• Windows media player will not open and play the videos uploaded on my gmail account but if I send email from my yahoo account.

  But if I send the email to my yahoo account, it will open and play very well.  I ran microsofts 'fix it' program many times without success. What could be wrong?

  Hello Tango6,

  Maybe your security software prevents this? What security software currently installed and have you tried to disable it temporarily?
  Given that this occurs only with your Gmail account, I'd be willing to bet that they have in place security measures to prevent reading straight out of email attachments.

• Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file. Windows Media Player C00D11B1

  I get this error when I try to play a file I've downloaded BBC iplayer. What is the solution?

  My sound driver and the device is installed and running as I am able to listen to music on my laptop. He used to work until I upgraded to Windows 7. and since I have updated it did not work. Windows Media Player works on other video files

  Please try the following steps: -.

  1. use Windows Update, or access the sound device manufacturer's Web site to see if an updated driver is available.

  2. use Device Manager to check the status of your audio device.

  a. click Start, right-click computerand then click Manage.

  (b) in the left pane, click Device Manager.

  c. in the pane, expand sound, video and game controllersand then look for the name of your audio device.

  d. do one of the following:

  3. If your audio device is listed, but the icon has a red 'X', the device has been disabled.          To activate the device, right-click the icon, and then click Activate.

  4. If your audio device is not listed in the right pane, expand other devices. If the Multimedia Audio Controller appears in the list, right-click on the icon and then click Update driver software. Follow the on-screen instructions to find and install the driver software.

  5. If you are not able to find and install the correct driver software, go to the Web site of your computer or the manufacturer of your sound device manufacturer for assistance.

  6. If you do not have a sound device installed on your computer, install an audio device and then try to play the file again. For more information, go to the Web site your manufacturer of the computer or the manufacturer of your audio device.

  7. If you try to play a file on the Internet, try again later. The server may be temporarily unavailable or there could be a network problem.

  8. If you try to play an MP3 file that contains compressed ID3 headers, make a copy of the file and then use an ID3 tag non - editing program Microsoft to remove or reset the file's ID3 headers.

  The ID3 header is a part of the file that stores the album information of the song (for example, the song name, artist name, album name and kind). This information is sometimes called tag. After you remove the headers ID3, Windows Media Player should be able to play MP3 files.

  Trudy,
  Try the following and let us know the results.
  Run these tools:

  Take note of the results of the System File Checker.  Then after you run the two, run Windows Update.

  You are able to update of AVG?
  Any other antivirus (i.e. Norton, McAfee, etc.) has already been installed on this computer?
  When you say 'Nothing' that you tried to install?
  If you disable AVG and then run Windows Update you get a different outcome\error?

• Windows Media Player will only play a sound with no video .avi and .mov

  I started having a problem where the Windows Media Player will only play the audio portion of my .avi and .mov video files.

  These files were created by my FlipCam or my Sony Handycam.

  I never had problems until recently and think that it is due to some kind of Windows Update.

  Both my computer and my wife's computer had the same problem and we are both using Windows XP Home Edition.

  I apologize if this topic already on this forum.

  Thanks for any help and advice.

  CoDec = compressor decompressor.
  A program is used to compress the file. You then need to unpack the file to play, you need the codec used to compress the file to decompress it on your pc.
  You need DVD playing software installed to power the mpeg codec, or you can buy a codec to just run in media player.
  AVI is a wrapper and may well contain more than 800 different file types, it has 800 different codecs!  Thus, to read an avi file, you should know what codec was used to do and have that installed on your pc to read.
  DV.avi is made with the dv codec, divx.avi is made with the divx codec.
  Of course, that manufacturers make their codecs, you must make sure you have the latest being, to be able to read files made with it, so everything just because you downloaded the codec divx 12 months ago does not mean it will play files created with codecs of today!

  I hope this explains it is ok for you.

  It surprises me that you say that you have downloaded all the updates of altest, but are still running wmp9, where we are now on WMP11 for XP and 12 for win7.

  I would update my WMP version first.

  Here is a page that will tell you that the codecs are on your pc and who has access to WMP 11.
  http://www.myvideoproblems.com/tutorials/HowToFindCodecs.html

  Here is a page that will tell you how to know what codec was used to create the file that you are trying to watch and also if you have the right codec for it
  http://www.myvideoproblems.com/tutorials/AVIcodec.html

  It is generally accepted that the codec packs adding is a bad idea, so if you need a codec to read a certain file, google it's manufacturer and just install the one you need.

  I would work just on the pc at the same time when you found what the problem is, you can fix on the other 2.

  Need more help with this, just ask.

• Windows media player will not play videos that I created a few years back. they use to play very well; now, I received the acquired codec error message. I use wmp 11

  My old videos in my windows media player will not play. acquire CODECS rises. I get audio but not video for all the movies at home. Movies that I downloaded and clips play very well. How can I fix it. I use wmp 11.

  Hello satindoll11233,

  1. What is the exact error message you get when you try to play videos?

  2. What is the format of the videos that you try to play?

  3. are you able to play other files with Windows Media Player?

  Media Player will not be able to play video files, if there are no required codecs or video format is not supported by Media Player.

  I suggest you to check the format of the video you are trying to play. You can also try the steps in the article to resolve this problem:

• Windows Media Player will not play the .mp4 files after installation IE10 - BEX error message

  Hello!

