Subscribers will have limited site functionality this weekend [COMPLETE]

  • Articolo

Due to scheduled release activities for the authorization systems this weekend, MSDN, TechNet, and Expression Subscribers will not be able to use any of their online Subscription benefits, such as downloading files, or viewing or claiming keys. The Subscriber sites will be available for access, but functionality will be limited to that which a non-subscriber has. The release is scheduled to start Friday at 5PM and end Sunday at 5PM (USA Pacific times).

    Site is still down as of Tuesday 9:30 AM. Been trying from both home and work since Sunday evening. Some Top Subscriber Downloads links seem to be working, but Downloads and Product Keys ... Manage My Subscription See all available downloads either return to the front page or go to a signin page that says "The Windows Live Network is unavailable from this site ..."

    Paul: The site it not down. You have conflicting/corrupted Live ID cookies. Clear your cookies and cache, close ALL browsers, reopen a new browser session, try again.

    The downloads are not available to me. Something is not right. I've tried on 2 different PCs.

    John: Can you be more specific? What do you mean "not available"? Are they grayed out? Are you logged in? Is your subscription active? What is your subscription level? Have you checked the FAQ: http://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/downloads/cc137104.aspx

    Thanks for your response. I login (laptop or desktop, both running XP Pro SP2 and SP3) using IE 7, pop-up blocker off, no phishing. Also cleared caches and cookies. If I pick a category, Details is the only pick not grayed out. I have a MSDN account through Southern Company. This is how we get our VL bits.

    The site still seems to be broken, appears to keep redirecting to a blank login page over and over again.

    LIVE seems broken again. Not sure if things are still down or if the servers are up but I can't access things due to some funk on my local cookies. Either way LIVE is making MSDN look bad yet again. Frustrating to have things down for several days, rather than a smooth switch over...
