Hi everyone.

I need to get a copy of windows media player 11 or zune, windows media connect. Is there a workaround that I use to get this to work. It says that these are the only programs I can use.

thanks in advance..

vmware and install xp, run it from inside linux.
Don't think there's another solution.

Crossover Office will run Media Player 6.4 (which I know is a bit old!)

You could try the Crossover free trial but I don't know where you'd get a copy of Media Player 11 to install - from my experience it's pretty tightly knitted into the Microsoft XP/Vista OS's.

Zune doesn't work either but could be worth a try:
