Hi,
I have a v2 Home A/V dock with a remote control.  After a few months the remote started working very irregularly.  Sometimes it's unresponsive and sometimes the buttons switch controls (ex: the back button suddenly becomes the select button).  I've tried replacing the battery, but I get the same results.  I haven't ...

Hi,
Starting a few weeks ago, I've been unable to use my Zune Pass song credits or buy songs from the marketplace.  I get an error message that reads: "Cannot purchase due to a temporary server error.  Please try again later."  Well, a few weeks certainly is "later" and I still can't buy certain songs.  ...

I'm not sure why this is, it may even be a glitch, but whenever I go to view an artist in the Zune Marketplace, the top and bottom of the pictures are cut off with a big white bar, with some pictures even hiding a band member or two.  Why is this?  When I click on an album, the picture is restored, though faded out as usual.  ...

Since downloading the new Zune software, I noticed that pictures of the artists in the Marketplace are cut off at the bottom by a white bar when you view their page.  This looks like a glitch, because when I click on an album or read the bio of an artist, the picture is restored at the bottom, it's just faded out as usual.  ...

Hi,
Whenever I click on the "Credits (10)" button on the software, I get a box that pops up.  The box remains empty, and after a while it says it can't retrieve data due to a temporary server error.  This feature has never worked for me yet.  I have tried signing out and back in, restarting my pc and even ...

I think this is intentional, because it does the same thing on mine.  This is the only gripe I have with the new Zune software, but in my opinion this is big.  Half the fun was looking at the beautifully rendered artist pages, but now it is just a small, cut-off picture.  It is especially annoying for some artist pages such as the ...

Is anyone else having this problem?  When you go to play a song from the Zune Pass on your Zune device you get a message saying "Usage rights for this item have expired. Please Sync with PC."  When I sync to my PC, nothing is happening.As far as I can tell, this is only a problem with songs download from the Zune Pass.Does ...

I can still play the songs on one computer, but not the other one linked to my Zune Pass account.  And yes, it is properly linked.

I am a Zune Pass subscriber and as I was recently putting together a playlist of music and noticed that many of the songs I wanted could not be played because they were no longer available on the marketplace.  Among these are songs by the artists "Muse" and "Miniature Tigers."  A few "Flaming ...

SUPER does a great job, and it's completely free.  It's a little weird navigating the site to download it, but here's the link:

You can get one directly online from zune.net.  And no, they don't suck.  I've never had a problem with zune before.  They're actually very impressive.

HiI have a problem that surfaced recently.On the software, all the images - the album art, the ads, the artist backgrounds - are blank.  This is in both the marketplace and in my collection.  Can anyone help me fix this?Thanks!

It would be great to be able to choose in the "settings" menu to enable Quick List or Now Playing list.Access to lyrics in a wi-fi spot would be cool.And, if in a wi-fi spot, it would be cool to enable a now playing screen like the one on the software.Oh, games and apps would be cool too.
