Preinstalled songs cannot be played

Hello All,
Last night I've updated my Nokia 5800 firmware to the v20.0.012 but I am surprised to see that now I am unable to play the preinstalled songs available on my device...
Can anyone let me know whats wrongs!!!!!!!!!!!!
Regards,
rohit

Hi,
You have to take the phone to the nearest nokia care centre and they'll get it enabled.
The fact is that these songs and videos are protected and they can be played only in the original device. You cannot send and play these on other devices.Now that you updated the firmware the songs has got locked , so you need to unlock them.

Error: this song cannot be played because the original file cannot be found

I recently purchased a new computer and restored my music to the new computer. Although all of my songs are being displayed in the itunes library only half will play. When I try to play the remaining songs I get a message that says "this song cannot be played because the original file cannot be found". I'm at a loss and need help because all of the songs are in the same folder.

Hi
I've pretty much got exactly the same problem. We've just replaced our old computer with a laptop and I've transferred my iTunes library over but I can't open almost all of my songs as "the original file couldn't be found." I've tried the "locate" prompt but that gives me so many different options, all to no avail. However, I have added a few new CDs since transferring the library to the laptop and they open up without any problems.
Can anyone help? I've got to go through all of this again soon as my daughters both have ipods as well!

TS1389 Purchased song not allowed to play on my iMac. SC Info folder removed, still the song cannot be played.

One song is not allowed to play on my iMac, I'm prompted to authorize the iMac. SC Info folder removed, still the song cannot be played. Mac OS 10.8.5 !!!

Got it! Look at the information of the song (right click in your itunes library) and if you don't see yourself as a buyer of the song, you have to delete the song and download it from the store again.

I keep getting error message saying Song Cannot be Played on ipod

I am able to download my cd's and even got one song downloaded from itunes. When I purchase a song I keep getting a message saying that that song was not downloaded to teh iPod, since it cannot be played on that iPod. I also cannot play the song in my library. I checked to be sure the parental controls were not on - and that's ok. i also deleted and re-loaded iTunes twice!

Song Cannot Be Played Because Original File Cannot Be Found

I transferred my iTunes collection to my laptop using my iPod and there are several songs that I cannot play because it says song cannot be located and it asks me to locate the song on my computer. This is a big pain because it's entire CDs. Is there any way to fix this other than going song by song? I don't really have the time to do that. Thanks.

What does it mean when a previously working song "cannot be played on this ipod"

I recently went to listen to a specific song on my iPod and found that it was no longer there. So I synched my iPod with my iTunes and got this message: "'Give Me your Hand' was not copied to the iPod 'My iPod' because it cannot be played on this iPod"
This song works perfectly fine on my iTunes and has worked on my iPod in the past. I also purchased the song straight from iTunes not any outside source.
Can any one explain why this no longer works?

Solution may be found if you search in the "More Like This" section over in the right column.

I changed my ITUNES login and now all my older songs cannot be played.

So i changed my login (email address) and frankly deleted it entirely bc I got a divorce and it had my married name in the email. So i went through all the process of changing my email and also my itunes account login, and everything. Also...i changed jobs, and so I cannot access my itunes from that computer. THANKFULLY I backed up all my itunes from that OLD login. But when i downloaded it to my new computer it shows up but an error pops up and says...I am not authrized to play this song from this computer and shows my email and asks for my password and when i put it in it doesnt work. I reactivated my old email address but its still not working. WHAT SHOULD I DO? I have literally tried EVERYTHING!

*So i changed my login (email address)*
So you created a new iTunes account?
No need and probably shouldn't do that. You can update everything with your new info. However, the songs you previously purchased are still going to use the old login to authorize them.
If you select one, right click - get info, you need to use the AppleID that is shown on the Info tab.
But when i downloaded it to my new computer it shows up but an error pops up and says...I am not authrized to play this song from this computer and shows my email and asks for my password and when i put it in it doesnt work. I
Are you using the old email address and the old password?

