5800 Comes with Music [PIN/Activation code] is the...

OK - bit of background first
Some months back I brought a 5800 that did not 'COME WITH MUSIC' - I've got it all set up nicely, got all the apps I wanted installed, email settings correct, games etc etc
Recently - just for fun - I entered a couple of codes on the Pepsi ringpull promotion to win a 5800 'Comes with Music' - & guess what, got an email saying I've actually won !!! (haven't got it yet though)
Now I know I can't use the PIN/Activation code from the 5800 'comes with music' phone with my 'older' 5800 (I believe the code is 'locked' to the IMEA of the phone or something like that - can any1 confirm this ??) - but what I'd like to know is how long have I got before the activation code is 'invalid'.
What I mean is that IF I don't use it then my 12months 'free download' subscription will not start - but if I leave it for - say a year - will the code become invalid & I lose out on all those lovely free downloads ??
The way I'm thinking is that I could keep the new one locked away & if/when my present phone gets too badly damaged, or the screen get's scratched, then I can 'backup everything to PC' (Nokia Suite) & reload it into the new one THEN use the activation code & get a years free download
Or would it be better to transfer from the old phone to the new phone now - use that with my free downloads & 'factory reset' my old phone & sell it on/recycle it ??

OK so no answer - however since I've now got the new phone, I can answer my own question
There is only 2 Months from recieving (buying) the phone before the 'Comes with Music' voucher is made invalid

Comes With Music Pin Code

How do I retrieve my comes with music pin code if I have lost it?

What is the circumstance of the error? Have you changed something related in the PC or perhaps done a system restore to a previous date? Has anything happened to the phone like a software update?
It appears for whatever reason that your PC and/or phone is not being recognised as a CWM device. If the phone is at fault, formatting the memory card usually helps. I'm not sure what could be causing the issue if it is PC-related, but perhaps try this (it is actually the solution for a different issue, but it might work):
If you are using Windows XP 32/64:
Uninstall the Nokia Music application. Once removed from the PC, delete or rename the MDataStore.db3 file in C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Nokia\Nokia Data Store\DataBase. Then reinstall the Nokia Music client again and attempt to download the music content.
If your are using Windows Vista 32/64:
Uninstall the Nokia Music application. Once removed from the PC, delete or rename the MDataStore.db3 file in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Nokia\Nokia Data Store\DataBase. Then reinstall the Nokia Music client again and attempt to download the music content.

5800 Comes With Music - library not refreshing!!

Hi everyone, I recently got a 5800 Comes With Music phone and registered the phone within the Music Store. I don't have a PC I can use so I wanted to use the phone to download music. I managed to download a couple of tracks and they were stored in my music library when I chose the 'Refresh Library' option. However, the next batch of songs I downloaded show as complete in the 'My Downloads' section but when I go into my music library and try to refresh it, it just says '0 Files Added'. Why is this? I'm not doing anything different to what I did the first time, yet whatever I try, I can't add the latest downloads to the library. It's driving me mad!! Has anyone had the same problem? Am I missing a step - I'm literally selecting download, waiting for it to complete then going to the library and choosing refresh.
Thanks!

Hey man, yh i'm afraid i'm having the same sort of problem as you.
I've bought and downloaded new songs off of the internet and have tried to put them onto my phone with little success.
Originally I got all but 1 song off the album into my library, through bluetooth, but when i came to play them later in the day (even though they were working earlier) they couldn't find the files and therefore were useless.
I tried, when I got home, to put them on later through the applications you download through your PC (like Nokia Suite and Nokia Music) and seemed to get them on fine but when I looked for them in my library they weren't there.
It seems like they are happy for you to put it on to your phone so that you can find the file in File Manager but won't let you put it in your library.
Sorry I couldn't give you any help but I thought it would be a good idea to put my problem up on here as well.
Good Luck mate

NOKIA X6 16GB AND COME WITH MUSIC PIN

Recently I purchased a Nokia X6 16 GB phone from SLOT SYSTEMS, Lagos Nigeria but my device does not have a come with music activation PIN and the dealer told me the model does not come with such facility. Is this correct or I have been cheated. What are the options available to me to get this PIN?

