I followed the links but this site appears to charge for the MusicMatch Jukebox-there was no free option. The site says it's a 7 day free trial and songs are 99 cents each. Also, will selecting the 10.1 version overwrite the current version that's installed?
OK, try this one at soft32.com. It will be free for sure. I think the charge that you mention is for one of the premium services. As far as I know the basic jukebox is free. The PLUS version and on demand items do cost.
If you can open MM Jukebox you can click on "options" and then click "upgrade". You should be able to upgrade on top of the current version. I have done this on several different computers and have had no trouble.
MusicMatch Jukebox was aquired by Yahoo! in 2004, which was then remade into Yahoo! Music Jukebox, However Yahoo! Music Jukebox was discontinued in 2008. - The download link above takes you to a page where you can download old versions.
I have MM JB running on two computers which are both WINDOWS 8.1. "how?" you might ask. I had read one of the comments before (here as well) that they installed MMJB version 7.5 and then MMJB version 10 and IT DID REALLY WORKED. just don't be lazy and start asking for the the links. search it.
I'm a Musicmatch fan since the very first version of it, so it's really hard to just change to "another option" after all this time... but sadly after 6 years of great performance, I was in the need of format my gaming computer that has W7 Ultimate 64-Bit version, before the format, I had MMJB running pretty solid.
I did a fresh install of W7 Ultimate 64-Bit and its now updated to SP1 (I hate the Upgrade to W10 offer...) and I proceeded with installation of the rest of the software I need, everything went smooth... until I stumbled with all the problems to install MMJB 10... so I did some googling and found a lot of "possible fixes" and I tried all of them... ALL OF THEM!!! with no luck.
So, after like 30 tries and fails... I decided to install other music player... I don't like iTunes so I looked at my portable drive where I have some software and I grab the SonicStage 4.3 and installed it, everything works like a charm with it but still, SS is not MMJB... and then I recall this page where I see the comment from Richard and I was like, meh... lets try it...
Now, go and install the MMJB 10.004033 and wait for the installation to finish. I must tell you that I did not went into the compatibility tab nor marked to run it as an Administrator, I just double clicked the exe and wait for it to finish. I did not get any warning nor errors messages at this point, so I just restart my computer.
When I get back I double clicked again but this time on the shortcut from the desktop and MMJB 10 opens immediately. No Px.DLL errors or nothing like that, the program is running like a charm since a couple of hours with not a single problem.
I've been struggling a while now to figure out why MMJB 10 is running on two of my Computers on Windows 7 Prof 64bit and why I cannot
get it to work on others with the same OS. I was always getting the "PX.DLL is missing error".
This afternoon i searched for this file on a machine which could runn MMJB. I found it and saw that this file was actually from a Company named "SONIC"
from which I had a piece of Software running of called "SonicStage". I used this to ransfer files from my MiniDisc Players to the Computer.
To make a Long Story short. I installed Sonic Stage on the machine I am setting up currently (which refused MMJB so far) and after that I installed MMJB 10
without any error Messages. I rebooted the machine and started MM without Problems. I did not try it yet but since I have it running on two machines already
I guess it will work on the third one also. The key to the Problem(s) seems to be this stupid "PX.DLL". If you get a proper one from another program MM should
run. Before I forget, of course I got the messages from Windows about compat-issue but I just ignored them and kept clicking run program.
The bad news is,that SonicStage is discontinued but at the Moment you can still find it here:
I went to minidiscforum.de to try to download SonicStage but as it is not in English and the download button did not download it, I clicked on everything on the page that was clickable but could not find the download link. Could you point me in the right direction please?
I see alot of you are still kicking it. I have Musicmatch working on a Win 7 Pro in XP mode. Tried all the alternatives without being even remotely satisfied. Media Monkey Premium is mediocre at best. I do revisit this topic every few months.
I ran across this forum and I am sure they would value your inputs and opinions plus support. I personally do not understand why somebody has not made a version even close to similar. I did read however that Rapsody bought Yahoo Music so that is why I am assuming the yahoo version update is nowhere to be found. I might have it on an old thumb drive though.
