• Windows media player I can't find a way to remove photos, or download it to a flash drive

  I have a bunch of pictures I want to get off Windows Media Player and I can't figure out how do it.

  The best would be to go into your folder of photos where the photos are actually saved.

  In fact, when you are in Windows Media Player, you can select (highlight)
  a file and choose in the menu "open file location".

  The following steps may be worth a try:

  Once you have accessed the right folder... Select the photos you want to add to
  the flash player.

  The group selected (highlighted) right click and choose... Copy.

  Reach... Start button / computer... your USB should be recognized
  with a drive letter.

  Right-click on the drive letter that represents the flash drive and choose... Dough.

  Right click on the selected group of photos and the menu another option...
  choose... Send to / {select the drive corresponding to the Flash drive letter}

  The Photos must transfer.

• How to convert wma and wav, mp4 files and what not not mp3 with Windows media player?

  * Original title: music questions

  Music has become a huge problem for me.   My car CD player only supports mp3 format.  I wish I could burn my CD from which I get used various locations, so that I can play in my car. Or convert files I have, which are not in mp3 format.  I played the same CD in my car for years.  It's a little sad.  And convert mp3 no mp3 files, so I can play them in my car, because I don't have a player other than Windows media player and speakers belong good markets.   How to convert files to wma and wav and mp4 and what not in mp3?

  Music is expensive nowadays and the multiple formats and thus loss of music bought and in the cloud, or itunes 'cannot locate the source' will not play, and when devices in the event of a failure or who are upgraded drives me crazy.  I have more music in my life and I wish that we would go back to portable music as CD.

  I usually use Windows Media player to RIP CD, that I find at thrift stores.   I have my brother gave me, on the PC that is in all sorts of types of music files.  I found a job online converter and it is, according to me, so thank you guys for suggesting that.  Have tried 3 different ones and finally found one that works in the last one.  I think my brain might need a bit of adjustment, of our days, (won't tell you music I have on CD, would seriously date), no kidding, but probably my PC could also use the setting.   I also have itunes for Windows, but have hardly used it.

• What is the best suond of quality I can rip a cd with windows media player, which can be read by itunes

  I'm putting my windows media files in iTunes to play on a stereo system.

  I am after the best quality possible and do not want to be caught in the trap in appleworld but there is very little ipnut devices that support what anyone else than apple.

  I also have a Samsing Galaxy SII I want to play music.

  I, therefore, plucked a few CD in windows media player using WAV (lossless) format.

  When I try to add a folder to library in itunes songs appear under unknown artist and I can't recognize the format.

  Anyone know what is the best quality download I can do which can be dealt with by media player AND iTunes?

  Thank you very much.

  John

  Why use iTunes AND WMP AND a Galaxy? Use one of them.

  The reason for which you you hide it all under "Unknown", this is that wav files are not encrypted when you ripped them. You must add the titles to the hand. However, your Galaxy will not be able to read them.

  You could rip as mp3 at a rate of 320 files - negligible loss of sound quality at a high rate, or as a file flac.

  You can use a codec for WMP for files flac and I don't know if iTunes can read - I never use it for reading. Check the plug on the Apple site. Yet once, however, the Galaxy cannot.

  However, they can read mp3 files, as can your Galaxy (I have a). To transfer files to the Galaxy its recommended to use Kies software (available on Samsung website)...

  If you were to use a program like AudioGrabber (Google for it, its freeware) coupled with the Lame codec (follow the links on the site of AudioGrabber) then you can rip from CD directly to mp3 at a rate of 320 that WMP + iTunes + your Galaxy can read.

  Hope that waffle above is clear,

  See you soon,.

• QUESTION OF WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER!

  I have this program that requires Windows Media Player 10 or higher to operate right.

  I have Windows Player 9 Series that came from the operating system disc. (Recovery disk)

  It does not appear in Add / Remove programs.

  I have run and check the updates from Microsoft Update and he finds nothing at all and Windows Media Player 9 Series and he tells me that my computer is running the most recent version of Windows Media Player and all its components and that no update is available at this time.

  Can you please tell me how to get rid of this Windows Media Player 9 Series I and install the latest Windows Media Player, that would be 10 or 11. Thank you!

  WMP 9 comes preinstalled on XP, and I'm sure that it is not possible to uninstall it-I certainly wouldn't recommend it in any case. Installation of WMP 11 on top of WMP 9 should work just fine.

  However, I suggest that you use system restore to create a restore point before the upgrade. In case anything goes wrong, you can always roll back to this restore point, without having to reinstall Windows.

• Windows Media Player not able to synchronize audio files for MP3 player

  Windows Media Player 11 issues

  I updated win xp home edition from sp2 to sp3. Also updated for Windows Media Player 11. WM11, I cannot sync to my mp3 player that I could use this feature in sp2 and the latest version of WM. Sometimes it will play music on the mp3 player, but close WM11 after a period short piece. When WM11 opens, I choose a song and play music for a brief period before an error box appears stating windows media must be closed due to erroer or error DRM Setup utility. Sometimes, it closes when you click on a song without any error message that appears. Updates that I updated to Windows Media. Have not tried burning / ripping any CD or adding new music to the library. Just try to play files of current music and trying to put music on an mp3 player. MP3 player is a simple player RCA 'Pearl '. Nothing complicated. Never had any problems before WM11. Can roll back to WM 9.5 (I think)... but no sync button. WM 10 does not able to download Pack SP3. Don't know what to do. Questions about this on the Microsoft Web site do not meet my windows media problems.

  Hello

  Thanks for the reply. I uninstalled WMP11. Old version had the ability to sync... just had to learn to move into the old version... different screen. I'll go back and try your method.
