• Windows Media Player constantly loses library files

  I have a questions after the reconstruction of my PC where Windows Media 12 constantly loses its library content.

  The folders are added, but there is no content that is displayed.

  I tried the following without resolution

  • Rebuild the database
  • Deactivation of additional to retrieve from the Internet content
  • By selecting only add missing content
  • Restoration of the library

  Restore the library although temporarily before content is lost again.

  Thanks in advance

  The reason that my library lost files was to make the folder redirection of the AppData folder.

  Deletion of the redirect and allowing AppData to reside on the C: drive has solved the problem.

• How to move pictures from the library of Windows Media Player to the picture library or another user account

  animated media player images

  I'm trying to move images from windows media player library of images, or if possible to another account 'user '.

  Windows Media Player and libraries contain no files, you just tell him
  where to find files.
   
  For other users to access the same files, place them in a folder accessible
  to all, such as public folders.

• Windows Media Player 12 loses album artist information when you use WHS .wav

  There seems to be a bug in WMP 12 who loses the album artist information when you use a WHS .wav files.

  Installation - WMP 12 on Windows 7 ultimate. WHS pp3. Music files stored in .wav format.

  There is a marking Wav format is possible. I read on Broadcast Wav files. They are 32-bit. I also read on 64-bit Wav files. What I read there is a limit to the size of the files Wav 32-bit and 64-bit Wav files exceed this limit. Most of the people don't need now. But as a producer of music, I can see how me should before you. Look for a program called reason by Propellerhead software: http://www.propellerheads.se/products/reason/. I ' v read in their help file, you can send support and they will help you find what you need. I've also read about this and said a little on other internet forums for producers. I have no reason, I use another software.

  Broadcast Wav: He is apparently slightly different than regular Wav files. It doesn't have as much support. Some programs or systems apparently don't read the id3 tags, have trouble with the id3 tags or have trouble with this format. So until this id3 Wav tagging is common and Wav files EVENTUALLY get their marking permanently, then what is out at the moment is all that is available.

  WMA lossless, Wav and mp3 320 kbps, etc. have a difference in sound. Listen for yourself on your device with the SAME material and the SAME Ripper programs your test files.

  The other way I tested is: I make music. Then I tore, Wav, WMA Lossless and a type of lossless, mp3 320 Kbps and mp3 256 kbps. I put all the them in the music program, I separated, but on the same timeline. I cut everything that I did not listen. I spent some time checking them. There were notable and other differences not so. I noticed a difference in the WMA and WAV. It's light and sometimes noticeable. Most people cannot tell the difference, and an MA at home or in a club from a Wav will not be a huge difference, especially when a Dj, or you can set low, the midrange and treble slightly.

  I couldn't test the AAC lossless files. My program is old and can't stand them. AAFC would however close to WMA. Give or take.

  WAV is a champion and always the wins service. I wish he was marking. :-).

  Windows Media Player has a certain set of algorithms. And one CAN customize the tear. Some ripping programs ALLOW you to customize the way in which he is torn. But you can run into problems. For example: some compression or equalizer settings are perfect for 90% of an album, but most of the songs are recorded differently or edited and mixed differently. If they are not always level throughout the album, and there may be some fluctations.

  I myself would enjoy tears to measure for a better quality and even be able to MAXIMIZE the lossless or compressed (for example: mp3) formats and make their the best sound possible. But it takes too long, and most people don't have this time or need this. These people do as a profession, are HARDCORE audiophiles or archive sound for a much higher use,:-P.

  I don't know what are the algorithms of WMP to rip. ITunes or WinAmps, etc.. It comes to be able to do custom tears. These algorithms affect your copy, transfer and archiving. This is another reason why each program is slightly different, even when they use the same open or not open source coding.

  That's what I'v has learned. It's the best I got.

• Windows Media Player resets the music library

  In Windows Media player, everytime I got close and reopen the program, all my music is gone and he has to update all my music everywhere again.  This happens every time.  And if she keeps the songs, he puts two times each song in there.

  I also have a problem when I sync music, it stops randomly for a few songs and I have to close WMP and reopen it to make it work.

  the problem of the library!

