Are you regretting your creative mp3 playe

hey i read some post on how people were regreting ever buying creative mp3s...and most ppl seem to be considering..ipods... DONT!!!!! bad mistake i have a creative n200 and a ipod shuffle they both have same memory but the ipod is soo hard to use..the battrey reads wrong...files dissapear..only last 4 like 3 hours.. i made the biggest mistake wanting an ipod...and yet my n200 works fine..i've dropped it so many times.. and its been thru heck..
check out www.ipodsdirtysecret.com this is the reason i will never use any thing from apple again.. i trusted them

Once I got the hang of how to work my Zen Micro 5G I loved it, and thought it was the best alternati've to the I-Pod. Then I had problems with the battery--then the firmware--now I can't use it at all.
Big complaints:
) <EM>Inadequate hands-on instructions: </EM>the fact that the instruction manual is not included but had to be downloaded--and you had to KNOW that it had to be downloaded--from their site. May not seem a big deal but I like good step-by-step instructions and problem solving w/o having to always go online. A manual accompanying the player would have saved me a headache or two.
2) <EM>Battery charging</EM>: Zen's tech support told me that it was bad to leave the player plugged in to the charger for too long, that it would hurt it. Well, that rings kind of false--my b-friend keeps his I-Pod in his charger all teh time and he's never had a problem with it. Same with our cell phones and cordless phones, and dustbuster and all other products.
3) <EM>Key pad too sensiti've</EM>--enough said there.

  • Why we love our Creative mp3 play

    Alright, we all know that there are problems with various mp3 players....but let show some love for Creative. Post what you love about your Creative mp3 player!

    I've had a 5 Gb Zen Micro for about 8 months now. It's my second DAP.
    I returned my Sony MiniDisk in frustration after two days. Its software, copying restrictions [it wouldn't let me burn a copy of tracks that my son's band did onto my CD-R] and the incredibly long time it took to transfer tracks was too much for me.
    There was a learning curve for the Zen Micro at first. For a week or two I seriously contemplated returning it, too. All the horror stories on the forum of dead players, faulty jacks made me doubt my purchase.
    I stuck with it though, and am glad I did.
    The key deal-breaker for me on the iPod was the non-replaceable battery.
    There's a certain 'holier than thou' attitude that seems to go with the iBorg that always put me off, too.
    Great sound: check
    FM radio: check
    Features galore: check
    User-friendly: check
    Replaceable battery: check
    All in all, it's a superior value for me.Message Edited by skb on 0-0-2005 07:37 PM

  • How do you get your songs to play after you authorized the computer your on?

    how do you get your songs to play after you authorized the computer your on itunes?

    Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola.
    If it's a Mac, try Senuti or Music Rescue.

  • Save 50% when you upgrade your Creative Cloud web hosting, don't work for me

    I got this e-mail: Save 50% when you upgrade your Creative Cloud web hosting.
    I would like to upgrade my homepages, but I cannot come through with my  login,  when I use this login to redeem: http://businesscatalyst.com/promo/creative-cloud
    But when I am on my own admin pages, and use the same login as I used above I can come through. What is wrong??
    It is something wrong with this link: https://ava.worldsecuresystems.com/Admin/Index.aspx?OURL=businesscatalyst.com&to=
    Please help me, as I want Creative Cloud site to the next level as soon as possible.

    Hello,
    I believe this question was already answered via ticket #57102 - please see my response to that ticket for further details regarding the needed steps.
    What I was trying to explain in my previous reply is that you can upgrade any Creative Cloud site directly through each site's admin area, not necessarily through the link mentioned on the promo page...
    If you still have login issues with your Adobe ID (the updated email address) please access adobe.com -> Sign in -> Trouble signing in? to reset your password.
    Please try that and let us know if that worked.
    Kind regards,
    Diana

  • Which is better? The i-pod or Creatives mp3 playe

    I am conducting a survey and I just wanted to know what everyone think. Is the I-pod better than Creatives mp3 players? If it is, why. Also, why is Creative mp3 players better. Thanks for your contribution.

    iPods are nice and have a good amount of features. The iTunes online store is fantastic; very easy and nicely priced. You can't fault Apple for what they've been able to do- grab the mindshare for the MP3 market.
    However, I have to side with the- SHOCK- WMA side of things.
    The problem I wound up having with iTunes is that, if I want to choose a player for my purchased tunes, short of burning/ripping, was to buy an iPod.
    However, buying with WMA, you have more choices, and you're not locked in. In fact, when I decided to change MP3 players, I went from a Zen Xtra to a Zen Touch. I really like the Creative brand. The interface is easy, I find, and I don't think Creative Mediasource is the dog that some have made it out to be. I looked at the Samsung YH-925GS, an Ipod (20GB), Zen Micro, and Rio Karma. I kept coming back to the Zen Touch. I think it looks great, handles great, has awesome battery life, is CHEAPER, and is the right size, both physically and with disk space.
    So, yes, Creative is better.

