I hear ya. I didnt even manage to get any apart from two individuals out of 1 content i think it was content pack 4. Any how I found a blog which led me to down load all for which is taking forever. When it is all done I just have to see if it imports itself to the programme.
I have never had a software that was soo much trouble

I also spent hours getting the online version of MM 15 to work.
You have to install the program first, then open up all the zipped content packs in order, installing one after the other. (If you've got al this installed already you should try uninstalling it all first, and starting from scratch).
PS The content packs install themselves all over your PC hard drive, which is what confused me - they don't go into one nice neat folder. I tried to move them all during points of install because I thought MM15 wasn't "finding" them. But the bottom line is that it knows what it's doing and you have to install them all in order.
Don't even bother opening the MM15 program until everything is completely installed. But once it is you should be able to open it up and your Soundpools will be there - worked for me.
I also had trouble getting Vita files to work, and I still haven't figured out how to get Revolta files to work (can see the files but can't play them). Maybe there are some other questions in here somewhere about getting those to run - I think I fluked the Vita and I have no idea how I did it.

Hello,
here you find a general description how to download and install the sounds into MAGIX Music Maker.
In order to be able to download synthesizers and sound packs, the following steps will have to be completed once.
Proceed as follows:
- 1. To be able to use Soundpools during the test phase, please download part of the content for free. Click the following path in the program to do so: "Help" -> "Update program / upgrade function" -> "Download free synthesizers and soundpackets..."
- 2. Download the content to your PC (if multiple content packs are offered, then it is recommended that all content packs are integrated into MAGIX Music Maker.)
- 3. After downloading is completed, navigate on your PC to the downloaded file and open it by double clicking. The sound pack will now be installed.
- 4. Open MAGIX Music Maker and click the button "Add styles" in the Soundpool (this button is not visible in Easy mode).
- 5. Navigate to the MAGIX Music Maker program directory. For normal program installations this will be "C -> Programs -> MAGIX -> Music Maker". Select the "Basics" folder and confirm with OK.
- 6. Restart the program. All of the sounds will now be imported and available immediately after program start.
After activating or purchasing the program, the remaining content will be able to be downloaded for free.
Best regards,
MAGIX Music Maker Team

To elaborate on one of the other posts, here is what worked for me to get the soundspools working. I deleted MMM 15 and reinstalled it. The program opened up and I registered it and then shut it down. I then installed all the 4 soundspools in order and restarted the program and the spools were there. Hope this helps somepoeple because I played with it for a long time with no luck.
Horriably frustrated! I have uninstalled MM15 then Re-Installed it, and now I'm confused. I reinstalled it. Here's my question. ON THE RE-INSTALL should I not include the Music and install the Music seperately. Because I have duplications now, some music works, some do not. AND I also have the Soundpool DVD Collection 16 to contend with. If I Install it, it comes up with a seperate pannel and all, what's up with this? I really want to get to work here. I Love when I can get a song done, but really this is difficult.
Hello, I am having the same problem. The first installation was successful, but I had duplicate programs and soundpools but I upgraded. Long story short I uninstalled MM15 and reinstalled it. After all that time MM15 had problems locating the sound pools.
Here's what I did. Go to Start > Search > Type in Magix > then search "EVERYWHERE." Delete anything Magix related. Even any save files. If you want to keep your save files then transfer them to another computer.
I would restart the computer. That being said. Turn off all antivirus and firewall. Now after that download MM15 from scratch and install it.
I DID NOT CLICK RUN. I SAVED THE FILE THEN RUN IT. WHICH IS WHY I ASKED YOU TO TURN OFF VIRUS SCAN AND FIREWALL.
If you have a CD then go ahead and install it. At this point my soundpool was clear, which was a sight I never thought I'd see. It was amazing. Now activate your product. After it restarts itself then click on the link to obtain your soundpool content packets. After you see all four packets available for download then you can go ahead and shut down MAGIX. I downloaded all four packets at once, yet again I saved them to disk rather then running it. Note: don't move any of the files after you save them. It may cause problems. I mean like don't ever move them. lol I wouldn't risk it.
After they are downloaded install them one by one. Do not open MAGIX at all during any of the installations.
If you have problems obtaining the packets then keep trying. MAGIXs' site has:
[abnormal, celestial, concealed, dark, fabulous, fairy, ghostly, heavenly, hidden, impenetrable, invisible, legendary, metaphysical, miraculous, mystic, mythical, mythological, numinous, obscure, occult, paranormal, phantom, phenomenal, preternatural, psychic, rare, secret, spectral, superhuman, superior, supermundane, superordinary, supranatural, transcendental, uncanny, uncomprehensible, unearthly, unfathomable, unintelligible, unknowable, unknown, unnatural, unrevealed, unusual]
problems. That's right. All of the above.
Now after all that it worked! I had one copy of MM15 on my computer AND I had one copy of soundpools in MM15! Put the gun away! Sweet beautiful sound coming from my speakers! IT WORKS!
If you have any questions feel free to send a message my way.

Thank you magixrocks99percentoftheti
I will give that a try. Sorry just getting in to respond but had some Videos to get out, been a real struggle working with Magix, I LOVE writing Music on it, but now I get static on the MP3 export.

Yep! I just spent the last week downloading Magix 16 with content. (2 Gyg)
And I have the same problem. Content files don't integrate with the program?
$105?.....The South African Rand is 8 Rands to 1$......Yep! almost R900.
That promotes an issue of dissapointment.
I am busy doing an uninstalation.
Thanx for the advice.
