Any alternate sites that sell good Creative Zen Xtra case

Besides the included Travel Case, I'm wondering if there are any other cases made for the Creative Zen Xtra mp3 players. Thanks!

Yep the Vaja cases are awesome, with an awesome price tag
I would love to get one for my Rio Karma though (when the mortgage comes through )

Creative Zen Micro Case/ Accessor

I recently purchased the Creative Zen Micro Case. I've had a purple ZM since they came on the market and really haven't had any problems other than one crash where I lost everything. That was annoying but it did force me to put new stuff on which I don't do on a regular basis.
I have the white Capdase case but was looking for something with a belt clip. The quality of some of the cases with clips isn't that fantastic and not terribly stylish. I decided to go with the Creative case because it was finally available, looked nice and the website claimed it had a clip. They say "clip it to your belt or waistband, or wear it around your neck". The website doesn't have any really good pics of the back of the case though.
The case arri'ved this week. This case does not have a clip. It has a leather loop on the back, attached at one end with a snap. So I could snap it around a belt loop on pants, belt (if I wore one), perhaps snap it around my wrist, around a bag or through my clothes (although that doesn't work and I don't want holes in my clothes). I was very disappointed. I called Creative and complained about the difference between clip and snap. They easily gave me a return authorization number and I shipped it back yesterday.
Just thought anyone looking for a case and considering the Creative one should know so they may avoid disappointment.
Anyway, I purchased a custom Vaja (vajacustom.com) case yesterday. I should have it in a month. The company is in Miami but everything is made in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Yes, this is the same company as Vajacases.com but now you can customize your case and make it any color you want for the same price. Mine will have a lavendar front and violet back... and yes it will have a belt clip. I seriously researched the clip it came with to avoid that mistake again.
Other Accessories:
I have the Vivid 60 speakers in purple and they are fantastic. Great for the office or any place where its important to hear what's going on around you (i.e., can't wear ear buds).
But I wish there was a docking station in production. Does anyone know if that guy who did zenmicrodock.com is actually going to produce them?

Oh man, I got that case and I hate it. When my Micro is in it, the case doesn't firmly close, and I'm afraid that it will pop open and my Micro will get scratched worse than just being carried around in my pocket.

Creative Zen Xtra stopped loading music with 5.7g space left? H

Ive been using my 30g Creative zen xtra for close to two years loading ripped cds using mediasource. I have .20.8 firmware and have had no problem.Last night with zen showing 5.7 gis of space left I tried to load a few ripped cds as usual using mediasource and usb. The action went the same as usual with mediasorce telling me songs were being tranfered but when completed they were not in player. I tried it a few tims with different usb ports and cords but still songs not in player. The only thing Ive done different is last week I used player interface to delete one cd and it went fine.
My biggest fear is having to reload close to ten thousand songs back into my Zen Xtra if i loose them trying to get transferring to work again. If I use the scandisc feature would that cause my library to need to be reloaded?Perhaps i should just leave well enough alone and just use the zen as a player of all my music and not try to fix it. I know there is 5.7 gigs of space left,I have been encoding my songs at 96 bites so space should not be an issue.Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks [email protected]

Would clean up from recovery mode help solve this problem without loosing my music content?
Hard to say whether it will help but you can try. Cleanup shouldn't delete any of the content unless the player has gone completely haywire.

HILFE......Creative Zen Xtra Firmware Prob

Hallo, leider kann ich nicht englisch, aber meine Hoffnung ist, dass hier jemand deutsch versteht und ich hier Hilfe bekomme. Ich habe mir einen MP3 Player gekauft. Und zwar einen
Creative Zen Xtra 30 GB.
Da ich dachte, dass der Player mit neuer Firmware noch besser funktionieren w rde, habe ich versucht die Firmware 2.0.3.0 zu installieren.
Aber w hrend dem Installieren gab es einen Stromausfall und jetzt geht gar nichts mehr. Jetzt meldet der Player immer: Firmware Problem.
Wenn ich auf Arbeitsplatz gehe, ist der Player aufgef hrt. Aber wenn ich die neue Firmware laden will, erscheint immer: Player nicht angeschlossen.
Ich habe es mit Media Player 9 und 0 und probiert, mit dem gleichen Resultat.
Auf dem Arbeitsplatz erscheint der Player als Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra. Wenn ich ihn dann durch Doppelklick ffne, erscheint Storage Media und darunter steht 20.0 MB frei von 20.0 MB.
Ich bin eine Hausfrau und habe nicht besonders viel Ahnung von all diesen Dingen. Ich m chte nur, dass mein Player wieder funktioniert und ich meine Musik und meine H rb cher wieder h ren kann.
Bitte, bitte, kann mir jemand helfen
F r eure Hilfe jetzt schon ein grosses DANKE.
Gruss Annemarie

