Hello expensive visitors to my blog. Now the social network VKontakte for many is no longer only the opportunity to communicate with friends, but also a huge storage of music and video. I am writing this because myself is so and all my friends. On the computer, I have a huge number of tracks, but for the past few years I only listen to them when problems with the Internet. And mostly contact is open with me just because the music is reproduced from there. 🙂

I think you have the same situation. But sometimes it happens that after reinstalling the operating system, system failure, or buying another computer, music and video refuse is reproduced, and the music from contact does not play, and the video does not show. Now I will tell how to solve the problem with playing music and video with social network In contact with.

In principle, music and video will not be reproduced not only by VKontakte, but also on other sites and in any browser. And all this is most likely because you have not installed Adobe Flash Player.

I do not remember exactly the music player says, but the video player will tell you about it, and will offer to install a flash player.

Indeed, the whole problem is treated with a simple installation of the Flash player, after which the video on the Internet shows normally, and music plays.

How to install Flash Player to play Music VKontakte?

Everything is as always very simple :). Switch by reference http://get.adobe.com/ru/flashplayer/ and take a tick with "Yes Install Google Chrome"If you need this browser, you can leave a tick. Then click "Download".

A window will appear with a proposal to save the installation file, but what would be less problems for "Run".

After the file is loaded immediately, its installation will begin. If this window appears:

Then click "Yes" and continue the installation of the flash player. The installation is very simple as always, you just need to press "Next" several times, and at the end "Ready."

There are situations when VKontakte (VC) suddenly does not reproduce music? Sometimes it may be problems with a specific track, for example, the one who has uploaded it - deleted the material, or forbidden access, then it may be found that in your playlist VKontakte some kind of music playing, and somehow does not turn on. And what to do, if the whole playlist, all the music does not work?

Let's try to figure out why there may be problems with playing music in such a popular network as VKontakte.

Why does not music turn on in VK? If the problem of VKontakte site itself?

Then many users of VKontakte will stop working with music, you, a friend, a neighbor. If you are at work, you can ask your colleagues, whether everything works with them. Also on the Internet you can find fresh complaints from other users who massively write that music does not turn on.

Music VKontakte does not work. If problems are on your side, what to do and how to check?

1. Interruptions of the provider

For example, suddenly, the provider reduced the speed, so not all tracks can be reproduced because of this, as they will not have time to load into the clipboard. In this case, "caching" helps, turn on the track and stop and wait when it boots. The same situation will be with viewing any video. To more less comfortably use the benefits of the Internet - watch videos and listen to music, the connection speed must be at least 200 kbps. Otherwise, you will have to wait when the provider eliminates its problems.

2. Not enough space on your computer.

It is also pretty simply solved - it is necessary to free 1-2 GB of memory and the problem with playing music in VC has been solved!

3. Problems with browser or flash player.

If the problem is in a specific browser, then you just need to go to a page with music from another browser. If everything is played in the new browser, then the previous browser does not work correctly. This is usually happening if your browser is obsolete or has not been updated for a long time.

Solution: Update the browser to latest version And that's it.

Sometimes there are plugins in the browser that can interfere with the correct playback of music, for example, when there is any plug-in blocking advertising. For example, Mozilla Firefox is Flashblock plugins, adblock or some other. If such plugins are standing, you can simply disable them and then the music in the VC will again be played.

In Mozilla Firefox we go to the "Menu" and find "add-ons".

In the "Additions" section, we go to the "Extensions" section and turn off the plugin that can block advertising, in our case, is Adblock Plus.

If the Adobe Flash Player flash player has stopped working - also apply to the site and download the freshest update.

After reinstalling or updating Adobe Flash Player, you must restart the browser.

It is also necessary to check that this plugin is turned on. Yes, sometimes Adobe Flash Player can be disabled.

4. Antivirus.

If the reason is in it, then when the antivirus is disconnected for a while, Music VKontakte must earn again. Such a situation is possible if at some point, antivirus programs included the VKontakte website to your non-vowel "black list" and it prevents the site to work correctly, respectively, and the music through the VC does not turn on.

Solution: You need to add a site to allowed in the settings of the antivirus. If it does not help, you will also need to update the antivirus to the fresh version.

5. The most difficult reason is not the correct operation of the computer's operating system.

Complicated, as it requires very global actions, it is reinstallation of the operating system. The fact is that sometimes when we use unknown programs, or feverishly put everything in a row, or some kind of program has been established with errors, it may lead to the fact that non-record operating system systems cease to work correctly. If it is in this, then you will have other problems with the work of the computer, for example, no files or programs are stopped reading. In this case, this is a complete reinstalling of the operating system, for this you need to take care in advance about the safety of important files and information.

Today we have disassembled the most common causes of why Music VKontakte does not work. There are probably more exotic causes of such problems, but this is a topic for one of the future articles.

Hello! The social network "VKontakte" has already tightly settled in our lives. For some users, it has become a replacement of not only the phone, but also a music player. And indeed, the VK server constantly falls new music, here you can find almost any audio recording, regardless of year of production and popularity.

You can not only save music to your page, well, and make comfortable albums that perform the same function as the playlist in the player. But sometimes going to your page, you wonder: why doesn't music play in contact? There may be several reasons, but it is easy enough to solve the problem. After reviewing today's material, you will definitely find a suitable way, and in a couple of minutes you can enjoy your favorite audio recordings again.

Why doesn't music play in contact?

So let's get start and find out how many reasons do not play music in contact.

Music may not work because of:

1. Outdated Flash player;

2. incompatibility with antivirus;

3. Browser failure;

4. Errors of the site itself.

Cause # 1 - Outdated Flash Player

Flash player is responsible for playing on the websites of applications, advertising, audio and video recordings. Of course, if the site is worth the latest version of this utility, and you have to be obsolete, then you will not be played videos and audio. The problem is solved very simply - you need to update the flash player. Check if there are advertisements on other sites. Sometimes the browser itself reports that the utility is outdated.

It looks like this:

Go to the official website of the player - here is the link https://get.adobe.com/ru/flashplayer/otherversions/

We should click the download button, after which the latest version of the Flash player will boot to the computer. In general, more detailed instructions You will find in this article to update the Flash player.

Let's briefly run on the installation of this Flash player. So, run the installation file. Before installation, it is recommended to close all running browsers. In any case, the player will ask you to do it.

Important! Flash player is constantly trying to install third-party software, which you most likely do not need. Now this browser is Google Chrome - when installing, do not forget to remove the checkbox opposite the additional files.

Ready, now go to your page and run any audio recording. Helped? Excellent! If not, then go further.

Reason # 2 - incompatibility with antivirus

The second reason is associated with the antivirus program. As one day one of my readers asked me a question: Dmitry, why not playing music in contact on my computer? Really facilitated by the installed antivirus, which I just installed yesterday on my computer.

Here I will have to report that the problem appears extremely rarely, but without an instruction, it may not be solved by every ordinary user. Audio recordings on a social network may not be played for the reason that the embedded web screen of your antivirus intercepts it, but gives it wrong. To make sure that the problem is in antivirus, all of its functions must be disabled and check, earned songs or not.

Of course, for the sake of listening to music it is impossible to leave a computer without protecting the antivirus. Just need to add a website vk.com to the list of trusted sites, after that the problem will be solved.

IMPORTANT! In order not to take trojans and worms, before adding it is necessary to update the antivirus to the latest version.

There is such a problem only in some antiviruses. Most often, Kaspersky Anti-Virus Program owners complain about the lack of audio reproduction, so for example, take it.

Run Kaspersky and go to the settings. In the first tab, select the web protection parameters, as shown in the screenshot:

In the settings, we need to go to the "Trusted Addresses" tab, simply drive into a selected field of the social network address as follows: * .vk.com / *

You need to enter this way, otherwise the trusted address will be only the main page of the site.

