WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER SYNC ALWAYS SAYS "ALREADY ON THE DEVICE" WHEN HE IS NOT ON THE DEVICE.

I went on wmp to sync mp3 files on my Creative Zen MP3, but when I try and synchronize it always already says "on the currency." But when I check my mp3 songs are not on the device. If anyone has a solution please tell me.

Hi QALY,

Formatting the player Creative Zen MP3 should help you solve the problem of synchronization.

Note: Formatting the player Creative Zen MP3 will delete all the data on the MP3 player. Make sure to save your songs before formatting the MP3 player.

After formatting the MP3 Player try to check if you can sync without any problems.

I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

Thank you and best regards,

  • Windows Media Player cannot always find the info to the album by tearing or playing

    I really like WMP (very flexible features, changes and types of rip)... BUT the music identification software is horrible. You type the name of an album (because it will not appear) and the search function will give you pages on visits that are not even close. You type in Santana and might get the IDS of several firsts as suite Vivaldi Saint something or other, which? Maybe on the next page of hits that you could find the album you typed in and exactly how you typed it, huh. Why wouldn't be the first shot? This search feature is how stupid? For example. I could type in Masters of Classical Music Vol.1, Mozart, and it will give me all MCM volumes but the one I want. Get rid of the vol.1 or Mozart, or both, and you have the right ID even faster, what? Many of the volumes MCM yielded no ID of classical music at all, what? Was a time, you can click Update music info. and get the ID/album art correctly most of the time. How can the system ID is worserer over time instead of better.

    I tried to do some of the things I like to do with WMP NERO9 and Nero9 turned out to be much less flexible, but the Gracenote ID system has a very high success rate 99 percent to get the ID of music correctly tagged for songs and albums. AND I don't need to hunt for the news of the album that is already in the database somewhere. The version of Nero on my laptop does not burn WMA lossless or 320 kbps mp3.

    So, I guess my question is, are at - it a trick to get WMP albums ID with precision and without me having to hunt through independent music lists? With no luck, I have disabled the Windows Firewall. Furthermore, this isn't a victory op sys. problem, because all oenological practices (11 or 12) of 7/Vista/XP all are terrible to find the data of the ID. I cringe every time that I try to copy a classic CD, because many times you will need to enter all the data from the massive album manually for a single tear. Data entry takes way longer than the period of investigation. Yes, it sucks. Rock albums are easier to obtain, but not always easy.  Creative, included at the same time, a software suite that was very good, but over time, they forced now to buy some of these subtleties with their sound cards.

    Anyone has any ideas on this topic?

    Hi Waynesalo,
    As you may know, the Microsoft answers Forum is a community of users of Windows software that contribute and answer questions to help each other. It isn't a developers or programmers (unless you want to register) forum at all. However, there are many developers and programmers forums out there that deal with more complex issues such as you pinned. If you want to dive into the more detailed questions, you can start with one of the links below:

    http://blogs.technet.com/b/Win7/archive/2011/04/05/new-included-music-files-are-not-displayed-in-Windows-Media-Player-library.aspx
    Secondly, I understand the problem you are running into. As a DJ part-time, trying to find some hip-hop and R & B songs is almost impossible. You can watch the server so that the news of the album are pulled. If I remember correctly, you have the choice of three. I found this not have all the information I'm looking for, so I settled on a cause it's less time consuming enter my settings and change this server info each time. Now, I don't know if you have the possibility to change this information in WMP 11 or 12, I use an older version.

    In addition, if you want to talk directly to Microsoft of its products, let me suggest this link:

  • Windows Media Player error message says that I don't have the media usage rights acquisition.

    Original title: Windows Media Player

    Am not able to play music in Windows Media Player to the library after the transfer of music from another computer.  Error message says that I don't have the media usage rights acquisition.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community and we give the opportunity to help you.

    Cause of the error:

    Windows Media Player uses Microsoft Digital Rights Management (DRM) to protect the rights of content owners who protect their music or video products in this manner. You must have usage rights required to play, burn, or sync protected content.

     

    How to upgrade the DRM license?

    By default, Windows Media Player will automatically attempt to acquire the rights of use in silence unless the server requires some input on your part (for example, registration or tax information). You can disable the automatic rights acquisition. In this case, you will be asked to obtain the rights for any new content that requires them. To prevent Windows Media Player from acquiring rights automatically, do the following:

    a. click on the arrow on the now playing tab, and then click Other Options.

    b. click on the Privacy tab, and clear the automatically check if protected files need to be refreshed check.

    Please note that this setting affects not acquisition of rights of use of online stores.

    I would have you readers of third party temporarily Uninstall and check if persists it to the question.

    Step 2:

  • Windows Media Player 12: How to permanently display the list pane

    Windows Media Player 12: Always list

    Hello world

    I've recently updated my computer to Windows 7.

    When I was on XP, the list of WMP 11 component was always displayed in the right part of the screen (except mode full-screen).
    Now WMP 12, I have to manually right-click and choose "View list" whenever I open WMPand whenever a new video starts .

    Could you tell me how to permanently display the list pane?

    Thank you

    Kind regards
    Phil

    There is no way to get or retain the component 'list' in Windows Media Player 12. You must create a playlist to see your playlist.

    I've been playing with this for hours trying to get the same thing your tyring to get.  Microsoft has changed a lot in the Windows Media Player 12 version. The latest version of the windows media player 11 is the only version that can display the playlist pane.

    Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file. (MPEG)

    Don't know why Windows Media Player does not accept your mpeg.

    Just a suggestion:

    Use a video converter and change your mpeg to wmv format and read it.

    If you don't have a video converter, google for a free Converter. No need to buy a.

    You can also install VLC media player.
    It's free.

    You can get on a conversion of 70% in reading a file in Windows Media Player using something like Dragon Naturally Speaking to convert. If you set the playback speed to slow in Windows Media Player to play > play speed, you will get a better result. The best option is to download the file to an audio transcription service, but which generally costs 0, 50-1, 00 per minute of audio.
