Windows 7 Media Center will not download the new guide listings

Hello

I am really frustrated. WMC will not download the new guide listings and I tried all the patches that are supposed to be that I found in this forum. I also tried the system restore, which did not fix the problem. Obviously the problem is not affected by the restore program.

I was able to determine that there is some kind of corruption of the WMC files that Windows 7 can not solve (according to the event log).

I'm a bit exasperated at the tenacity of this problem. Y at - it a reliable fix or I need to reinstall Windows 7?

Thank you

Hello Long777,

You have the update for Windows Media Center installed?

Click on the article below:
KB Article ID: 2284742 -October 2010 Cumulative Update for Windows Media Center in Windows 7

You may be able to force a manual update. Do an update (weekly) to TV Guide through the menu system.

If this does not help, you might want to ask your specific question to http://.www.thegreenbutton.com \forums

I hope this helps.

Thank you

  • Media Center will not recognize the internal TV tuner from Sony

    Original svl24 title: sony + tv tuner + multimedia
    Win7 Media center won't recognize the internal tv tuner Sony (Bravia). The installation program rises "tv tuner" not found. What is interesting, is that Sony SVL24 can detect and be able to use the TV without Media center option.  Anyone have a solution?

    you have a link to your model of machine somewhere on the Sony site? the info I have
    found the third sites indicates that there is no accessible software
    TV for Media Center tuner. This information shows that you can watch TV without the
    computer is turned on.
     
    To me, this indicates that the TV tuner is the type that you would have in normal
    only TV (which is not capable of Media Center) support.
     
    You can probably add a USB tuner to this all-in-one and watch/record TV via
    Media Center, but it doesn't look like the 'tuner' in your computer is a
    "computer" tuner

  • Windows Media Center will not download updates to the Guide. Netflix and Internet TV options do not appear on the menu screen.

    I tried to configure Media Center for Internet TV and Netflix. I have Setup several times and attempted to manually download the updates. So far, neither option appeared on the menu screen and I repeatedly received an error message when you try to download updates to the guide that directs me to check the update log. I find the event log, and that's what he said:

    * 10:44:58 - test of internet connection. 10:45:01 - established connection. 10:45:02 - directory of recovery. 10:45:03 - directory of recovery. 10:45:04 - directory of recovery. 10:45:05 - Directory of recovery.

    * 10:45:05 - SportsSchedule the package is not available. 10:45:05 - SportsV2 the package is not available. 10:45:05 - ClientUpdate the package is not available. 10:45:05 - NetTV package is not available. 10:45:05 - MCESpotlight the package is not available. 10:45:05 - MCEClientUX the package is not available. 10:45:05 - broadband package is not available. 10:45:06 - errors during the last update. 10:45:06 - retries at 2009-10-25 04:54:37.

    Also, when I tried to contact support by email and has been asked to enter my product ID number to verify the activation, I was told it was not valid. I repeatedly entered it exactly as stated on the page of the system. I also activated the software certified on the same page of the system.

    Any help would be appreciated because I would really like to be able to use these features.

    Thank you.

    I had this same problem. That's what I did which appeared to fix (not sure if that fix or if it sets just itself). I ran the mcupdate.exe file located in the C:\windows\ehome\ directory (or some windows player is on). Yet once again, I'm not sure if this corrects the problem, or if it randomly determines.

  • Windows 8 Media Center will not install, get useless message error "something went wrong".

    I have the version upgrade of Windows 8 Pro and can not install Media Center.

    I signed up for a key that was sent to me and past the initial check whenever I try to install it.

    I check the checkbox for the conditions once the key is successfully verified.

    I then get the bar of green progression for the verification of updates and after about 30 seconds, I get the error message 'something went wrong '.

    Hello

    This is how I solved this problem.
    I have notised that a file with the name ehome. has been "created" in the windows folder.
    This seems to block the creation of the eHome folder, where the Media Center should install.
    Remove the ehome. file, create the eHome directory and try again to install the Media Center.
    Worked for me on two different PCs.

  • PlayReady in Media Center will not update.

    PlayReady in Media Center will not update.  The message is "PlayReady update was incomplete.  "You can watch or save protected content until the update is successful.  All attempts to return the same error.  Netflix also only a black screen shows when you watch a movie.  Live TV works except HBO which is protected against copying.  How can I fix?

    Hi William,.

    Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    From the problem description, I understand that you have problems with the PlayReady Media Center update on Windows 8 computers. I will certainly help you in this regard.

    Try these methods and see if it makes a difference.

    Method 1
    Loan will not update if the date is wrong. I suggest you to check if the system date and time is correct.

    Method 2
    Temporarily disable your firewall settings and check if you are able to update.
    Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.


    Method 3

    Open Windows "Services" via the Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.
    With Media Center open and show "the PlayReady update was incomplete. Do you want to retry? "Go to the 'Services' Panel you just opened and scroll all the way up to"Services Windows Media Center Receiver", double-click it, then click on"Stop ".

    Navigate to the folder ReadyPlay HIDDEN (C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\PlayReady), and then delete the mspr.hds file.

    Return to the OPEN & CONTINUES, Media Center and click 'Yes' and 'Next' to the question of the PlayReady update. He should immediately zip past and say update complete & you can watch and record the protected against copying.

    Carry out these methods and let us know if you need more assistance. I'll be happy to help you.
