Comes With Music question

If I get a comes with music handset and save the tracks to my memory card, if I put that card in a different handset, will I be able to play the music?
Thanks

Your "Comes with Music" account and the tracks will be tied to the phone's IMEI number, tracks won't play on other mobile devices. I don't know if you get permission to use the tracks on any other devices (such as a PC) or not, though I would imagine not as they are provided free to the phone.
You won't even be able to transfer your music to another phone unless you buy another "Comes with Music" phone or if your phone is replaced under warranty.

  • Question about Comes With Music in the UK

    Ever since I heard about the service, I was quite interested in getting a Comes With Music device on contract, but looking for one is like finding a needle in a haystack.
    Ideally, I would like to stay with O2, but they don't seem to offer contracts with Comes With Music, from what I can tell. I called their sales team four times to try and find out and pretty much got a different answer every time, although the one person who did seem to know what he was talking about gave a definitive "no".
    Other than that, I'm finding it impossible to find deals. I know Orange do the 32GB X6, because a friend of mine has this contract (not that I've found anything about it online), and the Nokia site itself offers the 5800 CWM with T-Mobile. Like I said though, I'd rather stick with O2 if possible, because I've always had excellent signal from them.
    So basically, does anyone have any information that may help me? I'm starting to think the reason CWM isn't doing well over here is because nobody really knows about it and because if you do find out about it, it's virtually impossible to find a contract.

    Your only option for getting a CwM phone on O2 is to see what places like carphone warehouse and phones 4u have to offer.
    O2 have refused to sell CwM phones directly in the past.
    Instead of paying more for a CwM phone you may want to consider spotify premium instead. It's £10 per month and it allows you to either stream music or download for use on the phone.
    The X6 32gb CwM has become quite hard to find since the cheaper 16gb model (without CwM) appeared. Originally it was exclusive to phones 4u but didn't sell well due to it's overly high price.

  • 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.

  • 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..

  • 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.

  • What is PINless comes with music activation ? Plea...

    ok, so  the new firmware v30 gives Nokia N86 users the benefit of a so called PINless activation possibility for" comes with music" service. what is that and how to use it?? Thank you in advance
    nokia N80-->nokia N82-->nokia N86

    Comes WIth Music PINs are not actually linked to the device IMEI.
    The Comes With Music service used a database of the IMEI numbers of all phones sold as part of CWM packages, when you begin the process of creating a CWM account, a check is made via the internet that your IMEI is on the CWM database (this is why you cannot proceed with registration via PC unless you connect the phone by USB cable). Once the check is made, you have the choice to create a new account or add your CWM subscription to an  existing Nokia Music account. THe third and final stage is where the PIN number is requested.
    Your device IMEI is validated well before you enter the PIN, the PIN is an additional security measure.

  • Nokia 5800XM navigation edition, comes with music?

    So my question is, is the nokia 5800XM navigation edition supposed to come with comes with music too?
    I have bought the navigation edition and there is no comes with music registration code in the package.
    Thanks in advance

    The link below shows all Comes With Music compatible phones. This does not mean that the phones automatically include a Comes With Music subscription. You have to check the box if there is a sticker that indicates the phone contains the subscription.

  • 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

  • Nokia N96 - "Comes With Music" - Does iiiiit?

    I have a question for my N96 about the "Comes With Music" feature. I have downloaded several songs from this site through my phone and i can play them fine, the only problem is the sole reason for downloading them was to use them for message alerts and mainly ringtones but they won't allow this. After i've paid for these tracks i think it's highly unfair that I cannot use them for my own personal use as a riongtone or such like. I can understand not being able to send them to others or burn them due to the copyrights and licences but not even using them as a ringtone! It's a joke in my opinion. Can anyone help me with this? Is there a way around it or can you recommend a decent ringtone website that doesn't rip you off too much?

    It's the same with DRM protected music from most sites. The licence allows you to use it for music only, not for public broadcast (i.e. a ringtone).
    Any music bought from the nokia music store can be burnt to a CD. Once on a CD it can be ripped back to a PC removing the DRM. This allows you to do anything with your music.
    The "comes with music" service is something completely different. This is where you get totally free music from the nokia music store for a year but it can't be burnt to a CD.
    To get that service you have to buy a "come with music" model. At the moment only the 5310 and N95 8GB are available with this service and only in select countries.

  • 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.

  • 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).

  • 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

    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
    £33.99 12 months for £33.99

  • Keeping and using the comes with music license onc...

    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.