I'm trying to find a way to get Musicmatch Jukebox 10 to recognize my CD drive so I can rip music. I'm able to run Musicmatch Jukebox 10 on my Windows 8.1 64 bit laptop but it doesn't recognize either the CD drive or the virtual CD drive. If anyone has a fix for this if they could e-mail me my email is jeckl...@msn.com. Also if anyone has the Musicmatch 7.5 original skins I'd settle for that since 7.5 recognizes my virtual cd drive.
All of my best memories making Mix CD's and just "playing DJ" with my friends was with Musicmatch. I miss it so much! Does anyone know which version was the one that had the purple and white "moon and stars" skin? I may try to download this on an XP machine, but I want to use the right version.
I happened to find this page via an old bookmark link I had saved. I was once a die hard MusicMatch Jukebox fan. I hated the new interface when Yahoo acquired it, and couldn't stand to use iTunes. I've since come across, in my opinion, a better music player and library management software, Media Monkey. You guys should really check it out instead of going through the hassle of getting musicmatch working via XP virtualization. www.mediamonkey.com
P.S. I'm not associated with mediamonkey in any way, nor do I stand to profit or benefit in any way. I just really like their software and think former music match jukebox fans can benefit from it as well.
I'm currently trying MediaMonkey now and am not real crazy about it. I really miss Music Match before Yahoo and am already missing Media Juke Box from J River, but they removed the best feature of being able to right click and download album art from the internet. I'll no longer support the program after that, especially since in their documentation they still say you can do that, but you can't. I'm surprised I can't find anything out there I like as much. MediaMonkey is a very complex, confusing UI and it's difficult to distinguish the active song as the white blends in to the black background equally with the rest. A small thing, but irritating no less.
Does anyone have the original disk for Musicmatch 9? I have seen a few comments on here that the installer on the original works on Windows 7 64 bit. I would really like to get a copy as I am desperate to get version 9 or 10 working.
OMG...when I downloaded this, and heard the wave file for MusicMatch play through my speakers, I was amazed...even better...songs that I had paid for many years ago are now playable! I thought I was never going to hear these again.
I installed MMJB successfully (supertagging, AutoDJ, EQ's all work fine). I have not tried the recorder function, but all my HDD's and DVD Burner are recognized. There may be a delay experienced when browsing the Library because Win 7 is first emulating Win XP, then operating MMJB in the XP environment. Whenever you want to run MMJB, it must be done using the Windows XP mode.
This is a just a fyi.
Yes that sort of works.If you want to pay for the upgrade,and don't mind that your 5.1 won't work,and the program is glitchy as hell.
And Super tagging will not work in any method you use..The sites it used no longer exist.
With that said.I have MMJB working on Win 7 Ultimate which is 64 bit.All of it works except for the parts that connect to the internet.
I can make a play list and burn it from MMJB,works fine.Manualy edit the tags.If you have music that was in a working MMJB it will have all the tags and covers already..Just won't get newer ones.
For a brief time after Yahoo changed to their own jukebox from MMJB you could download it, install it,and then install MMJB 10 and it worked.The yahoo version installed the parts needed for MMJB to work on a 64 bit system.
When i got another computer with Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit I went to install MMJB.And couldn't.Yahoo,may they rest in hell,had discontinued their jukebox player,and had taken down all links to it.
At that point I made a full backup of my Win 7 Ultimate system.And continue to do so after any major updates or program install.
I've used the back up a couple of times and MMJB still works.
If you can find the Yahoo version you can get MMJB to run .I haven't had any luck doing that.If i were into programing and knew how to actually move a program and or it's settings to another computer,MMJB would work on other machines.But sadly I have no clue.
i have gotten MMJB 10 to work on 32 bit systems several times by changing all the .exe's to XP SP2 compatibility..
I have got mmjb 10 to work on windows 7 pro 64 bit without virtualization or using compatablity mode. I downloaded mmjb 7.5.3103 and installed. Its works fine and you could stop here and use it, but I prefer mmjb 10. I downloaded mmjb 10 ( if you already have a copy of mmjb 10, use it ) and installed it without deleting 7.5. After rebooting computer it works fine.
