I have a problem with windows media player 11. if i go to "find album info" it will work the first time, but then if i go to choose another song, it says i am not connected to the internet. i tried rolling back to WMP10 but it didn't help, so installed 11 again and it still didn't help. what should i do? thanks

Hi Weird,

- Right click on the title, and go to File.
- Click on Work Offline.

already checked that. it's not set to work offline

You don't have much luck with media players weird! You must be cursed!

Ok, I only have two more suggestions:

You can also enable it this way:
- Go to Tools, Options, Player tab
- Put a tick in "Connect to the Internet...".

Also:
- Go to Control Panel, Internet Options
- Click on the Security tab, and click on Trusted Sites
- Click on the Sites button and add *.allmusic.com

thanks, but it didn't help. the first think you told me to do was already checked, and doing the second didn't help. I think there is something wrong with my computer that is messing everything up :/

ok i have another problem with WMP11. My home stereo has a feature to connect a computer to it through usb. i connected this and i hear sounds from my IM program (trillian) through the stereo speakers, and if i play music in winamp, but when i play a song in WMP11, it plays through the laptop speakers. I had it working before, and the first i've noticed it not working is since i upgraded from WMP11 beta to WMP11. I do not know if that was the problem or not, but what do you recomend i do to get my music to play through the stereo.

thank you, and i'm sorry i've been having so many problem.

EDIT: I just tried playing music through media center, and it played the music through the laptop speakers aswell, but the navigation noises were through the stereo.

Yeah Weird, you do seem to be having a lot of media related problems. It might be worth you going through "Prework" on my signature to make sure there is no malware causing your problems.

You may have already tried this but you can set your default device,
Media Player
- Click on Tools, Options, Devices tab.
- Click on "Speakers" followed by Properties
- Change your audio to the appropriate device.

Control Panel (to ensure the speakers are not your default)
- Double click on Sound and Audio Devices
- Audio tab
- Change your audio to the appropriate device.
