Marketplace account not 'authorized'?

Whiplord · 11-13-2007, 02:26 PM

Whenever I try to subscribe to a podcast marked as explicit, I get an error saying I need to be signed into the Zune marketplace with an authprized account. Strange thing is I can view, download and play single episodes of the podcast just fine, but if I press subscribe I get an error. Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere?

Are you logged into the marketplace?

Check in the upper right corner:

Yep, my Marketplace account name shows up there. I can click and have access to my settings, etc.

is your marketplace account over 18?

Well, no, and that would seem a likely explanation. But the parental settings are set to allow explicit content, and I can download and listen to single episodes just fine. Just not subscribe. That's what has me confused.