  EDIT: Forget, it works, I don't know how, but I think it was something in the residential group, but I'm not sure.

• Windows Media Player 12 loses library at each reboot of the PC

  WMP 12 loses the 'music' in the library after each reboot.  Often, I can get the music content by going to manage the library, by removing the file from WMP, wait 5 minutes, restart WMP, manage the library, add the folder.  But sometimes it refuses to find music and I give up.  A few days later I try again and it works.  When he's stubborn...

  • When I have completed the "add a folder" an arrow appears at the bottom of WMP, to the right of the volume control.  After a few seconds, it signals that the update of the library is finished but the library does contain no music, but sometimes playlists are OK
  • Remove the library files in %userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Player does not help.
  • I tried to launch WMP as an administrator. (Not something I really want long-term, but I'll give it a go for a temporary fix).

  FYI, my music is on a NAS drive.  It doesn't matter if I'm pointing to the folder via a mapped drive or the full computer name & path.

  Any ideas?

  Hi Tim... It is almost certain because of the SIN. Take a look at this thread and see if there is anything useful here;

  Another action that can help (although I'm not offer it as a solution!) is to check that your music + subfolders on the NAS drive is optimized for music by doing a right click and select Properties 'customize' tab and proceed as indicated below. Hope you can solve the problem - Cheers, Ric.

  

• Windows Media Player 12 - updated the library

  I followed all the advice from others on the forum. However, the problem persists. I also disabled the network sharing service. If you call a service! Can someone give me info on how to fix my problem? I am running windows 7 and enjoy using WMP, but not when this update occurs.

  Thank you

  WMP always updates the library for a few seconds at the start, it's quite normal. Here, update means that new files will be added, no existing files will be deleted and the news of the changed files will be updated. WMP will not update files with the Internet album information, if these options are disabled. Tim Baets

• I want to transfer my Windows Media Player library on my Itunes account.

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Hello

  I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below.

  a. install iTunes on the system.

  b. open the program iTunes. Go to 'File' and click on "Add folder to library."

  c. Select your 'My music' folder (or the folder "Music" inWindows Vista). This is usually when the Windows Media Player stores your audio library. If you have songs stored in a different location on yourcomputer that you want to transfer it to iTunes, all simply, find and select the folder that contains your song files.

  d. If your music files are in WMA (Windows Media Audio) format, iTunes will ask you if you want to convert to the format. Click "Convert" to start the process. This process can take awhile, especially if you have a large audio library.

  e. after conversion finished, your song files in your library iTunes music.

  Thanks and regards.

• How to export my library of Windows media player 11

  Hello

  I want to transfer my Windows Media Player 11 on iTunes library - I can't do it from iTunes - how to export it WMP?

  Apple makes it pretty easy to transfer songs to iTunes from Windows Media Player. All you have to do is add your folder music in your iTunes library. If the songs are MP3 files, they are automatically imported. If you have WMA files, iTunes will offer to convert the files into a format supported iTunes. Here's a complete tutorial on the transfer songs from Windows Media Player, iTunes.

  Hi Billy,

  Try the following to force Windows Media Player to rebuild the library database.

  A handy utility to view all the files on your PC is called Commander free of charge, on the link below, because it displays the files that the operating system normally hides and has a search function.

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/PHP/download.php?id=107872&a=7122339&tag=601108&loc=10

  It is a zipped file.  If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip , which can be used to open it so that you can run the Setup program.

  Make sure that Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center are closed.

  Launch free Commander, double-click users, double-click on 'your username', double-click local settings, double-click Application Data, double-click Microsoft and double-click Media Player.  Delete all files with the extension .wmdb - do not delete all the files.

  Close the free Commander and open Windows Media Player - it will now start to rebuild the database of library which can take some time, but when it has finished you should see that you already deleted the files are no longer listed here.

  Kind regards

• Lose the metadata between Rpping and recently added to the library in Windows Media Player 11

  Hello

  I am running XP Pro SP3 with Windows Media Player 11.  When I copy a cd, I am able to see all metadata for the album, wallets, etc...  After extraction of the CD, when I go to the library and look in the library recently added, the album metadata disappears and I have to do an Album Info find all over again.   Is there a setting I need to use to keep the library metadata of the tear of the album?

