Xbox Music API: Deep Link for Xbox Music Pass

Hi all!
I am building an app which uses Xbox Music API.
There's a guide to deep-linking, and there's explanation on how to build the affiliate link for track/album purchase, but I couldn't find how to build affiliate link to buy Xbox Music Pass. Is there any information on how to get it?

I recommend that you post your question to the XBox forums:

  • Can't make symbolic links for Documents, Music, Movies, Pictures folders?

    So, on my previous setup, which was also running 10.5 I was able to create symbolic links for my Documents,Music, Movies and Pictures folders so those files could be stored on an 2nd hard drive.
    However, today I'm setting up my new Mac Pro and I try to remove those folders and create the symbolic links and it tells me that permissions are denied.
    Can anyone tell me why this would be different on the Intel Mac than it was on my PowerMac G5? How can I get around it?

    those folders are protected by "deny delete" ACLs to prevent accidental deletion.
    you can remove the ACLs using
    chmod -N ~/Documents ~/Music ~/Movies ~/Pictures
    you'll then be able to delete them.

  • Correct settings for xbox 360

    Hi i have an older airport extreme with wireless N and dual band signal.  I'm trying to connect my xbox 360 to it wirelessly for xbox live.  I know i'm not the first one to ask this question but truth be told, I had it working fine until apple's latest update in late January 2012. Since then the xbox will connect and have a good signal (at least 3 bars and usually 4) on xbox's test screen.  I've looked for an answer to my problem but it seems no one has posted anything about this yet because the software for the airport and airport utility are so new.  What will happen when playing a game is it will connect and start out fine with a good transfer rate (not great but good because my laptop somehow has a higher transfer rate. laptop 144mbps. xbox 360 65mbps) But after playing an online game the transfer rate dramatically drops, and drops so much that it becomes extremely laggy and then kicks me out of the game saying something like lost connection to server, making any online game unplayable.  If i restart the xbox and play the same game online, the same thing happens.  Like i said none of these problems were happening before this recent software update.  As a side note, the software update also seemed to remove some useful options from the router like the ability to increase the power of the signal (i really dont unstand why apple would remove features but whatever). So if anyone has a fix or suggestion, please reply to this.

    i basically answered my own question. i reverted back to 7.6 firmware and got rid of 7.6.1. And now everythings fine. Thank you apple for supplying me with an update that made it worse.

    I have two different accounts with I-tunes and I want to link both purchases for my music to one account. How can I do this?

    You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

    I am tyrying to link our xbox and PC int oour wireless network.  I am using an apple airport express and it is asking for my WEP Key.  Where do I find it?

    You should be able to setup WPA / WPA2 access, rather than WEP - which is old an less secure. (Unless your devices are too old for WPA??)
    Try this link: http://spotlight.getnetwise.org/wireless/wifitips/apple/apple-wpa.php
    **Edit
    Airport does support the WEP protocol.

  • Please somebody out there must know , bought storage on icloud thinking was same cloud on xbox , receipt says i can cancel in 15 days money back but not how to do it , no link for that , just going around in circles , they ask for serial no,dont have?

    Hello all those smarter than me ! help , please , purchased icloud storage thinking could use on xbox cloud storage , receipt says can cancel and refund in 15 days
    but no link for that option , have been going around in support circles that just dont help , they ask for serial numbers , i dont own an apple device , sorry to shock, will change from android next time ok,its only $21 so its more the satisfaction of getting through the maze , anybody ???

    You can cancel an iCloud storage upgrade but only within 15 days of buying:
    Apple seem to have made this as difficult as possible. You may be able to do this using http://expresslane.apple.com - Click on 'More products and services', then 'iCloud', 'Account and setup' then 'This topic is not listed'. Explain the situation in the box provided and wait for a response - include a phone number. However you may find you cannot proceed without entering a hardware serial number which is still eligible for AppleCare.
    In that event you will need to phone them directly, using the Apple Online Store number given at the bottom of this page. The first person you speak to may tell you to do it from the iCloud website but this is not possible. Politely insist on escalating the issue to a more senior person and eventually you should be able to get through to someone who can deal with this (you may have to wait for them to call you back) - you will be asked security questions and for part of your credit card number to identify yourself.
    If it is more than 15 days since you purchased the storage you cannot cancel it for a refund; you can downgrade your plan as from your next renewal date. Please see

  • A LOT of iTunes broken links/tracks after Music folder move...

