Re: share not working



I've got error 1075 dependency doesn't exist or has been marked for
deletion. I also was trying to delete the files in DRM. I don't have a DRM
folder

When i go to the bottom of services.msc, i see windows media player
network
sharing-service. My starttype is automatic and my status is stop. I have
done
everything that you said but when i go back to services.msc i can not
start
windows media player network sharing-service. I get "Error 1068: The
dependency service or group failed to start."

I have been looking futher up in the list of services.msc and saw the
following which might have something to do with it:

Net.Tcp port sharing service
network DDE
network DDE DSDM
SSDP discovery-service
routing and remote access

They are all off. Is this the same with you? Can you check for me please?

It worked after I did this:

"Shut off the 360. Go to start, run, then type services.msc. When
that
pops up go to the bottom and pick windows media network sharing and
stop
that. Close the window. Go to my computer then go to tools at the
top and
folder options. From there hit the view tab and select the show
hidden files
and folders and about 2 spaces under that is something about hiding
system
files. Un-check both of these. When you click the second one it
will ask
you if you are sure and say yes. Then get out of that and go to c
drive,
docs and settings, all users, then under that there should be the DRM
folder.
In that folder delete everything. After that go back to the tools
folder
options view thing and put back the two checks that you took off. Go
back to
servies.msc and start back up the windows media sharing thing. Then
turn
back on your 360 and it should work."

When I was done with that, there was a large white box with the xbox 360
icon under the "Share My Media" check box. It had to do with the 'hidden'
DRM
folder being deleted. After that it was fine

Hi ackthpt,

How did you get your Share My Media" box fixed, because it still isn't
working for me. I don't have the settings button

I was able to get the "Share My Media" box fixed but my computer
hasn't
recognized the 360 yet. I was able to get windows media sharing
working again
under "services". I followed this:

"Shut off the 360. Go to start, run, then type services.msc. When
that
pops up go to the bottom and pick windows media network sharing and
stop
that. Close the window. Go to my computer then go to tools at the

back to
servies.msc and start back up the windows media sharing thing. Then
turn

NOTE: It is your system and your responsibility for using this
information.
Be careful with what you do if you are unfamiliar with these
instructions.

See if any of you are having this problem too.
Pull up Services. Goto Start>>>Run>>>type "services.msc"
Scroll down to Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service.
Under Status, there is nothing listed. Under Startup Type, "Manual"
is listed.
Right click Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service>>>click
Start.
I get "Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to
start."
I can't find too much on this, see if any of you can. There is 1
post in the
newsgroups but no reply. This is probably tied into the problem
with the
Share My Media box just hanging there.

Yep, Exactly the same here.

Warning! Do not try to contact Microsoft Helpline, they will not
have a clue
what you are talking about, I spent 45 mins trying to explain
what the
problem was.............

Neil,
Speaking for me I don't have Windows Live Onecare. I'm using
Windows firewall.

The ports are configured correctly. Even if they weren't it
should still let
me check the box, I mean I can't even check the box to "share
my media" with
the 360 or any devices. It just hangs there for 20-30 seconds
and nothing. I
have to cancel to even get out of it. The problem lies with
the media player
11, not the 360. The 360 dosen't pick up my computer because
the "file
sharing hasn't been allowed" and I can't check it off.

What about other firewalls - Zone Alarm ? Norton ? Anything
else ?

There's a load more info on the XBox site about connection

and I too am having this same exact problem... i'm also
wireless... perhaps
that is something to do with it? its extremely frustrating
because there is
no error code or anything... it just sits there for a bit
and nothing
happens... eventually you must hit Cancel since that's the
only option that
does anything...

any assistance would be greatly appreciated...

Windows Media Connect (versions 1.0 & 2.0) and it still
