Windows Media Player 11 cannot apply downloaded skins

IM on Vista x 64 media player 11 and all skins Ive downloaded custom applies when I click apply. Just, the player sits on the skin selection screen and does nothing, the original skins work and downloaded skins working on media player from my fiancées 11 on his vista x 32. How can I make them work on my version?

Hello Deshra,

I believe that the problem is that your system is 64-bit and the download do not specify whether 32-bit or 64-bit. Since it seems to work on 32 bits of your fiancée computer and not on a 64 bit machine it makes me believe that it would be the problem.

Search skins 64-bit download and see if it helps to have the skins.

Please answer and give us an update.

Sincerely,

Marilyn

  • Windows media player will not play download i-player with mp4 suffix bbc

    I downloaded a program from the bbc I have-Reader so that I was in England. The progamme is indicated as being downloaded on bbc I = site of player with an expiration date in the future.  the file is displayed in my library under my videos as p01fcz2k_b039ftbm_1377518019380.mp4. I tried to read in windows media player, but it does not open and an error message is displayed as follows: "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. »

    How to play? I'm no longer in the United Kingdom.

    You can try the following solutions:

    1. try to rename the file to a maximum of 8 characters and check.
    2. try playing the file with any other media players like VLC. Because Windows Media Player does not have the maximum number of codecs. The question can also be with the file/codec.

  • Windows media player will not apply changes to databases of media

    Arrgh.  Windows media player has great potential but is so volatile.  I already reset the program and now I find I have to re - enter old info on the songs I copied analog.  the final problem is that it does not apply the information from the databases of media.  Looks like it's going to make the changes - but it doesn't.  Is there a way to reset the protocols for the application of media without resetting my together huge database.  hoping you can help.

    What type of file in your music files (MP3, WMA, WAV...)?

    To resolve this problem, delete the Windows Media Player database. To do this, follow these steps:

    Usually, also, had to stop the WMP network sharing Service before you rebuild the library. Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click the service, and then click stop.

    Just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 operating system and the new Windows Media Player 12 installed.

If not, are there instructions anywhere on HOW to save files that are downloaded from the internet? I spent several hours trying to figure this out. Thank you very much.

  • Windows Media Player 11 cannot show MP4 video but can hear the sound

    Hi all, I prefer WMP on the other players, because he is able to play most of my MP4 without any lag. However, there are some MP4 files that do not show the Visual but audio is heard when I played against them on WMP. Interestingly, when the same MP4 files are played on other players, audio and video are very good. I take so that the files are ok, but may need to change the system or WMP.

    Appreciate any advice. I'm on Windows XP and WMP ver 11.0.5721.5280. Thank you very much.

    Hi lkahwai96,

    Were you able to play properly mp4 files in Windows Media Player earlier?

    You can follow this link & check if the problem persists:

    You receive a codec error message or play audio but video does not play when you play media files in Windows Media Player 11
