Windows 7 WMP12 Music Stores

[Nevyn]

Hello.

I'm trying to access music stores via WMP 12 and it seems to connect to the internett just fine, but on the page where a list of the music stores are supposed to show nothing shows up. There is heading that i think says "categories" that appears for a split second before disapering.

All im left with on the screen is this (translated from Norwegian):

"Choice of online stores"

"Simple access to loads of music. Access to the worlds largest collection of music with one click. [...] Choose amongst the music- & videostores below [...]" etc. But nothing shows below. It's just a blank, white page with nothing on it.

Any & all suggest on how to resolve this problem is very welcome.

It seems like you are experiencing an issue with Windows Media Player 12 not displaying the list of music stores properly when you try to access them. This could be due to various reasons such as network issues, compatibility problems, or errors in the application. To troubleshoot and resolve this problem, you can try the following steps: 1. Check Internet Connection: - Ensure that your internet connection is stable and working properly. A weak or intermittent connection can prevent the music stores from loading. 2. Clear Windows Media Player Cache: - Corrupted cache files can cause issues with loading content. Clearing the cache in Windows Media Player might help. Here's how: - Open Windows Media Player. - Press "CTRL + M" to open the menu bar if it's not visible. - Go to "Tools" > "Options" > "Privacy" tab. - Click on "Clear History" and "Clear Caches" buttons. - Restart Windows Media Player and check if the issue is resolved. 3. Update Windows Media Player: - Make sure you have the latest updates for Windows Media Player. You can check for updates by: - Pressing the "Windows key + I" to open Settings. - Go to "Update & Security" > "Windows Update" > "Check for updates". 4. Run Windows Media Player Troubleshooter: - Windows has built-in troubleshooters that can automatically fix common problems. You can run the Windows Media Player troubleshooter by: - Pressing the "Windows key + I" to open Settings. - Go to "Update & Security" > "Troubleshoot" > "Windows Media Player" > "Run the troubleshooter". 5. Check Firewall and Security Settings: - Make sure that Windows Media Player is allowed through your firewall and antivirus programs. Sometimes, security software can block certain features of applications. 6. Reconfigure Media Player: - You can try reconfiguring Windows Media Player by: - Opening Windows Media Player. - Going to "Organize" > "Options" > "Restore all defaults". Try these steps and see if they help in resolving the issue with accessing music stores through Windows Media Player 12.