  Thank you!

  Anna_Marie

  I suggest that you try to reset the library, by following the instructions for WMP 11 on XP at http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#medialibrary. Note the reset of the library will make you lose all the counts to play and possibly ratings too.

  Who help me?

• "Windows Media Player 12 - corrupted library.

  original title: the woes of 'Windows Media Player 12.

  Good first day and all.

  "Windows Media Player 12" (like the one provided with 'Windows 7') - I can't get it to work reliably.  No, this, scratching for 'reliable' read 'at all '...
  We have a library of about 35 000 titles, coded as "Windows Media Audio (Lossless)" (so using the Microsoft CODECs).  My sync.s with a Microsoft Office "Windows Mobile 6.1" ' phone ("HTC" "Touch HD" to be precise).
  Usage only I do 'Windows Media Player' is to synchronize playlists with my ' phone.  I tend not to listen to anything to help I have much better way to listen to music through a system of his PC and speakers crammed into an LCD monitor.  So "Windows Media Player" is just sitting there in the background.
  And some days she who will be quite happy without problems.  However (average) about 3 - 4 times a week, it will crash just randomly - up comes a dialog box saying «Windows Media Player has stopped working...» » ; or upward will come a message on my workspace is corrupted - "Media Player" will apparently remove and recreate automatically for me the next time it starts.
  The problem with that is it then everyone loses sync. settings, because it creates a new ID of the library for the new library, so I have to go and re - set my mobile, re-set-up device synchronization settings all the playlists I want to sync, etc etc etc etc and all this only after a wait of several hours for "Windows Media Player" to actually re-created the library first place.
  Basically, it's the two 'Windows Media Player' himself and tries to synchronize the music with my mobile device actually completely unnecessary and impracticable.  I'm not fan of Apple products but with Microsoft software using the Microsoft CODECs and synchronization to a mobile operating system of Microsoft being so completely and totally unnecessary I can quite understand why people just go and buy iPod (or iPhone, or...)-at least Apple understand media, including Microsoft obviously doesn't...
  So, after only 4 hangs 2 library reconstructions and only today (he is obviously having a particularly bad day today...) I thought that "enough is enough" and sought technical support options.
  Now, I'm not about to pay stupid amounts to Microsoft to tell them that their software is broken, and for them, finally, to answer "Yes, and? ...".  So I thought I would look on the Microsoft support site to see what options are available.  Apparently none - despite 'Windows 7' having been out for a while now, all Microsoft support pages only refers to 'Windows Media Player' versions up to version 11.  Come on Microsoft, which is pretty poor, is it not?  I know only for about 2 years 'Windows 7' RTM (Release To Manufacturing), so maybe it's a little early to wait to talk about "Windows Media Player 12" on your sites... support?  (this is sarcasm, in case anyone was wondering...)
  So I turn on the forums.  Does anyone else have a great experience (and I think that ~ 35 000 titles probably called 'wide') libraries with "Windows Media Player 12", and if so have you had any problems?  Someone has suggestions for additional diagnostics (for example, try to establish exactly what causes the library should be damaged or for 'Windows Media Player' suddenly to be considered "stopped working")
  ?
  What's happening on my machine "Windows 7 Professional (x 64)" with 8 GB of RAM and a lot of free space on the disk, so resources should not be a problem. "  It also happens on all the various other machines that we have here (all running "Windows 7 Professional"; for most of the "x 64").  It never used to happen with all that the latest version of 'Windows Media Player' was to 'XP' (but who had his "own collection of the bad guys to use"ActiveStink"...) so there shouldn't be anything specific library - it certainly seems to be problems specifically with "Windows Media Player 12".
  Any suggestions gratefully received...

  Method 1 fixed an issue, I've had where Media player would not start.    If I tried to play an mp3 file I get "Server error".  Bad shooting Diagnostics said my configuration was corrupted and my library was corrupt.  But it didn't fix it. Uninstall and reinstall using Windows features has not solved my problem.   With the FixIt solution, my problem has been resolved.
