WIndows media player music sorce

Hi, I have on my computer a few music files in various formats, lower quality formats are used with iTunes for usage of mobile devices but I have the best quality formats that I use to listen to music around the House and I use the 'windows media player' but when I open the drive it is load all music files , I would limit the player just for higher quality files, and if I try to create a playlist I don't understand in the forms of album with all of the work of art as.

How can I solve this problem?

Thank you

Window7, 64

It must only be including these defined folders in the library music in Media Player.

However in the iTunes preferences, you can set a different location for its library. Or hold the SHIFT key when you start iTunes to get the ability to change/create a new library.

  • Windows Media Player music library maintains itself duplication

    My library of music guard preparation itself and I cannot understand why. I went through it and deleted duplicates twice now and a few days ago, they were back.  If I go in my libraries in the menu start none of my music splits just to the music to Windows Media Player list.

    If you have transferred once the song of Media Player. Do not open files in Explorer again. If you do, it will transfer the songs an extra time. So if you want to listen to your music, start by opening the media player and songs by finding th eosngs it.

I store my media (mainly), MS Office, PDF, and other various files on disc 2 of the secondary, internal size TB.  I have an external USB hard drive enclosure I can insert my player with internal 2 TB.  This allows me to take my multimedia files with me on vacation at home.  I can use this external box to read the media on other people's computers files, when I go on vacation.  When I put the internal drive in the external case in media players, the files appear, but do not work.  Their Player Windows Media displays a red "X" next to a lot of music album files and, when these red "Xs" appear, they appear in a cluster through the album of music together.  On my home computer, these Reds 'Xs' do not appear!  Another thing, some of the albums mysteriously disappear and reappear weeks later.  However, some of the files, when I play, his corrupt and static as in some places.  Sometimes the music files will play at Midway until it cuts and a red 'X' appears.  What happens here?

  • Windows 8 Xbox and Windows Media Player music app

    I think it happened when I upgraded to Windows 7 to 8.  Some of my old purchased music appears in the music app Xbox but can only be streamed. How can I get that back in Windows Media Player if I can do things with him (i.e. sync on my phone)?

    Hello

    To regain the rights to the files, contact the provider of the files. Some online stores offer this and likely to call it activation of the computer, computer authorization, library restoration, synchronization license or something similar.

    How to restore your digital rights varies from one store to the other. A store might limit the number of times that you can restore your rights, or it can limit the number of computers on which you can use the songs or videos that you got on their part. Some stores allow to restore the rights on all protected files.

    For more information on the store's policies, refer to support customer or the info on the help of your store. If you got your music or videos in a store that is no longer in business, you will not be able to restore your rights in this content.

    Hello

    You might have items in your library in Windows Media Player that are missing or incorrect information to the media, such as the titles of the songs, track numbers, artist names, album, or genre. Incorrect information can be added when you ripped the tracks from the CD or because you used another program to rip your CDs.

    I'm no expert in this area, but I think that you used the wrong application, namely Windows Media Player.
    A month ago, I did 2 DVD with images and music. Here's what I did...
    Open Windows Movie Maker...
    1. I imported images in the timeline.
    2. I imported the music (wma in your case) file to Audio column / music.
    3. I have synced it so that the images and the music would start and end at the same time.
    Note : If you already have the video file with import loan, then simple music video to the timeline and go to step #4.
    4. I clicked on publish on DVD.
    Windows DVD Maker wil pop up. You know the rest of the steps.

  • Music in Spotify, iTunes and Windows Media Player

    Well, I tried to use my programs of music on my computer for about a week and a half now, and that they won't play all my music. Not at all.  I went to support these programs, but they did not really help. I also checked to see if any of them were incompatible with my computer, which iTunes was the only one, and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the version 64-bit for Windows 8 and still nothing.

    I don't know if it's the sound of my computer, which I don't think it is, because it works for everything else except these three programs. And I have no idea why, and frankly, it's getting boring. I also checked my device manager and my sound system and everything is working properly.

    Anyone who can help and give me some answers on this as soon as possible, it would be greatly appreciated!
