Hey Natalie,

Thanks for the tip! I tried the URL, and it semi-worked; I got to a band page that I was able to edit, huray! However, it wouldn't let me upload any music, and when I went to my profile page, none of the band info was there. (Nor did the band info I entered remain in the band fields after I entered it...I would get a message afterwards saying, "This text will become searchable within 24 hours." Maybe the updates will show up tomorrow? Either that, or, the band conversion page doesn't work anymore.

Thanks for the tip -- I'll check it out this weekend to see if any change takes place!

I had EXACTLY the same problem. After at least 6 emails, I actually sent one requesting they delete the whole account, which they did quickly enough. Then I re-signed up for a band profile. What a hugely popular and totally broken web experience that is... And like you said, you can't ignore it. Sigh...

I did the same thing and managed to find a link buried in some FAQ somewhere. I blogged about it at http://www.ilivemusic.com/archives/how_to_convert_regular_myspace_page_to_a_musician_myspace_page_000180.htm

Not sure if that works anymore since it was from the beginning of the year but it's worth a shot.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the old "convert" URL is working. Of the many emails I've sent to MySpace about the problem, most return with canned, unrelated answers. However, one returned with:

"Hello,
That issue is currently being resolved. Please be patient.
Thank you,
MySpace.com"

You have to wonder if that's also an automated reponse, or if someone is actually working on the problem...one can only hope.

Okay, it's 6 hours later but I'm glad I've read this. Thanks for the info. I'm experiencing that same fate so I guess I'll stick to what I have until the problem is 'fixed'! Thanks again and Happy New Year!

Dude wtf, just make a band profile alone, it takes like 4 seconds, put a link to ur personel pro, and on your personel pro put a link to you band pro, slacker....

dude, it's not about slackin, it's about not hassling your friends to give you the add again, especially if you've amassed quite a few

Oh wow! I had the exact same problem. So then I gave up and made a new, band profile, after deleting old profile, but then the URL was still "in use" supposedly. So I built a new profile, new URL. But now I can't login in. So I built ANOTHER THREE new band profiles and I can't login to any of them and I wrote MySpace and got no response. So I Googled "MySpace service sucks" and this page was the very first result.

I had the same damn problem so I set up a second myspace with a band profile.

I though it was great to begin with but for weeks now I haven’t been able to edit my profile in any way.

The only thing I can do is add pictures. What use is that! Cant customize the page at all. Useless!

True. I tried the same fix. Does not work, then could not log in for an hour or so. I'm not sure there is a way.
AAARRRRRGH!!!

DNSadmin@myspace.com

I emailed a complaint to this address, and recieved a response within HOURS. Not only that, it was from a real person who quickly helped resolve the issue.

Feel free to email me if you need more info. I cannot divulge the person's email addy, unfortunately, but I MAY be able to point you in the right direction...

I changed my password Sunday morning. Before that I changed it on Tuesday. Tuesday evening, I tried to login but was unable to. clicked on "Forgot your pssword?" 5 or 6 times and no new password was sent to my email. It is now Thursday!!! What to do?

I'll happily add my name to the list of people who think that "MySpace Service Sucks".

Doing my part to keep this page at the top of google's search results. :)

Forgot password

1 more thing will they e-mail it to myspace or Internet e- mail and they will not take stevejudymurray@juno.com

I hope that DNS email works :(