  Back to a system restore point previous fixed the problem and I could again play the files in Media Player, but during the night that Windows updates installed and the morning I could not play these .mp4 files once more. So I restored to a point earlier, changed my updates so that they are is more automatic and by installing each day at a time, I finally isolated the problem in Internet Explorer 10. If I install that, just Windows Media Player will not play these files.
  I tried a manual update of Internet Explorer 10, turn off all the options of toolbars shit and everything, thinking that when it automatically installs those who may be included, but that has not helped. Had to go back to my previous IE10 restore point. So no matter what, Internet Explorer 10 kills my ability to play .mp4 on Windows Media Player files.
  I don't have toolbars running on IE9 at all.
  I know that's obvious answer is 'do not install Internet Explorer 10' or if I do, download another player for .mp4 files. But the fact is, it shouldn't happen, it is indicative of something being wrong, and I would like TO be able to install Internet Explorer 10 AND use Windows Media Player to play these files. If someone else has had this problem, or know a way to fix it?
  Here are my system specs:
  Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
  Intel Core i5 - 3350P @ 3.10 GHz CPU
  ASRock H77M LGA 1155 motherboard
  8 GB DDR3 240 - Pin SD RAM
  Diamond Radeon HD 7870PE52GV 7870 GHz video card
  And all my programs are installed on this:
  SAMSUNG series Pro 840 MZ-7PD256BW 2.5 "256GB SATA III MLC internal Solid State Drive
  I'd appreciate any help you can provide! Thank you!!

  It sounds like your question. I think you should uninstall this update and

  hide and see if that solves your problem. Please report.

  I tried myself after experiencing the same problem and error code. I uninstalled the KB2670838 update, and then my Windows Media Player finally worked again. I also found that IE 10 must be uninstalled as well. Installation of IE 10 also automatically installs the update of KB2670838 platform. After uninstalling KB2670838, IE 10 automatically uninstall with it, better you hide two updates so that they do not install again. From the link in the previous post, I learned that the platform update is having problems of conflict with the AMD drivers. Good luck to you and hope this helps.

• My windows media player will not play a DVD

  My windows media player will not play a DVD: Microsoft Windows 95 Version 5.1 (Build 2600.XP_SP3_gdr.111025 - 1629:Service Pack 3).  Download a free version of media player to play the DVD?  Please tell me the name of the upgrade and where to find the free download version, if so.  Thank you!

  First thing that you do not run windows 95 if your build number is 2600.XP_SP3 it is a build number of windows XP.  Second, you will not be able to play DVDs using this version of windows and media player only.  The reason for this is DVD is a standard that a group of companies shut down and basically, they demand rights fees to use, it codec, which you don't have. You will need get a program that has integrated these codec (or find them somewhere).  Your best option for this is to completely abandon the but of the using Media player to play your DVD (unless you are looking to buy another piece of software).  There is a free option that I use on my machine Windows 7 Basic its called VLC is a free player that makes just about every format out there (not sure Bluray).  VLC uses its own codec (I think it's developed for the linux community orginially) rather than using the codec of the industry.  You can find the program at http://www.videolan.org/

• Windows media player will not play my downloaded movies.

  Original title: windows media player will not play my downloaded movies, so I know very lil on computers! Please help me!

  I have LimeWire. I downloaded several movies and can't watch them. When I try, it automatically showed the windows media player, and then displays a message saying "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. "I looked for updates, perhaps thinking that I needed one, he says: there is no availiavle. I use the latest version of windows media player. any help would be greatly appreciated!

  It's really a simple question, easy to fix. But if you are really not that familiar with the computer, you may want to ask a friend who knows enough to help you.

  You can show it to your friend...
  What you need is to 'google' for a FREE video converter.
  Use the converter and changge movies in WMV file formats. (Sticking with the formats WMV, nothing else).
  Once the conversion is complete, you can play these movies in your Media Player.

  However, there is another alternative. Install a 3rd party media player called VLC. He plays any video fromats.

• Windows Media Player will burn a data CD for us but not an audio CD.

• Windows Media Player will not play cd but show no errors

  Windows 7 Windows Media Player 12 - previously would play music CD (purchased at retail, not burned) that I inserted in the CD/DVD/BD drive very well.  Now, whenever I put in a cd it seems to read the info of the cd (album, artist, title), but when I try to listen to a song, I see a red X.  If I hover over the red X is see "Windows Media Player has encountered an error.  Click the icon for more information. "When I click the icon I see simply a box that says"Error Details"and nothing more.  How to solve this error?

  Thanks for the reply very detailed with several suggestions.

  There are several known changes made to my computer since the last time I played a CD.  These include some Windows updates (which have been applied automatically during the stops), a Java Update, an update of Adobe Flash and possibly others that I don't know or don't remember.

  I was a bit confused about whether it was a hardware problem or software, because Windows Media Player seems to read at least part of the ok CD to get the album and track information, but could not play all the tracks.  Just before I read your suggestions, I tried something to isolate if it was a problem with Windows Media Player or a CD drive problem.  I opened iTunes was already installed on my computer and previously used to play music stored on the hard drive (but has never been used to play music directly from CD).  I inserted a CD with Windows Media Player could not play and iTunes has played the CD fine.  I closed iTunes and then reopen Windows Media Player and now he can play any CD just fine in Windows Media Player.  I am happy to say that everything seems to work fine now, but I have no idea why the problem disappeared after using iTunes when I could re - create the problem at will before that try to play all the CD with Windows Media Player.

  As a last test, I put a known "damaged" music CD.  It acts like the previous problem - i.e. can read/display the info of the album and the way tracks but cannot read any track, shows the red X next to each track he's trying to play, and by clicking on the red X opens a box that says "Error Details" and nothing more.  It would be nice if it gave an error code or a more descriptive message.

  Thanks again for your response.  We can close this thread because my problem disappeared mysteriously.
