Marketplace Update!!!

[nook]

Seems that Marketplace has had a few additions with an update. Now you can right click a track and have it take you the the Artist or Album page for the selected item. Anyone see any other additions?

Cool, but I wish you could do that in the Zune app...be able to go to the album display of a selected track.ÂÂ*ÂÂ*Maybe signs of things to come in a future update to the software.

Edit: Missed it, it's already there..right clicking and selecting "Find in Library". Sweet

I've been fooling around with the Marketplace the past two evenings... it is really starting to grow on me. The interface is great in my opinion.

I get the same problem. Hopefully there will be a fix on that soon.

Sadly they may lose a customer because of this....I really like the Zune but I may take it back if I can't get it working. I find it hard that a simple little fix isn't in order. It's the same thing as loging into any netpassport-IE xbox.com. How hard is this to fix? I have until January 8th to decide...so Microsoft get crack'n.

Wait, so you can't login to the xbox live systen with your netpassport? Then it's probably a problem with your netpassport, not the zune software.

Guys,

Uninstall Windows Media Player 11 and revert back to version 10. Once you do that you'll be able to use the Zune software to login.

Its amazingly f*king retarded that they didn't build in the functionality into version 11 when they were days away from releasing WMP 11.

ps. Rep Me!

No I can sign into any netpassport site-but the Zune Marketplace. Zune MP uses netpassport, so what is the problem here? Some guy above me wrote that if you switch back to Media Player 10 it will fix this sign in issue....I don't know how that has anything to do with sign in abilities.

Well I called into Support and spoke with them about why I was unable to sign into the marketplace. They said since I chose to use my XBox live account sign in that is what is causing the problem. they said that the sign in user name for new users should have no spaces or numbers but since it is a XBL account- user names/gamer tags have spaces numbers and other symbols. So far they haven't released a patch for it yet but it is a work in progress. They are aware of the issue. I told them I have till January 8th to decide and if they can't get it together well they just lost 2 customers me and my GF. I bought her one to. Clock is ticking --if no fixy then Apple here I come.

It's good to know what is causing the problem, at least now we know the reasonl.ÂÂ*ÂÂ*Hopefully this will be resolved QUICKLY for those who are running into the same issue.
