Frequently Asked Questions: Placing an Order
What are your hours of operation?

Our office is staffed 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. Pacific Time, Monday – Friday. We are closed for most major holidays and all weekends. We can accept your order and e-mail 24 hours a day, but may not be able to respond until the next business day.


I’m not comfortable placing an order over the internet. Do you offer an alternative?

You may order by fax (206.329.0235), phone (206.329.5657), or by sending payment (check/money order/credit card details) to the address below:

  • eMedia Music
  • ATTN: Software Orders
  • 664 NE Northlake Way
  • Seattle, WA 98105

Be sure to contact our customer service team before mailing payment to determine the total. Do NOT mail cash or cash equivalents. eMedia Music is not responsible for payments lost in transit. Do NOT send credit card details via e-mail as it is not a secure communication method.


I haven’t received an order confirmation by email. Did you get my order? How long must I wait?

We send an order confirmation via e-mail upon verifying your order. Your order confirmation should be received within 1 - 2 business days after you submit your order. Since our order confirmations are sent by an automated server, some e-mail providers/clients filter this message to a spam/junk mail folder. If you haven’t received an order confirmation and it has been more than two business days, the message was likely treated as spam/junk mail. If your e-mail provider/client offers the option of a white list, address book, or list of approved e-mail addresses, be sure to add and This will ensure you receive our order confirmations, newsletters, and announcements on new products.


I want to send an order as a gift but I don’t want the recipient to know the prices. Is this possible? Can I include a gift message?

Yes, we can send your order as a gift. Please let us know that your order is a gift and the preferred message. We can include a gift message of up to 200 western characters (no kanji, arab script, wingdings, etc.). We reserve the right to refuse obscenity- or profanity-filled messages. At this time, we do not offer gift wrap services.

Frequently Asked Questions: Payment
What forms of payment do you accept?

We can accept four major credit cards: Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express. We can also accept checks and money orders in US funds.


Do you accept check by phone?

We do not accept check by phone.


Do you accept PayPal?

We do not accept PayPal.


I found a lower price through another store/website. Why aren’t your prices lower?

As the manufacturer of our products, we establish the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) and sell our products at that MSRP. We do not want to undercut the pricing of our retail partners.

When comparing products, make sure the product offered is the current version. eMediaMusic.com always sells the latest version of our products. Previous versions are often sold at considerably lower prices than the current version. Also, make sure that the product is in a new, sealed package. Refurbished, returned or open box products often lack the full warranty, tech support and other components included with a new product. eMediaMusic.com only sells new products.

How do I return a product?

Frequently Asked Questions: Other Questions
What is the appropriate age for your software? Is the software appropriate for children?

With a parent or guardian being occasionally available, children ages 8 and up can enjoy any of our Method titles. Our new My Music series is designed specifically for children ages 6 and up.


I’m located outside the U.S. and have trouble with the software registration form.

Fill in all available fields with your country's equivalent. Although ZIP codes are unique to the U.S., your country probably uses postal codes.
