Error message when trying to add music to Clip

Happy New Year everyone!!

I have approx 12 songs downloaded onto Windows Media Player 10 and when I try and download them onto my Clip, it accepted 2 of the songs and the other songs won’t download.  I get an error message.  The error message reads…A problem has occurred in obtaining the devices certificate.   Contact Microsoft product support.

Do I really have to contact MS support or have some of you ran across this problem and know how to resolve this.

I would appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you for replying and trying to help, but I did purchase these tunes and licenses to go with them because I have already put them on a different brand MP3 player and worked without a problem, but when it comes to downloading them to this one, it doesn’t work.  I’ve even tried restoring and backing up the licenses.

I appreciate the idea, have any more?  Could it be, you’re only allowed to download them once?  But if that was the case, why would  2 of the 12 download again?

Has me stumped.   

Go into the settings menu and format the device. Once you’ve formatted the player, attempt to resync the music.

OK, thank you so much.  I’ll try it!