    So yeah, I'm getting a TON of broken links / dead track links in iTunes after having to do two things to my iTunes install recently and I'm at wits end trying to fix it.
    I keep my iTunes Music Folder on an external and share the iTunes library between my work Macbook Pro and my home Macbook. Every Friday I drag my iTunes folder and all contents from my MBP onto an external and replace the iTunes folder on the 'weekend' MB, then do the same back on Monday. I keep my iTunes music 'View' as 'Date Added' so that I can always be listening to whatever is newest. It's how I roll.
    Well, this week I had some data problems during the transfer and had to use a previous week's iTunes Music Folder, which was fine as I hadn't added much this week.
    I also got a new external because the old one was getting a little shady, so after doing the iTunes Music Folder replacement I moved my music all over to a new external drive, told iTunes where it all was at. iTunes did it's thing, 'organized' my stuff and all seemed good - until I got back deeper into the catalogue of music and started getting a LOT of broken tracks. The songs are still there, in the correct folders and all, but for some reason iTunes isn't finding them.
    When I say a LOT, I mean so far it's hundreds of my 13,000 songs.
    Now I COULD use the 'Super Remove Dead Tracks' script from Doug's to find all the broken files then re-add the whole library, but it will add all the old songs out of order because they will get a new 'Added' date.
    I could also manually move thru my whole library holding down the arrow key for 'Next' to find all the broken links then go thru, select them, and use the 'iTunes Track CPR' script from Doug's to re-add them to the library with ratings intact, but still they will be out of order time-wise.
    I cannot find a script that will parse my library, find broken links, and re-associate them with their tracks, nor can I figure out why this happened and any other way to fix it. Repairing permissions hasn't helped. Any other ideas?

    Just to follow up with a more comprehensive example of looping through a Library to detect & repair "missing" file-tracks:
    <pre>
    property kErrAENoSuchObject:(-1728)
    on run
    tell (application "iTunes")
    set theLibraryPlaylist to (first library playlist)

    -- Get this file-track's info (useful for debugging, etc.)
    set thisArtist to (artist of thisFileTrackRef)
    set thisAlbum to (album of thisFileTrackRef)
    set thisName to (name of thisFileTrackRef)
    set thisFileTrackInfo to (thisArtist & " > " & thisAlbum & " > " & thisName)

  • Unable to mount samba share file for xbox 360

    I want to be able to stream music from a directory in my arch linux computer (xfce4) to my xbox using samba on a local network using ethernet cables and a router not connected to the internet. I've been able to get samba to startup and I see the folder "share" in my network tab in thunar, but I am currentlly unable to mount that folder. I haven't been able to get the xbox to recognize my arch computer or visa versa.
    Here is the configuration I am running as of now:
    #======================= Global Settings =====================================
    [global]
    # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: MIDEARTH
    workgroup = XBOX
    # server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
    server string = "Samba Server"
    # Security mode. Defines in which mode Samba will operate. Possible
    # values are share, user, server, domain and ads. Most people will want
    # user level security. See the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for details.
    security = user
    [share]
    comment = music for xbox
    path = /home/ricky/Music
    browsable = yes
    guest ok = yes
    read only = yes
    create mask = 0777
    # This option is important for security. It allows you to restrict
    # connections to machines which are on your local network. The
    # following example restricts access to two C class networks and
    # the "loopback" interface. For more examples of the syntax see
    # the smb.conf man page
    I did a chmod -r 777 on the ~/Music directory already and I still haven't been able to mount it. I have read in the wiki that creating a /mnt/xboxshare directory, for example, would actually mount the share directory and allow the xbox to share. However, I would rather just use the directory I specified instead of creating another directory. Has anyone else experienced this problem or have any advice for me?
    Here is some additional information:
    I do have to input a password when I issue this command
    $ smbclient -L \\RG_ARCH
    Enter password:
    Domain=[XBOX] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.6.8]
    Sharename Type Comment
    share Disk music for xbox
    IPC$ IPC IPC Service ("Samba Server")
    rg Disk Home Directories
    Domain=[XBOX] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.6.8]
    Server Comment
    RG_ARCH Samba Server
    Workgroup Master
    XBOX RG_ARCH

