You can either try to fix the assosiations in media player, its in the options some where,
or, you could do a hard rest. this will remove all the data and any programs you have installed, so make sure you have a recent sync and a backup.

Hi I recently installed Pocket DIVX player. Didn't like it so uninstalled it. Now Windows media Player 10 wont play my videos I recorded using XDA video recorder or mp3's unless I go through the Media Player library. When I try and play through file explorer I get the message "xxxx....cannot be opened Either it has not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file" This means I cannot have mp3 ringtones or play videos/music using file explore. Can anybody help?
anyone out there who can help?
hard reset, one of the problems of installing dodgy software...
try reinstalling the original application, then have all the default settings and file extension associations reassigned back to WMP10, then uninstall.
can try using tcpmp if that may provide an alternative.
never be afraid to hard reset, it only takes a while the first few times, and you get into a routine for it....
Maybe it's just a problem with file association? Not sure. Probably search the registry to see what program opens the MP3 and change it back to WM10
I'm probably wrong, but give it a shot
At the moment there is no programme associated with opening mp3's or the avi videos. Excuse my naivety but how do I do a hard reset? And what did you mean be re-install original application? Do you mean the Pocket Divx programme again? Thanks for your help by the way!

How do I search the registry?
To hard reset, select CLEAR STORAGE in the programs folder and then enter 1234. This will erase EVERYTHING saved on the phone and will return it to how it was when you first bught it, i think.
Regarding registry, use a registry editor. I use the one of Resco which comes with Resco File Explorer. There is a free one called TRE just look for it thru google.
Don't re-intall the Divx player, maybe re-install alll the other programs you installed in the first place when you bought it
Ok cheers I think the reset will be a last resort. All the programmes like WMP10 were pre installed on the phone so I dont have the disc and you can't seem to download WMP10 4pocket pc on the net. I think it's a case of trying to associate mp3's avi's etc with WMP10 as it seems to play wmv files no problem but I've tried everything to no avail What I can't understand is why mp3's and avi's can play on WMP10 by using the library and not through file explorer :? Once again thanks for your suggestions
the library and application itself understands that it can run the mp3 etc
however windows not wmp10 has associated the file extension ".mp3" to another application which no longer exists.
I have attached my file association for mp3 and avi from my registry. import it if you understand and acknowledge the risks with registry editing and I accept no responsibility AT ALL.
Hi mate. Thanks for your help. You were correct, in the registry mp3 and avi are were assigned to Pocket Divx I imported your 2registry edits using the registry editor TRE and avi and mp3 appear to be assigned to WMP but still no luck in playing them through file explorer. Any ideas on what to do next.
After a bit of browsing I've installed The Core Pocket Media Player (TCPMP) which seems to play everything no problem and has an option to associate files rather than force it upon you like Divx did. Thanks for all your help but i've given up on WMP10 if you come up with an answer to my problem please feel free to let me know
under hkey local machine there are settings for wmplayer default extensions, perhaps this has also been changed. I have these attached for you to compare.
I also found more under multimedia extensions for microsoft which could also have been changed. the only other location where references mp3 came up related to arcsoft multimedia, so after this you should also test this area to ensure that mms hasn't been changed.
see how you go, but you may never be able to fully undo the effects of dodgy software and incorrect installations.
let me know if you need further keys. note, I also use tcpmp for my videos due to full screen and have allowed this to superscede some of my own wmp10 settings.
cheers
I think we were writing simultaneously so thought I would write again to see if you are interested in trying the above.
if you associated them to tcpmp, you may need to run the previous edits again to reassociate.
your call leave it with you
I will give it a try but tcpmp seems pretty good so far so I may leave it but thanks for your help mate!
been using the player for some time now listening to music on the way to work. just today when playing from the start of my playlist there were little pause all the way through each song, so bad that i had to turn it of.
does anyone know whats causing this, could it be a virus or something as am always tranfering songs to and from, or will the card need re formating if needs be.
Too many apps running at once?
Have you tried doing a soft reset?
I didn't think anyone used Media player anymore, try:
http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/download
Much better player, loadsa codecs for all types of movies too.
WHy dont you use TCPMP? It's way better than WMP... If it still has the same problem with TCPMP then something might be wrong with the unit itself..
OK, here's the backround info. My wife uses her T-Mobile MDA to log onto her jobs email server via EDGE. Her voice mails are automatically sent to her email, and she's been able to check her email on her MDA and be able to play them in the media player. All of a sudden, she says she's now getting an error message saying that a component is missing (I don't have the phone with me now). So, she calls me and asks me what I did to her phone. I have no idea what would cause this to stop working. Can someone help me brain storm? I know I should have the phone with me to describe exactly what the message is but I'm not able to get it from her at the moment. Just trying to think of some possible reasons.
Her phone is using the original T-Mobile USA ROM, we just added the following programs recently: 1) NoteM (which didn't work properly) 2) TodayAgenda 3) Smartbutton 4) Oxios Hibernate.
I also removed two programs: some T-Mobile Hot Spot manager (never uses wifi) and the other, I can't remember what it was. It was sofware that's been on the phone since we bought it new but I didn't think she needed it. I can't remember what it is for the life of me.
So, if someone has a suggestion, please let me know. Also, is there a list of all programs that came stock on the MDA?
OK. This is the error message I get when I try to download the WAV file for the voice mail: "The file 'VOICEATT' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file."
It let's me download the file now but when I try to play it, I get the message above. Also, the file just has a generic white piece of paper look to it with the MS icon in the middle. She says this was working fine before, it just stoped working this week. BTW, I also added .NET Framework to her device last week as well. Added this because I couldn't get Smart button to work without it. She said it used to open in the Media player, no problems. Any ideas what might be causing this? Looks like the file is not recognized anymore.
Also, I just downloaded the same file to my Artemis and it shows up as a windows wave file icon. No problems playing it on my desktop or my phone. But the MDA will not recognize the file no matter what. What's even more strange is that I can play the file with MS Notes? It still has the same generic icon, but I can play the files in Notes, but not in WMP. What could have caused WMP to stop recognizing wave files? I can still play her MP3 on her storage card in WMP though.
Also, I added a Security Prompt Bug Fix to turn off the security. Before I added this, it wouldn't even let me download the file. Now it downloads but I just can't play it.

