I have Crescendo Plug-in downloaded and installed on my hard drive.

I am trying to get it to work in Netscape 7, but all it will do is play in
IE.

I don't understand why this is. I mean, when I went to the download page it
told me if I wanted to install it to Netscape browser then the file path I
should use is:

C:\ProgramFiles\Netscape\Netscape7\plug-ins

That's exactly what I did. When it asked me for the file path I put in the
file path I just quoted above.

But when I went to My Computer and opened up Netscape and looked at Plug-ins
it wasn't listed, even though the set-up program told me it was creating that
file.

Does anyone here have any idea why Crescendo won't install as a plug-in in
Netscape and what I can do to get it to install to Netscape?

Also, I have midi on my Website and I put in: embed src="name of midi" and it
will play in IE using Windows Media Player.

Is there a code for Crescendo that I need to put on my webpage so that it
will play the
midi in Netscape and if so what would that code be?

The last time I contacted them they wanted me to pay them money for tech
support.

Have you contacted Netscape and gotten free assistance?

Did you do a Windows search for the Crescendo plug-in?

I'm pretty sure it will, but since I don't have it installed I can't check
to see where NS needs it installed. I use NS 7.2, and I looked at my files
under Programs and Application Data and seem to have media plugins in
several places.

You can go to this web page [below] and ask your questions in their Netscape
forum, or in the NS newsgroups for some free advice. I always had better
luck in the newsgroups, but you may want to try both.

I went to the Forum you gave me the link for above and it CLEARLY said that
if I registered I would be able to immediately post a question to the forum.

Well I registered and it WOULD NOT let me post.


I have been trying to get a resolution to this problem for six weeks. It is
about to drive me crazy. I don't really need any more dead ends like this
forum that won't let me in.


To answer your question: Yes, I did a windows search for the plug-in using
the file path I was told to use to get it to work and I was told that the
file was unavailable.

How do I look at Programs and Applications Data? I mean, I know where
programs are on MY COMPUTER, but I have no idea where to look for
Applications Data.

And yes I too seem to have plug-ins in several places.

All I want to do is to get Crescendo Plug-in to work in Netscape so that it
will play my midi on my webpage using Netscape Browser.

Can someone PLEASE tell me how I do this?

Did you get in later today, and start the thread showing there now, iniated
by Dr.Seven? I was going to post your question for you, until I saw that.

It is a volunteer supported site, and doesn't update or give feedback as
quickly as you would get from a commercial site. Patience... please.

XP is still a foreign creature to me, as it seems to have outside program
files everywhere. Other files that control Netscape [and other programs]
are also under C:\Documents and Settings\~your name~\Application
Data\Mozilla. They aren't all in the Program File.

Also FWIW my music player is under C:\Documents and Settings\~my name~\Local
Settings\Application Data also.

Jay Garcia is an old hand with NS, and that's his site I referred you to, if
he can't help you, there are people in the NS newsgroups who have more
patience than he does. Sorry I'm not using Crescendo, so I could be of more
help.

If you type in Netscape+Crescendo at Google... you will get a wealth of
links that may prove helpful... among these, is this one that has detailed
instructions on what to check, based on what O/S and software you have:

the armadilloweb site is where I downloaded Crescendo player from and that's
where I was told to put in this file path:

C:\Program Files\Netscape\Netscape7\Plug-ins.

And when I put in that file path it just put it in IE anyway.

How frustrating!

I will check google as you suggested. It can't get any more hopeless.
