Want to play songs from flash drive without putting them on my computer

We have recently improved our computers at work and I can not only plug my USB key and they have to play the songs.  Now media player wants to put the files on the computer, and since it is a work computer I can't do.  Is it possible to play the songs on the flash drive and not copied to the computer.  Thank you

What version of Windows and what media player do you use?

You should be able to open Windows Explorer, find the music files on the flash drive and double-click a song file to play without adding it to the library.  You should also be able to modify the settings of the player of music for him ask that the library is on the Flash DRIVE instead of the hard drive.
Note: If your company does not allow you to copy the music files on your hard drive, they can also frown on you insert a non encrypted flash drive.  I don't know fact.  Actually, there is a Windows policy that prevents installation of unencrypted flash drives.  You can check if your COMPUTER policies allow unencrypted flash drives mounting.

  • I just pulled out a flash drive without eject!

    I am technically challenged!  I just released flash drive without ejecting it.  I put it back in, but he does not appear.  Can we do anything?

    Reboot and you'll probably be back in business again.

    If you use a hub, it might be prudent to USB devices (1) draw their connectors, (2) to zero and (3) re - insert the USB devices. This resets the USB card.

  • Error message - "You must be connected to the Internet to play songs from music to Apple."

    I'm running OS X version 10.9.5 with iTunes version 12.3.1.23.

    When I try to listen to songs from Apple's music in my iTunes Music tab, I get this error message: "the [song name] song cannot be read because you are not connected to the internet. You must be connected to the Internet to play songs from Apple's music. »

  • Is there a way to process the pictures without putting them in the catalog?

    Is there a way to process the pictures without putting them in the catalog?

    Hello

    The answer is no. You can not 'open' a file in Lightroom as in Photoshop. The image file must be referenced by the catalog before you do anything for her. This does not mean that the image file is duplicated, however. The catalog contains only the path to the file, not the file itself.

  • I want to buy a new flash drive, help me choose please :(

    Hello guys! ))

    I am looking to buy a new flash drive, I transfer a lot of files and folders that exceed the limit of 4 GB to fat32

    I liked the Extreme Sandisk 64 GB, but I did some research and apparently has two versions, one that reads 190 MB/s and writing 170 MB / s... and another who reads 245 MB/s and writing 190 MB/s...
    I want the 245 MB/s one, 55 MB/s in the difference between "two versions".
    "I don't know if this may be a false drive * 170 MB/s, one ', but these speeds are written in the same package, and the products are the same...

    And another thing, the 64 GB flash drives is already formatted in exFAT, correct?

    in any case, thanks guys and sorry for my bad English im from South America.

    Hello

    its always recommended to format the drive after some use to track the performance of the car and sustainability. in this case, for formatting options, you can select the standard of formatting options with ExFat.

  • Still play songs from my iPhone when connected to wifi

    Had this problem before, but it stopped happening a while ago only to re - emerge with the iOS 10 update.

    I'm running on an iPhone 6 and used to play my music library on shuffle.

    Over the years, I've deleted some songs from my library of songs, but they remain available for re - download in iCloud.

    However, from time to time, if I play songs on shuffle when connected to wifi, one of these songs removed will be available on my phone and play.  It does not download to my phone and still only available for download on iCloud.

    Is it possible to stop these removed songs to play on quite my phone when connected to wifi?

    I'll add that I'm not on all subscriptions either except to increase my storage iCloud.

    I believe that you open the music application, select "download music", then make your choices from there.  If you do not select the "download music" it will first play all the songs that you have purchased.

  • Want to play music from iPadPro wireless iPhone4s

    Hello

    I own a two iPad Pro and an iPhone4s.

    The iPadPro is at the piano. OnSong is the active application, showing one song at a time, form my library of scores of 5 000 songs.

    Although performing professionally, I don't want to play with more than one device. This keeps the music that flows and keeps me looking for professionals.

    With OnSong, you can attach an audio file for each sheet music title. When the song is recalled, the track audio playback starts automatically.

    It does this in taste to an audio file in iTunes.

    BUT... instead of having music playing out of my 4 small speakers in my iPadPro... or mar the austere appearance of my iPad Pro with a cable attached, I would beam music (he plays iTune) Wi - Fi my iPhone4s, which is docked in a Bose SoundDock10. Cool. huh?

    How can I do. Don't forget, I "don't want to store music on the iPhone4s or play with him to shoot to the top of each song.

    Could someone please help?

    Thank you

    Sorry,

    But this is simply not possible.

  • Satellite L675 - 11 H - cannot access and/or played on USB flash drive files

    Hi all

    I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite L675 - 11H and tried to transfer files from a USB Pendrive on my hard drive from Toshiba. The files were already transferred from my old laptop (HP - XP) on my USB flash drive.

    Unable to access the USB flash drive to any of the USB ports that I connect my new laptop flash drive. What could be the problem here? Thank you for your help or tips!

    Hey Rush,

    Can you post more detailes about this behavior? What happens if you connect your laptop HARD drive, you don't see that Windows installs the drivers for the new USB device or do you have an error message? If you have connected the USB check of Windows disk management if she s recognized there (Control Panel > system and security > administrative tools).

    Have you tried other USB devices such as USB mice? If they don t work too the problem might be connected to the USB ports. In this case, you must delete all the USB ports on the Device Manager and restart your laptop. Also the chipset driver update might help.

    My disk 32 GB flash drive is not recognized by my office, but it is recognized by my laptop and other devices.

My office has at least 3 USB ports that I can reach to, and each of them do not recognize the Sansdisk, which means that it is not giving me the option to auto-play, or to eject the flash disk, it reads...
