WMA files have sound to them playing with windows 7 but not windows XP.

original title: wma files have sound to them playing with windows 7 but not windows XP.  This is the same file, any ideas?

When you play a file using Media Player in Windows 7, there is a sound noise on the file, the same file in Windows XP is fine. The file has been converted to WAV using Wavelab in Windows XP and is fine. It is only on Windows 7 machines, there is a problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello

1. is the specific question at this specific file format?

2. do you get an error message?

3. the problem persists on a single computer to Windows 7?

Most likely you are missing a codec. You can set Windows Media Player to automatically download and install the codecs.

a. Open the Windows Media Player.

b. click on Tools and then Options.

c. click the Player tab.

d. check the Download codecs automatically.

    I have a network of offices with windows 7 and XP PC 6 PC 7. Each day network neighborhood loses the xp computers. I can always ping them but they do not appear on the network. The PC xp always had access to the internet and can still ping windows 7 PC normally, but I can't connect to the shares or see them in the network neighborhood.

  • No video is coming, but only sound, when I play in windows Media Player 11, os is xp

    No video is coming, but only sound, when I play in windows Media Player 11, os is xp

    Hi james_pl1973,
     
    -Is this type of specific file to some issue or is it the same with all types of files?
    -You get an error message or error code trying to watch the video for files?

    It is likely that the codec is correct / encoder is not installed or is installed but has been corrupted by another program.

    A codec is a software to compress or decompress a digital media file, such as a song or a video. Windows Media Player and other programs use codecs to play and create digital media files.

    A codec can consist of two components: an encoder and a decoder. The encoder performs the compression function (coding) and the decoder performs the decompression function (decoding). Some codecs include both components and some codecs only one of them.

    For example, when you rip a song from an audio CD on your computer, the player uses Windows Media Audio default codec to compress the song into a compact WMA file. When you play that WMA file (or any WMA file that may be broadcast from a Web site), the player uses the Windows Media Audio codec to decompress the file for music can be played through your speakers.

    Follow the steps listed in the article given below to resolve this issue.

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

    Hello

    I'm trying to fix my settings my current machien to a W7 VM user to make sure that I have the transfer settings and I get all the information I want.  My machine is 64 bit, but the VM is 32-bit.  I can't seem to get the easy transfer Windows from Windows Vista to play with Windows 7 easy transfer and can't seem to install the transfer Windows 7 because it gives me only a 32-bit version to install...

    How I have a 64-bit Windows 7 Easy Transfer to install and if I get one to install and build a transfer saved the data file has there 'restore' on a 32-bit Windows?

    Hi George P Boutwell,.

    Thank you for using answers Forum.

    I think that VMware has a 64-bit/function version. You will need to contact them to verify this.
    64-bit to 32-bit is not supported by Windows Easy Transfer, as far as I know.

    I hope this helps.

  • I have a new HP Envy with Windows 8 desktop computer that still does not run properly. I rebooted, restored, ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow, uninstall/install update etc...

    I have a new HP Envy with Windows 8 desktop computer that still does not run properly. I have rebooted, restored (im doing this), ran chkdsk, sfc/scannow, malware, virus, uninstall/install etc and my machine wil always do not run for a long time without going through some sort of problem after an hour or two.  Can anyone suggest what to do about this? I read a lot of information online on all the windows 8 and fixes bugs, etc, but anything Microsoft/Windows, which ensures its customers, a hotfix or compesating their customers with software that still works. This isn't a hardware problem, and I can't keep day and bad shooting and trying to fix the day things in?

    Sincerely,
    A client who is a loss for words.
    Here are some problems in no particular order.
    1.) apps to not install it, and/or Windows saying they are when they are in fact not. The fix to install / uninstall, or get on the site of windows directly in general does not, and or does not at all.
    The change permissions 2.) does not work on files that you should be able to access in changing oxnership, permissions, etc.
    3.) Google chrome won't let me access my account of microsoft (or fact rarely) trying to access assistance. But internet Explorer doesn't?
    Randomly will increase from Internet 4.) a previous connection wired to wireless to a reboot.
    5.) my 8 'key' windows was only shown to me after that I have let Windows scan my machine online? Why? I paid for this... I restarted it and it says: service not available (it worked the third attempt which was 1-3 minutes after the initial analysis). Windows only showed my product ID not the key. I know that my victory. 8 was OEM when preinstalled I bought it new, but why didn't we files on it that had nothing to do with activation, appearing on dates for three weeks, or so before I bought it. What is the 'activation of the factory'?
    6 :) Windows Essentials does not hang for a long time, and the troubleshooterprogram of update simply does not work (I had to go to the website to try tp operate, the bluetooth functionality is not good that there is an error.
    7.) windows scan and repair gets stuck at 27% (Im not the only one with this problem).
    8.), avery MS Office 2013 Disappears so often and not easy to reload "we have encountered a problem.
     

    The computer manufacturer is responsible to see that it works properly with Windows 8. It says that it is a new computer I contact HP and make these problems their. If you don't get satisfactory results I turn and look elsewhere for a computer. Hope this helps and if you need another post to help and we will be happy to help you.

    I have Photoshop CS6 and when I go to HDR toning, it is only highlighted for work with some photos, but not others, why?  Thank you.

    HDR toning does not work with CMYK images. Change the RGB color mode, and then you will be able to use HDR toning. It also works with the color to grayscale mode.