Creative Zen Xtra 30gb

Hi,
I'm wondering if any techie guys can help me out here. I bought a 30gb Creative Zen Xtra about 4 years ago. I used to regualy syncronize it with my pc at home. Then one day my hard disk on my PC decided to give up the ghost and died. I carried on using my mp3 player as it was for a while without actually resetting the connection up with my PC. Then one day went about sorting it out but whilst i was in the process, which I would start and often come back to whilst trying to get all the correct drivers etc, it was plugged in via USB and must have fallen off my computer desk and unfortunatly ripped the USB connection component from the mp3 players board. As it was quite an old player anyway I thought i'd have a go at repairing it myself, rather than spend money on what is esentially a bulky 4 year old mp3 player, but I have since given up trying to repair it. Although now I would like to try and transfer the mp3's, which are on the fujitsu 2 /2 inch IDE, dri've to my PC. I have tried using an IDE to USB converter to try and connect it as an additional dri've on my PC which it detects but won't bring it up as an additional dri've (i assume because it's not NTFS or FAT32 formatted). I have also tried using Linux based Fedora to try and mount the dri've, also without any luck (although i'm not overly familiar with using fedora). Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get the information off my dri've, as I would like to buy a new Creative mp3 player and just transfer all these mp3's from my computer rather than have to re-record the hundreds of cd's I had uploaded over time to my Zen Xtra. Also if I have posted this in the wrong section please let me know and I will move the post. Cheers, Gary.Message Edited by hirsty on 09-27-200704:42 PM

I don't know but I certainly hope so!!! It really sucks that my Zen Xtra was bought 2 months too soon and doesn't work with Napster to go!!! I am reallllly hoping that Creative and Napster will work together so that all the creative models will work with Napster to Go!

Creative Zen Xtra USB Driv

I need USB drivers for this player. Can somebody help me?

He is probably having the same problem I am.
All the drivers for the are installed before the player is connected. The Zen Xtra is connected afterwards.
The player connects with Windows XP, is recognized as the Creative Zen Xtra, but when after telling the system to install the drivers, it wants to connect with Windows Update to continue. After the attempt, it says that the drivers for the device were not found.
Looking in the Device Manager reveals that the Zen Xtra has a Code error - The Device is not Configured Properly. All the driver details are Not Available/Unknown.
I have attempted to install this player on 2 different systems with the same result. The Zen Xtra plays and otherwise functions normally. My Firmware Version is 2.0.03. One computer is an AMD64 with Windows XP SP2, the other is an AMD Sempron with Windows XP SPa.
I hope this hel
ps.

Question about Creative Zen Xtra (60 G

Hey guys, I am seriously considering buying a Creative Zen Xtra, but I had one question: Does the Xtra play Mp3 VBR's? I have a lot of these, and I want to make sure they are compatible. Thanks, cya.

Yes, all Creative's players play VBR files.

All of a sudden I can't forward my emails because when I go to choose the people to send them too the window won't pop up. The same thing for any other site that uses a pop up window. What do I do?

It happened all of a sudden, any site that requires a new window to open to sign up for something or to choose something it just won't do it. I can't forward any emails because in order to choose the people I'm sending the email to, a new small window with my address book pops up and Mozilla won't let it happen. How can I change this back to the way it was?

Mike,
Are any of your other applications going wonky, or is it just Logic?
I'm afraid I've never heard of this particular problem before, but if it were happening to me the first thing I would do is delete my "com.apple.logic.express.plist" file in Library>Preferences, then repair permissions in Disc Utility, and finally restart my computer. Then I would launch Logic and see if the problem has been corrected. It's amazing how much these two steps can accomplish.
If that doesn't resolve the issue I would launch Logic and go to Preferences>Audio Units Manager to see if all my plug-ins are properly validated.

Creative Zen Xtra Firmware Upgrade Problems v1

While trying to upgrade the firmware on my Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra, there was a problem with the upgrade. I'm now stuck in rescue mode v.3. When I plug the MP3 player into the computer, Windows will recognize it and asks me what to do. I exit that window and try to run the firmware update again. The firmware program tells me "Your player is not connected, please connect your player."? there are 2 options "Upgrade" and "close". Upgrade is greyed out, but close is clickable. I've tried
1. clean up,
2. format all,
3. reload OS and
4. Reboot.
None of those options seems to do me any good. I've uninstalled all the Creative software from my computer, but still no luck. Please help me. I'm doing my best to avoid having to go buy an iPod, but if I can't get my Creative Mp3 player to work, I guess I will have to. I have spent a lot of money between cables, the docking station and the leather case. I'd hate for all this to be wasted, so please help me.
I've tried to "reload the OS" and then clicked on the language the moment the Player told me to start the update. Someone please shed some light on this for me. I've tried email Customer Support. I've searched Google. I've put my best skills on it and of course I've scoured this website to no prevail. Someone help me out.

