When a close the lid of my portable computer Windows Media Player stops, and when I open it, it picks up.
When a close the lid of my computer laptop wmp stops and when I open it, it resumes. This only happens on the battery. I have it set to not sleep, and there is no screen saver. I want to use my cell phone as an mp3 player without having to leave the lid open. is there anyway to prevent a break?
original title: WMP stops when the lid is closed
Open Power Options - you can do it from the control panel by typing Power Options in the start menu, or by right click on the battery icon in your system tray (right end of the taskbar.)
Click on "change plan settings" for your current power management. On the next page, click "Change advanced power settings". On the box that opens, expand 'Power buttons and lid', then 'action close cover.' Change the selection to "on battery" to the 'status quo', and then click OK. Close the power Plan window.

Hi I have a problem connecting to the internet. When I click on the internet it goes straight to windows media player.
HI Maria,
If you are using Vista, go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and scroll down to EXE and click or double-click it to run the program to restore EXE file associations. Once done, do the same for LNK entry. This should restore your programs and get the Internet icon to go to the internet rather than WMP. If you use Windows 7, go to http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html. If you are using XP, go to http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm.
If this does not work and it started recently, try a system restore to a restore point BEFORE the problem started. If you use Windows 7, see:http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/700-system-restore.html. If you are using Vista, see:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/. If you are using XP, see:http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial56.html. If the first attempt fails, try an earlier point or two because the problem may have started before you noticed.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

Hi, we are currently running Windows XP SP3. My daughter tries to download a song from Windows Media Player, she needs for her class dance. It just download the song bad by accident without problem. Now she's trying to download the song using the same CD (CD - R80) and it gives sound this error: «Please insert a blank disc in the CD drive (E :).» Once Windows Media Player detects a new disc, it will start automatically burning." Someone please help. She needs this to practice his senior dance solo.
As I understand it, the CD was already burned once, and now she's trying to burn on the same CD again? This is not possible, as the CD - Rs can only be burned once. She will need a new blank CD - R, like the error message.

Hello
I can't share my media using WMP 11. When I try to do, opens a window of options asking how I want to share media files (with xbox, other users, etc.), and I select the options and click OK. Then, when I return in the sharing of multimedia files to see if the media are indeed shared, a window opens informing me "Media sharing has been disabled because a required Windows setting or component has been changed. For any additional help, click Help on the Web. When I click Web help, the error code above, with a few troubshooting not. You must ensure that Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service is turned on. However, when I get to the list of Services, WMP Network Sharing is not. It is also a step to confirm the ownership of a registry subkey. When I try to access the subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences\HME\ [security ID], however, there is no security ID subkey. Instead of that, by virtue of the MCH, there is a list of "default (name), REG_SZ (type) and not the value (data)".Suggestions about how to fix this would be greatly appreciated. Would it be useful to simply uninstall WMP and start over? If so, how to do that? I saw an obvious way to do it.
Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

Windows media player stops responding when you click on the link on the Web site
Windows media player
Every time I press a link on a site that allows a person to watch a video. Windows media player does not respond, what we get is a pink screen with the small blue circle, whizzing round a round a round. It does not even when we try to click on the wide screen... Help please, very frustrated!
So using your media guide? or you are using a browser that has a particular video game that uses the Media Player plugin? You may need a codec pack.
If you use media guide try watch it in your browser. Then tell me if this works. Also you may not know that this media player will wait until the entire video is buffered before playing.
