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!

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 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

  • 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

  • Comes with music its renewal time

    i have only 5 days now before my years free downloads come to an end. it looks like i can only sign up to it again by buying a new phone. is this true?

    The renewal process is far from 'green'. Nokia are asking us to purchase new handsets and replace perfectly good ones. What's worse is the fact that the Comes With Music handset range has not changed much since the service was introduced a little over a year ago. Unless I pay a lot more for a high end phone, I will be replacing my Nokia 5310 with a Nokia 5310!!! Plus, I cannot sell on the new phone because it is tied into the CWM account.
    As a former employee of Nokia, I know they like to trumpet eco-friendliness. This is utterly wasteful.
    Are you listening Nokia?
    My CWM account runs out today. You can sell me an X6 for the price of a 5310 if you like but ideally I'd like a simple resubscription fee with no associated harm to the planet.

  • Comes With Music - Doesn't Work

    Can anyone tell me how I can actually use the service I have paid for? Every time I try to join up, the Nokia Music Store application crashes. If I try and sign in to the Nokia Music Store with the phone connected, it crashes. The PC suite works fine by the way and the Music Store works fine without the phone connected as I paid for a track to make sure it worked.
    I have a 5310 and Windows Vista with the latest version of the Music Store software and have followed the instructions to the letter over and over.
    Apparantly I can sign up from my device only there is no Music Store application on my phone. I have been through the help and support over and over again and have been through every menu and option on the phone but what I have on my phone is not what the support pages show.
    And yes, the phone was bought specifically as part of a Comes With Music package. So all-in-all I am not impressed and unless I can get a solution within the next 2 days the phone will be going back for a full refund as I have not received the product, or the service, that I have paid for.

  • Can't register pc for comes with music.

    I've got a comes with music subscription that started in August.
    I recently upgraded my pc to Windows 7 and have come to register this pc with Nokia, but I keep getting error pages (no specific message given, just an error).  Do I have to wait 90 days from opening my account (which is 3+ weeks away) or is the service just down?
    Disappointing and it goes to show why there hasn't been mass adoption of this DRM-ridden product.

    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..

  • Using a different handset for Comes with music?

    Could i register the N95 to use the free music instead of the 5800?

  • Comes with music on Nokia 5310 just bought Nokia 5...

    I have a 5310 comes with music but have just bought a 5800 and was wondering is there any way I can get the music on my 5800, can I change registration from the 5310 to the 5800 ? I have only had the 5310 a few days so I am not sure if there is a way to do this, thank you for any help or advice..

    In fact, there are limited circumstances in which you can transfer your account to another phone, but I'm afraid it still doesn't help in this case.
    If you buy another Comes With Music phone (it has to come from a Comes With Music sales box, not just any one of the supported models) then you can transfer your existing account to it instead of using the PIN code with it to create a new account. At the moment, that means you could upgrade to an N95 8Gb-CWM or an N96-CWM. Nokia did say that 5800XM-CWMs would be available , but I believe thety have not yet started.
    This service is about to be launched in quite a lot of European countries, including France.

  • Comes With Music - "Unable to acquire license" err...

    I have a N97 with Comes With Music. Since the past week, I have been unable to download tracks from the Music Store. I log in to my CWM account as usual, but everytime i click on the download button after selecting a track, it just gives me the error message "Unable to acquire license". 
    Anyone else experience this problem? How do I fix this?

    Provided that your new device is a Comes With Music-compatible device, you can have your account transferred to the new device, you need to contact your local Nokia Care helpline and ask for the registered device to be changed. You will need to provide your music store username, the old IMEI number and the new IMEI number.

  • Comes With Music membership extension

    I have been a satisfied (most of the time) subscriber to Comes With Music membership (UK) since 26 Ocbober 1969. On 26 September 2010 I got an e-mail from "The Comes With Music team" ([email protected]) which I have pasted below.

