We just recently subscribed to windows media player to listen to music and dvd's and all that good stuff, and when we push the play button, it will play the whole song and go on the the next, but you cannot hear a thing, and i know it's not my speakers because when we click on any other medias, we can hear everything ok... what can i do to fix this problem? i know its something with windows media player and not my computer... Thanks!

I'm assuming you're using a recent-build Windows PC. Here's the link from Microsoft: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/burn-a-cd-or-dvd-in-windows-media-player. Media player must be recent enough in version to burn disk media--otherwise, you must obtain a software product that will burn media for you. Your PC must also be equipped with a CD, DVD, or Blu-Ray burner. CD-R disks easily prove available from discount stores, music stores, electronics stores, or online.

As for compatibility, Phillips indicates that CD-R is compatible. I hope that you don't have a problem. That depends upon the media manufacturer and how its product interacts with the Phillips. Compatibility likely won't prove a problem. Certainly, check that out before the next trip....

Hi,

This issue may occur if the license for the track you are trying to play has expired on the device. If you currently subscribe to a music subscription service, connect the device and sign into the account to refresh your license to allow for playback. You may need to do this once during each billing period to listen to the subscription music you have transferred. If you are no longer a subscriber to the service where you downloaded the file from, you can delete the song from your portable player to prevent this error from occurring each time you try to play the song back.
If the issue happens with all the songs in the Player, format the Player and transfer the songs again using the Software or by dragging using the Windows Explorer.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Not sure if either of these helps, but hope so:
1-After you boot up/turn on, is the word "Music" showing in the window? If not, use the right arrow button to move the menu to Music, then hit the M button and it will start playing.
2-Mine (797) has a bad headset hole so only plays one ear unless I push up in the plug wire. I just put a rubberband tightly around the plug and pull the band up over the top to pull it into a position where I can hear both earsets.

Hi there,

Well problem seems in the file format of the mp3 player, please let me know in which file format do you copy the songs into your mp3 player? make sure the file format is supported by your mp3 player. (when you play these files in windows media player it played because window media player played all(maximum) file formats.)
post further comments for more information....

Good Luck!!

Thanks

from what i read, the yahoo media player is a for webmasters to play music on their site.

you might want to try http://new.music.yahoo.com/

if you just want to listen to music.

hook it up to your computer and allow windows media player to sync your mp3 player to the computer.

these types of mp3 players usually reformat when you attempt to add new files. When it reformats it deletes all information and restores the original stuff. Try using Windows Media Player 10 or 11 to add music

use windows media player. if you go to the top wher eit says now playing library rip burn and sync, choose sync then take songs from windows media player, limewire, or itunes and put them in windows media players then put them in the sync list and connect your mp3 then push start sync once you have all the music you want on the list. hope this helps you =)

When you try to play it the screen should say locked. Push the bottom button that says hold and the screen should say unlocked. Hope that helps. I just bought the same MP3 player and am liking it so far.

1- Check that your MP3 Player's File system is OK, you can do that using the DOS command (chkdsk /f). 2- Re-install your Windows Media Player 11. 3- Don't forget to update your system, too.
