Why is my music library still looking for missing unknown album everyday now never stops

Why is my music library still looking for missing unknown album everyday now never stops

Hello

·         You did changes to the computer before the show?

·         What Media Player do you use to play music files?

·         What is the file type of the music files you want to play?

If you are using Windows media player, I suggest you to re - index the WMP library by following the steps below and check it, if it helps:

(a) output Windows Media Player.

(b) click Start, run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player, and then click OK.

(c), select all the files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.
Note: You don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.

(d) restart Windows Media Player.
 
Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database

  • WMP12 is constantly "retrieving media info for an unknown album", but I do not have strangers albums

    For as long as I can remember since I had Windows 7, WMP constantly said "Recovery media info for an unknown album" in the lower status bar. The only time wherever it's never going away when is actively an update of the library. Then once the update is complete, it will return to say "Recovery media info for an unknown album." I had assumed that maybe it was because I had a few albums that had no tags. I recently went through those and manually corrected the tags, so now I don't have any of the unknown artists or albums. Yet I still get the same status all the time. I noticed, though, that if I sort my library by the artist, all the way down it is 'Unknown' with 1 song under the heading 'other '. This can be read and nothing happens when I try to remove it.

    I also had problems with sometimes jumps and small pauses in the playback, especially of WMA files. As my computer needs to be powerful enough to play audio files smoothly even in multitasking, I wonder if WMP is constantly trying to update a non-existent album could cause these problems.

    I have a large music library (file ~ 18000). I use WMP exclusively because I have a large number of WMA files with DRM licenses and is one of the few players who can handle this. I also use WMP on my computer to play music over the radio show, so it is very important that I get rid of this glitchy reading.

    I use Windows 7 64 bit and WMP12 on a computer with processor dual core 2.53 GHZ and 4 GB of RAM. I'd appreciate any help I can get.

    Thank you

    Hi Ben,

    Trying to play or delete the file in the library nothing results. It seems that the Windows Media Player 12 library database is corrupted.
    We recommend that you clear the Windows Media Player database and check the result. To do this, try the following steps:
    a. Click Start, type run, click Run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player, and then click OK.
    b. Select all files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.
    Note: You don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.
    c. restart Windows Media Player and check the result.
    Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

    For more information, see you can not remove the item from the Windows Media Player library (the steps are also applicable for Windows Media Player 12)

  • Why the Apple Music Radio plays only for a short period?

    Why the section of Apple's Music Radio play that for a short period and then stop at the end of a song? Sometimes after thirty minutes, other times, it will play for three hours. I can restart the music by pressing Pause, and then move to the next selection, then play. I have a start 2011 15 "MacBook Pro, El Capitan 10.11.1 and an Airport Extreme. All other aspects of iTunes and Apple's music work very well.

    It seems that your connection to the music of Apple streaming servers is interrupted for some reason any. I did have problems with Beats1 radio a break at any time that I have been listening. You can try to reboot your router if you do not have and test on ethernet vs wifi to see if that makes a difference.

  • Looking for missing drivers after downgrading

    I got a new HP Envy 700 - 030qe CTO of Windows 8 for Windows 7.

    First question: is there a place I can get ALL the compatible drivers for this machine on Win7?  I'm sure that HP sold this machine exactly (or almost exact) a few months ago with Win 7 on it?  If someone can tell me the model number then I could order the recovery for her disc, hopefully.  I have a legal copy of Win7 with license key, all I need is the drive to recover to Win7.  Even if this is not correct, it would be closer to that you are looking for a bunch of missing drivers one by one.

    Second question:

    I could find most of the drivers except something that presents itself as a USB controller (although most of the USB ports seems to work, maybe all of them).  Any idea what to try for this HP drivers:

    CONTROLLER USB - Hardware ID

    PCI\VEN_8086 & DEV_8C31 & SUBSYS_2AF3103C & REV_04

    PCI\VEN_8086 & DEV_8C31 & SUBSYS_2AF3103C

    PCI\VEN_8086 & DEV_8C31 & CC_0C0330

    PCI\VEN_8086 & DEV_8C31 & CC_0C03

    Pointers are greatly appreciated!

    Thank you.

  • I can not access my music library.

    I keep the message that there's no element in this player yet - the library is looking for media files in the background. I don't understand because I can access all my music in another user account on my computer, what should I do?

    Hi Lameezy,

    Thanks for posting your question on the Forums of Windows Vista.

    If you are able to access the music to other accounts, the possibility is that your user account itself is corrupted and you may need to create a new user account for yourself.

    You can follow the article given to transfer data from the old user account for the new user account:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/928634

    NOTE: Make sure that you do not transfer the parameters, but only data from corrupt or good account the new account will again get corrupted and the question may reappear.

    Hope the information will help. Please post back and we do know.

    Thank you & best regards

  • How to extract the same song, several times using different bit rates or formats and store all the digital music files in WMP 12 default on the same HDD music library

    Using Windows Media Player 12 (w/under Windows 7), "can I ripping the same song, several times, using different bitrates & and/or formats and store all the digital music files in the music library by default WMP - 12, on the same hard drive?

    1.) #1 goal: tear up the same song repeatedly, w / "different rates" as a WMA file.

    2.) #2 goal: tear up the same song repeatedly, w / "different rates" as an mp3 file.

    3.) #3 objective: NOT to each subsequent copy (version) of the song, deleted & and/or replaced by the previous version of the song [even].

    4.) question Bottom Line Up Front--> is Windows Media Player 12 (included with the Windows 7 operating system) are able to achieve '#1 objectives; #2; & #3 above?

    5.) details/example: I want to tear the piece "Maria Maria by Carlos Santana" to my laptop as a Windows Media Audio [WMA] file.  In addition, I would like to rip the song 'Maria Maria' three several times with 3 different bitrates in format WMA; and, as an MP3 file.  Therefore, my final result wished (after the extraction process), will take place the four 4 audio files split up as follows: (a) 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped @128 Kbps bitrate.  (b) ' Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped to the "Variable bit rate; (c) ' Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: file WMA; Ripped commissioning "Lossless." and (d). 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'--> Format: MP3 file. Ripped @256 Kbps bitrate.

    6.) my preference: I do NOT want to rename the file (s). {for example, 'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana' renamed/changed for--> "Maria_Maria_by_Carlos_Santana_128kbps.wma",...} 'Maria_Maria_by_Carlos_Santana_256kbps.mp3 '; etc.}.  In addition, I am not concerned about the additional disk space that will be consumed after multiple copies of the same song with different speeds of transmission and different formats.

    7.) my experience w / Windows Media Player 10 (w / the operating system of Windows XP): using WMP - 10, my goal (s) described above is not a problem at all.  Simply insert the CD purchased by Carlos Santana, containing the song "Maria Maria"... Select the desired Format (WMA; WMA VBR; WMA Lossless; or mp3)... Select the desired flow rate (WMA... 128/160/192kbps_mp3: 128/192/256/320 kbit / s; etc.) ; and click on the "RIP" button to start the copy process on the hard disk of of Carlos Santana's "Maria Maria".  This process (w / WMP-10) would result in having the same song, copied on the hard disk, with levels of quality different "audio" (via the different bit rate settings); regardless of the format (MP3/WMA) which was chosen.

    8.) my experience w / Windows Media Player 11 (w / the operating system of Windows XP): using WMP 11, to described above of my objective (s) could not be reached e-a-s-i-l-y.  The problem with WMP - 11 - in short - which was after the desired selection "Rip settings" tab 'Options' of WMP - 11 (i.e., Format & Bit Rate) and heart-wrenching piece wanted to {'Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'} a moment later/second, WMP11 remove / would crush the previous version of the song [even].  Therefore, the program would NOT allow the user to have multiple copies of the same song on the hard drive of the PC; which obviously restricts a user to have the freedom to choose what level of quality digital audio, they prefer to listen to.

    9.) the ability to have multiple copies [at my descretion] of the same song (on my hard drive) with different bitrates and formats in my music library, is important for me because it has a direct impact on "how I enjoy MY music ', and in what form (audio quality), I choose to listen to my music.  {For example, when I exercise and listening to my camera, digital audio player (Zune), a song ('Maria Maria by Carlos Santana'), will usually be torn off at a lower rate due to the unit of capacity reduction of storage - compared to the storage capacity of notebook PCs/desktop/external hard drives PC.}  However, when I listen to my music through my home cinema or entertainment system (which contains a hard disk dedicated with a large storage capacity), I prefer to load the entertainment system with digital music files that have been ripped to WMA... with the bit being rate-setting is for the: settings "WMA Variable Bit Rate" or "WMA Lossless.

    10.) there you have it.  This is my first post in this forum.  I hope that [detailed] explanations, will be sufficient to encourage these "with knowledge & the hands on experience" using Windows Media Player 12 (as well as with WMP-10/WMP-11 respectively), by providing a [step] "How-to"... "solution to my situation.  It would be highly appreciated.  I'm looking forward-'the solution' - and relevant suggestions & and/or community feedback regarding my request for assistance.

    * Thank 'All' (that would) in advance... For your time & Assistance *.

    Certainly, you can, but I would say that they be in different folders, for your convenience as well as Windows.  You can create one for each debit/format, then you will know who is who.

    In Windows Media Player, on the toolbar, select Tools, Options, Rip, and then select the flow you want first, rip music, then change the folder (higher on the same tab) and rip again... and so on and so forth.

    When you are at home on your home theater, you can use the 320 bitrate folder, when you transfer to the Zune, you can use one of the lower bitrate files (although I personally tear it up to 320 and let the Zune reduce as he wants, even with the iPhone via iTunes, hard drive space is not really a problem here) my server has several hard drives, and I can always add more if and when space is low!
