Hey guys...i just got my zune HD....its been a while since i retired my Zune80...my problem is since i'm not in the US, the marketplace is not visible. I'd done something settings change in my old comp to make it show....anybody knows how to do it...

What might work is finding the "Regional and Language Options" In control panel and select the United States as your country under the "Location" tab, Then re-open your Zune software and it should be showing.
(On a side note i think you posted this in the wrong section, but I'm new so I might be wrong.)

yeah it is in your control panel under language and region...just set it to the USA and restart everything and it should show....i have never done it, but i am pretty sure this is how it is done

That'll do it for the software. You'll also get access to social as well. And since the 4.2 update, SmartDJ (which they took out GRRRRR) mixview and a few other bits and bobs.

What I'd like to know is how I can access the marketplace from my actual device? I'm in Australia, and haveave changed my location settings on my PC and can access it in the software, but not on my device.

Any idea's?

Yep, can confirm this.
It works.

Just tried it (am in Germany) and I now have access to the marketplace (in oppose to before).
