WMP is not providing any info at all for CDs I am playing or for CDs I am
trying to rip. Is anyone else experiencing this?

If I use the "Find Album Info" feature, the correct album information
appears, but then it will not transfer to my player.

I am using WMP 11 on XP Professional.

What can I try or where can I look for answers? Microsoft keeps steering me
toward paying for information.

Are you burning an audio CD or a data CD?

Oh wait, you're *ripping*. Reset your library--

and the player should be good to go after that. =\

I figured out what seemed to work for me: clearing the cache. However, this
did not work for another person who has Vista, so I am going to pass this
link along to them.

Thanks for the resource! I skimmed through it and found at least one more
thing I was wondering about!
