    Musiclist for alarm clock / ringtones / sms isn´t refreshing

    hey guys !



    I have a problem with the music on my "nokia xpress music 5800".



    I transfered new music on the phone and updated the playlist in the music player....



    but when it comes to changing the ringtone for a profile, or the music which is played for the alarms the list where you can choose still only includes the old files.



    when i choose files that aren´t on the phone anymore it says "unsupported format", files that are still there can be used without problems.



    so how can i refresh the list so removed tracks won´t be displayed anymore??ß



    regards,

    mat!

    .mov files are displaying This file isn’t playable. That might be because the file type is unsupported, the file extension is incorrect, or the file is corrupt.

    Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.