You can also try to move the settings slider or turn off the Kaspersky Anti-Virus web protection function. After these actions, it is necessary to check whether the problem remains or not. If the music is still not reproduced, we will try to completely disable traffic control from the browser through which you usually go to your social network page. The step is quite risky, since staying on the Internet will be unsafe. We go to the third tab called "Network", then click the left mouse button to "choose".

In the list, find the browser through which you come into contact. Remove the checkbox from it. By the way, such an action can also other problems arising when working with the browser. For example, "broken" pictures will open normally. But do not forget that disabling web protection for the browser can negatively affect the safety of the entire computer.

Another "problem" in this regard Antivirus is NOD32. If, when you turn off all its audio records, you earned again, then try to disable web antivirus in it.

Cause # 3 - Browser Failures

The third reason why music does not play in contact, can hide in the browser itself. The browser can also be the cause of non-working music. Exclude this reason is pretty easy - run audio recording in another browser installed on your computer. If assumptions were confirmed, then try to update the application to the latest version or reinstall it.

If you often install extensions for the browser, then the reason for the work of one of them. These are usually advertising blockers. If you use Mozilla Firefox, then try to enter the settings menu, go to "Additions - Extensions", and then turn off the FlashBlock module.

After restarting the browser, the problem should be solved. There is also a workaround at which you do not need to completely turn off Flashblock. It is necessary to go to its settings and add a site to a white list, as shown in the screenshot below:

Plugins can have another name, for example, "addblock" or "addblock plus". They have one work, so be sure to turn them off.

At the end of today's article "Why not playing music in contact" I strongly recommend that you check the sound in other applications, whether players are launched on the computer. If not, it may have occurred in the work of the drivers. To start restart the computer, but if it did not help, then download the latest drivers for your motherboard ( sound card Usually embedded in the motherboard).

It will not hurt to check the computer for viruses. Malicious files in rare cases can block the operation of various players.

Music or video VKontakte may not be played for several reasons. In this article, I will scatter all the possible options and ways to solve the problem. By the way, almost the same thing can be done if any other video or audio on the Internet does not work.

So, we will act as exceptions. Let's discern with such problems as:

1. The speed of your Internet
2. Flash Player performance
3. Incompatibility with antivirus
4. Problems with a browser (read first of all those who have Mozilla Firefox)
5. Viruses in Computer
6. Problems with operating system or computer
7. Crash site vkontakte or any other

Now everything is in order. But remember that from October 1, 2017, VK and classmates introduced restrictions! Now, in order to listen to music in a folded application or with a locked phone - you have to pay.

For the playback of the media system, you need speed!

The most common problem is. If it is lower than 200-300 kbps, then there will be problems with playing high-quality music. And if lower than 100 kb / s, then the majority of tracks will slow down. The video requires an even better compound, at least 500 kb / s.

In principle, at low speed, caching should help, i.e. When you click "Play" and immediately pause. Then wait when the strip will be filled and turn on the track again.

If you are sure that you have to have a good speed, but the tests turned out quite a little, then contact your Internet provider so that it understands the problem. Okay, let's say everything in order and the rest of the sites "fly".

Flash player performance

Next you need to make sure that Adobe Flash Player works correctly. This is a special module that uses all browsers to play music, video and to work Flash games. If the flash player is not, then most likely there will be such a message:

I advise you to read in more detail. Also keep in mind that in the Google Chrome browser this module is built from birth. By the way, it is recommended to update the module to the latest version in all browsers. For this you need to first install a new one.

After you install the plugin for any other browser, check whether the music is played in contact. Also known, try, if nothing helps. If the problem was not in this, then we go further.