READ ALL BEFORE PROCEEDING You do need to install the driver. http://support.creative.com/Products...e=MP3+Players# When you get to the page for your player bottom left the manual selection choose Xp & clik submit the driver should be the first one version 2.0.00 .After the driver is installed when you plug in the player check in device manager to see that it shows up there Start>Control Panel> System>Hardware>Device Manager look under Portable Devices or for the name of the player. Use a rear USB Port to assure a good connection. Then run the firmware file on the computer ,choose reload firmware or Os on the player,choose language when player asks for update(the pop-up from windows indicating that it "sees" the device DO NOT CLOSE IT.)

Creative ZEN Xtra Hangs on EAX Screen, Recovery Scr

Hi there. When I turn on my Zen Xtra it hangs on the EAX opening screen and when I use the Reset switch to go into the Recovery menu the menu shows up but I can't do anything, can't scroll the menu or select the option the menu starts on. I also downloaded the latest firmware for the player and when I tried to install it a message came up saying that the device wasn't connected when it was. Is there any other trick I can use to try to reformat/reinstall firmware?

If you do some research (although I'm going to save you the trouble).. there's this thing called "percussi've maintenance" that you both can try.. where you (at your own risk of course) smack the Zen Xtra on it's side toward your hand.. just give it a good thump, that's all.. thus freeing the hard-dri've's reading head from it's stuck position.
I bought a (supposedly broken) Zen Xtra on ebay for 60 bucks because of the issue you both have explained, and I got it working within thirty seconds after I opened the box. What a steal I keep saying to myself!
And if you happen to have the issue where you boot up the player and it goes from the 'Creative' screen to the 'EAX' screen, off and then on again, doing this in a continuous loop.. all you've got is a dead battery that needs to be properly charged. I bought another (supposedly broken) Zen Xtra on ebay, this time for 75 bucks, where I took the battery out, plugged in the 5V power adapter, let the thing boot up, waited until the backlight went off (it won't work unless the very minimum amount of juice is being pulled.. no backlight, usb connecting, music playing, etc.), and then dropped the battery back in while it was on.. and voila! A jump-started battery charge.
Sorry I crammed it into so short of an explanation.. I'm in a rush.. please feel free to message me privately with any questions.. But that should do it for y'all.

Creative zen xtra vs sony ericsson mp3 functional

I have both the sony ericsson w800i mobile (cellphone) and zen xtra 30 gb mp3 player. In my experience the sony software is far superior to that of creative in terms of reliability and functionality.
From the time I bought my zen xtra I have been totally frustrated by it - I have only been able to load a few tracks at a time from my pc before I get the familiar error message and 20 second timer. The xtra is not recognised sometimes, other times it starts when connected to the pc. I have tried this with several usb leads on 3 separate computers, all with more than adequate system resources to cope with the simple task of transfering mp3 tracks down a usb2 lead to the zen xtra. I have tried every tip, workround, on the support site. Nothing I have done has made any difference. I have reset the player, rebooted my computer, updated latest firmware, updated windows media player 0, followed the guidance to ensure that the usb settings in the registry are correct.
NOTHING WORKS!!!! THIS PRODUCT IS RUBBISH!!!!
By contrast, my Sony w800i phone has a very easy to use mp3 player, with a software interface called disc2phone which is a complete joy to use. Just 3 simple boxes, a couple of add or remove buttons and it is simplicity itself!!!
Clearly the phone has only a small memory, but due to the problems with the creative software, the phone has more music on it than the xtra!!!
Come on creative....Sort this problem out before I finally head for the nearest ipod store.

Hi,
Make sure you have the Playsforsure firmware on the Zen Xtra player.

Fixing the creative zen xtra - creative firmware won't bring me dow

Hi all,
Recently my zen xtra crashed as a result of Creative's shoddy firmware! Anyway, I'm out of warrenty, creative want to try charge me about 20 quid and I ain't having that (read my other posts you'll hear the whole story)
Well now I've decided I'm gonna try fix things myself. I've ripped my player apart to reveal the 2.5" harddri've. I've got hold of a caddie to hold this in and connected to the computer. Dri've is not recognised (as i suspected, the firmware has corrupted toc and whathaveyou). So I'm formatting the dri've now, seems to be going ok (i'm thinking if I can't get the player working again at least I can make a 40gb external mini hard dri've)
Anyway, what I need now is to compare this hard dri've to another zen xtra one thats working and well. If anyone has (for some bizarre reason) backed up their zen dri've in this way cause you let me know. I need to know the file structure that it uses (as the software hides the real structure) and also the firmware (a working copy please!) that is as how it is installed rather than by using the installation software for the more conventional way :smileytongue:
Any help with that is appreciated, and those of you who are like me and have a ?200 paperweight should consider making it an external dri've like this also. (cheap caddies on ebay for those who want to know!)
hope this helps
phil

if i get a friend's zen xtra dri've and put it in mine, would you reckon it would work or am i likely to bugger up that too?
if the firmware is part in hardware then i doubt there's a lot i can do, but my intention was to copy my friend's dri've to mine then put it in and see if it works...
any ideas?
