  • I cant rip music using windows media player!?

    Im using the most recent version of WMP and trying to rip recent cds.

    The error message I get is 'One or more tracks could not be ripped at this time' with an option to use web help. When I click it, it goes on about codecs which I know nothing about. I'm not totally dumb when it comes to computers but this is frustrating me!

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

  • Call Of Duty question hardened and normal edition?

    I have pre-ordered the hardened edition from my local Game store which as I am guessing you know opens tonight at midnight. However I am unable to pick it up until tomorrow morning. My brother who ordered his off a website has had his delivered this afternoon and has lent it me as he wont be using it until later on tonight. My question is, will my hardened edition game still work fine with all the maps still being free? Its my first hardened edition so im not sure how it works ie does it read it off the disc, or do i get a code to redeem?

    Thanks

  • Anyone an expert on iTunes?

    I need help with my iTunes! Im using the 10.1.1 version and I cant get new songs on my iPhone. I used to be able to click and drag them into a playlist from a file in my laptop, but now I cant. It just has the black circle with a line through it whenever i try. Im not doing anything different than before so I dont understand why it isnt working. I also cant delete or edit playlists using iTunes on my laptop but I can on my iPhone. However if I do delete or edit them on my iPhone, when i plug it into iTunes it just puts them back to how it was. My memory is far from full.

    I have always been a windows media player user so my knowledge on iTunes isnt great!

    Thanks in anticipation, 10 points to the first person enabling me to get back to normal!

  • how do I connect my xbox360 and tv to my surround sound?

    the TV I am using is http://www.electrical-deals.co.uk/products/lg-42lh...

    The surround sound i am using is http://www.google.co.uk/products/catalog?rlz=1T4HP...

    both are LG.

    I have 2 HDMI Cables, an optical audio cable and two male ended black cables.

    Can anyone tell me how to hook up the TV to surround sound and also my xbox360?

    I can get surround sound using the DVD player and the sound works fine through the TV with the xbox and the tv itself, it just doesnt use surround sound

    sorry if its confusing, i have confused myself lol thanks

  • My cat did something strange today?

    My cat is just over one year old and he's starting to display strange behaviour. Things like running around the house and acting all hyper. He is a happy cat, he gets lots of cuddles when he wants them and is fed enough. But then today he went outside after seeing another cat (not sure if it was male or female) and ran after it. The other cat ran off out the gate and my cat just sat at the hole in the gate he made and made all his fur (even on his tail) go all puffed up and sat there yowling (i actually thought he had been hurt he was that loud lol)

    the only thing I can think of is maybe he was either trying to mate if it was female, or warning them off?

    He has been neutered if that helps?

    Thanks

  • Work issues about a promotion?

    Hi recently I had to take two weeks off unpaid from my work (not work or illness related) and when I came back, I found that someone had been made deputy manager which is the position I showed I was interested in about six months back. I was given an interview as well as a few other people too, and didnt get the job (no-one did as the owner of the workplace decided to be it themselves and the person who now has the job did not go for an interview). No interviews were taken place in this most recent deputy manager appointment, and neither was I informed of any position being available. I was able to be in contact for the two weeks and this was confirmed as i was phoned three times by my employer. Do i have a leg to stand on if i make a complaint? i want to know if i was even considered and why if i was considered did i not get the job so i will be asking this anyway. i know this might seem complicated but does anyone know anything?

  • Trading in an xbox360 game tomorrow....?

    hi folks,

    tomorrow im trading wheelman cos its utter cr@p. because ive only had it for 5 days i can trade it back in at my local gamestore for the price i purchased it for (£39.99). So id like some ideas on games, as i get to the store and have no idea. im not into COD games, but i do like the james bond QOS game. I dont mind racing games but i already have one and i hardly play that so i dont really want another. ive already had GTA IV and Saints Row 2 tho i was thinking of getting it again if its cheap enough. I looked at the demo for viva pinata and it really doesnt not appeal to me!had fifa09, found it a little repetitive and not many of my friends had it either. i like the dynasty warriors games and am waiting for DW6 Empires to come out in july. Street Fighter IV looks ok but is there anything to do on the game apart from fight? I have Xbox live if that makes any decisions easier!

    Thanks for reading, sorry to give so much info but it gives a better picture!
