Hi All,

Can someone please help me with my palylist. I have songs in a folder on my PC; everytime I import these songs in either Itunes or Media player they will not paly. The list is present but everytime i select PLAY they just skip and will not play.

It seems that Itunes and Media player cannot play these songs, the curser just runs up and down the list and does not stop at any songs to play.

Can someone please help me??

Thanks

Hi motorcyclenoy,

Several things could cause this off the top of my head: the files are corrupt, the location the players think they are playing from is incorrect, they are the wrong format, loading from an old playlist, etc.

What type of audio files are these? WAV, MP3, WMA, MID... ?

What are the sizes of the files? (click once and look to the details collumn on the left of the folder window, or right-click and select Properties)

Have you tried removing them all from the playlists (but not from the computer) and then re-adding them to the playlist?

Will these files work on their own if you double-click to play them from the folder one at a time?

Make sure that all of the files are in the correct location. For example: if your files were on a removable storage device, and you linked your playlist to it, then the playlist will obviously not work.

So, I would suggest that you ensure that all of the files are in the same location, and the file names are the same.

Yes, and as Invalid Entry said, try re-creating the playlist.

Hi and thank you for your kind advice.

I found that by removing my anti virus softwear and re-installing it now the playlist works fine. This was a last resort but it worked. By the way the anti virus program is F-Secure and i dont recomend it to anybody.

I wil recomend this site to others - i think it is brilliant.
