I cant view work on my projects and or create new projects. I even downloaded the new update and that didnt work.

Someone please help me, I was thinking to uninstall the software and then reinstall the software but will my projects all delete too?????? Please help

[anthonybaio]

Please bear in mind that it was not Roxio that broke compatibility - it was MICROSOFT with the changes to the OS kernel made by IE7 - there is NO cure unless MS decides to fix what THEY broke.

 

If you like a fast tabbed browser - go to www.mozilla.com and download Firefox - that works and is also W3C compliant (which Ie 7 is NOT)

 

WMP11 is a different problem - it has severely tightened up DRM to the extent that some files are unable to play due to 'license restrictions'.

 

HI gizomy I'am not sure if i'm posting this write. I been having trouble with dvd builder when I try to click dvd it close video wave and dvd bulider open I pick my project click to record error message comes up and said dvd builder has encoutered a problem and needs to close. I have try every thing like uninstall and repair and update and I have Ie6 could you please help

[cmdrjamz]

You can NOT 'disable' IE7 or WMP11. You HAVE to uninstall them

 

They DO break Roxio (and other programs)

 

They are NOT essential updates

 

MS caused a problem with them and realised that so they put out a patch to STOP IE7 from auto-installing

 

WMP11 was NEVER an uto-patch

 

In short - if you want EMC to work - GET RID OF BOTH OF THEM

 

OK, thanks for the info, I appreciate your input but IE 7 is only one of many browser options available and an OS can have more than one browser, firefox, aol, linux or any of the IE still available, at some point there should be a patch to correct the known issues and it has happened with past browser like IE5 and IE6. so my statement remains,. yet you are telling me that I have to remove something new inorder to keep another program operating properly, and you may have missed the fact that Photosuite Platnium 7( the stand-alone version-Not the one bundled with EMC 7) It does not operate ITS DVD BUILDER either. and its important that People should note this, WHY? Because it's Highlights the fact that the issue is Focused with the dvd builder feature in both EMC 7"which also includes Photosuite7 ;;;and the optional seperate software which Some people have, Called PHOTOSUITE 7 PLATINUM; neither one of these installed individually, or in the EMC7 bundle are able to launch and funcrion in the dvd builder mode or svcd etc..

Im sorry if it upsets people to hear this but IT IS UNACCEPTABLE to expect people to remove an Upgraded software such as Windows Media or Internet explorer, its more reasonable to upgrade your older version of a "processing software to one that keeps up with the big fishes now swimming around you, than to tell them they should turn DOWN their lights because the walls are dirty and need cleaning. -see what Im saying, and meanwhile PUSH PUSH PUSH for a patch so that the rest of us with limited incomes can continue EVOLVING with the rest of the SOFTWARE WORLD AROUND US.

im really not trying to sound like ajerk and although i probably do anyway, I want it known that People need solutions not excuses, and why cant IE7 or WMP10 or 11 be disabled? people usually have multiple Browsers and Media systems on their computers and they arent all going at the same time. I just dont buy into the whole you must roll back practice..... thanks just the same for the info, and apologies in advance for my Obvious pious-bias-perdpective. Even a Rock will roll.......................whatever that means. -cmdrjamz--

 

Hi cmdrjamz!

 

In my case, the only thing I did was uninstall IE7, restarted my computer and Roxio EMC 7.5 worked great. I did not uninstall WMP 11. I have 2 computers, an HP with Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 with Intel Pentium D and the other is Sony Vaio with Windows XP Media Center 2004 with Intel Pentium 4 HT Technology. Roxio EMC 7.5 is working on both computers that are networked. I don't think WMP 11 should be blamed for the error signature problem at all.

 

Upgrading to Roxio EMC 9 is not going to fix your problem. Just uninstall IE 7 from the Control Panel's Add & Remove Program, restart your computer and see if your problem is gone. If not try uninstalling Roxio EMC 7.5, restart your computer and reinstall it. After reinstalling it, make sure you restart your computer before doing anything with it. If it still does not work, go to the link below and get the update for Roxio EMC 7.5. Hopefully this will fix it.

 

http://www.roxio.com/enu/support/emc7/software_updates.html

 

In this website, you will see Update Your Software, Support> Easy Media Creator 7.x> Software Updates. It enumerates the versions you can update for EMC 7.5 boxed version, EMC 7 boxed version, or EMC 7 downloaded version. Just click on Download for the version that you are currently using to get the update and follow the instruction on your screen.

 

I surely hope that I am able to help you fix your problem. Please let me know.

