Question

Why do music files that I add to iTunes stop working with Windows Media Player?

Ever since I got my iPod Shuffle it has been the only device I use to listen to music, but when I decided to listen to music directly from my computer through Windows Media Player the same music that plays through iTunes will not play through WMP.

iPod shuffle, Windows 7

Windows Media Player 12 ought to be able to play most of the same file types that iTunes can. See Getting iTunes & Windows Media Player to play nicely for tips on letting both players share a common set of media files.
