music burner problem

May 19, 2008

i currently use musicmatch to burn my cd's. never had a problem before until

i ininstalled jave, which i did reinstall it, and i uninstalled outlook

express which i know is for mail. i currently installed mozilla firefox

because my explorer freezes up on me all the time. now for some reason when

i go to burn a cd, it goes thru all the motion and when i play the disc there

is nothing on it. does anyone know what i can do to fix this? or what i

might have done to cause this??

Re: music burner problem

I use MusicMatch Plus, but only to play mp3's. I have never burned a CD

with it. I prefer to use either Nero or Roxio. But MusicMatch has been

sold to Yahoo and perhaps there is some conflict there. Every time I

start MM up, I get an annoying Yahoo message that says *switch now* over

to Yahoo. But that is obviously only for downloading pay mp3's and or

listening to radio, etc.

So.....do you not have Windows Media Player on your computer?? You can

burn CD's with that as well.

I happen to use Firefox as well but you CANNOT remove Outlook Express

because it is part and parcel of Internet Explorer, which is why it is

not working properly. I think you have made a rather bizarre mess out

of your computer!!

Oh well, Mike M will be along if he still has any hair or patience left,

grin. He may be able to tell you how to fix it. I have some things up

my sleeve, but until you get your MS IE and OE mess sorted out, not

about to suggest anything.

Just out of curiosity, why did you remove Java and OE??

Re: music burner problem

How did you uninstall Outlook Express? This is an integral part of Win Me

and cannot be uninstalled. I cannot help but given your multitude of

problems wonder what damage you might have done to your system. Please

post full details of what programs you have installed, uninstalled and

updated, since your system last preformed correctly.

Re: music burner problem

Re: music burner problem

Outlook?? or Outlook Express. They are two different things. So which

is it??

And there is NO Outlook/Outlook Express in Control Panel. Come back

when you get your story straight. This is way too confusing!!

Re: music burner problem

You need to provide far more information about what you are trying to do,

what you have done and what you are seeing including the full text of all

error messages.

Incidentally my apologies for my comment about Outlook Express. I forgot

that in Win Me that uninstalling Outlook Express is an option (it is not

in XP) and indeed can be uninstalled by unchecking the Outlook Express

checkbox found at Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Windows Setup.

Re: music burner problem

there was one that was in the add/remove programs part of the control panel

heather. i know that outlook express is for mail. so if that was the one

that would have been there, then thats the one that i would have uninstalled.

Re: music burner problem

thank you mike. it seems that u do indeed know far more than "others" i am

not getting any type of error messages, this is the problem. it seems that

once i uninstalled the jave, and the outlook express my pc has been acting

funny. such as with the music burner situation. so i thought well maybe its

because i uninstalled the java, so i went to java.com and reinstalled java,

and still the burner will go thru all the motions and will say disc burn

successfull after the burn, then when i try to play it it is blank. i even

uninstalled and reinstalled musicmatch thinking that it might have been them,

but its still the same. i did install mozilla firefox because on some

websites my internet explorer freezes up, but it seems like all of a sudden

things are not working properly after i did the uninstall. and outlook

express i would think should b irrelevant to all of this because it is used

for mail. does this help some or is it getting more confusing for u..im

sorry for all the confusion. but i have no error messages thats why i havent

told u of any

Re: music burner problem

You say you get no error messages so what EXACTLY happens when you attempt

to create a checkpoint? Please describe exactly what happens at each step

including how you determine that you are unable to create a checkpoint.

For the moment forget about Java, this has NOTHING whatsoever to do with

system restore.

Installing Mozilla should not have caused the problems you mention.

Re: music burner problem

OK, Mike sorted that one out from this end. The problem is that other

than one or two people, we all are using XP. Mike has both. And

Outlook is also a *mail program* which is why you were confusing me. I

have it on this computer but don't use it.

Is it possible that either your CD drive or Musicmatch program have gone

belly up? Mere coincidence, but a distinct possibility.

Listen to what Mike has to say and do try and describe what you are

seeing by way of error messages, etc.

Re: music burner problem

Joan,

Confusing yes but I was responding to serena's comment "i am not getting

any type of error messages" and expanding that to include none when using

system restore. We'll just have to wait and see if she returns. I hope

she does, and then we will hopefully get system restore working and then

move on from there. I'd prefer to have the SR lifeline working before

digging further.

Cheers (K getting any sleep?)

Re: music burner problem

OK I only mentioned it because her post underneath is dealing with System

Restore and this one was about her music burner problems so I thought

perhaps you'd sent it to the wrong thread <g>

As for Kelly I don't think she got much last night as he was apparently

awake for most of it <g> they came over today for a while so I got the

chance to actually hold him and got copies of all the photos she had on her

camera put on here <g>
