Who else wants MP3's to Music Store?

Lets make this the longest thread in this section. Sticky if possible
Here was my last thread in which I needed help in downloading music.
/t5/Music/quot-Download-failed-quot-problem-in-Ovi-Player/td-p/627409
DRM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management
There's the reason why I'm so angry. My system indeed didn't have WMP and I don't want to play my music with sluggish Ovi Player, but we are given no choise. I can't take the music to my car either.
I've come to conclusion that I rather download my music illegaly than download these low quality DRM protected music-like files from Nokia. It's not what I paid for. Files should be mine without restrictions after I download them.
Nokia must do the right thing and bring MP3's to Music Store and stop underestimating it's customers.

Hi. I like WMP as I use it to 'find album info' and put album art on albums before drag and drop to phone, gives me correct listings and a good appearance. As for the actual music , just rip or download mp3's onto computer and transfer
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

  • Want to access iTunes music store but not in a 'valid' country

    Hi, I'd really appreciate any help anyone can offer. I want to be able to buy music and videos for my new iPod and I have registered online. When I go to buy something with my credit card from the iTunes store, apparently you have to have an address for your credit card and a list of country's excluding Australia comes up. The problem is there is only about a dozen countries on the list and mine is not one of them so I can't pay by credit card. What can I do???

    I really wish I was informed when I bought my ipod, that Itunes music store is not available in NZ and we don’t know when or IF it is going to be. Am feeling totally ripped off as one of the reasons I bought my ipod on Sunday was so I could download Audio books off itunes for when I am travelling. Now I go online and find out that I cant even download a measly single let alone a audio book.
    Was feeling so excited about having my ipod and now just feel ripped off and extremely disappointed with Apple and the Apple salespeople. You are told how great itunes is and how you can download video, songs, books etc (when you are buying your Ipod) then once you have paid you $579+ (just for the ipod, let alone another $300 on accessories and warranty) you find out you can't download anything from itunes. Am pretty disgusted really! I researched my purchase, was going to go for a CREATIVE merely so could access NZ download sites, but was talked out of it by the sales person who showed me itunes and how great it is and I do think the IPOD itself is fantastic but wish I had of bought that CREATIVE so at least then I could have downloaded songs; books etc immediately. Bad Form from Apple, particularly given the amount of money I just spent :(((

  • MP3 player for music store

    Hi
    We're building a music store for a record label and wondered if anyone could share experiences in getting MP3 to stream. We need something akin to the iTunes simplicity.
    IE click a play button and hear x seconds of preview. Nothing more than that. No fancy displays or song titles etc needed.
    Fingers crossed.
    Cheers

    JW Player is really easy to implement and skin however you want, from

  • The Page turning effect and widgets. Who else wants this as a widget? I can't get it in ibooks author.

    The page turning effect( or lack of). Having spent 6 months writing a children's story in ibooks author, I can't get this effect unless I export it as a pdf, and re export as an epub. I lose the interactive widgets, and the font format goes crazy, extra page numbers as well. I contacted apple support on 4th Nov, but was recommended to come here. I want the page turning effect, and want to keep the widgets. Surely there is a "widget" to plug in to this? Honestly, I despair...

    I don't think anybody has found a way to do what you want with iBA.  Join the rest in letting Apple know how much you want it via

  • Lumia 800 bottom touch buttons, who else wants the...

    I really do not understand Nokia here, why am I not free to choose if the touch buttons at the bottom of my Lumia 800 have to be lit or not?
    They light up only when brightness is set to Auto or Low, that's pretty ridiculous!
    I use to set screen brightnes to High since I like my amoled display well lit, but using this settings, touch buttons are invisible and when I find myself in a dark environment, I have to blindly tap on them.
    I ask Nokia software engineers to add an option to make touch buttons visible ALWAYS or at least give the user a choise about it.
    I really do not see how this can so dramatically change battery life. Samsung Galaxy S2 has a similar option when you can choose to keep touch buttons always off, or lit for some seconds after tapping them or always lit until display dims.
    Anyone else having the same feelings about this problem?

    No official statement on it. It's a case of wait and see.
    Some sites were claiming it was intentional but I don't believe it as the power saved by disabling those buttons wouldn't make much difference to those with serious issues. I've been told by a trusted source that it is a bug and under investigation.

  • I want to format Itune music store purchases to WAV format

    I need to re-format my I-tune musc purchases to WAV format. I can't seem to do this readily. HELP

    Burn them to a CD from iTunes.  Now re-rip them. You can set the rip format to in iTunes to WAV or use Windows Media Player to rip them.
    You will have to manually add the song tags.
    You can also buy 3rd party software to convert them.  Try Google.

  • Anyone with a MAC who can't connect to Music Store???

    Is there anyone else out there on a Mac who can't connect to the Music Store?
    I've been reading a bunch of threads with similar connection timeout issues but they mainly belong to Window users, users in England who are using an ISP with Orange, and users who are using personal firewalls.
    Just a week ago was downloading songs fine and suddenly three days ago, I can't do anything. Redeem a code, download a song.
    I've contacted Apple Customer Service but am getting the run-around with automatic emails, emails that send me to Windows articles, emails that seem to not be understanding what is going on.
    Has anyone else with a MAC been able to figure out how to fix this? Is a specific modem issue (I have a Motorola cable modem)? Is this an ISP specific issue (I use Cox Communications)? Or is this a widespread Apple issue?
    Ideas? Suggestions??