    I was wondering whether it had anything to do with the network I was using. The router I am using can't access the internet and I am using the basic 192.168.1.X setup with 255.255.255.0 as the mask.
    My computer has an ip of 192.168.1.2 and the xbox has an ip of 192.168.1.3. However, I am still unable to ping the xbox or even see it show up in the network. I did notice that whenever I am using another router that is connected to the internet, I can see other windows based computers in the network tab in thunar under "windows network"
    Also, I do have a username and password associated with the samba setup.. so I assume maybe that has something do with it. I checked the permissions of the share folder and it was root:root with read and write permissions. I know samba is working fairly well.. but for whatever reason I can't get the xbox to connect even while it is on the same local network.

  • Time Capsule: HD readable for Xbox and 'outside'?

    Hi,
    I just bought a Time Capsule (TC). Very nice design and my 4th Apple product (that in 6 months!). Anyway, before I got a TC I had a Linksys router. This router had a web interface so I could connect to it from outside home (let's say work). Is this possible with a TC too? Maybe for reading files too from the harddrive (kind of like a server (wouldn't that be very cool?))?
    Furthermore, I have a Xbox 360. Is it possible to read TC's harddrive from my Xbox so I can store my Music on there? Or is this only possible with an USB connection only?
    Last thing, how is the TC's harddrive formatted? HFS or FAT?
    That's it for now..

    1. Yes, you can enable sharing over WAN and can access the Time Capsule via AirPort Utility over the internet and can access the hard drive using afp://
    2. I believe so, but you have to install some special program to do so. I'd suggest looking on the web for Xbox Media Sharing as I saw some forums related to accessing music, videos, etc. on the Xbox from Time Capsule.
    3. FAT 32

  • After a crash, lots of audiobooks have somehow moved to Music folder, and links are broken - how can I fix this?

    Wow, I'm surprised the forums accepted that long a title.
    Anyway, the computer crashed. I started again, and when opening iTunes after the crash ... something happened. There was a prompt that I idiotically didn't write down (Moving Library? Updating Library?), that kept going for hours, and eventually I just gave up and shut it down. That was probably stupid. Also evidence of significant things happening: the next Time Machine backup was 60GB+, so something big had changed.
    As best I can tell, lots of my Audiobooks (and I've got MANY) now have broken links - when I look in the "iTunes Media" folder, many of the files that were once in the "Audiobooks" folder are now in the "Music" folder instead. All are still in the same subfolder as before: so audiobook files that were in "Audiobooks / BBC Melvyn Bragg" are now in "Music / BBC Melvyn Bragg", for example. So far I've only found Audiobooks that have been messed up in this way. Music and iTunes U and Podcasts seem to be unchanged, but maybe I just haven't noticed those problems yet.
    And obviously I want to fix this.
    Note that my iTunes library is set to "Keep iTunes Music Folder organized". All of the organization is what iTunes has done.
    Option 1: can I just restore from a Time Machine backup? If so, what should I restore? There have been a few changes in the metadata in the 3-4 days since the crash, but I'm not overly concerned with that.
    Option 2: can I just use Finder and move the files back? This would seem the "easiest" option to me. Although lots (hundreds? thousands?) of audiobook files have been moved, they're within only a couple of dozen different folders. Dragging them back into the correct folder would be easy - but what kind of havoc would that wreak on the database system?
    Option 3: go through each track and find the file. I can do this. It'll take hours and hours and hours. I don't want to do this.
    Slightly different question: how can I make a smart playlist of all the files with broken links? (I'm still trying to get a handle on just how big this problem is.) I've found suggestions about (1) making a smart playlist of everything, (2) dragging all of those into a normal playlist, and (3) making a new smart playlist of whatever's in #1 but not in #2, but that doesn't seem to be working for this situation. Is that advice now outdated, or is there something unique to my situation?
    Thanks in advance!

