• Music files are not listed in the Windows Media Player library

  Music files were deleted from Windows Media Player. The need for a Solution.

  AT & T Communication Manager, who gets my mobile internet card online, asked if he could deal with some updates.  I had only had the camera for a few days and assumed he was talking about some AT & T software.

  Next thing I know he turned my internal computer to the outside.  Washed and folded it carefully but seems threw things into the pockets now.  I had to hunt for my documents, but a lot of things are different, changed my toolbars, settings on Open Office.  Cannot access some files.  He was asked to record a program I had a lot of time.  Nothing in the Windows Media Player I had the program adds a big chunk of my record mp3 files music.  But I think that much of the music in my eMusic account, which now has nothing in it, can be conveniently added (unless I'm going one by one I think).  Moreover, my eMusic Download Manager is empty.

  I want to reverse sync my mp3 player but don't know how.  Should I get Windows Media PLayer 11?  I have Vista.

  Thank you very much.  And if you can help without talking over my head I would appreciate it.

• video files preview 'this file cannot be previewed because of an error in the windows media player manager rich low."

  I used to be able to watch VIDEO (including the .avi) files in the preview pane in windows Explorer, but it has since stopped working. This change took place after the update to the latest version on windows media player. (version 12.0.7601.18150)

  attempted fixes:
  1. in options from files of the variations of tab - all reviews of checking / unchecking "always show icons, never thumbnails" and "show previewhandlers in the preview pane. the first has nothing to do with this problem. However, the 'show previewhandlers... '. "when checked this error message is displayed in the preview pane" "this file cannot be previewed because of an error in the windows media player rich preview Manager." When unchecked the poster preview pane a thumbnail with the icon of the program it is supposed to open, in the present case, WMP, this correction allows the preview of the PHOTO but NOT of VIDEO. " also I reset by default, of course.
  2. they also examined the options under system settings panel-advanced control and troubleshooting without success.

  all the less someone ' one can confirm that there is a problem with windows media player? or it comes from windows Explorer?

  UPDATE:

  I found this temp. The difficulty of the problem:

  This shows that the problem is with WMPRPH.exe (Windows Media Player Rich Preview Handler) it happens when wmprph farm, now if someone knows how to impose this program to continue to work as it should which would solve my problem.

• I have music files in my playlists that I can't make it appear in the Windows Media Player library

  Original title: Player Windows medis library - Playlist trouble

  -J' have music files in my playlists that I can't make it appear in the library - how can I sync the two up - I tried the usual fall / drag...

  Hello

  1. is the specific issue of the reading list?

  2 are you able to add other songs in the Windows Media Player library?

  3 did you changes to the computer before the show?

  The Player library is the location in the player that lists all of the music, videos and photos on your computer.

  When you play a media file on your computer or a removable storage device, the file is automatically included in the Player library, so you can access it directly from the reader. And if you have access to remote media stored on other computers on your network, you can change the player settings to add those files remotely to the Player library when you play them. The reader does not automatically add a file that you play from removable media, such as a CD or DVD.

  Since you aren't able to add songs to the library, you can try the following and see if they 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://KB.mozillazine.org/Windows_Media_Player#Missing_plugin

  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

  Hello

  Flash Player and Windows Media Player are not interchangeable.

  Like many things on the web, the Flash Player local storage can be put to bad use. This does not necessarily mean the Flash Player without scruples or bad product - it's the sites Web/people who abuse of this (depending on your point of view).

  You can configure Flash Player to block local storage on your computer. This does not necessarily all the features of Flash Player - for example with my set of Flash Player to block local storage I can still see videos on YouTube.

  The controls for the Flash Player local storage can be found here: *

  Start-> Control Panel-> Flash Player (32-bit) (Tab instorage )

  There is a good explanation of privacy and local storage of Flash Player here:
