Why windows guide media is missing from windows media player using windows 8?

Windows icon is not on my windows media player why not am I missing something? I like listening to the radio stations on the list.

Why was the link to the deleted Media Guide site?  You broke something which worked well - nice work MSFT.

Agree with Elroy - navigate to the "... windowsmedia.com" is simply another stage that was not necessary in the past.

There is a partial solution.  1. go to the wondowsmedia.com site.  2. an internet radio station, click on listen--> WMP should open and start playing the station.  3. in WMP, on the right side, drop down and click "view list".  Must be the name of the radio station.  4 save the Radio station list (will appear in the playlists in the future).  5. While you listen to other stations, you can click with the right button on the station name in the window of the list and add it to your playlist registered.  6. your saved playlist (Internet radio) becomes your link to play directly from WMP.

Again, not a full solution (it cannot browse stations w / in WMP), but if you have some Favorites, above is a way to hear directly from WMP.

    You can connect the device and the computer via a USB cable.

    1. Insert the memory card in the camera.

    2. use the USB cable supplied with the device to connect to your computer.

    3. use Windows Media Player 11 for Windows Vista to sync the music on the memory card.

    Or

    You can copy songs from the windows Explorer and paste it on your SD card.

    Hi Ginjar1,

  • Storage media player uses?

    Hi you all,.


    I updated my old HPa610n, office from Vista/32 bit to a more recent HPp6320y, Win7/64 bit & I was wondering if I can still use my old pocket-sliding support delivered disk pre-installed with my old HP/32-bit Vista, w / my new improved W/7, 64-bit?
    The multimedia Pocket Player has storage 160 G I would use to return to the top/shadow/from my new O.S. Win7 64 bit HPp6320y
    How many concerts a backup/shadow O.S take?

    Also, since I deleted all the old restore & backup points, Pocket Media Player can hold now is 160G max.capacity & I was considering devoting all 160G for "Ready Boost" but, I don't know if there is a limit to how much ready boost you you can use, or does depend the size of some drv USB storage. you choose to use for "Ready Boost"? I read a few messages indicating that a win/7, System 64-bit can only use 8Gs for readyboost and that all storage w/top of the device is a waste.
    Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Firstly, I just want to use it to store important data in the event of hard drive failure, and on the other hand I wouldn't mind a bit of extra ram if necessary. (I have already 8G of ram, and my system can take another card to max w/one another remember 8Gs.)

    Thank you very much for any advice, boulonman

    You should contact HP support to see if it is compatible with the new HP model.

    In addition, depending on the amount of data that you have installed, it should be enough create a backup of your installation. Windows 7 uses about 8 to 10 GB of disk space, more your applications and personal data that can quickly exceed 16 GB.

    To effectively use Readyboost, Windows 7 1.7 GB of space is recommended and will have a limit determined for your drive.

    Personally, I recommend, because you have 8GBs of RAM, if you want a system that works very well, invest in an SSD, you won't regret.

  • Why bookmark Favicon changer is missing from the list of modules?

    The bookmark Favicon changer add-on is currently installed on my browser [ESR 31.2.0] and it seems to work, although imperfectly. Yet the pages of the add-on (https://addons.mozilla.org/) do not list it at all, I see. What is going on?

  • WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER... Missing codecs

    My windows media player use to play DVD & VCD but now missing the codec so can't watch these now. Download the codecs but them uninstalled as apparently do IE, Media Player etc unstable. Is anyone able to help with this please... Thanks :)

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in this forum. I understand that DVD is not playing in Windows media player, installed some codecs but these codecs were Internet Explorer unstable. Let us know if it's the misunderstanding of the question.

    A codec is a software to compress or decompress a digital media file, such as a song or a video. Windows Media Player and other programs use codecs to play and create digital media files.

    A codec can consist of two components: an encoder and a decoder. The encoder performs the compression function (coding) and the decoder performs the decompression function (decoding). Some codecs include both components and some codecs only one of them.

    For example, when you rip a song from an audio CD on your computer, the player uses the default Windows Media Audio codec to compress the song into a compact WMA file. When you play that WMA file (or any WMA file that may be broadcast from a Web site), the player uses the codec Windows Media Audio to decompress the file for music can be played through your speakers.
