I have a similar problem. When I go to View Cart, I get:
There has been an error processing your request

I guess they figure Canadians don't need Caliente music.

Cheers,
Fred

I got the same message using my iPad, I'm here in the USA.  I went to my Chromebook instead and was able to get it successfully without the error.

Got it perfectly on first attempt, thanks!

FYI, I used Firefox on Windows 10 and I am registered in Spain.

In my case I tried the procedure using the old Internet Explorer browser and it works fine for me! With Chrome or Edge I had a lot of problems!

Same for me. Ok with IE. Problems with Firefox.

The Yamaha Musicsoft website has ABSOLUTELY terrible COOKIE handling.
I have complained before, and they admitted there was aproblem. Site is always very slow, too. Well overdue an upgrade.
SDometimes when NOT logged in, you can see all content (say, forGenos, whether instrument selected or not) You add to cart, when you try and login to check out, cart contents not found. When you login sometimes, no content can be found AT ALL for insturment selections.


The ANSWER is to close the tab, delete all browsing files and COOKIES, then re-login. Should then work.

** Offer open as of 23.45 Friday May. (I expect it will be open til end of B/Holiday weekend UK)

Dude! Let's go grab a drink and tell each other tales of Yamaha Website Woes! LOL

I'm a custom software and web developer and I can say their site is a BIG pile of rabbit pellets and donkey doo. :)

Hey ... Yes ... It's rubbish! Like a 20-year old website!
All images of large size completely unnecessary ....
Categories UNCLEAR .. and take ages to load.
My Account is over complicated.
Instrument Selection (if you use it) is slow and long-winded
If you select Genos, next page you are ashed to enter model no, and Genos AGAIN! Then you see 'NO PRODUCTS' !
There is a WEIRD CART and BASKET/Checkout arrangement, too.

Yamaha Musicsoft ... A website like NO OTHER! Maybe written by Chinese .. for Chinese folks.
REALLY BAD, when you consider the site is about electronic data!
😂😂

It worked for me in Canada.  You have to go through the normal purchase routine, then use the Promo Code to zero out the cost.

Thanks Eileen for the post.

Cheers,

Murray

Hey Murray,  I can not find it, on their website(I am in Canada too). Search on their website will not find it.  Could you possibly include the link to the page where this pack is?  Thanks Ken

Hi Ken,
Just log into your Musicsoft account and select Menu then select from there.

I saw someone posted above that said that downloaded the PSR S650....yes... PSR S650, we did NOT make this pack for that discontinued model since the pack exceeds over 2 times the memory required to be install.

Please make sure that you download the proper model.

For those that have a PSR S770 and or PSR S970, select the PSR S775/S975. When you download the file and unzipped, you will see the all PPI files for each model beside ONE PPF File.

For those novices, the Files that have the extension PPI/CPI are just to be copy into a USB memory stick and then load into their Keyboard to install.....

Now, For those that want to add the Fiesta Caliente to OTHER packs that you may already have, then you must use the PPF/CPF files of each of the packs you have including the Fiesta Caliente.

And PLEASE, make sure you have the latest Yamaha Expansion manager installed before you use it.

There was a problem with the account I was signed into on their website. (apparently I have 2 accounts and I did not realize it).  Once I got into the correct account, I found it and downloaded it successfully.

Thanks for your help.

Hello Manuel,

From your post I gather you are part of the development team for this pack. If so, thanks for the work put on it. I am not a pro player by any extent nor I play any of the real instruments which it emulates, but have found the pack nicely done, not too memory hungry, and with plenty of possibilities on my Genos  :D

Thanks!

Hi
This nonsense is probably the REASON for CONFUSION!
Daft Yamaha Musicsoft website. Will still show a Genos version, whatever PSR of keyboard you select.

I am fed up lobbying Yamaha about the Musicsoft website. They will never change it until they absolutely have to.
The assistants are helpful, and thats about it.
See screenshot ... Ridiculous ...

I had a problem with my address in my account, but I reassigned the missing information and after that it worked.

About the lag of website loading, it's a pain, indeed. They have to change/resign their IT team, because it's a disaster  :D

Thank you so much for sharing this. I received my Genos on Saturday and already got 2 expansion packs for free (the second one when I registered my Genos)

Thanks, Vali. At least, when they migrate a database, they need to post a front page banner asking customers to check their account profile. Really, how difficult is that?

All the best -- pj

Hi Manuel,
  I have now had a chance to try this pack and must say I am not very impressed by it. Was very surprised to see that most of the pack voices had a piano icon on them. This is very poor and confusing if when looking at the main screen you want quickly to see what you are using. It certainly needs working on to bring it up to standard.
Eileen

Thanks Eileen,
With me it worked out quickly!
I can not wait to get home and taste everything!

Are you sure you loaded the proper version of the pack to your keyboard?, that happens if you load a PSR S pack into a Genos or so.....we are very careful not just selecting the voices but everything, and is not check 3 or four times, more like 12, we send it after we process everything and checked 6-7 times or more, then goes to Japan, and there is re-check for more people.

Tip, make sure you use to make the pack and have the latest version of the Yamaha Expansion Manager. VERY important. When you gather several packs, make sure you did not un-selected voices or made changes to the pack, that will also have an effect.

This has happen....Some people, "edit" the pack by removing items to make room for other packs, and since they do not know lets say, what voices we are using on the styles, or OTS, that will have a negative effect on the performance of the Pack.

One thing to experiment with, we added several Multipad banks, this feature is probably the most under-appreciated, and most people that may have many years playing PSR -Tyros, have no clue of the powerful tool that can be, we have included in most of the Latino packs, this MP banks. Most people dont even try them, I give you and example, lets say, you select a Style like Rhumba from the factory PRESET section, this is how could be use, and if you have the Salsa Expansion pack installed, press Multipad, go to USER and then Expansion, Salsa, and select Bolero....if you want to put it in Sync, press the Multipad SELECT and then 1 & 2, to start, if during playing any rhumba of your musical selection, could press in the Multipad 3....see how embellish the song, mainly if you use a Rhumba that may not have percussion, you can even use a Bossa (slow to med) Variation 1 or 2, and use the same trick.
