Pocket PC Forum / End Users / Multimedia / January 2006Sync problems with Windows Media Player 10
Hi, I'm using a Dell Axim x51v and can't get WMP10 to detect the device. (Active Sync works fine). Does anyone know whether this is a known problem with Windows Media Player 10, or have any suggestions? Thanks in advance... Stu I have a x51v and was able to initially sync my device thru WM10. However, I have not been able to have WM recognize my device since I installed the Yahoo Music Engine last night. It also uses WM10 as its engine so I wonder it disabled the partnership in the registry. I've already reinstalled WM10 once without any effect. Will uninstall Yahoo and see what happens. > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Stu I had a similar problem as giofiocci. I was able to sync my x51v with WM10 once. After that, WM10 won't recognize my device. I did not install Yahoo, though. I had put an SD card in the device between sync attempts, though. Any luck for anyone else? I have a Axim x51 and I'm having the same problem. It doesn't even know its there and it never has. I have a 1GB SD card in it and the only way I can get music on it is file sharing. Haven't figured out playlists at all.... I'm so confused... --Matthew YES! Having the same problem here, only diff. is I'm using a new iPAQ 1955. Nothing but problems -- not only software incompatibility (with WM5.0), but I also just put a 1GB SD card in, and went to sync some music -- only to find WMP10 cannot find the device! Reset w/ F5 does nothing. Tried to go back to WMP9 -- but of course the system will not allow older software to be installed -- shut me down. Maybe the installation of the SD card is an issue? This is insane. Has anyone figured this out yet? Jonathan > I have a Axim x51 and I'm having the same problem. It doesn't even know its > there and it never has.

Has anyone figured this out yet? Sorry if this sounds unhelpful, but smart people figured out a long time ago that WMP sucks, so we don't use it. If you run a firewall and ActiveStink 4, you could try following the steps specific to your firewall here - http://tinyurl.com/c85d3. Even though AS may appear to be working itself, and the troubleshooter doesn't specifically mention WMP, likely the same underlying communications issues are in play. Hi All, I had the same problem with a jasjar imate. Apparently the problem is cause by installing media player 10 after active sync. Resolution basically to repair active syn installation as some files are not copied when media player 10 is not present. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;901055 > [...] > > This is insane.

I had the same problem that you all described. I was able to fix it by repairing "microsoft active sync" under "add/remove programs". using this link that someone suggested: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;901055 FYI. > Hi All, > [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] >> doesn't specifically mention WMP, likely the same underlying >> communications issues are in play.

Repairing the Active Sync installation worked for me! Thank you very much! --Matthew Ellis > Hi All, > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > doesn't specifically mention WMP, likely the same underlying > > communications issues are in play. I have an Axim x51v, with A04 installed, Active Sync 4.1.0. I turned off Windows Firewall, removed the CF card, did a soft reset and WMP 10 still doesn't recognize the Axim. I am directly connected via USB. Anybody from Microsoft care that 3 of their products don't play well together (Active Sync, WMP 10 and Windows Mobile A04) This post has been on the board for a month and still no response from MS > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Stu > I have an Axim x51v, with A04 installed, Active Sync 4.1.0.

I have an new RX1955 and have similar synch problems but have additional playback problems beyond what has been mentioned in this thread. WMP10/WM5 gives me scratchy digital noise instead of audio when I play back either a WMA audio file or a WMV video file. Video plays back fine. MP3's play audio fine. Anyone else having problems with WMA or WMV audio playback? On advice from an iPAQ forum I've also installed the TCPMP video player. I'm getting similar results with it: video + digital noise. mabiggs > I have an Axim x51v, with A04 installed, Active Sync 4.1.0.
