SeaMonkey and Winamp
Windows XP SP3 SeaMonkey 2.11 Winamp 5.6.3 When I have Winamp installed in [C:\Program Files\Winamp\], I have no trouble launching it and playing a streaming broadcast from a link on a Web page. When I have Winamp installed in its own [C:\Winamp\], I get an error popup for .m3u and .pl links; but it still works okay for .pls links. For the link http://kuscstream.org/mp3/kusc128.m3u, the error popup says: C:\DOCUME~\User\LOCALS~1\Temp\kusc128.m3u could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences. I do not see any reference to .mu3 or .pl files in Helper Applications. Windows file associations -- including m3u and pl -- all correctly point to [C:\Winamp\winamp.exe]. All Windows registry values also point to the correct path to winamp.exe. How can I fix this? For a test, go to http://www.rossde.com/music.html. Near the bottom of the page, the red speaker icons are links to streaming broadcasts. KUSC and KING use .m3u; WQED uses .pl. To repeat, testing for this problem requires that Winamp be installed in a path that is NOT [C:\Program Files\Winamp\]. -- David E. Ross http://www.rossde.com/.

Netscape in Windows XP Registry
While trying to solve another problem, I noticed a number of Windows XP registry keys and values for Netscape. I have SeaMonkey and Thunderbird installed, but I no longer have any version of Netscape. Can these registry entries be safely deleted? NOTE WELL: Followups set to mozilla.support.seamonkey. -- David E. Ross http://www.rossde.com/.

Mail file incompatibility betwee 2.7.7 and 10
My mail files began life in Netscape. I have had as many as twenty versions of SM on the HDD at one time, many profiles, and all pointing to the same mail files. I have also pointed TB to those files. I have not used TB for at least a year. I am running Win SM at 10 and 11, But I have had reason to go back to 2.7.2, and if I do, the mail files have problems. I go to a folder and open a message and the body is not that of the message that is highlighted. If I scroll the highlight, the body does not change. Also, sometimes msf files/folders are created for directories/folders. After the files have been used in 10 or 11, I seem to be able to use them in 2.7.2 by deleting the msf -index?- files. There is no issue going from 2.7.2 to 10. Anyone understand what changed, and if it is by design.

If these registry entries are not affecting you in any shape or form, then I would just leave them alone. However, if you really want to tidy up the registry then I suggest use CCleaner (Slim) so that you have a second opinion of a software. CCleaner is pretty good to clean all the temp files and all that. It can also clear redundant entries in Windows Registry. However, it is often said that Windows Registry does not require compacting or cleansed so it is up to you. I used to clean the registry in Windows XP but now I have been promoted to Windows 7 so I haven't done it for nearly 4 months!!! -- Good Guy Website: http://mytaxsite.co.uk Website: http://html-css.co.uk Forums: http://mytaxsite.boardhost.com Email: http://mytaxsite.co.uk/contact-us ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Windows file associations -- including m3u and pl -- all correctly point to [C:\Winamp\winamp.exe]. All Windows registry values also point to the correct path to winamp.exe. How can I fix this? I've seen this occasionally with various applications, nothing peculiar to WinAmp. If SeaMonkey lists no helper app, you can resolve this by giving it the guidance it needs. It's basically saying, I don't know which app to launch to view this file. Most commonly this happens when you upgrade your app or install a competing one and SM loses track of where to look. You probably do have an M3U association (click Content Type at top to alphabetize the list). Click and update the action, you should be fine. You may have to change it to something you don't want and then change it back; in that case, Always ask is a good choice. Okay. I was able to use your advice and fix SeaMonkey for .mu3 links. This required using LiveHTTPHeaders to see what MIME type was sent by the link (audio/x-mpegurl) and then updating the Helper Application entry for that MIME type as you indicated. Thanks. The only .pl link that I was using http://www.wqed.org/cgi-bin/fm/billboard_rotate.pl seems defunct. KQED now seems to broadcast only to Flash. This requires that I keep a browser window open without changing profiles, a PITA. Thus, I cannot tell if your advice would work for MIME type video/x-ms-asf when the only related Helper Application is video/x-ms-asf-plugin. Is there a way to add new MIME types to Helper Applications? Does this help? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Register_protocol It was not the protocol, which is HTTP. It was the MIME type that was the problem. I know how to add new file types in Windows, but I don't know how to add new MIME types to Helper Applications in SeaMonkey. Fortunately, my problem with .m3u file types is now resolved. These use the audio/x-mpegurl MIME type. I merely changed the entry in Helper Applications for that MIME type to Always ask and the changed it back to Winamp. My problem with the .pl file type will require some action by WQED (incorrectly given in my earlier reply as KQED). WQED now apparently streams only to Flash. I see what you mean about WQED. I used to be able to copy the link, and open the stream in my VLC player. Now I have the choice of WQED-FM 89.3 Live Stream, or Pittsburgh Concert Channel. Both open a small new browser window, which I can minimize, but have to keep the browser open if I want to listen. Grrr! At least the Pittsburgh Jazz Channel still works right. -- Fedora 17 | GNOME 3.4.2 | Thunderbird Earlybird ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Other than that: Dave can you copy paste your troubleshooting information to a pastebin? o Help|Troubleshooting Information|Copy all to clipboard o Open: http://pastebin.com/ and paste your clipboard into the 'New Paste' box. (you can do this simply by right clicking in the box and click 'Paste'). Scroll down to the bottom of the web page and click 'Submit'. (If you get a spam warning, just enter the Captcha click submit). Then send us the URL that appears in your URL address box. Example: http://pastebin.com/SirtFHVR [that is a copy paste of your original post w/headers] This way others can see your troubleshooting information, including any addons and extensions, to try to help. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