Problems with browser

Next, let's exclude the browser itself. Make it easy - just try to lose music in another browser, and if the reason was in this, then everything will work. Maybe the browser has been incorrectly installed or damaged its files, such as a virus. To solve the problem in your browser, I recommend updating it to the latest version through the Help -\u003e menu, if this does not happen in automatic mode.

A frequent reason why stopped playing Music VK may be the operation of various extensions or plug-ins in the browser. Basically, this is noticed behind the blocks of advertising. In particular, if you have Mozilla Firefox, then just go to "Menu -\u003e Additions -\u003e Extensions" And turn off the Flashblock module.

The problem with music will disappear after restarting the browser. You can not turn off Flashblock, but simply go to its settings and add the site "vk.com" to the white list, like this:

If there is no such (Flashblock), then look for similar names, for example, Adblock Plus. At worst, advise to disable all the installed extensions or additions and look at the result (concerns any browsers).

To begin with, I would recommend to roll back to the earlier, at that time when everything worked as it should. Well, if it does not help, then reinstall the entire system. If you yourself are not able to implement this, then ask a familiar specialist.

If, after pressing the "Play" button, the audio recording strip becomes blue, i.e. The song is loaded, but there is no sound, then most likely the problem with the audio device. In this case, the sound should not be on other sites. How to solve such read in my article.

There may still be a problem with internet IPv6 protocol (if you have Windows 7/8/10). To check and eliminate this option, do the following:

If it does not help, please return the donkey back.

And also, quite certainly stupidly but sometimes forget to simply turn on or connect the speakers in the correct socket or add the volume in the Windows mixer ...

Incompatibility with antivirus

Laying audio VKontakte sometimes does not work because of your antivirus. Yes Yes exactly! The built-in web screen intercepts the sound from the browser and incorrectly gives it back. To check this if the problem is very simple - it is only necessary to turn off all the functions of the antivirus.

If after that everything worked, then you need to add a website by Vkontakte to the trusted address of the antivirus. But it is better to update the antivirus program to the latest version. After all, when we add a site to a trusted area, then actually give green light to all worms!

Nevertheless, I will show how to do it in Kaspersky Anti-Virus, for which I personally noticed this problem. We go to the settings and on the first tab go to the settings of the web antivirus

You can try to move the slider or turn off the web antivirus. If the problem did not solve, then we will do more hard - turn off traffic control from our browser. This is a dangerous step, because actually disables antivirus for the Internet. You need to go to the third tab "Network -\u003e Select ..."

Next, we find our browser on the list and take a tick from it. Sometimes this focus solves many problems with the browser, in particular the "broken" pictures become normal. But security, of course, suffers.

Problems are also seen when using NOD32 antivirus. If after it is turned off the browser begins to play the sound, then try to disable web antivirus in it.

Site of site VKontakte

Recently, I did not observe this, but still. If glitches in the VK itself, that is, it makes sense to wait an hour or two and try to enable music to playback. This concerns any other Internet resources. In general, I recommend through a special Meridian program, which I wrote about. If it is not reproduced through it, then the problem with the contact itself or with your Internet is likely.

I myself informs that something worked, worked and Batz! - Nifiga does not work. We must sit, spend your time, search and read articles where nothing is clear what you can do, the problem must be solved. I hope you now do not have to spend a lot of time on it.

What to do when you do not download audio recordings (music does not play) in VKontakte application on your phone or tablet? What if the music disappeared? Here we will give specific solutions to this problem, and we will also deal with why it happens.

This is the current instruction for 2019.

Attention: Sometimes it happens that VK is buggy. Enable any song - an error when playing audio recordings. And so everyone. In this case, do nothing, just wait. Listen to music somewhere on another site. Solutions for other cases - below.

If you have a mistake in the old version of VKontakte application, When you go to "music", "My audio recordings", it is due to the fact that the background listening to music on the phone from November 1, 2017 is limited to 30 minutes a day. You will have to update the application to remove the error. Perhaps if you do not do this, you will not have music at all. It turned out that the freebie was not eternal! Read more at the end of the page.

