picture library.  My PC does not list the XBox when I "see the network computers or devices", but nor does my wife's PC.

  I am confused as to how my XBox has been so easily connected to my PC and continues to work perfectly in the application of the XBox, Windows Media Center, and still fails to find my PC or browse its contents through its other music/photo/media applications.

  I have no problem connecting to XBox Live or on the internet.

  Any ideas?

• Vista Home Premium Device Manager empty

  After plugging in a USB stick for laptop my wife and successfully copying data to the hard disk, I noticed that there is no icon to the icon 'Remove hardware safely' in the system tray.  I checked under the taskbar properties to make sure that the icon was set to 'Show' and it was, but still no icon.

  Then, I opened the Device Manager, which shows nothing - completely empty.  I also noticed that my network connections were empty as well.

  I googled and found several forums display solutions for this problem with XP but not Vista.  I checked services and reviewed the registry as suggested in many forums, but have not yet resolved the issue.

  I also applied SP2 of Vista in the hope that it would help; He did not.  He has also deleted all my previous restore points if this isn't an option at this point.

  I'm ready to re - install the OS but prefers to find the problem and fix it.  All suggestions welcome.

  You are welcome.

  Malware can cause permanent damage to your system files.

  The next step is a repair installation.

• Streaming media lights

  I'm trying to set up the streaming media so I can watch videos on my Xbox but I'm having problems. When I click the turn on media streaming button in WMP, nothing happens it looks like he's trying to do something for about half a second and that's all, it's just sitting there and the OK button is dimmed again. Any ideas? I looked and a bunch of other forums and some people are having the same problem, but nobody has an answer.

  Hi yagsirepusrj,

  Please use the Microsoft Windows Forum.

  Please check if you can turn it on in a clean boot environment:

  Clean boot

  1) click on the type of button start "msconfig" (without the quotes) in the search box and press ENTER.

  Note: If you are prompted, please click on continue in the window User Account Control (UAC).

  2) click on the 'Services' tab, check "Hide all Microsoft Services" and click on 'Disable All' (if it's not gray).

  Then, restart the computer. When the "System Configuration utility" window appears, please check the "don't show this message or launch the System Configuration utility when Windows starts" box, then click OK.

  NOTE: we can return to a normal startup by running msconfig again and checking on Normal startup on the general tab.

  In the clean boot environment, applications and third-party services are disabled, please check if you can turn on media streaming at this time.

• Windows 7; Windows firewall prevents the discovery network, files and printers, sharing, public folder sharing and streaming media

  Windows Home Premium SP1, completely up to date.  Windows Firewall is enabled.

  Try to keep the file sharing and printers on a home network.  Try changing the settings on the control panel; All Control Panel items: Center network and sharing; Advanced sharing settings.

  When I try to change the option buttons for sharing, then click on save changes at the bottom of the page, the screen jumps to the network and sharing Center.  Object entering the settings advanced, no parameters have been recorded.   The comoputer restarting does not help.  I checked that the following services are running and set to automatic according to the http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/cant-turn-on-network-discovery-and-media-streaming/98654e71-4bff-4dd3-acec-ffc3524d44a4;

  When I stop the Windows Firewall service, I can activate the sharing I want.  Of course the windows firewall prevents sharing I would do on my network.

  I'm uncomfortable with Miss having a firewall work on my computer.  How to configure my Win 7 machine windows firewall to allow communications with my homegroup?  I tried to restore the default values.  This did not allow the communication.  I tried to find the homegroup settings in the advanced settings of the windows firewall.  No luck there.

  What should I do to configure my windows firewall to allow network discovery and file sharing of printers and media streaming and sharing?

  Hi stephanie,.

  Thanks for joining us out on Microsoft Community Forums.

  Looks like the Windows firewall prevents the discovery network, files and printers, sharing, public sharing of files and streaming media. We will analyze and identify the cause of the problem.

  You have a third-party antivirus installed on the computer program?

  Method 1:

  To turn on network discovery
  
  1. Open advanced sharing settings by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type network, click Network and sharing Center, and then, in the left pane, click on change settings for sharing advanced.
  2. click on the chevron to expand the current network profile.
  3. click turn on network discovery and then click on save changes. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide
  confirmation.

  The article below explains all about the network discovery:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/enable-or-disable-network-discovery

  If any of these responses not solve the issue, let us then run the sfc scan and check if any file system is corrupt. I also recommend to perform a clean boot in order to find the root cause of the problem.

  Method 2:

  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  a. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

  b. type the following command and press ENTER:
  sfc/scannow

  The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
