I installed an AeroPlayer skin from above and now I cannot get into AudioPlayer. AudioPlayer says "Cannot find AudioPlayer skin database", and then it sends me back to my launcher.

1) I never did install AeroPlayer and

2) I have deleted the AeroPlayer skin (same problem occurs though)

How do I fix this?
Thanks:)

I don't use AeroPlayer so my comment may not weigh too much. It sounds like the AeroPlayer has corrupted the AudioPlayerSkin to me. A question to you: If you look into your ROM file list via FileZ, do you still see AudioPlayerSkin (mine is about 168KB) below AudioPlayer? If not, or if anything else fail to fix the problem, I would just do a hard reset and restore the RAM from MS. I assume you backup your RAM to MS prior to installing the AeroPlayer.

Thanks DanT,

I never installed AeroPlayer. I see with myWorkBench that I have an AudioPlayerSkin of 346K in ROM, AudioPlayer itself weighing in at 152K, AudioLibrary at 15K and a RAM file also called AudioPlayerSkin 85B that I think I want to delete? I will wait for more feedback before a hard reset. Not that I don't trust you, because I do, I just hate to do it though. You understand:)

I did it! Woo Hoo! It was removing that 85B size file that brought it back to life. It was screwing with my system. I had to go into McFile, go to properties and uncheck "backup" and "read only" in order to delete it. :)

Good call!

In my N760C the default AudioPlayerSkin is in ROM and any addon skins, e.g., AudioplayerSkin_cyber.prc, are in RAM. From messing around with skins, those skins in RAM can get corrupted easily and make the AudioPlayer crash or at least acting weird. By deleting the skins in RAM, the AudioPlayer is defaulting to use the one in ROM. What you just did is confirming what had happened to me in the past. Thanks for the update.
