Arashi On

sakurai-storm uploaded her whole collection of Arashi mp3 (including solos) and it's available here:
http://www.arashi-forum.com/index.php?topic=527.0

and there's also my collection of Nino's solos here:
http://www.arashi-forum.com/index.php?topic=299.0

but both can only be accessed if u register 1st at the forum, and have at least 1 post count...

if there's any problem u can always ask us at the shoutbox there in the forum..

hope that helps ^^

From:

awww, thank you for your help; i really appreciate but.. i was wondering if it's available somewhere on lj nee.....coz the last time i tried signing up there was some sort of error; which i'm not really sure what it was. :'(

From:

really? that's weird...

i hope someone else will help u then ^^

From:

i hope so too.... anyways, i thank you again for your help earlier!! x3

From:

oh arashi forum moved to another site. after u logged in, look at the shout out box (top part of the page). there'll be a shout out dat says "we are now moved to XXXX"
click on it and if they ask for u to re-register, juz do it.
the link that ai_nino gave really helps. there are 213 arashi songs there (http://www.anikaos.com/040-onion_msn_smilies/cebollita_animated_onion/cebollita_animated_onion-02.gif), u wouldnt have to ask around anymore ;p

From:

well yes, it really is tempting but i didn't receive any verification email to validate my account; and when i clicked on "request another verification mail", it says "an error has occurred!"

is it coz i registered a tad bit late...?

From:

i remember the "error" message appear at the forum with brownish lay out (the old forum) right? or did the error message appear at the forum with blue lay out? (the new forum http://www.arashi-forum.com/index.php)

if its the brownish one, then it should like i said before.
if its the blue one, i know what's wrong (i had the same prob last time).
u hav to post sumthing 1st before u can hav access to some links. so the easiest way is to go to "member introduction" and introduce urself.

then, u should be able to see this link

gud luck dear!

From:

(i am really really sorry for troubling you by asking lots of questions... ;_;)

i wish to do that but in order to that, i need to validate my account first, no? coz, if i still haven't validate my account, i can neither log in nor post anything. so... the thing is, i still haven't received any verification email; even though i've clicked on the "request for verification email?" four times now....
;_;

the error i mentioned looks something like this:

From:

oh? they havnt send u the confirmation e-mail? (O.o)

i copy and paste what they say at their FAQ (funny, if i can read their forum, it must mean i can already log in, no? haha. but i guess it can help new users as well):

Q: I've registered for an account, but I haven't received the activation email. Why?

A: Please check your junk/spam folders in case they were redirected or recognized as junk. We assure you it's not junk email and your address will not be used to send spam. And please ensure that your email is valid during registration. If you encounter registration problems and wish to contact us, please email to admin@arashi-forum.com. Please ensure that it is a real problem before emailing or it will not be entertained.

From:

i've checked both my inbox and my spam folder and even refreshed them a lot of times now. i even checked to see in case i typed my email wrongly but nothing seems to be wrong with it... i guess i gotta ask the admin ne?

From:

haha.. u sounded desperate already XD
yeah, u can contact the admin, i suppose!

I'm really, really sorry, I didn't know you were facing such an issue with the verification email... .___. we're trying to get it sorted out, and as soon as we figure out what's wrong, i'll reply here again ^^

otherwise, i can always set up an account for you, if you wish to access the forum still =D let me know~

From:

I didn't know this forum existed... *fail* I only know of Aibakaland & the unofficial SG fanclub forum... D: I'll register to the forum immediately!~ XD

From:

well, it's a new forum. It's only 4 months old ^^

thanx for joining!

From:

Oh, no wonder! Haha okay. :)
Np! :D I like fan forums~ LOL. ~~Cus it's where everyone can gush about their common idols~ :x~~

From:

I know arashianfiles.org looks dead, but you can still access the different parts of it through the Wayback machine (http://www.archive.org/index.php). You can find most of their solos in the mp3s part.

From:

ermm.... *scratches head* mind giving me a few pointers...? i typed arashianfiles.org in the box above the "take me back" button but it seems that it couldn't find the page either? :S

From:

Oh, sorry, arahianfiles is (was?) such a lifesaver, I didn't thought you wouldn't know it!
So, here you go (http://arashianfiles.orgfree.com/)

For the wayback machine, you have to give it a whole url, so you'd better go to arashianfiles, copy the link to the mp3s (well, it's this one (http://arashianfiles.orgfree.com/mp3o.htm), but taking a look at the whole site should give you an idea of how much you can find here, thanks to the work of some awesome people ^^), copy it into the wayback machine and then, hit the button.

From:

m(__)m
i'm really sorry for the trouble.....

oh!
it works!! thanks so much for the links and the pointers!! x333

From:

You're welcome ^^" I don't even remember how I first found arashianfiles' link, since I've always been under the impression that no one writes it completely (at least not on LJ). I wonder if it was something the maintainers asked for, a long time ago? It has always been a mystery to me ^^

Be careful, the MU links will probably looks wrong when you get them through the wayback machine: you've got to remove the part of the url this site adds to it.

From:

ah yes, i noticed that too and thank goodness that the links are still usable after i removed the "extra" url in front of it.
again, many many thanks from me!