Does it say come with music on the box?
If it didn't say it on the box then you have the more common (and lower priced) standard X6 sales package. It does not come with free music and the service cannot be added to it.
If it did say it then you should have got the pin and you'll need to complain to the dealer again. If they won't help you complain to nokia care (if they operate in your county) or seek legal advice. Also keep in mind that your phone may have been imported from another country so CwM may not actually be available in your country.

You can write to nokia from its official site nokia.com by pressing the 'contact us' link. People over there will definitely help you.

Comes with Music - Expired 3 days into 365 days

We received a X6 32 with 1 year free Comes with Music
On going back into the Music store it asked me to register the PIN again, only to be told that although I have 362 days left, the PIN is not longer valid
I fear this could have come about from us putting another SIM card in the phone.
Could this be the reason, and what is the solution?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I registered when it had the other sim in.
Problem was the sim (new sim) with new phone took so long to be activated, (took 5 days !!) that I tried my sim from my Blackberry (the X6 is my wifes) to see if the actualy phone worked. During that time while I had my sim in her phone, I tested "Comes with Music" and downloaded a few songs (successfully)
When her sim eventually came active, we tried downloading songs again, and was then asked to register again. And then encountered the problem.

Comes with Music help

We purchased Nokia 5310 xpress music for our daughters birthday. When she logs in to comes with music it wants to you pay to download music. She has a years pre-paid subscription. How can we resolve this. Any help please. Thank you.

Have you followed the instructions to the letter on the in-box come with music paperwork? It also contains your pin code for accessing the service. If the leaflet is missing see the question below.
Are you certain that you've bought the correct version in the comes with music branded box and not the standard version? If it's not comes with music branded then you have bought the standard model by mistake. If it is branded but the paperwork is missing then you need to speak to the retailer.
If you are certain that you have the correct model and the service isn't accepting your pin code from the comes with music paper work then you need to call nokia care.

Using a different handset for Comes with music?

I ve just received my upgrade a 5800 comes with music edition,my wife has a n95 8gb normal edition and i was wondering whether i could let her have the code for the free music as she d make more use of it than me?
Could i register the N95 to use the free music instead of the 5800?

Hi,
you can also try to recover your content from the Music Vault My Account > Music Vault. If the 'Change registered device' option is greyed out, this means that you have changed either your PC or mobile within the specified 90 days. If the application has been installed but the application updates have not been accepted, download the latest version to be sure that it is compatible with Comes With Music.
hope this answers your question..

N8 Comes With Music Downloads

I first had a 5800 Comes With Music. This was good, I downloaded the songs I wanted, no problem. I then progressed onto an N8. Transferring the music-while I still had my Comes With Music contract-was fine, however, I had to verify that every song was indeed mine, proving this with every single song. I then had my phone put in for repair, during which time the circuit board was replaced, effectively branding it a new phone. When I try to transfer my music now-the contract is over-it says that I can't as this is no longer my Comes With Music device. I have now lost over 1000 songs! Is there any way to right this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

@jk95 - Try if you can change your registered mobile from Music account settings in Music player; Account > Music account > Registered devices.
If not, contact local Nokia Care with your Nokia Music username and IMEI (serial number) of your device. You can check contact details behind Contact us (or Contact support) link up right in this page.

Suplied activating pin comes with music not valid ...

