Twanger Central ... Desperately need help!!

bri · April 12th, 2005, 09:18 PM

Love the concept of Twanger Central but I'm so computer challenged that I can't hear any of the music!!
What am I doing wrong? I'll try to download an mp-3 and the computer does its thing for a while and finally says "Done". But, nothing happens. What should I do next after the "Done " signal comes up? I feel so dumb! Everyone else replies and says how great the music was and I'm sitting here wondering what happened. My computer is a Windows XP set-up. Any help GREATLY appreciated.

Try right clicking/downloading the songs into your HD, then right click on file and open with WMP.

Mine opens them up with WMP without prompting....but I hope this helps.

Using Microsoft Explorer, right-click on an mp3 link, and choose "Save Target As..." I usually then save the song to my desktop, so I can listen to it right away without having to go looking for it.

Cheers, Tim

Tim, your suggestion worked for me and I listened to "I Want to Tell You". Great song, great music. My only problem now is our slow speed dial-up. I'll be dead of old age before I get to hear a quarter of these songs.
Thanks again.