I have not yet tried uninstalling ie7. I must note that I have a stand alone photosuite 7 platnium, w/ dvd builder, and later purchased EMC 7, and later on EMC 7.5

 

PSP 7 has dvd builder with it and allows SVCD EMC7 also has DVD builder yet expands into the dvd burning =SVCD etc.. My 7.5 EMC has never installed due to bad numbers from a copy purchased at best buy, -even after recieving new cd# from roxio it will not accept numbers, so I have tried PSP7 alone and the only thing that doesnt work is the dvd builder mode, EMC7 installed ontop of PSP7 same problem EMC7 installed alone Same issue.. There is a glitch in the DVDbuilder feature that hang up and stops functioning, I will try your suggestion an uninstall IE7 and see if it makes a difference, but I gotta tell ya, It was doing this with IE6 and again, the issue is only with dvd builder. I have had it functioning 2 times in the past wit IE7 and WMP11 all the way to the burn process even though I couldnt view my titles in the production menu and ended up with a title menu video only I will be immensely surprised if removing ie7 works, but I feel it is something thats getting overlooked here. I have not seen this from other postings but I have noticed that along with the crash notice, and send error report box, that frequently, A DR WAtson debugging message also appears and Im not sure if its indicative of a direction towards a solution. Irecently have added a Sprint treo 700wx to my system and it comes with aavenue sftwr for remote access etc,,, If I hadnt logged so many fruitless hours, at least 70 so far Id say screw it and draw my production on flash cards ha ha, or reverse engineer it using other available options... Im just not one to give up easily and dont like being told I have to wear ugly/old clothes (IE6) in order to stay in the hood, so to speak... Thanks for listening, eventually things will resolve , I Just Want It NOW!............................................-cmdrjamz-

[gi7omy]

Please listen carefully:

 

IE7 made fundamental changes to the OS kernel.

 

This has caused programs to fail, including all Roxio products up to EMC8 and is causing problems with EMC9

 

There is NO cure short of removing it.

 

Microsoft caused the problems by making it a 'critical' update.

 

It is so not 'critical' that MS eventually produced a program to STOP it being automatically installed.

[golinux]

cmdrjamz, I can't understand why are you so attached to IE 7 and WMP 11. Just because they are 'new'? Personally, I don't need or want either of them.

Hi cmdrjamz!

 

I just want you to know that all of us here who are trying to help you resolve your problem do not work with Roxio. Some of us had the same issue that you are currently experiencing right now. We have resolved ours problems by rolling back to IE 6. I didn't want to at first because I like the performance of IE 7. I decided to uninstall IE 7 because I have a project that I need to finish. I have to burn 30 DVDs before the end of February. When my project is done then I will install it again, no big deal. These suggestions that we gave you worked for us. You do not have to uninstall WMP 11. It is not the one that is causing the problem. I understand your frustrations about these software companies not giving a patch for their older versions. You can e-mail them or fight them or bitch about it but the question is "will it solve your problem?". Just think about it.

[gi7omy]

Please bear in mind that it was not Roxio that broke compatibility - it was MICROSOFT with the changes to the OS kernel made by IE7 - there is NO cure unless MS decides to fix what THEY broke.

 

If you like a fast tabbed browser - go to www.mozilla.com and download Firefox - that works and is also W3C compliant (which Ie 7 is NOT)

cmdrjamz, I can't understand why are you so attached to IE 7 and WMP 11. Just because they are 'new'? Personally, I don't need or want either of them.

 

Well it's not that Im "attached"its a matter of the whole Progressive aspect of computer programs. The operating systems continually evole, and just like nobody really uses win 3.1 or IE 5 much any more, it has been a constant adaptation of Software program leapfrog, and I am not really all that upset or determined to make something work that clearly is not yet ready. but... IE7 browser is a fine upgrade thus far and the only conflict Ive encountered is with roxio/sonic solutions, and if people are fine with rolling over, and playing dead thats their choice. It's cool if thats what they want to do. I have discovered that the squeaky wheel gets loud enough, then efforts to quiet the noise, " Patch" the flaw will be sooner in coming. So I could wonder the same on the other side of the field as to why is roxio continuing to evolve and change the features it offers when earlier versions worked just as well.

 

I did not intend to stand up on a soap-box pissin and moaning about all the wasted hours trying to get a program to work when all I really wanted was to know is if there a patch, -obviously the answer is No, not yet.. There will be,, in time, meanwhile I will use every other feature until then and Not roll back the newest browser or media player, because to me thats like living with blinders on,

The real truth of the matter is I have been on temp disability for 16 weeks and have too much free time.

there are many other programs for DVD authoring and I use those in the interim.

It's probably a bigger deal for those that exist in making a living with dvd authoring (if thats actually a reality)

 

So I apologise to any that have taken offense at my crying out loud over this. I will step Up to adobe Photoshop cs2 or cs3 when its released and hopefully, in choosing a Leading product, ill experience less OS conflicts. I have had enough wasting time over a frivolous matter. I like roxio or should say Ive become comfortable with the product interface and I am obviously expecting too much. and maybe IM the one with blinders on in moving over to adobe photoshop as "sonic solutions is also a part of their software system, I may be finding myself with the same problem. although I am optimistic it will not be an issue.

thanks again,

 

respectfully. -cmdrjamz-

With all due respect - why don't you post to the microsoft forum and ask them WHY they issued a so-called update that wrecks other applications?

