***DOWNLOAD TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS***
1. After helping some of you to get the songs, I’ve found
the number one problem to be with the ISP, those who have AOL or
MSN type servers that have their own internet browsers. For instance,
MSN is my server. It has a little player off to the side that attempts
to play the song when I click the download button, but it skips around
and doesn’t play the song continuously, and I have no idea how to save
the song from that program! My answer to that, is to minimize the ISP’s
browser and use the Internet Explorer or Netscape browsers that came with
your computer. The latest versions of these should give you the option
of saving the song to your computer. If you don’t have the latest version,
you can download them from their sites: http://home.netscape.com/
http://www.microsoft.com/ms.htm
You can then play the songs over the Windows media player or download
a player such as Winamp.
2. Try restarting your computer.
3. If you have a 56K connection, try reconnecting to the internet.
4. Try closing everything out and trying again..
5. Try connecting at another time, preferably at a low internet usage
time.
6. Don’t surf while getting the song.
7. Using more than one browser is also a plus. I have gotten songs
with Netscape when I’ve been unable to get them with the Explorer and vice-versa.
8. System Maintenance can cure a lot of ills. Go to start, programs,
accessories, system tools…. Select the maintenance wizard, or disk
defragmenter. Also do the scan disk or disk clean up.
