Trouble Playing Downloaded Songs on iPaq

Hello All,
Well, I just upgraded to a iPaq 2755 and the operating system seems a little different than my old 2210. I am having trouble playing music that I purchased online with Windows Media 9.
I have purchased music from Walmart Online, and I can't get it to play in my PDA. I keep getting a message saying "The License for this file cannot be found". I"ve tried loading it everywhich way I can, including using Media Player to copy the files over.
Anybody got any ideas?
Thanks

I have had this problem with my X50v and WMP10. The only way I am able to play purchased music is when I sync to the card through Windows Media Player. I noticed that it creates a foldet are the card called DRM.

I've no problem with that, but when I tried to use Media Player to "sync" the music over, I get a message that says : "Error: Windows Media Player has encountered an unknown error." There are no details available when I right click the message. I'm stumped.
Thanks

I am having the same problem as lehenson. Honestly, not that I'm happy anyone is having problems, but I thought I was going out of my mind. I bought an IPAQ 3115 two weeks ago, and have not been able to play any music I've purchased online. I've run everything through Windows Media Player, but I still am told there is a problem with the license. I can rip music from my CDs just fine. Anyone have similar experiences or, better yet, a solution? Thanks!
