If you have a question that is not covered in this FAQ, please post it in ask a moderator.
I still did not get a registration email from remix.nin.com, where is it?!
If you check your spam, and add nin.com to your list of allowed e-mails, and still wait and wait for an e-mail that never comes, it's possible that you never will be able to get one using that e-mail address. For some unknown reason, some e-mails seem to throw your remix.nin.com registration e-mail into some black hole. Long story short, don't use hotmail. Yahoo has give some people problems, but so far nobody has any problems with gmail.
So, can I get it sent to another e-mail address?
Unfortunately, at this time, we can not have the registration e-mail re-sent to you, or to a new e-mail address. For the time being, you will have to sign up for a new account, and use a different e-mail address (I suggest a gmail one). We are not able to delete your previous attempt, or re-name a member, so you will have to come up with a different name (or at least some variation of it).
Some things are not showing up or working, help!
Sometimes, these problems can be solved by simply changing your browser. remix.nin.com tends to work the best with Firefox, but tends to work well for Opera and Safari. This should hopefully solve the problem, but there are still bugs/glitches.
Why won't it let me download this remix?
Again, sometimes the browser is the problem. If not, sometimes it will download it without you knowing. Click "download mp3", and it should change to say "downloading..." in light gray (after asking you what you want to save it as and where, but for some reason it does not always do this part for everyone) and change back to "download mp3" after downloading has finished.
Why is my remix not showing up? I uploaded it and it's not on the site!
As stated on the site, all remixes enter a queue after being uploaded, and a moderator has to listen to it and check it for copyrighted content before approving of it. Once it's approved, it will be on the site. If for some reason is it denied, you will receive an e-mail saying so, with an explanation from the moderator who denied it. If approved, you will get an e-mail saying so with a link to your remix.
Until you receive one of these e-mails, please do not re-upload your remix. This will only cause it to show up multiple times in the queue and slow down the approving process.
When I go to upload my remix, I just keep getting a "Upload failure" message. What's wrong?
If your file is fine (mp3 and plays in your choice of mp3 playing programs), then try clicking "upload" then do not do anything in your browser while it uploads. If you STILL get this error, just keep trying uploading like that and it will go through eventually. We're not sure why this error occurs.
