Hi I downloaded last.fm for windows and I cannot seem to get it to update. It is a free source program that records what songs you have listened to and then posts the list on a website and takes data based on your playlist.

I was wondering if any of you use this program.

I downloaded the plug-ins like it says and am using winamp to play my music.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Does the last.fm icon even show up in the taskbar near the clock in Windows? If you open the last.fm program and go to Tools is there a check for updates icon?

Or, is it not even grabbing info from winamp and displaying it, or updating it to the website. If that's the case, go to plugins in winamp and see if last.fm is listed there, and start the plugin from there. If there's an option you may want to select something like 'start last.fm plug-in when starting winamp', if you want it to.

Look for kurty757 on last.fm, go ahead and add me as a friend.

Things to check for are:

1) What kurty[B] said, check the Winamp folder, and check for the audioscrobbler/last.fm plugin

2) In earlier versions of the last.fm program, it would not install the plugins correctly if they were installed anywhere except for the C:\program files\(player directory). I have it installed for iTunes, on a D:\itunes folder, and had to manually place the plugin in that directory.

3) when you are playing music in Winamp, and you open the last.fm program, does the track bar say "Track Scrobbled", "time remaining", or "Currently listening to" anywhere? If any of those do not come up at any time, then there is a problem with the plugin

4) Did you enter your information - user name and password? Verify by logging out of the website, and logging back in. Use the same user name and password on the site and in the program.

5) There is an option to not scrobble tracks in the last.fm program. Make sure that the "Do not scrobble tracks" option is not selected

First off, thanks for the replys.

THe icon does show up in the taskbar.
The tools menu does have a check for updates icon.
It is not grabbing infor from winamp and displaying it in the software or the website.

The track bar does not say "Track Scrobbled", "time remaining", or "Currently listening to" anywhere, so I assume there is a problem with the plug in like you said.
The "enable scrobbling of played tracks" option is selected.
The login is correct for the website and the program.
My winamp is on a "F:".
I also cannot configure the plug in in the winamp "Plug-ins -> Media Library" menu.
I think I may have to manually have to install it into the f:\winamp folder. However I am not able to find the Audioscrobbler plug-in file to move the folder.

do a search for a *_scrobbler.dll file, where * is probably wt, or something. If you just leave it at *_scrobbler.dll, it will probably show up somewhere in C:

Once you find it, throw it into your F:\..\winamp\plugins folder