Hi there,
Just picked up a brand new X6.
When I try to activate my one year free "comes with music" theres a message saying my pin is not valid for this region..
I live in the Netherlands, surely that can't be the problem :-)
Any feedback would be nice.
O and yes I have entered the correct pin, multiple times I must say..
Thanks in advance
M

ok i just got the solution:
The Ovi Player, when installing, sometimes defaults to a different Ovi Music store than the one selected. Instead the installer selects the regional settings from the Operating System and sets the Ovi Music Store to that country. If this is the case, manually select the store of the country you wish to log in to.
Run the following command:
Start > Run > oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=en-GB
The en-GB needs to be replaced with the code for the region that you want to be pointed at. See below for all the correct URI commands:
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=en-GB
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=fr-FR
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=de-DE
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=it-IT
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=es-ES
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=nl-NL
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=en-IE
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=fi-FI
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=sv-SE
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=da-DK
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=en-AU
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=zh-SG
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=pt-pt
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=nb-no
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=ar-AE
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=de-CH
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=de-AT
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=es-MX
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=pt-BR
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=af-ZA
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=pl-PL
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=hi-IN
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=ms-MY
oviplayer://musicplayer/?setTerritory=ru-RU
Once you’ve got the corresponding URI:
For Windows XP, Vista Business/Enterprise and Windows 7 users:
* Start/Orb > Run
* Copy the URI into the run box and then Enter.
* Ovi Music Player should launch (or activate, if it’s already running).
* Wait a few seconds and you should find the Ovi Player now directs to the correct store and, on restart, your homepage will be that store.
* If you see 'No internet connection...' message, click on the Home button and wait for the new page to load.
* Even after doing this, you are not able to access the LIVE store, delete the MDataStore.db3 file and start Ovi Music Player again.
* On the start-up screen, select correct country location
For me its working now ....though its the german store its fine

Comes with music activation code expired in 3 mont...

I got a N97 mini in December, and the phone came with the comes with music music store thing.
Now I've used it with a good outcome for three months but now the nokia music store doesn't recognize my account as a comes with music account. I have tried to re-enter the code but it always says that my code has expired..
So my one year of free music was actually three months.
I can't find a solution for this. Anyone?
Thanks

i got mu phone on contract last month and the comes with music voucher number comes up invalied on the back of the voucher it says it ran out three mnths before i got the phone but my network says it still works which it doesnt what am i suppossed to do about this i mean they are selling the phones and advertising that it comes with a £20 free music voucher that when you get it it doesnt work i think nokia need to get their act toghther and sort it out i also want my £20 voucher.

Nokia 5530 comes with music? were is this pin code...

Got it for xmas and it says COMES WITH MUSIC i only got the warranty info instruction manual ovi disk and vodafone`s sim package no scratchcard or anythhing?!

Just sent this.
I purchased a Nokia 5530 from yourselves on the back of Nokia's Comes With Music promotion. On their website, they state in multiple places that this phone is part of that promotion. They even explicitly state that phones that are compatible with the service and are bought from Carphone Warehouse (http://www.nokiamusic.co.uk/#/faq/) are part if the CWM service. Yet, there was no CWM literature in the phone's box nor was their the PIN number necessary for the service. I contacted the local store and was told, categorically, that Nokia's information was incorrect and that the CWM service is exclusive to Phones4U. This is in direct contravention of the Nokia's own information, the people running the service.
I am not the only one to have this problem. Many dissastisified customers have posted to the Nokia's support forums about this. Some bought phones from you, actually recieved the PIN number that they were promised only to have it rejected by Nokia's Music Store.
What is going on, what is the deal here. Are you operating a regional thing, customers in some areas get the service, other's don't. If you buy from a shop you get an invalid pin, if you buy through the website you get no pin at all?
Let's see how they respond.

Comes with music 5800

when i bought my phone on contract it was advertised as comes with music on uk tv. now 4 months later im told that unless im with a certain contractor ,ie orange and on payg, i cant have comes with music..this is false advertising and nokia should be held accountable...and its also asking for a pin number..why would this be when only certain phones are meant to work with comes with music..can anyone help as ive been on the phone for 30 mins t tech team,who seem reluctant to deal with calls.and help desk just fob you off.

