Troubleshooting for Nokia products

If you are a Nokia Music Unlimited user, you can also use Nokia Suite to download music. If you are downloading mp3's, these can be obtained through a web browser. However, for the complete Nokia Music experience, a full install of Nokia Music Player is required.

To install Nokia Music Player software, go to http://music.nokia.com/

A complete article is available on the Microsoft website http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976590 which also provides a fix for this issue.

*Upgraded O/S to Windows 7, non-OEM installs i.e. user installed setups are not affected.