 

Believe me - IE7 is NOT worth installing. Sure, it is installed in Vista and so is WMP11, but you have to remember that Vista is a totally different OS with a different kernel.

 

XP is NOT Vista - the kernel is different and IE7 changed that - that caused programs to fail (and not just Roxio ones). Google round and you will see a lot of complaints regarding IE7 (well if IE7 will open the websites which it won't do in quite a few cases).

 

While you are at it, also ask why they produced a browser that does not adhere to the standards of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Microsoft (despite what you may think) did NOT invent the web - in fact it's not even an American idea and for them to alter standards is pure arrogance.

 

Just as a fyi - the web was invented by Tim Berners-Lee in CERN (now whether he was in France or Switzerland depends whereabouts in the tunnel his office was)

[golinux]

Well it's not that Im "attached"its a matter of the whole Progressive aspect of computer programs.

I guess I'm just not all that 'progressive' when it comes to techo-gadgets. For a while I was keeping up on the latest in standards compliant web design and all the latest coding tricks but I found it exhausting and burned out. I just want my computer to do the things that I need. I don't want to have to keep buying new stuff and learning how to use it. You know . . . if it works, don't fix it.

 

Oh and did I mention that my car (a three cylinder, 35+ MPG model) is 17 years old, in great shape and gets me everywhere I want. Why would I need a new one?

[Guest ml]

I'm sorry you've been on temp disability for 16 weeks. You must be climbing the walls.

 

Please don't count on a patch because version 9 is out and Roxio is probably working on version 10 ( I don't work for them, so I don't know for sure.)

 

You've been lucky if IE 7 doesn't 'break' any of your other programs. I've heard from friends how various programs on their computers stopped functioning correctly when they installed IE 7.

[ogdens]

Hello all, unfortunately, I am having the same troubles with dvd builder and I comforted at least to see this is not an isolated problem only im having. I have wasted literally a week of repeated attempts to uninstall, reinstall, update, experiment with various mpeg settings etc. does anybody know for a fact that IE7 or WIN Media 11 is to blame.? has anybody tried simply disabling these programs rather than roll back to previous versions. because I think it would make more sense than add to the anguish of time it takes to reassemble the menu bars and reload media player etc ....I just hope somebody has an answer. because I have wasted so much time with this issue. additionally, it doesnt sound good to tell current users that the only solution is to upgrade to EMC 9 as a solution, unless of course money is not an issue for you..!!? come on.

Im gonna check back on this post in a couple hours and hopefully somebody can add some beneficial knowledge to this dilemma...... im running xp home pent IV 512 mb ram 1.5 ghz. and store programs on seperate HD with media and images on a dedicated xtrnal HD only windows programs on the laptop and necessary shortcuts to programs. not that this should adversly effect things but it does save on SOME wear and tear of defrag utilitys when its all on one. {hands clasped firmly in prayer to the almighty IC god in the motherboard heaven above} --cmdrjamz--

definitely climbing the walls , and unfortunately it looks like more surgery is in the works so Ill probably be getting pretty fat before im healed enough to get back at it.

 

I went out and bought photoshop element 5.0 today and will bury myself in that for awhile and decide if I like it enough to go for the whole pkg, onr maybe just add the rest of the software pkg in steps. it seems to be the preferred platform by many people even though the cost is Way up there--., since elements comes with vcd and svcd authoring I should be occupied enough to forget about My roxio sorrows. I was really getting comfortable and feeling creative with storyboard. It's a shame that there havent been enough squeaky wheels to get the fix coming faster....

Uninstall the program, run the MS Cleaner Utility and remove any Roxio or Sonic entries and try re-installing again.

 

Also, check that you have thje latest drivers from you video card maker and the latest DirectX (9.0c, February release) from Microsoft (this is not included with updates so it has to be downloaded separately)

 

Let us know how that works and if there are still problems, list your system specs (similar to the ones in my signature), especially the graphics and CPU ones

Maybe you need to take some deep breaths and cut back on your pain meds (and or caffeine).

 

It would have been better if you had started a thread of your own rather than hijacking an existing one and if you would stay on the subject rather than spinning off into tirade after tirade.

 

Also, you should remove you email from your previous post. It will be harvested by the bots and end up on every spam list out there.

 

As ml suggested, make sure your computer meets the minimum requirements for running the software. You're beating a dead horse trying to get a patch from Roxio for V.7.

 

Wishing you the best . . .

Have allowed your PC to upgrade to IE7?

 

You can run Repair from Add/Remove Programs.

Hi,

I am having a similar problem with trying to create a dvd. I haven't used the dvd creater software in the past 6 monts and now it wont work. If I try to add a tilte, nothing shows up in the menu or the production areas but the bar that shows how much space is left to fit on a dvd get updated. Eventually the program either hangs up or I get an error message that only says there was an error in the program.

James,

Are you saying the IE7 will cause problems with this program?

Thanks,

Matt
