WMP11 & sharing media w / Xbox 360 - does not display settings ' share my media to.

Recently, I tried to connect my Xbox 360 to my laptop PC running Windows XP SP3. All the official how - in fact seem as easy as going to WMP 11, then the 360 was on and connected to the network and will 'Media Sharing' and check the box, "share my media". However, while they were inspecting the area, nothing happens, no detail windows open upwards. All are two buttons, OK and CANCEL. I click OK, all gray outside for a while as the settings are applied, then it returns to the same window sharing media files, no new options, no new parameters. Like nothing happened.

And indeed, nothing has changed.

Gentlemen, what do I do?

AGVKrioni,

Sorry to hear about your difficulties.  No fun!  If the Xbox 360 don't watch not appear inside WMP 11 as a shared device, then it is possible that WMP 11 does not see the Xbox.

1. the xbox is completely up to date via xbox live?

2. it can also be caused when the Xbox and computer are actually on 2 different networks (despite being connected in the same building).  Connect the computer or Xbox Wireless?  To check that they are in fact on the same network, obtain the IP address of your Xbox.
-Go to system settings network settings.  Note the IP address.
-Go to your computer.  See if you can test your XBOX (see on the network).  Open the prompt (start, run, "cmd").  Type "ping ipaddresshere ".  Do you have an answer?

3. check that you have all the latest Windows updates (there may be other updates/patches for network management issues)

4 turn off your Windows Firewall

I hope that these 4 ideas help or someone much more intelligent that I add ideas, because there is nothing else I can offer.  I hope that helps!  Good luck.

    My Xbox 360 suddenly stopped recognizing the pictures and videos using Windows Media Center.  I have a number of files on my laptop that I like to stream through Media Center so I can watch them on my TV, but WMC no longer seem to acknowledge their existence.  I can play my entire library of music very well, but when I try to access my photos and my videos, it shows me my user folder and claims that there is nothing in it.  Not really sure where to start even on that.  My firewall is let through the WMC and my network is configured to share media.  Windows Vista by the way.

    I plug in my sansa view on my 360, it will say "connected", but it not is as "portable device" if I could play it through the system... I would appreciate help

    You will need to put your content on the MSC view (put the player left hold/press release of scroll wheel/plug in device).

    In addition, you will need to connect the view in the Xbox in the same way as it appears in MSC mode.

    Enjoy.

  • Windows Media Center extender on my XBOX works initially, but not after reboot of my XBOX. Error: Failed to connect to the Xbox 360 could not connect to the windows Media Center computer.

    It's VERY odd and very annoying!

    I set up my laptop next to my Xbox 360 with an Ethernet cable directly connecting the laptop to the XBOX, and the laptop is on our wireless network. The XBOX has access to the internet (shared through the laptop), and when I test the PC connection and the connection XBOX Live sound fine to all.

    So I'll try to set up Windows Media Center, it works great! I "Add Extender", put the code to 8 digits. It passes through the installation, all works, no problems and WMC opens on the XBOX, I can go into my library, watch movies etc... works great!

    However! As soon as I turn my XBOX off and back on, it will fail to connect to the WMC.

    He says his 'find Windows Media Center PC' which seems to work fine, it goes to the ' Windows Media Center loading screen "contact...". ", and after about 10 seconds, I get an error"failed to connect the Xbox 360 could not connect to windows Media Center PC. Make sure that the PC is turned on and connected to the network.

    I tried to configure the Extender repeatedly, whenever it works fine until I restart the XBOX... :/ - and its strange cause I still the internet connection (shared through the laptop) after turning on the XBOX, its really JUST Media Center which is screwing around.

    She continues to keep trying to connect then repeatedly fails.

    If I wanted to, I could re-configuration the WMC Extender EVERY TIME turn off the Xbox, which works the first time without fault, but that's all just stupid.

    I can't really understand what is happening here... any help would be appreciated.

  • File sharing with my Xbox 360

    I have an Xbox 360 (the older white kind) that I used to share media files to my network wireless for my laptop.  Recently it has stopped working.  I replaced my old Linksys G Router for a new Netgear N300.  I have set my network sharing settings in the same way that I already had, and it has stopped working.  I still gave in and just hooked up the old linksys router, but now it wont even work with it.   My pc can see my xbox 360 but my 360 does not detect my pc. I have my 360 hard wired to the router and then I could always just see my laptop wireless at that time here.  Help, please!  I am running windows vista 64' put his point most recent up-to-date.

    Give the Xbox a ip address and add its IP address in the DMZ on the router option. If its got a. That's what I had to do, to save me to add ports to the router. Given that (the router, I got, Dlinks info on the site was wrong, it didn't work anyway lol).

    Saved me a lot of time. Don't forget to configure the center of media on the Xbox and enter the digit 8 in so it will work (if you want to use Media center as well)

  • Windows Media Center does not display my photos. I tried to re-setup my album and it shows my files but no pictures in them. I can see my photos in all viewers

    all my photos are in JPEG format, I download my photos on several websites and on my Windows live.com page, I also see with Windows Live Photo Gallery, I use Adobe Photoshop 7 to edit and save my pictures in .jpeg format, I can visualize in Picasa, PhotoStudio, ZoomBrowers EX etc.. I can spend my photos to one of my other computers and my pictures by e-mail, and they can be consulted. I open one of my photos in Photoshop and saved in a folder on my desktop in .jpeg and .bmp and it does not display. I sort my folder in date and make sure that hidden files is checked. I know I'm missing something, but still nothing.

    Hello
     
    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!
     
    How long have you had this problem?

    All files compatible photo in your library in Windows will appear in Media Center, including whatever it is stored in the folder my pictures or public photo. If you store images somewhere else, like an external hard drive, you can add them to the Media Center as well. To learn how, see Add files to media in Windows Media Center.

    The following is a list of reasons why an image will not display in Media Center, as well as suggestions for correcting the problem.

    • The picture file type is not supported in Media Center. For example, some digital camera photos are saved in the RAW file format, which is not supported in Media Center. If you have a photo editing software, try to open the picture in that program, and then resaving in a file type that is supported (for example, JPEG). To see what types of files are supported in Media Center, see file types supported by Windows Media Center.

    • The file is corrupted. If this is the case, try to open the image in another photo editing program, and then save it back into a different file type. For more information on the damaged files, see the files corrupted: frequently asked questions.

    • The file is hidden. You can view a hidden file by changing its properties in Windows. For more information, see Show hidden files.

We rebooted the modem and the router as well, and the XBox 360 do not always connect. Any ideas how to make so that it can connect to our secure network without messing up the network that we have already had to reset and set again only a couple of weeks and don't want to go there again.

    My Firefox has just automatically updated itself to the version 42. The extention under modules page does not display the extensions I have installed.

There is unfortunately no. I have a screenshot. I'm not sure if I have permission to upload it to the media gallery. I also use Linux, but I did not upgrade that are still there.