    Following up: I went with Option 2 above, and it seems to have worked quite well. I didn't even need to quit iTunes. After the files were moved, the exclamation marks remained at first, until I played the file, or restarted iTunes - now all seems well, until the next crash anyway.

  • NAT configuration and Port Mapping for xBox

    I'm looking for help with port mapping to open up the NAT for an xBox One. I'm working with the following network devices:
    xBox One
    DSL Modem: Embarq (ZyXEL) 660R series
    Airport Extreme version 7.7.3
    I understand the following from researching the issue:
    The default settings for both devices block the ports needed for xBox Live.
    Airport Extremes are not on the compatible list for xBox.
    Port Mapping is better then creating a DMZ for the xBox.
    The xBox needs its own manually set IP address.
    I switched my Network>Router Mode from Off (Bridge Mode) to DHCP and NAT. I then created a DHCP Reservation and the Port Settings for that IP.
    After doing this, the Airport would restart and display a warning - Double NAT. I figured this was because the 660 settings showed the NAT Mode to be SUA Only. The Edit Details link displayed an empty table where you edited the SUA/NAT Server Set. I switched from NAT Mode>SUA Only to None. So there was my Double NAT and I would have thought that would have removed one.
    I also disabled the Firewall and Enabled the UPnP.
    After restarts the Airport continued to display the Double NAT error. However, with the 660's NAT Mode set to None, the Internet was not there. Web browsers and email accounts replied with server not found.
    Only with the 660 set to SUA Only and the Airport in Bridge Mode is the Internet accessible. I now have the details for the SUA filled out for the xBox's IP address and ports.
    Hypothesis
    Since both devices are acting as DHCP servers the port mapping is not working. Rather then have the 660 distribute IP addresses and then having the Airport distribute another range of numbers, I need to have both devices bridge and distribute one range of numbers. Currently the 660 is using the 192.168 range and the Airport is using the 10.0 range.
    Am I correct? Any thoughts and suggestions are welcome.

    Port forwarding through a double NAT.. is near impossible.. !!
    And the xbox is so attuned to using UPNP it is very hard not to.. even port mapping is not a great fix. Since apple decided gamers did not count as users for Airports.. I think honestly it is best to bypass the airport and stick to upnp from the modem router.
    What method of authentication does your ISP use? Because it is really better to use one router.
    And in fact the router should be the Zyxel. If you plug the Xbox to the Zyxel running in full router mode, with the airport removed from the network does it work and open NAT??
    If not replace the Zyxel with a modern listed router that is xbox compatible and bridge the airport to it.

  • You can't use this mobile for Nokia Music Unlimite...

    I have just purchased a Nokia 5130 XpressMusic mobile phone which came with music.  I have previously had a similar phone which came with music which for the last year I have been using.  That unlimited downloads has now expired. 
    So I have plugged in my new phone, which I have not used to purcahse any music with through my old unlimited downloads, and it is saying:
    You can't use this mobile for Nokia Music Unlimited edition mobile.
    Can someone please tell me why not?  The phone is capable of playing music (it is an XpressMusic mobile).  I have specifically gone and purchased this phone for the unlimited downloads and will not be very happy if I am unable to activate it.
    Many thanks,
    Tania

    Hi Tania,
    Like @petrib mentioned you should be able find local Nokia Care details behind that Contact us -link up right in this page (or if you tell which country you are in I can check the details for you).
    You could also update to latest Nokia Music Player which has just become available e.g. here http://europe.nokia.com/support/product-support/nokia-music-support and see if activation would work with that.

  • Why won't the music player quick link work on ios7

    I have installed ios7 and now the quick link music player will not work! Any ideas as I cannot play music in the car without going into the full music player! Also my in car controls have stopped working the player? Very annoying worked fine on ios6

    Unfortunately, I think that is probably your only option. the "!" is stating that the link between the music and the visual title on your iPod is broken and the iPod doesn't know where it is. Did you have auto-updating on for your music when you plugged it into your friends computer? And how did you remove it from the computer? If the iPod was still updating when you removed it, that could have caused it.
