40GB Zen Xtra-WILL charge in vehicle, but not in house

Alright, I've searched theknowledge base, read posts for half a day, and still have not found this particular twist on this problem. So, I'm gonna post a NEW one! As I said in the subject line, I have a (quote from the upper left corner of my unit) NOMAD JUKEBOX Zen Xtra, a 40 Gb model, aproximately 2 years old, been returned for hard dri've replacement once. It will no longer charge with a wall charger. I have 2 chargers,(as they sent me another when I had my unit serviced) and neither will charge my Xtra. I've tried other brands of uni'versal chargers, still no luck. However, it WILL charge using a uni'versal charger plugged into the cigarette lighter in my vehicle! The only setting it will charge my Xtra on is at 4.5 volts, so I don't get a full charge. Why they didn't make ALL mp3 players charge with the USB cable is beyond me! Any suggestions, ideas, even sympathy will be appreciated!

I have had enough of creative!!!! They say that they wont help me,
"I apologize for the inconvenience, but according to the information
provided, this product is either EOSL (End of Service Life), or you are
beyond your complimentary e-mail support period."
Obviously it has been like two years!!!
What is the point in there being a support group if most of the really big problems occur after the warranty.
Next time ill go with ipod.
I am on the bandwagon for the class action lawsuit.

  • When I go to plug in my iPhone 5 to my PC it will charge my phone but it doesn't show up that it's connected to my computer or in iTunes. I have tried just about everything that I can find on the internet but nothing is working. Any other suggestions?

    If you have carefully follow ALL of the steps in that article, you are using a USB port directly on your computer and not a USB hub (don't use a front port on a tower or desktop either, as they are an internal hub) and you installed iTunes correctly using an Administrator ID and you have tried disabling your antivirus and firewall then there is no hope of it ever working. Look at the tip again, and go through it carefully, not skipping any steps.
    Note, BTW, that an iPhone will not show up on a computer, only in iTunes. If there are photos in the Camera Roll then it will appear in Windows as a digital camera only.

    Sorry for the delay...
    I did what you've told me, new account and manually copied my files from Time Machine. I had lots of permissions problems, but at the end, almost everything is in order... It seems it had to be with some of the Apple Preferences, but I can't be sure, as most of them were dumped to the trash can.
    I still don't have my Mail Rules back, unfortunately, although I did goggled some. It is a pity, as I had around 30 or 40 of them, getting my mail in order to each of its mailboxes, but it is a small price as the rest doesn't show the before syntoms.
    Thanks for the help, anyway!!

  • How can I move movies from my computer to my iPad? They will play in quicktime but not iTunes

    How can I move movies from my computer to my iPad? They will play with quicktime but not iTunes so I can't sync them

    Th AVPlayerHD works well for playing other video types.  You can transfer the videos via USB in the app tab in iTunes on your computer.  When you open that tab when you have you iPad connected to the computer scroll down and you will see apps listed on the left and a blank on the right.  Click on the app and then click on the add button under the blank window on the right.  Then navigate to the video you want to play and it will transfer it to the iPad.  I have about 14 movies on mine using AVPlayerHD.  works very well.  Also have VLC player (before it was yanked from the app store).  Works about the same.
    You can also get the app Air Video and stream the video to from your computer to the iPad, and even have Theo ad connected to the tv to watch on there.  I do that all the time with my iPhone.  Saves time with not having to sync movies all the time.

    Some songs, which are bought in the iTunes store, will be played iTunes but not on my iPod touch. Has somebody an explanation for that? Thanks,

    No, you should have Restrictions OFF.
    Computer's iTunes > Preferences > Parental Preferences > everything should be unchecked.
    Are the songs also on computer's iTunes?

  • After using video capture device to copy VHS to DVD, burnt DVD will play on computer but not

    After using video capture device to copy VHS to DVD, burnt DVD will play on computer but not on DVD player. Tech support for the VCD said my HP DVD burning software has to burn "DVD Video and not DVD data" and to check with HP. How can i check myself.

    Grahamster, welcome to the forum.
    I recommend trying CDBurnerXP for burning video CD's.  I have been using it for years without a glitch.  I use it mainly for burning ISO's, but have used it for all types.  Please let us know if it works or not.

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you are able to successfully connect to your Wifi network, but cannot get internet access.

    This section in particular since you have Mountain Lion installed:
    OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.4 or later
    Use the Wireless Diagnostics application included with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.4 and later to identify and resolve Wi-Fi issues. For further information, please see About Wireless Diagnostics.
    It is a built in troubleshooting tool to help diagnose and repair network issues and should help you resolve this issue.
    All the very best,

    A website will open via wifi but not via 3G. Is this a setting on the iPad?

    Probably not.  How's your 3G connection?  I ask because I've had issues when the 3G connection isn't strong.  Same with WiFi too, actually.
