Media Player Copying

B

Bob & Ann

When I insert a music CD into drive D, Media Player opens up and starts
copying immediately. All I want to do is listen to it.
How can I fix this? Is there a setting somewhere?

Thanks,
BA

Open Windows Media Player,Select tools > options > copy
music and uncheck the "copy cd when inserted" box.This
should do it.

Go to Tools, go to Options..., Click Copy Music Tab,
unselect box that says "copy cd when inserted".

OK,Try this.Open up my computer.Right click on the cd rom
drive and select properties.Select the tab that says
autoplay and select music cd in the box.After that select
an action to perform when the cd is inserted.I always
check prompt me each time to choose an action (that's just
my personal preference).Hope this helps.

You already did.This is the MVP community newsgroup.I'm
just not one of them.They'll usually specify that they are
an MVP when they reply to your post.I come here to read
others posts,most times someone has already had the
problems that are affecting you.This is a great place to
learn! Go thru and read the posts most times they will
help you in some way.

Hi. Hold down the left shft key and insert your cd. When you hear it spin,
go to My computer and go town to your cd drive. Right click on it and click
on properties. Go to auto play and choose the content and chose the action.
Click ok and it should work. Good luck.
