ZUNE PLAYER WONTSEARCH THE MARKET PLACE.....

Ok after downloading the correct version directly fom the zune website my
player wouldn't update the firmware so I found a friend with the software
installed on an xp, signed in as a guest and updated my firmware on the Zune
after coming home and connecting ( everything went good ) and synced with my
player. I bought points and proceeded to the marketplace to search for more
songs I wanted only to find my player wont search the marketplace.....It will
only search my library. After talking to Microsoft they said it was DELL ( I
bought my computer April 6th 2007 with Vista Home Premium preinstalled)Dell
said it was fine and to call Zune. Well 4 hours later with tech support it
still wont search the Marketplace and Zune said Microsoft has a vista
download n their site for Zune but it can only be gotten through the systems
( Vista) updater and when I check for it, it never comes up. HELP ME
PLEASE.......any ideas.

If you go to Zune's Help:About Zune:Technical Support Information menu tool,
what version does it say it is at the top, and what version does it say
zunemarketplace.dll is?

I believe the current version is 1.3.5728.0 . The Zune support staff is
probably the best place to seek resolution for Zune-related errors. =\

If you rename the "Zune" folder under "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft" to
Zune.bak , does this then work again?
