Storm and Rhapsody to Go, not Vcast

[ColeMontana]

Both my wife and I just got the BB Storm and are loving it, but we were under the impression when we got these phones, we could synch our Rhapsody to Go Accounts with the phone, rather than using Vcast. Neither of us have been able to figure it out.

I called Verizon and they told us we need to pay another $15.00 per phone for the Rhapsody/Vast subscription. So, essentially if I want Rhapsody to work withmy Sansa Rhapsody MP3 player, I pay for the Rhapsody To Go account $15 +/- per account, then $15.00 +/- for the Vcast to get it on our phones? REALLY?
Isn't there a way around this? We just want the same Rhapsody to Go songs to synch with the Storm...

Your Rhapsody togo account should allow you to sync 3 devices per acount. If you got to My Account>Manage My Devices, while the blackberry is connected via usb it should allow you to, or right click>Authorize on the device if shows up.

Go to Options>Memory and set "Mass Storage Mode Support" to Off. Then connect your device to your computer, open Rhapsody, and right-click on the device in the left-hand column inside of Rhapsody. Once you right click, you should see an option to authorize the device. Once you do that (assuming you have already signed up for Rhapsody-On-The-Go), you should be able to move songs on and off your Storm. It definitely works with the Storm.

If you still are having trouble, call Rhapsody, not Verizon.

I disabled the mass storage mode like you said but when i plug it in to my computer rhapsody doesnt pick up on the device. I have tried everything people have recomended in forums but cant seem to get my rhapsody to go music onto my phone without purchasing the tracks. any help would be great