    Hi tonyarro,
    Your Comes With Music membership is about to end on 26/10/2010. To continue getting millions of free tracks from Nokia Music Store, you just need to renew your membership by buying a new Comes With Music edition mobile. There's no need to wait - when you renew, your new membership period is added onto the time you've got left on your current membership. Click here to renew now.
    What's more, there are exclusive offers on new Comes With Music edition mobiles, just for members. Take a look at all the latest deals here.
    Remember, even if you don't renew, you keep all the music you've downloaded so far and can continue playing it on your registered Comes With Music mobile and PC. But after 26/10/2010 you'll have to pay for any new music you download. So don't miss out on all the new releases or classics from the massive Nokia Music Store catalogue - renew today!
    All the best,
    The Comes With Music team
    -------------unquote
    So I "needed" to buy a new mobile. The "exclusive offers" were two choices, a 5800 at UK Pounds 249 or a N97 mini at UK Pounds 409. I already use a 5800 and the N97 costs more than I care to pay for a 'phone.
    By accident, I discovered that T-mobile UK are currently selling a PAYG 5230 Navi CWM at UK Pounds 99.99. Quite a bargain, so I bought one.
    Now I am going round in circles on the Nokia/Ovi websites and in Nokia Ovi Player on my PC trying to enter the activation pin. All the instructions no longer work with the current Player. The only working option is to create a new account and allow my present account to expire. I am reluctant to do this because it seems likely that I will also have to buy a new PC if I want to keep and play the music files that I have already downloaded (only 61.2GB).
    In the process of going round in circles I discovered a hidden option in the Nokia Ovi Player menu - Account/Music Account/Extend. I could have bought a 12 month extension to my existing membership for only £34.99! I didn't "need" to buy a new mobile at all! No wonder the "Comes with Music team" don't have a return e-mail address if they just exist to drive sales by telling lies!
    Anyway, I already have the new mobile and the CWM activation PIN. I realise that many forum members have more desparate problems than mine, but can someone on the staff please advise me how to extend my existing membership account using the PIN and new 'phone that I have already paid for?
    Tony.

    Sorry, I got it slightly wrong, it's £33.99, not £34.99. The whereabouts are in my previous posting. To repeat, within Nokia Ovi Player, on the top line click on account, then music account, then on the Extend green button and the message below appears. This might only appear when your subscription is due to expire within one month or has expired less than one month ago. This is obviously from the UK music store, (GB pounds) I don't know whether it is available in other Nokia territories. I haven't tried it - I found it too late. I now have a 'phone that I didn't really want and no access to transfer my existing music collection back and forward to my old 'phone or my new 'phone. This is by following the advice of the 'Nokia music team'. New 'phone = new account = new computer.
    Extend your subscription
    You can buy an extension here
    £3.50 1 months for £3.50
    £9.99 3 months for £9.99
    £17.99 6 months for £17.99

    if i buy a comes with music phone, but the online service isn't yet available to my country, can i keep the license and use it once the service is available to my country?

    Hi,
    Most of the time, the reason behind this issue is that a user has 2 services subscribed into, a Comes With Music service and a Nokia Music Store Service. If you sign up and you are being charged, that indicates that you are on the Nokia Music Store.
    The best way to make sure that you are logging in to the correct service, make sure to click on the Comes With Music button and then click sign in. If it so happens that after doing so, you are still being charged, it could be that the username and password for your Comes With Music account is different. 
    You can ask Nokia Careline to assist you in retreiving these information. You would then receive it thru email with the correct username and the temporary password. The information you need to provide the representative for them to be able to pull up your account detail are:
    *IMEI
    *E-mail address
    *Mobile Number
    Hope this helps.

  • Comes With Music - Having a Problem

    Hi, I recently bought a Comes With music phone and managed to set it up fine and add music to the phone.
    Yesterday i placed my memory card into another persons phone which was the same model (nokia 5310) and when i placed it back into my phone i could not get the music to play again (something about a reactivation key).
    I then took all the music off my phone and tried again to put music on it and then was a transferring error each time i tried.
    I then put it the person with the same model of phone as me and tried and it was sending music to that.
    Now this morning i have tried with both phones and neither of then will work.
    Any help for this problem would be appreciated .

    Hi try to format the memory card in your 5310 (In 5310, Menu > Gallery > memory card. Select Options > Format memory card)
    Then try to sync your music again from your PC with Nokia Music (make sure date and time on your PC and phone is correct first)
    You cannot use the memory card in any other phone that your Comes With Music phone as the music is tied to your phone and PC

  • 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

  • 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 ??

    Solved!

    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 and (Finnish) Music Store

    I have a Nokia N97 mini Comes With Music. There was an upgrade in Finnish Music Store in yesterday (09.09.2010). After that, I can not choose free downloads anymore. Somehow the "Comes With Music" button has disappeared, and every mp3 has a price. I tried to re-join to Ovi Music Unlimited but the client replies that I already have the Comes With Music rights. Any suggestions?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have had this exact same problem since mid-August some time. Been in contact with the Swedish Nokia Care people and they basically escalated it to some technicians in India. Still waiting for some form of response from them.
    Also, can you transfer songs from OVI Music (the software I mean) to your phone? Because I can't do that either (I'm guessing because it requires that I access my account and get the DRM license - but like you pointed out, every mp3 has a price and there are no re-downloads available in my account anymore).
    This is extremely frustrating. Sometime in June or July was the last time I could transfer songs from my computer to the phone (well, stuff I've ripped from my own CDs work fine of course, as well as songs that I've had on my phone prior to the CMW-MU switch).
