When converting DRM-protected MP3 and WMA files (and DRM files in general) Microsoft Windows 7 will sometimes show an error message stating “Windows Media Revocation and Renewal”. This error message usually shows after 20 to 30 files have been converted in Tunebite.

This is not an error in Tunebite, but a conflict in Windows Media Player. The same error would occur, if you played several DRM-protected files in a related video/audio player.

When this error message occurs Tunebite will display a box stating the software applications causing the problems. The easiest solution is to disable this/these software applications as long as you use Tunebite to convert DRM protected music and movies.

To verify that these applications are running in Windows you can use “Task Manager” – click the CTRL + ALT + DELETE keys simultaneously to open it. Please do the following:

• Close down the application(s) Tunebite indicated as being in conflict via the Task Manager.
• Disable this/these application(s) from starting up in Windows automatically. Click the Windows button and enter the following into the search box “msconfig.exe” -> Select Startup tab and tick applications here you wish to disable from starting up with Windows.
• Start Tunebite as an administrator. Right-click the program icon and select “Run as Administrator…”

If you encounter the message “Playback error” in Windows, while using Tunebite to convert protected filer then apply this solution to solve the problem.

All you’ve to do is to play the audio or video filers in the original media player – e.g. WMA and WMV in Windows Media Player or M4V, M4P, and .aa files in iTunes.

Starting your own business can be a jungle. There are many things to do and keep track of. Here you get an overview of where to start and who is a good idea to ally with.

Start-up quietly

When you start a business and start it up, it is important to have good control over your business, your concept and your strategy from the start. It is important to get around well before choosing to go airborne.

Many may be tempted to get started quickly and launch quickly and start accepting customers, but if you haven’t prepared all the important aspects, launching quickly can be a disadvantage.

Imagine thinking about getting out of the market quickly so you can start making money, but you have no control over your specific strategy, systems, website, and how you want to handle your customers and service them in the best possible way.

Your digital presence plays a role

One of the most important things when you need to launch and get your business ready for real business, whether in IT, business or anything else, you need to be in control of your digital presence.

Many Danes are online, which means we search for information online, find products online and make purchases online. It is therefore not inconceivable that you must have a functional, user-friendly and attractive website from the start, so that your customers can find you on their digital services.

Just having a website is not enough. It should also appeal to your target audience and your visitors should be able to see what you can offer them right away. That’s why it’s really important to prioritize some of your budget for the website.

Think internationally from the start

If you have great ambitions for your business, it is also a good idea right from the start to think about the possibility of expanding internationally.

Maybe you are selling a product or service that is very easy to get into other foreign markets. Often it just requires you to service your clients in their native language or customize your services to an international perspective.

It is very important to speak the language of the particular country you want to sell in, and therefore you can ally yourself with a competent translation agency so that you can appeal directly to your future customers. Contact a translation agency, if necessary, to save time on translations while ensuring the correct and professional translation.

Come to one of the world’s leading marketplaces

If you sell products, getting into the big physical stores can be difficult. Often it is only the large and well-established brands that get a place there, and so there is a lot of time wasted in negotiating with these big houses.

A good idea is to start selling online and build your brand, so you are better off in the physical world in the long run.

So, start building a website from the very beginning to ensure the widest possible audience. The Internet is growing, and it is far easier to get its stuff sold online if you just have the right marketing.
