Common problems and how to fix them (FAQ)

> the website doesn't load
- clear your browser cache and reload the page
- be sure to use Google Chrome or Safari and not Firefox
- check if your wifi connection is ok
- try to disable your antivirus

> YouDJ is slow on my computer / I hear audio glitches
- be sure to use Google Chrome
- restart your browser! open only the YouDJ website
- check if your laptop is not too hot (fan spinning constantly)
- check if your laptop is not on battery and not in "power saving" mode (see here)
- increase the audio latency to "high" in the YouDJ settings!
- clean your pc and make sure not too much programs run in the background
- try to disable your antivirus because it can be busy scanning
- use the YouDJ Desktop app, it runs in a much higher priority mode
- ask santa claus to bring you a new computer ;)

> I have upgraded by account to DJ level X but it doesn't work
Very important : be sure to be logged in with the right YouDJ account! Indeed you have to login so the system can know what you paid for.
If you didn't have an account when you paid, login with your email and the password '123456' (you can change the password afterwards).

> I already paid for ... but it asks me to pay again
Be sure to be logged in with the right YouDJ account, your DJ level never expire! Indeed you have to login with the correct account so the system can know what you already paid for. Be careful if you created multiple accounts (intentionally or by mistake), each account is independant.
The payment system is entirely automated and if the payment really worked (= your bank accepted it), DJ level has been updated, 100% guaranteed! If you just paid for a new DJ level, be sure to RELOAD YOUDJ to see the result!

> I already paid for ... but it asks me to use the desktop app
Some features require to use the desktop app. Download and install it. The desktop app and the website are two different things!

> Where can I download YouDJ desktop?
Go to the download page, it is free!

> Is the payment safe?
All the payments are processed by PayPal or Stripe and not by YouDJ. I never see your credit card details, I only receive "confirmation of payments". Therefore I can not charge you without your consent. Be sure that Paypal and Stripe have very strict rules for online payments and they ban all websites which are not honest. The fact that YouDJ uses Paypal and Stripe for more than 10 years should convince you that it is all safe :)

> Is the price one-time payment or monthly subscription?
All prices are NO SUBSCRIPTION, there are ONE-TIME PAYMENT!!! upgrades are for life :)

> Do you have a your refund policy?
Yes sure! Our refund policy is pretty standard in the software industry, go to refund section.

> I can't hear anything
YouDJ uses the default soundcard of your computer, so if you have a USB soundcard (like a MIDI controller), be sure to enable the correct soundcard.

> I can only hear the music on the right speaker
You have probably selected the mono headphones mode in the settings. This mode requires a DJ splitter cable to work properly.

> I have problem with the headphone preview
If you have issues with headphones preview, especially with your MIDI controllers, please have a look at the audio configuration guide

> YouDJ can not find the BPM of some of my songs (BPM is '---')
By default, YouDJ will autosync your songs and therefore your songs must have a stable tempo (BPM). This is always the case with modern music which has been recorded in a studio. However, sometimes no stable tempo will be found for songs played live (rock) and songs which are altered or already mixed. Also because of technical limitations, YouDJ is not able to analyze the BPM of videos.

> I have the MIDI controller XXXXXXX, is it compatible with YouDJ?
YouDJ is compatible with all MIDI controllers, MIDI is a communication standard. I provide MIDI mappings for 90% MIDI controllers in the market : see the list of included mappings. Please note that the provided mapping are made by YouDJ users. I can't own all controllers myself! If your controller is not in the list, it STILL WORKS with YouDJ but you will have to use the MIDI editor to map it yourself.

> YouDJ doesn't see my MIDI controller
Be sure 1. Windows / MacOS detects it 2. No other software is using it 3. the controller is in MIDI mode (not HID)

> Some controls of my MIDI controller are not right
Almost all YouDJ features can be mapped on your MIDI controller. I provide default MIDI mappings which are made by the community. I can not guarantee that they are all perfect because I don't own all controllers. However, you can configure pretty much what you want in the MIDI mapping editor. In pratice you will probably need the midi editor to perfect the mapping the way you want.

> I sent an email but no one replied
I do reply to all emails, but it can take us a few days to reply. Be sure to check if our reply is not in the spam folder please.

> I forgot my password and reset doesn't work
When you reset your password, our system send you an email with the reset instructions. But be aware that most spam filters will block such automated email from an unknown email address. So be sure to check in your spam folder please, the email is always sent by our system.

> Is YouDJ translated into other languages?
Yes! The site is accessible in : English, German, Spanish, Portugese, Dutch, Swedish, Italian, Russian, Polish, Romanian and Greek.

Refund policy

Our refund policy is standard in the software industry : we will refund you if you didn't get what you paid for AND if the problem is mainly our fault.
To request a refund, please send an email to refund@you.dj with the following info :
- payment to be refund (date, amount, payment email)
- a picture or a small video to show the problem (eg. made with your phone)
- info about your computer (operating system? ram? model?)
Refund requests will be examined by the YouDJ programmer and since he is busy building the app, the refund can take up to one week.
Please be sure to send a picture or a video of the problem, it is not because we don't believe you but we need them to fix all issues in YouDJ.
Also refunds can cost us up to 5$ in bank fees, so we are pretty strict on our policy and we won't refund if : you refund request is not fully documented, if you changed your mind after a while, if you were expecting a feature which is not listed on the site, if you bought YouDJ just for one party and you don't need anymore, if your son/daughter used your credit card without your consent, if you completed the whole purchase process "accidentally", if you made duplicated purchases (PayPal and Stripe only charges one time, we can't charge you automatically, we only receive confirmations of payment, not your credit card details!), if there is a problem with YouTube or SoundCloud (we have no control on any future changes on their side), if your MIDI controller is not perfectly mapped (please accept that our mappings are made by the community not by us, we don't own the 120+ controllers to check all of them, use the MIDI editor to perfect the mapping), if you expect a MIDI feature which are not listed in the YouDJ MIDI command list (in the YouDJ settings)...
Be sure that we do our best to make the best DJ software but a problem is always possible because all computers are different, sorry in advance :)
