Re: WMP won't play on 10.4

Upgrade install is the problem.
I've had some similar issues on my Powerbook with Tiger as well. I  
did an Archive and Install and not an upgrade. I however have not  
tried reinstalling Windows media yet.

Re: WMP won't play on 10.4

2005-05-15 Thread Andrew
Well, clean install is always a solution.  Upgrades are always trouble,
always were, always will be.  Doesn't matter if you are going from Windows
98 to Windows XP or from Panther to Tiger, taking a new OS and writing its
files directly on top of an older OS is just asking for trouble.  Yeah, most
things will work, but it will always be a mess under the hood.

Sorry, that's just the way it is.

Regardless of what caused the problem, it makes no sense to me that  
deleting the application and Preferences, followed by a reinstall  
would do the trick. However, I'm not the only one reporting that this

Every upgrade install is different, depending on what is on the computer
before you upgrade.  That is one reason why upgrades are so unpredictable
and trouble-prone.

Yes, Laurent. I have thrashed preferences and when I tried to  
reinstall the window says 'not necessary' or something similar, as  
WMP is already installed. Now I have thrashed everything WMP and  
downloaded same from the net and installed it. When I now want to

Have you checked the console.log in the Console application? Any message
related to it when you try to launch it?

If nothing works, you could still try to trash the current version you have
and then reinstall.