Music disappeared

Solution: Exit Account and go

Try to get out of the account in the application (that is, from your page) and again go. Only first, you will remember that you remember the login and password. It usually corrects a mistake when music disappeared:

1. Fifth button in the bottom row.
2. The gear button on the right at the top - settings will open.
3. At the bottom "Go out".
4. Go back to the application again by entering the login and password.

If you do not remember the password, you have to make a new one, that is, to restore access: Password recovery, access VKontakte. The most important thing here is that the page is tied to your acting phone number.

Errors when playing audio recordings

You want to include music in the VKontakte application on your phone or tablet (most often on Android), and the music does not play and you are issued one of the errors:

There is also a situation where you go to "my music", and all the music completely disappeared. In "Recommendations" at the same time - "Error. Try again". In audio recordings of friends, music does not show either, it seemed to disappear.

Solution: Clear audio cache in the VK application

For smartphones on Android (not iPhones) there is such a solution: clear Cache Audio. This is the memory on the phone where the songs that you include are saved. Gradually, it ends, and this error occurs. But this setting is not in all versions of the application.

1. Open the application settings - the fifth button in the bottom row, then the gear button on the right above.
2. Further open "Basic".
3. Find item "Clear Cache Music" and click.
4. Turn off "Cache music" (Switch to the right of this inscription).
5. Turn on again "Cache music" The same switcher.

Now try to turn the song again. If you do - congratulations! Now you know the way to solve the problem.

If you still error, what other ways to solve the problem?

1. Change the place of saving music - if the internal memory is selected there, switch to the memory card (go to the application settings, then "Basic", Further "Location").
2. Delete all the data of the VC application in the phone settings: for example, "Settings - All Applications - VKontakte - Erase Data» And there "Clear cache".
3. Try to restart the smartphone (turn it off and on again).
4. Remove the VC application completely and again install it from Google Play.
5. If you open an entry in the application to which the music is attached, then the "three points" menu will be up to the right. Click on them and choose "Open in the browser." A page with this song in the browser will open, and it will be possible to enable it for playback.
6. Change your phone with Android on iPhone (or tablet with Android on Ipad).

Why does this error occur? What to do to her no longer?

This error occurs when the memory on the phone or tablet ends to save audio. When in the application settings included "Cache music", It retains every song in memory to do not upload it next time, but immediately play. And the memory is gradually clogged with music. Perhaps in the future this flaw will be corrected. Do not be lazy to update the VC application when its new versions appear.

For now, there are two solutions: either disable "Music caching" In the settings (see above how to do it), or from time to time to clean the memory (point in the settings "Clear Cache Music"). Also, if you disassemble well in Android, you can try to change the location of the audio. Maybe now music is saved to the internal memory of the phone, and you need to save the memory card - because there is more space.

What if I have a phone on Windows Phone, the audio is not loaded, gives an error?

Phones on Windows Phone go back and cease to be supported. The work of the VK application on them is no longer guaranteed, including playing music. It is best to buy a new phone (iPhone or something normal on android).

What to do if "reproduction of this audio is impossible due to the claims of the copyright holder"?

The fact is that each song has a host (copyright holder), which manages the rights to copy and reproduce this song. If someone has flooded with a stranger on Vkontakte's website, and then they listen to it all for free, such a situation of the copyright holder does not suit - because he does not receive money from this! In essence, he has steal. Therefore, he agrees with the site Vkontakte so that the song can not be heard free of charge. But then you get this error. What to do? Buy a song or the whole album for money and listen to your pleasure. Such life, nothing personal.

"Background listening to music is limited." How to remove the restriction?

Restriction (error) can not be removed. If you do not want to subscribe to music, you can only open the full version of VC on the phone (there is no time limit) and include music in it. But it is not very convenient.

There are other paid music services that are no worse, and maybe even better. Many people and at all cost without VC to listen to music (after all, before any VC did not exist, and they still listened to music).