  • How do you get your playlist to play in order arranged? My shuffle is off.

    I created a playlist, when I play it on my computer, it plays it in the order as I arranged it. When I play it on my Ipod, it shuffles, nut my shuffle function is off. Any ideas?

    Are you sure it's actually shuffling the songs (i.e. the list of songs play in a different order each time through the list)?
    You may need to re-order this playlist in iTunes as resync it to your device.

  • Use of two Creative MP3-Play

    Hello community,
    is it possible to use two Creative MP3-Players (Zen touch(20GB) + Zen micro) on one PC? I don't want to upload the same music on both players.
    Thanks for your Answers!
    P.S.: Sorry for my bad english, I'm from Germany
    edit: I want to use the automatic actualisation for the files and this is only possible with the "Creative MediaSource Organizer". Is there the possibility to have different profiles for the two players?Message Edited by GoldenEi on 04-3-2006 02:26 AM

    I have a Zen Touch and a Creative Muvo and you can connnect them both at the same time on media source. I have no problems with it. As long as you have the latest version for the micro I can't see a problem.

  • News on Creative MP3 Play

    If your an unhappy customer of particularly, the Zen Micro, and considering, a new player, or wondering to get a Creative MP3 players at all, this will give reason to why you might not want to deal with Creative.
    http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/2005084/...NlYwMlJVRPUCUl

    I don't see anything in there that should give someone cause to "avoid Creative".
    I don't think that this will be a constructi've topic at all, and will probably just result in bashing, so I'm closing it.

  • Poll: Are you pleased your Vista Drivers and their current featur

    So my question goes who here uses their Sound Card to do more such as decode Dolby Digital (any kind) for SPDIF IN/OUT or any other function that enables you to do more for your home entertainment system, that Vista currently doesn't support?
    POLL:
    Are you pleased with your Vista Drivers and their current features? (A respectable question)
    Yes
    or
    No

    Why is it that people think they have all these "rights"? There is a difference between a "right" and a "privilege". It is painfully obvious that most people who say that have a "right" to do something don?t know what their rights are at all.
    First and foremost, moderating a privately owned forum is not a violation of anyone's "rights". Before someone complains about their "right to free speech" being violated because of a forum moderator, you need to understand about the right to "free speech" in "America" (Actually you should say in the U.S. because Cuba is part of "America" as well and they don't have a constitutionally guaranteed "right to free speech" ) applies to CONGRESS and what CONGRESS can't do. Basically, it restricts the government, not private citizens and private forums.
    And even though you may have the "right" to say something, it doesn't mean that anyone here has to listen to you...and that includes the moderators and forum owner. In other words, they can tell you to shut up by locking or deleting a topic. If you want to practice your ?right? beyond that, open your door and shout at the top of your lungs?and when the police show up, you can'tell them?all about your ?rights?

  • A1/K1 Are you keeping your tablets on or no ?

    Hey Guys,
    I'm just thinking.. Our Tablets can be considered like a something between phones which almost everyone never turn off and notebooks which almost everyone turn off when he don't need him. So there's coming question. How often do you turn your tablets off ? 
    E.g.. If you turn off your tablet at night.
    BTW. I know awful English, sorry about that.

    My K1 is always on too.
    When I let it time-out and blank the screen by itself (or when I blank the screen using the screen lock widget) it often lights up the scren when it collects e-mail, checks for updates etc. However, when I blank the screen using the on/off button, it seems to stay blanked and the only way to know it's still on is by the occasional blink of the white LEDs beside the Home button.
    The only time I actually turn the K1 off and on is when a newly downloaded app seems to be behaving weirdly. That usually fixes the problem.

  • How do you get your Ipod to play on your Creative Gigiworks S750?

    I have an Ipod and I was wondering how you get it to play off of your speakers?

    tuggy,
    Just as ronin_sx has mention, the M-Port only works with M-Port compatible player such as the Creative Nomad Muvo NX MP3 player so ipod won't work.

  • How Often Do You Use Your Creative Play

    i use my zen micro about once every 2-4 days, or whenver im on the road. i guess the less u use it, the less chance the jack will break?(hope not jinxing it)

    it really depends on normal school days i was using it about 4 hours a day.
    whilst revisiong for my a-levels i would be in the libary all day so probably about 8-0 hours a day.
    now im on my supper holiday i use it about an hour a day.unless im doing something special, like car journey.
    btw, this is my zen micro. hence why the full battery was a big issue to me.
