I tried to sign into Rhapsody and but got one of these error messages:
- "You could not be signed in. Please try again."
- "Sorry, a network error has occurred and you
have been signed
out."
- "A server error caused your account to disconnect."
These errors may appear if you have an outdated
or corrupted cookie, your firewall is blocking
Rhapsody, or you have a proxy setting inside
Internet Explorer that is blocking Rhapsody.
Try the following solutions
and after each step, try signing in again to see if your issue is resolved. If you are still unable to get Rhapsody to work, you can try clearing out temporary files, checking your firewall software, and some other
fixes.
Solution 1: Make sure you
are running the latest version of Rhapsody.
Go to www.rhapsody.com/-software and download and install the latest
version of the Rhapsody player.
Solution 2: Restart your
computer.
Close down all programs and restart (reboot) your computer. Then try opening Rhapsody again.
Solution 3: Make sure Rhapsody is allowed through your firewall.
Please read the Firewall/Proxy
software section of this
article.
Solution 4: Adjust the proxy settings inside Internet
Explorer.
- Open Microsoft Internet Explorer.
- Click the
Tools menu, then choose Internet
Options.
- Click the Connections tab.
- Click
the LAN Settings button. The Local Area Network (LAN) Settings
window opens.
- If the Use a proxy server for your LAN
box is checked, take a moment to write down the Address and Port info listed,
and then uncheck the box.
- Click OK twice.
- Close Internet Explorer, and try to sign in to Rhapsody again.
If this does not work, be sure to go back and re-enable your proxy server (follow
steps 1-4, and on step 5 just re-check the Use a proxy server for your LAN
box).
Solution 5: Make sure the Proxy is set correctly in
Rhapsody as you see in solution 4.
- Open the Rhapsody client.
- Click Tools and select
Preferences.
- In the box on the left, click
Connection.
- Under Enable proxy server, make sure the information matches what it states for the proxy in Internet Explorer.
Solution 6: Reset your Internet
Explorer.
