Installing and removing the Player

Before installing Windows Media Player 11

Before you install Windows Media Player 11, do the following:
  • Go to Windows Update and install any high-priority updates that are available for your computer.
  • If you have a Creative ZEN device, see Issues updating firmware on Creative ZEN portable devices after installing Windows Media Player 11.
  • Save media information and ratings to your media files. Perform the steps in the following procedure to save media information and star ratings to your media files.
    1. In Windows Media Player 10, click the Tools menu, and then click Options.
    2. Click the Library tab, select the Maintain my star ratings as global ratings in the media files check box.
      When this check box is selected, the user ratings for your songs are saved in your media files rather than in your library database file. This process occurs in the background, so it may take some time before your ratings are saved to all of your media files.
      The next step in this procedure ensures that your ratings (and any changes that you have made to other media information) are saved to your files immediately.
    3. Click the Tools menu, and then click Process media information now.
  • Back up your existing data. To use the Backup Utility in Windows XP, click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Backup.

Known issues

Availability of online stores

Many of the great stores you know in Windows Media Player 10 are available in this version of the Player as well. If you have previously downloaded or purchased content from an online store by using Windows Media Player 10 or earlier, you will be able to continue using that content in Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP too. However, if the store is not listed on the Online Stores page, you will not be able to use Windows Media Player 11 to access that store to download or purchase new content.

For questions about the availability of URGE, see the Windows Media Player and URGE FAQ.

Backing up and restoring licenses

If you encounter an error message that indicates you are missing play, burn, or sync rights for a file and you had these rights previously, you might be able to resolve the problem by restoring your media usage rights. You have several options to do so:
  • If you obtained the file from an online store, contact the store to find out if it offers media usage rights (license) restoration (some stores refer to this procedure as computer activation, computer authorization, or license synchronization).
    The procedure for restoring your rights varies from store to store. For example, you might be able to right-click the file in your library or click an Error button or an Information button next to the file, and then click a command. Or you might be required to delete the file from your computer and then download the file again.
    The store might limit the number of times that you can restore your rights or limit the number of computers on which you can use the songs or videos that you obtain from them. Some stores do not permit you to restore media usage rights at all.
    For details, see the store's customer support or Help links.
  • If the file is a song you ripped from a CD with the Copy protect music option turned on, you might be able to restore your usage rights by playing the file. You will be prompted to connect to a Microsoft Web page that explains how to restore your rights a limited number of times.

Protected content cannot play if Windows Media Player 10 is installed on a computer that already has a beta version the Windows Media Format 11 Runtime installed

Content that is protected with media usage rights cannot be played in Windows Media Player 10 if a computer already has a beta version of the Windows Media Format 11 Runtime installed (which is installed with beta versions of Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP). In some situations, Windows Media Player 10 may quit unexpectedly when trying to play protected content and licenses for protected content might be lost.

To work around this issue, do one or more of the following, and then try to play protected content in Windows Media Player:
  • If you install Windows Media Player 10 on a computer that already has a beta version of Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP installed, you cannot use Windows Media Player 10 to play protected content until you roll back from Windows Media Player 11 to Windows Media Player 10 by doing the following:
    1. Disconnect any portable music or video devices that might be attached to your computer.
    2. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
    3. In the Category View of Control Panel, click Add or Remove Programs, and then click Remove a program.
    4. Click Windows Media Player 11, and then click Remove.
    5. In each of the two confirmation dialog boxes that appear, click OK.
    6. When the rollback process is complete (it might take several minutes), click Restart.
     Note   Do not uninstall the Windows Media Format 11 Runtime.
  • Make sure your computer is connected to the Internet and play your protected content in Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP before you roll back to Windows Media Player 10. This can help to prevent licenses for protected content from being lost.
  • Install the final released version of Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP and play protected content in Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP.

This issue should not occur if the final released version of Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP is installed on your computer. This is because Windows Media Player 10 cannot be installed if the released version of the Windows Media Format 11 Runtime is already installed (The runtime is installed with the final released version of Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP).
