Zune Help?

[Serren]

Is that pass worth doing Peench? I have not used mine, nor do I remember seeing it actually. I think I read about a trick where you can leech the heck out of the site, and then if you never do something, you can keep the music forever. Not sure what the trick is though.... Crippler?

[Peench]

It is totally worth using. There are loads of artists on the marketplace and it was super fun simply downloading the songs/albums and listening to them.

And yes, Crippler knows the Tunebite trick and has published instructions somewhere I believe.

[KEEZY]

ZING!

Yeah, I don't think I got it, but I'll check when I get home. All I got was the tiny picture-style instructions, product manual and CD. I should just return it and wait for the Halo 3 Edition.

I didn't get the 14 day pass either.

[Peench]

For real?!? What the heck? That's really weird. I wonder if they stopped throwing them in there.

Well, for $15 for a month (or less if you sign up for longer) it is still a great deal.

[KEEZY]

Boooooooooooooooo.

Well, it finally got its shit together, and is now charging. I plugged it in when told to, and it hung on that charing screen for a while. Then it just went black, so I hit play and it kicked on and was reconnized by the computer. Interesting.

[KEEZY]

Hey... it sync'd automagically, that won't kill all the stuff that came pre-loaded will it?

[Peench]

Nope, all that crizzap will still be on it. You can also set it to synch manually. I had to set it to manual b/c it would have killed itself trying to put 100 MB worth of music on itself! haha.

Good to hear you're up and running (for the most part) now!

All the preloaded crap made me wanna stab my eyes out with sticks.

[KEEZY]

Oh man... I'm downloading so much music. It's insane.

[MadBryan]

Its much better at getting album covers than itunes is. I like the album covers

[Crippler]

I totally erased all of the preloaded content and then sync'd the Zune. There are a few sites out there that have the preloaded content for downlaod if you really must have it. The pass is awesome. I had it for 2 months and downloaded so much music. If they would offer a yearly plan like Live. I would do it.

[Serren]

I found my 14 day pass inside the inner box thing. Crippler, were you the one that mentioned that trick about keeping the pass downloads forever?

[KEEZY]

Oh heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy it's me again, with another #$@#%@#$ Zune problem.

So now, the DRM isn't working and I'm getting error code 10065. Basically I can't play any of the music from the Zune marketplace and actually I can't even log in. The MS fix they suggest has you going to a website to click an update button. Too bad it's greyed out.

If I don't get this fixed within the hour I'm returning the Zune. These problems are absurd. Get your shit together MS.

I would hate to see you miss out on the Zune sweetness! It's a great player and I am sorry to hear that you have had so many probs with it. I haven't had a spec of trouble with mine, so maybe you just have a bum unit. Either that or something in your Zune marketplace software is screwy. That would be my guess, since you can't log in. I am sure that you have already done it, but if not, uninstall it, run a registry cleaner (QuickClean) and then clean install a new copy of the most recent version. I hear that software is a little twitchy, but it has been fine for my limited use. I use it exclusively to sync and not for downloads and such. Good luck, Keez!

[MadBryan]

Try this fix, dude http://www.zunmp3player.com/help/can...0065-resolved/ I hope you resolve your problem and take a chill pill. I personally felt the same way when i was trying to use my ipods on my windows machine. (I realize this is what youve been trying but it tells you how to fix the "greyed" upgrade button)
