Audio File Not Valid! on Zen Sleek Ph

Hello!
I've had a Zen SleekPhoto for a few days, and was initially delighted, until I realized that a significant part of my music collection will not transfer to the player.
I have many mp3 files which result in this message from Zen Sleek Photo Media Explorer when I try to send them to the player:
"Cannot Copy 'somefile.mp3': the audio file is not valid or not recognized. Do you want to skip this file?"
When I try to send the files using WinAmp, it just skips them without informing me.
What does this mean
!!! These are all mp3 files with ID3 tags filled in. They play just fine on WinAmp, iTunes, and Windows Media Player. I'm sorry to say that I cannot give encoding details about all of them, as I have neraly a decade worth of encoding different disks on different computers at different times represented here.
Is there some type of mp3 this player will not play? Most are 28K mp3s.
Firmware .0.0
Windows XP system.
If I cannot get this player to play half my collection of music, I will have to return it to the store, which is a shame, as it seemed so promising. I would be grateful for any help.
A friend who got a Zen Sleek Photo a few days ago is also having the same problem on a different computer, with a different music collection entirely.Message Edited by celticchrys on 05-25-2006 0:45 PM

cheers for that,I didnt mean the clicking on the touch pad but the clicking coming from inside the player :smileytongue:I have found some other threads about it and it does seem to be normal...which is?good ...cheers for the replies

  • Watch folder "render control file not valid"

    I'm using cc 2014 on my main workstation and render nodes. I can't get the render engine to accept a job because I get the "render control file not valid" error when setting the watch folder. But, I can use the render engine on my main workstation and the job will start just fine. That leads me to believe its a permissions problem, but all of my network computers are set up to work as a 3d animation render farm and it all works pretty well with all computers being able to read and write to each other with full permissions.
    Is there anything else I can look at that might help? Thanks in advance.

  • Just upgraded my workstation and render nodes to AE CC 2014 and now I receive a "render control file not valid" upon rendering out.

    I just upgraded my workstation and render farm to AE CC 2014 and now I receive a "render control file not valid" on my render nodes when I try and render out an image sequence. Any ideas why the update would cause this? All my machines are updated to the latest version of AE CC 2014. Thanks!

    Sorry I meant "Update". I was using AE CC, Installed AE CC 2014 on all my machines recently.

  • Logic Pro X: Audio file not found?

    I have Logic Pro X, and this problem has never occurred before but...
    I was mixing one of my songs and everything was perfect, then I made sure to save it.
    As I reopened literally 10 seconds later (not sure why I even closed it) it was showing me a message that said "Audio file not found"
    At least 12 audio files went missing out of nowhere. It's only the files recorded from Logic that are not found.
    I tried to locate them through my Finder but I don't know where my audio files are stored onto my macbook, and it doesn't seem to be in an easily accessible place.
    It's just weird because they were all fine just before I closed Logic, then they disappeared.
    I checked the audio bin in Logic and they seem to be there but they seem corrupted.
    If anyone can help, or at least show me where audio files are stored on your mac from recording through Logic, that may help.
    Thank you.

    To clarify:
    Logic Pro X
    I have also experienced this issue as a result of having recording delay set other than zero, and rectified it by returning to 0.
    Otherwise,
    [Command 8] or
    Window > Open Project Audio, select audio files that appear flatline, click 'Audio File' menu at top left, click 'Refresh Overview(s)'.
    No way I know of to auto-enable this.

  • Audio file not support

    I am using a folio overlays for a digital publication and insert audio files. While inserting the audio file not supported. The following error was occurred. Please advice.

  • When i try to open my projekt in logic pro x it say audio files not found?

    when i try to open up a projekt in logic pro x it say audio files not found why is this heppends? 

    This error typically means the audio files you used in this project are no longer found in their original location.. (did you move or delete them?) or you have renamed the audio files..... or they were located on an external HD etcand that drive or disk is no longer available.... because its not plugged in.

  • Logic X EXS24 - audio file not found

    I know this question crops up often and is usually a Garageband/missing downloadable contents issue but that's not the case here.
    I'm a long time Logic user (pre Apple)  and can usually work my way around issue or find answers online, but I'm completely stuck with this one.
    I've been running my current setup for about eight months now (new Mac Pro, latest versions of Logic Pro and OS) with no problem at all.
    I have an extensive sound library stored on external drives (Pegasus2) via Firewire and everything has been zipping along, then yesterday for no know reason EXS24 suddenly gives me the "audio file not found" message when trying to create a new instrument.
    All previously created EXS24 instruments load just fine as the audio files were copied onto the project drive, but Logic no longer sees the library on my external drive.
    The external drive is working just fine (troubleshooting shows no errors or issues) and I can access it just fine, load sounds into other applications etc), I can also manually drag individual samples into my EXS24 instrument so that it "sees" them, but very impractical to do this with so many audio files, and obviously that's not how it's supposed to work.
    I thought I had found a workaround yesterday by making an alias of the folder containing the sound library and copying the alias to User/Music/Audio Music Apps and that worked while I was working yesterday, but on loading Logic today the problem is back.
    I've reindexed the drive in question with Spotlight..
    As mentioned, this setup has worked for months (and for years on my previous hardware) but suddenly Logic can no longer see those files via EXS24.
    Any suggestions as to why this suddenly happened, and more importantly, on a permanent fix?
    B.