    Yeah It would be nice if the put ALL windows forums in one section and leave it out of the mac sections, or atleast split the ipod forums one for windows one for macs but ho well...
    I know for iTUnes they have a windows only section, but then for some reason they dumped all windows topics in the iTUnes for mac section too. so Time to Time we get mac posters here and have to redirect them

  • Can't get rid of the japanese itunes music store !

    It's the japanese version of it that pops up from my itunes when I want to get to music store. I live in Australia and would like to be able to download some music from the Aussie music store. Can't be that hard !! I tried downloading a new version of itunes from Australia hoping it would help, but it didn't... What do I do?? Does the fact that I bought the Ipod in Honk-Kong have anything to do with it??

    Maybe, on the Hong Kong ipod...I have no way of really knowing, though.
    Can you change your music store at the bottom of the iTMS home page? Way at the bottom, next to the Japanese flag....change to Australia.

  • Music store defects-- help!

    This is so frustrating! I bought an album I didn't want to because itunes music store mislabeled it. (I wanted a band called Miranda and I looked under Latin music, saw that Miranda had 2 albums, and bought both of them-- but it turns out that one of them isn't the band I was looking for and its not Latin!) It was very deceiving and I want a refund. What do I do? I don't even know how to contact itunes to complain. I tried calling and got a voice message thing which gave me my options and when I said I wanted help with itunes it went through how I could turn off my ipod (?!?) Please help. Is there any way to actually talk (or email) a real person working for mac and not just a machine??

    Music store support is only by e-mail. Pick the appropriate link from the following, explain your issue, then e-mail the store. It usually take a minimum of 72 hours to get a reply, so please be patient.

    I can't recommend anything less than 32 GB.    Once you have it, you will find other uses for the iPad and fill up the storage very easily.
    If you are trying to keep cost low, I suggest the iPad mini. (I can't recommend the iPad Air - lack of quality control)
    Wifi only is fine, I hardly ever use anything else.
    What quality control issue are you referring to with iPad Air?  I know lot's of people, myself included who have the Air and there is nothing wrong with them.

  • Music Store won't load, Anyone Else?

    I can launch iTunes, import CDs, burn CDs, and basically use iTune for anything else but I can't access iTunes Music Store, My account, download podcasts. Obviously I can get on the web because I'm posting this. I can go to any other web page access my bank, credit accounts, etc. It's been this way for over 24 hours now and I'm getting a bit frustrated with Apple.
    Just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing this. I'm located in the Northeast but have never had this kind of trouble before.

    you are not alone...well i am experiencing the same damned thing.
    get error message -9807 ("itunes could not connect to the music store, an unexpected error has occurred. make sure your network connection is active and try again") which NONE of the apple documentation seems to have heard of, i am still waiting for them to get back to me. of course its active or else i would not be able to post this message o nthe forum!!! Doh!!!.
    have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, deleted the plist and prefs files, restarted the mac (i run 10.4.5) and this has not made a blind bit of difference.
    am going to go to the apple store in the west end before the end of the week and see if they can shed any light on this. i can get access to internet, personal baanking, etc, but teh itunes thing is perplexing me.
    have been trying to figure it out for 2 days straight staying up til 4-5am not a thing i have tried has made a difference. even deleted my airport settings, and then got assistance in re-establishing them, still no joy.
    only thing i can think of is that the ISP (onetel) has done something, or the update to 10.4.5 has done something to render no access to the store. i can play snippets of the tracks and play the tracks i have already downloaded but cannot log in and cannto download new tracks. cannot de-authorise my mac either. my tower pc (xp) and my laptop (xp) can access the store fine. i can log in very happily. prior to the 10.4.5 update all was working fine. i have even checked that the port 3689 that allows traffic to and from the store is enabled on the mac and it is through the mac's own firewall. everything else works...boooohooohoooo!!!
    please apple, SORT IT OUT!!!!

  • Someone else bought an app on the store. I had already purchased the app before on my other computer, so I deleted the app on my new computer that the other person purchased. I now want to download the app again on MY account but...........

    Someone else bought an app on the store on my new computer. I had already purchased the app before on my old computer, so I deleted the app on my new computer that the other person purchased. I now want to download the app again through MY account. When I click INSTALL it asks for ID, but it shows up automatically with the other person's ID, so I delete that and enter mine instead. I then click SIGN IN, but then it says "Unknown error", then I click OK, then it says "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)". How do I get rid of all info of other people's IDs so I can get the app through my account again?
    The app that I'm trying to download actually might have been a pirated app. But I deleted it, so why is it not letting me get it through my account?
    Please help!
    Thanks

    you may delete this discussion. I fixed the issue

  • Obtain ID-tag from m4a, m4p, mp3, ... file bought on iTunes Music Store

    How can i obtain ID-tag (... and an unique ID?) from m4a, m4p, mp3 file bought on iTunes Music Store?
    I need to build C/C++ application to make this.
    Best regards.

    Burn them to an audio CD then re-import them. This strips off the restrictions and protections rendering them like any other CD music you import. And then you can store the CDRs away as a backup of your purchase.