we just went to avaya voip at work and now get VMs in our email as well. i had the same issue, and couldnt figure out why WMP couldnt play WAV files... doesnt make sense. but anyways i installed TCMP (http://www.freewareppc.com/multimedia/tcpmp.shtml) and set it to be the default player for everything... when opening up wav files it still says unsupported codec. what the hell can it play if it can't play wav files? i ended up going to a different WM6 build where WMP would work (tested it just now). so the only thing i can suggest is finding a CAB for WMP and installing again or play around with the ten million WM6 builds...

I downloaded Conduits Meda Player and it plays the files but it wont automatically play the files when you click on them. I could not find a setting that would make it automatically open and play the file - it would just open the program. Then you had to open the folder where the file was stored. Since I also discovered that the Notes program would play the WAV files, I just uninstalled the Conduits prog, and now I'm having my wife just use notes instead. It's a little cumbersome, but until I can find a media player that can open automatically and play the darn files, may as well use Notes.

Since audio is basically all you need, try this great little app. This is the updated version, and has a settings option to play at open.
Enjoy!

By the way TCPMP does have a setting to "play at open"
In TCPMP go to Options>settings
[pict1]
Select page>player check box at play at open. Tap OK [pict2]
I thought I fixed this by asking in previous post but obviously not.. NO MATTER HOW I ADD MUSIC to my SD card, Touch Flo Music app gives Audio Manager_eng.exe error!! Hard Reset, Soft Reset, Delete Audiomanager file, editing/resetting registry, using drag and drop, using Media Monkey..ALL no luck.
How and what do you guys do to play music via your SD card on Touch Flo music app...step by step guide most appreciated - what do I delet, what do I name folders etc...Merry Xmas
have you tried syncronising using windows media player? and if the media is on the card, you should be able to select the albums using options in the tf3d media player, if it crashes and you havent done anything that voids your warranty, try HTC support. because if a hard reset doesnt fix the problem its a problem in your rom,
what also possibly could cause it to crash is if you try to play an unsupported media file,
hope to have given you some new information or suggestions!

This is the ssimple answer.
You might want to reinstall Audio manager using a new installation file. Yours could have quite possibly become corrupt. Do a search and find an original CAB on here. I'm sure I saw it on somewhere here. Otherwise...send your phone in for the support guys to take a look. Might be worth a shot.
You were right! Now I realize it does not seem to support m4a files...removed them, still no luck...after 2 hours I found a rogue m4a file in my library...Unbelievable! I thought it would just ignore the file type rather than corrupt all??
Thank you anyway.

Nope this is not correct, all of my music (hundreds of songs) in my SD are in m4a format (AAC encoded within iTunes), they all play perfectly work perfectly, no problem whatsoever, even the artist/song/album info and cover art is working fine from m4a.
Something else is the problem here.
I just wanted to prevent missinformation, the blackstone DOES play m4a (AAC) without any problems (Main Memory or SD doesn't make a difference...)

Well, MOST of my music is in M4A files; I originally converted all my CD collection to M4A for my old Sony Walkman phone because the AAC-type format seemed to give better sound quality for a given file size compared to MP3.
And so far, it's only been one rogue file that has given me problems on the HD, although I noticed that it does tend to mess up the playing order.
Maybe there's something different in the codecs that you are using or something. I seem to recall that I used Nero to encode mine.
I'm confused then..would the fact that I use a Mac be the issue - Itunes purchases - DRM Free ( though I use Bootcamp to do all music transfers etc..).
ok, i have been using the Mixhdj recently on the hd2 over the last couple of days testing the mp3's that came preinstalled with mobile device
today i have deleted most of the original mp3's and transfered some of my mp3's onto the storage card using WMDC. now every time i open the app and as i click the load mp3 (this usually lists all the mp3 on the mobile) i get this error "a problem has occurred with mixhdj.exe" AHHHH
i get this message a few times and after that every time i click load mp3 it just exits the program..i have un & inistalled the app, removed MY mp3 but i still get the same problem..why is this happening ?
i love the HD2 but it is very worrying when something goes wrong and this is not the first time its happened . i dont wanna hard reset yet but does anyone have any solutions, im willing to try a few things out.
on researching this error, apparenlty there is particular way to transfer mp3's onto the device with the music tab on display and this prevents touchflo from freezing. well im on a uk tmob stock rom 1.72.x.x so im not sure if this is an old bug thats been rectified? also when transferring mp3 some of mine do not contain images, anf might have special characters& punctuation does this affects the music function and be the root of the cause??
thanks for readinghope it makes sense & hope you can help
any problems accessing those mp3s with the music player?
have you tried removing the dj app and the reinstalling it?
yes, i can play the mp3's via the music player and tried to reinstall app.
why did this error occur when i transferred my mp3's to the device?