Some songs cannot be played due to "lack of computer's authorisation"

Hi,
I've purchased an album from itunes store. But few (only few) songs are unable to be played due to "lack of authorisation of my computer".
When I try to authorise it, I'm said that the computer is already authorised. The songs are still unable to be played. I tried to unauthorised
the computer and authorise it again, without any result.When I try to play these songs by player other than itunes, there's silence. Other
songs from the album play normally. Anyone had something like that? I would be very grateful for help.

Itunes song cannot be played because original file cannot be found? but i just downloaded the song 1 week ago from cd

I imprted music in to my itunes librabry a little over a week ago, today I am trying to play the music and I am getting a locate button telling me that the original file cannot be found? What do I do?

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .
OR
Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the entry for the missing track from your iTunes library, close and then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find a download link for your track there.
While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unchecked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the "Report a problem" links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

Why do I get the message " 'Song Tiltle' was not copied to iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod"

I got a new gen iPod Classic (160G) for Christmas, purchased Bob Marley's Album "Legend" and when I sync the playlist to the iPod I get an error message saying this one song cannot be played on this iPod. What gives? Is it something about "I Shot the Sheriff" that my iPod has a moral disagreement with? It had no issue importing and installing Body Count's "Kop Killa"...I'm confounded by this issue; Please, Someone, Help!

Not really likely, is it?
First of all, look on the iPod to see if the song is actually on there. (The last Sync of my Classic resulted in "song not copied... because it cannot be found." The song had previously been on the iPod. I checked and despite the fact that iTunes could not find the file, the song was still on my iPod. I checked the folder and the song was exactly where t was supposed to be. So I simply set iTunes to find it again. What happened? I don't know, iTunes simply threw a wobbly!)
Second, try another Sync. Does this change anything? If the song was on the iPod, does a second Sync remove the message? If the song was not on the iPod after the first Sync, does the second one put it on there?
What happens?

I get a message saying "song" cannot be used becaues original source cannot be found?

I started getting a message saying some of my songs cannot be played because the original source cannot be found. Do you want to locate it?

ITunes songs won't play -- "original file can't be found."

Hi,
When I click on any song, regardless of how I got it (CD, download from internet, etc.), it tells me that the song cannot be played because the original file cannot be found. It asks me whether I want to look up the file, and when I click yes, the Temp folder of iTunes opens. Any ideas? These songs used to play just fine.

Well, I tried that, and I was able to play the song (so thanks!), but if that's the only way I can play my songs it's going to be very cumbersome to listen to music -- I'll have to search through several folders and choose the song within that folder every single time I want a new song. That's not a feasible way for me to have my music, though. Do you know how I can just get iTunes to find the song automatically the way it used to?

TS1424 I keep getting the message (song name) was not copied to IPod Ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod. Could someone tell me what this means? I have never had this problem.

Hi, I have been trying to down load some music to my Ipod. I keep getting the message: (Song name) was not copied to IPod IPod because it cannot be played on this I pod.
Can anybody help? I have never had this problem before.

Song was not copied to iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod

i copied a song to a folder from the internet then added the folder to itunes. Then when i try to put the song on my iPod nano i get the message (song title) was not copied to the iPod "Mike's iPod" because it cannot be played on this iPod. i can play the entire song on the itunes library though, and there is a little wave icon thing next to the song title. How can I make it where I can copy this song to the iPod?

Ok, I tried changing the file format and when I select the song and go to the advanced menu it says convert selection to... but the text isnt selectable but is when I select a different song. I guess this means its protected from being converted? If so is there anything else I can do to be able to get it onto my iPod?
Also does it matter what format I try to convert it too?

Songs "not copied to the ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod"

After having my ipod stolen i purchased a new Ipod classic. When syncing my music to my ipod i get an error on a number of songs, "not copied to ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod." This did not happen with my old ipod which i purchased just one year prior. Why can these songs not be played on my new ipod?

"I bought this song on iTunes - wrote the song to CD - made an MP3. Then tried to copy the song (MP3) to my Nano."
Was there some particular reason you did this? I'm just curious as to why you didn't leave it as an AAC file.
Do you still have the original downloaded AAC file and does this play on the iPod ok?