I bought my nokia 5800 March 30th 2009. I really loved it not until now. 2 weeks ago, videos were not playing... I'm not sure how that it happened. It was just pitch black with no sound. But it i can still download songs and play them.
Last Saturday, July 4th, I went to Nokia Center at Wheelock Place to get it fixed. I was told that he needs to format my phone as the phone got corrupted. I backed up my phone so he can do what he things needs to be done. I asked if it's safe to format my phone as I have this fear that the music I downloaded won't play anymore... He told me that I can call Nokia Care anytime for help. So he formated my phone and it fixed it. Videos are now playing... On my way home, the music I downloaded were no longer playing. It really upset me. I tied to download from Nokia store and was still able to, but all the downloaded music won't play. I waited for Monday to call the nokia care for assistance. This morning I called the nokia care and in verbatim, the customer care personnel said ,
"We apologize for that experience. Now since you agreed to format your phone, all the data have been erased and so now, you have to purchase a new license in order for the downloaded music to play."
What??? Nokia was bragging a 1year agreement and even advertized that the downloaded music can be kept after the 1 year!!! (Literally YES KEEP IT, but don't play it!) Now what made me even more mad is when the rep told me that it's "MY FAULT" since my phone was reset!!! Duh?! I didn't even initiate the reset, come to think of it.
In the first place, it was not my fault that the video player of my phone got corrupted. 2nd, the nokia repair center suggested that formatting the phone will fix the trouble (video not playing). 3rd, I bought the phone because of how the ad was delivered to the public. I honestly thought it was a good buy but now i'm starting to think all is a sham.

Comes With Music / Nokia 5800 problems downloading...

I've just got a new 5800 with Comes With Music and I'm having lots of problems! Hopefully you can help?!
Problem 1 - the main problem! Downloads don't add to phone's music library
The main problem is with downloading songs directly using my phone. Songs I download (using the mobile, not the PC) don't get added to my music library, and refreshing the music library dowsn't help. If I go to the music store, select 'options' and 'downloads' I can see a list of all the songs I've downloaded. If I select 'open' I can play the songs (one at a time), but they don't get added to the music library. If I press 'delete', I'm told 'File not found'. When I connect to my PC, I can't see these songs using the Nokia Music software, so can't transfer them to the PC. All very strange. Any ideas for how I can get these songs to add to the library?
Problem 2 - Nokia Music software
This is just irritating rather than anything else. When I plug my phone to my PC and use Nokia Music, the little phone icon has the caption 'Nokia N95'. But the phone I've connected is a 5800! My old phone was an N95...
At first this meant I couldn't sign up to CWM using my pin, because I was told it isn't compatible with this phone. So I had to sign up using the phone rather than the PC, and then use the log-in details on the PC to access music. This has worked and means I can download songs to my PC and transfer them to my phone, but it was a pain to get there.
Problem 3: Nokia Music website doesn't work
To add insult to injury, when I look for some help on the nokiamusic.co.uk website I'm told I need a new flash player. So I download the new flash playe, and I'm still told I need a new flash player. Brilliant. Incidentally, at the bottom of the page it says"Click here if you're quite sure to have Flash Player installed" which is gramatically a lot of nonsense.
I've always got on well with Nokia, but frankly I've had a nightmare week trying to get this new phone up and running and I'm very disappointed with them. The help-line isn't much use either. Anyway, any help on the above would be really greatfully received.
Ryan

Hi!
For your first problem, are you accessing Nokia Music Store on your mobile through the webbrowser or via the application in Music Menu? If you are using the web browser, try using the application.
If you are using the application already, have you tried with different access points? (i.e. WLAN, different operator interet access points) Also make sure that you have a memorycard in your phone which is compatible with the device, might be worth trying to re-format it and then try again?
For your third problem, have you tried to access nokia music store through Nokia Music program on your PC? (Click on Store tab). And which browser are you currenlty using to access it?
Cheers,
elin
