  • My Sony Walkman nwz-e385 and Walman Sony nwz-s545 will not work with Windows 8? Windows media player is not compatible with Windows 8, or?

    I can't use my Sony players with any of the Windows music applications you offer. How this can be solved? Can I return my phone and fix my old with Windows Vista so that I can use my current MP3 player?

    I just ran a Google search for your devices and came across this for Sony Walkman NWZ-E385 FAQ page:

    http://www.Sony.com.my/support/product/NWZ-E385/FAQ

    By reading the information in there, it seems to me you want to transfer multimedia content from your PC to this device or vice versa, the best way to go is to install Media Go software in the computer and use it to make this work. Here is the link to download Media Go:

    http://MediaGo.Sony.com/enu/features

    You must install this software in the computer, connect the Walkman using connection cables that you have, then using this software, you must transfer music on the device.

    Who help me?

  • Windows Media Player will not sync with my iPod

    I have Windows Media Player 11 on my laptop, and when I try to sync my library with my iPod, windows does not show even my iPod is connected. I made my drive by default, but I don't know what else to do.  Other programs such as iTunes and Bearshare see my camera very well, is there something else I need to download or what? I've tried everything I can think of, and I am at a loss.  Can someone help me please?

    Hi VicVicVictoria,

    Windows Media Player are not compatible with the iPod. You may need to purchase a plug-in to sync the iPod to your windows media player.

    Otherwise, you will get assistance from Apple to download and use iTunes from the IPod website.

  • synchronization of songs on an i - pod on windows media player

    I'm trying to sync songs on my i - pod using windows media player, but when I plugged my iPod into my laptop there not appear in windows media player on the connect a device.

    Hello

    Unlike other MP3 players, iPods use the software Apple iTunes to transfer music to the computer. Using iTunes, you can store a music library on your computer.

    If you are using Windows Vista, you must go to the Apple web site and download iTunes for your version of Vista.  Then you can sync your iPod with your computer.

    Windows Media Player are not compatible with the iPod. To work around the problem, you can search for a third party plug-in syncing the iPod to your windows media player online.

    For more information, see the following links:

  • multiple copies of each song in the playlist on Windows media player

    OK here is the problem Windows media player started acting up six months ago in taking my music and doubling and tripling, so next time I opened the player instead of having a song should be 2 to 3 to 4 copies of the same song wasn't a single album it was different albums all new songs of my old songs I had before on another computer has not copied over.

    It was the first problem, the second problem which began about three months ago, I started noticing the programs that I installed on the computer telling me that I had a visual experience better if I update Windows media player, not a program but several when I checked the version it has been updated.

    So why if it's updated all programs says visual experience would be better if I updated the player?  so I go into troubleshooting utility to see what could be wrong.  When is the troubleshooting he wants to restore default I very well it but it never gets done and the problem does not get resolved?  Convenience store also happens with configuration parameters are defined bad convenience store as soon as the defect does not solve the problem if any body knows how to solve this problem Windows player plays correctly, but it is very tiring having to remove 300 songs because they have doubled and tripled.  My operating system is Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit Windows media player as I can tell is number 11 and a updated version of programs that are installed on my computer tell me to update? I have other programs that do also video just need to know why Windows media player is not compatible or apparently not compatible with other programs? no response would be good any help would be nice.

    Help, help, help, help, please.

    Hi Ken

    I see that you have not been offered help with this yet, so we'll see if we can get something going on!

    Firstly if you have Windows 7 you must run WMP 12. You run automatic updates from MS?

    In any case I want you to try is - go to "User accounts" in the control panel and together an account "number two". When this is done to insert a cd and Media Player will open and ask you to use the default settings or customize it. I had to go for custom parameters and in the quality of at192mbps "rip music" tab select mp3 or more (you can get a box pop up asking you to accept copyright laws - accept and continue)...

    When he's ready, rip the cd and we'll see if this second account behaves or if you get the same problem of duplication. Looking forward to the result!

  • Compatible decoder Windows Media Player DVD question

    I have Windows XP, Service Pack 3 and am running Windows Media Player 11.

    Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on my computer.  How can I get a free compatible decoder?

    Look at the following thread: -.

    "Windows Media cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer"

  • I went to play a DVD on my computer this evening and received this msg: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.

    DVD decoder not installed?

    I went to play a DVD on my computer this evening and received this msg: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.
    A few weeks ago, I played DVD on my computer. I would like to know what is happening. Any ideas/suggestions?

    I tried to play one of the same DVDs I played before... same message.  Nothing to my knowledge has been removed from my computer and I'm the only one with access... "very confused.

    Thanks if anyone can help.

    Yes, and if you install the utility on your system, you'll see all decoders.

    The utility will also tell you if a decoder is compatible or not.

    Using Media Player version 10 or 11?

    the utility tells me I have no decoder... the only thing I can think is that if I actually deleted it... I rarely remove anything because I do not add a lot... but it is possible a few weeks ago, I have to get rid of some things (I'm quite cautious because I'm not an expert).   It is the Media Player version 11, I was trying to use... but I rebooted now 10 to see if there was something to update related that mess.

    because I used the VLC Player successfully, I have not yet tried Windows Media Player (since WMP reloading and load the codec pack)

    So great to have the entry of a person who knows what he's doing.  Thanks again. I will try the Windows Media Player later and see if I have his use of return.

    Have a great day!

  • DVD will not play to get compatible Windows Media Player decoder error is installed

    I always get the error message saying that no compatible decoder is not installed, even though I downloaded the Roxio decoder such as web assistance suggested!

    THIS MARKET! Thanks to all the VLC player works with my 2nd DVD I burned

    Glad you were able to get your dvd to play. While VLC Player may have worked Windows Media Player works with the appropriate codecs.
