Hi, I'm disturbed by the same problem (I got the exact Sony mp3 player and Vista too). The thing is that connect software runs good in my old XP pc, but when I reinstalled in my new portable with Vsita, get exactly the same message error.

Well, I uninstalled the old software and installed the Sonicstage driver for Vista, but now I get another message error when I connect the mp3 usb, and Sonicstage program closes instantly. It's weird cause the software looks to works fine until I connect the damn mp3!

Can anyone give me a help pleae? :-(

According to the Sony website the connect player won't run under Vista. They suggest downloading their Sonic Stage software instead but according to the spec that won't show the current track playing.

I had this message but solved it by accident. One of these things did it: -run as administrator, or change user settings before reinstalling. -get the updates from the website. -install sonic stage. I had more than one problem (see my post)so I tried lots of different things, but I don't get that error message anymore. Hope that helps!

Sonicstage runs fine on mine, and I have Vista too. I'm not technical so I don't know what you mean by spec (lol-technophobe!) but my mp3 player shows the track playing and i can't see any difference except that it works now. Worth a try cos it worked for me.

When i write the message after send the message i can not see my message in window message and it show me blank but the reciver recive my message but i can not see the reciver message which he send me

The first thing to check is to make sure you have scripting enabled in Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer is integrated into Yahoo Messenger so things that go wrong with IE can affect Yahoo Messenger. Here is the yahoo help page about that: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/messeng...

2) In the Start Menu click on Run. Type, without the quotes, "regsvr32 jscript.dll" and then click OK. Next, repeat the process but this time type in the Run box "regsvr32 vbscript.dll" and click OK. Please note, if you are using Windows Vista temporarily disable the User Account Control (UAC). You can easily turn it back on. On the Control Panel (Category View) choose User Accounts and Family Safety, next choose User Accounts, and then click Turn User Account Control on or off.

3) If the above does not fix your problem and you are using Windows XP, you can update your Windows Script to version 5.7. In my experience helping others, this is the step that has helped the most people. Exit all browser windows and chat programs including Yahoo Messenger before installing. run registry cleaner reginout to easily fix it

How to download adobe flash for windw vista free

Download the latest and greatest version of the Adobe Flash Player. After it finishes installing, you go to a site featuring Flash content and are greeted with a message notifying you that you need to install Flash Player, but didn't you just do that? To properly update your Flash Player, you need to run the installation as Administrator. Follow these steps to properly install Adobe Flash Player:

For Vista (32 bit):

1. Open Computer.

2. Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\.

3. Scroll down and open the Macromed directory.

4. Open the Flash directory.

5. Right-click FlashUtil9b.

6. Select Run as Administrator.

7. When the UAC prompt appears, select Continue.

8. Follow the Flash Player installation wizard.

For Vista (64 bit):

1. Open Computer.

2. Navigate to C:\Windows\SysWOW64\.

3. Scroll down and open the Macromed directory.

4. Open the Flash directory.

5. Right-click FlashUtil9b.

6. Select Run as Administrator.

7. When the UAC prompt appears, select Continue.

8. Follow the Flash Player installation wizard.

Once the wizard completes, Flash Player has been properly installed and will now function properly.

My sansa mp3 player isn`t recognized by the computer

It may depend on your operating system, but there are known issues in vista. There is also a hotfix from microsoft. This is from the Sansa Website FAQs at http://www.sansa.com/support/sansa_clip/faqs

My Sansa player is not recognized by my computer when I connect it.

The most common reason for this problem is not having the latest Windows Media Player installed, or having a Windows OS version that is not supported by the Sansa player.

The Sansa players support Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista and above. If your operating system version is supported by the Sansa player:

SOLUTION 1 – Download and install the latest Windows Media Player

SOLUTION 2 – If that didn’t help, and you are running Windows Vista, apply the following hotfix - KB940199

SOLUTION 3 – If that didn’t help, download and Install the MTP Porting Kit (click here)

SOLUTION 4 – If that didn’t help, try connecting the device to the PC using MSC mode

On the Clip: Go to Settings > USB mode & choose MSC

I hope this helps and please don't forget to rate my answer.

MP3 NW-A1000

if the new laptop is running vista, then there is the problem. Vista is plagued with all sorts of user permission bugs. its seems that you need above admin permissions to do the most normal of things. bad software design from microsoft! vista is like going out with a super model, all singing, all dancing, looks fantastic, but after a while you realise she just a pain in the bum!

so...try right clicking the icon you are trying to launch and select "run as administrator" if the software does not run then there are two ways to cure this... the very quick way, but the problem may come back in the future with other software, or the long way, which will defo stop the issue and it ever coming back again!
the long one we will leave if the short fix does not work, so if that is the case and the short solution does not work then come back to me and i will give you instructions on how to change your user rights in vista. (this whole prob comes down to the user rights your login has been given) but we shall cross that bridge if we need to as it can be indepth.
if however you know how to change the user rights on account in vista then thats the solution, change your account to an 'administrator' in users on the laptop.

however, however... the very fast solution is this download this and install and hey presto your mp3 player and your pc are connected!

hope this helps! if not come back to me and i shall help further!!

dont forget to rate me! (if this helped that is!)

Software incompatability

Some one else had this problem and i explained i couldn't find any software for that mp3 player that was compatible for Windows Vista so i told him to try and use Windows Media Player 10 or 11 to put songs on and he said it worked.

To use Windows Media Player 10 or 11, connect your iPod then go to Windows Media Player at the top click on the link called "Sync" now your on that on the right is a pane drag and drop your music there then click "Start Sync" once sink is complete disconnect and see if that works.

If you do not have a latest version (you should have because your running Windows Vista.) if not for some unknown reason here is the latest Windows Media Player - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/11/default.aspx

Good luck. Hope my solution was helpful in some way. Further problems just leave a message on this page and i will get back to a.s.a.p.