    It doesn't really matter where you put the samples, as the EXS will search for them when you try to load an instrument that references them.
    The reason why the "davidfelton" bit is in there, is that the location of the samples is stored inside EXS files. At load time, if the samples are not at that location, the EXS will search for them, and once found, will write the new location back to the EXS file so it doesn't have to search next time.
    If the EXS cannot find your samples, then open the EXS preferences and make sure your default search locations will find the files (ie you don't have it set to look on one drive, when the samples are on a different one).
    Or you can use the project managers "resolve" function to update the sample locations to all the EXS files in one go.
    Any probs, post back...

  • "Error Result code = -43" AND "Audio file not found"

    In Garageband I was trying to  click Join, but kept getting "Error Result code = -43"
    What does this mean?
    Also, I thought saving the file and restarting Garageband would help, but upon re-opening the program BIG problem: the file (just this one, others are opening fine) has this error message upon opening "Audio file “07 I See the Light.aif” not found!"

    so do I have to basically start over?
    for that one recording, it looks like it.
    the error -43 is a system level error, so i HIGHLY doubt this will help, however you can ctrl-click the project file, choose Show Package Contents, open the media folder and preview any audio files in there to see if the missing file is there, but in all likelihood, you will need to re-record it

  • Audio files not embedding with .avi files in CS4

    I am working on a project in Premiere Pro CS4. I successfully captured with firewire a number of clips and the audio embedded with the clip ( one .avi file shows up in explorer under the project. When I went back into the project, first, there was no audio captured at all and I did'nt notice until I had captured half of the clips (45 minutes). I don't know what happened there. Now, the audio is attached to the .avi file, but is not embedded like the previous captured files.   Example First capture: File Name : Harlem 01.avi  audio is embedded   2nd Capture  Guilford 01.avi  and Guilford 01. Stereo 1.wav
    Why aren't the .avi files and the audio files embedded and combined as one file anymore?
    Thanks for any help.

    >Matrox card
    The comment I have often seen is to the effect that "a Matrox card makes a good door stop"
    For a Firewire transfer you don't need any "card" at all, only a Firewire port... usually on the motherboard
    That said... and you mentioning switching back and forth between different Matrox modes... I would guess that, yes, you selected a wrong option
    But, since I don't use Matrox, I have no idea what setting could be wrong (I do use a Pinnacle Dv500 via dual boot with WinXP to digitize some old VHS tapes before they stop playing... but once I had settings that worked to create AVI files that ARE Audio Video Interleave with everything in one file, I have never changed any of the Dv500 settings)

  • Page document with audio file not sent by email

    Hello and blessed Christmas to everybody.
    Here is my problem.
    I created a pages documents with images and an audio file from iTunes inside.
    Sharing it by Mail, (and converting it in PDF so that anybody without pages be able to open it) I see that the audio file is not present or not playing inside my mail.
    Is this because of the conversion in PDF?
    But I'm afraid of PC user not being able to see it if I let it in Pages.
    Thanks for your tips.

    Of course! I must have been inattentive.      AsI don't have Adobe acrobat pro I sent everything in word and pages.
    Thanks

  • Windows 2000 not supported by Zen Sleek installation softwar

    I have Windows XP at home and MS 2000 at work. I was successful with the Zen Sleek installation software at home, but cannot get the sfotware to install on my work copmputer which is running Windows 2000. What's the deal? The requirements are listed as Windows 98/2000/ME/XP, but at the beginning of the installation, it stops with the message that the application will not run on this operating system.
    And are there any other pitfalls to trying to run the Zen Sleek with two different operating systems? I was hoping to get my Zen Sleek to act as my MS Outlook calendar and contacts carrier when I want to travel light.

    On your Windows XP computer if the Sleek is recognized as an MTP Device or you see the words MTP anywhere when it first got detected, or everytime when you connect it and a window appears with the words MTP on it, then this means that the Sleek will ONLY work on Windows XP. The software might say that it will work with 2000/98/Me, but it comes down to if the Sleek will work with those OS's.
    So if you see the words MTP anywhere, then it wont work with anything but Windows XP.

  • S.O.S.  Audio files not showing up in Podcast

    OK, here's the deal. After I submit new audio files for inclusion in my podcast at iTunes, the new files show up in the xml file, but not in the Podcast. I use a third party application (Podcast Maker). Does Apple provide a native way of adding audio files to podcasts? I need to get this fixed fast. Thanks!

    You can edit podcasts using GarageBand.

  • Overview for audio files not showing up in project.

    I just got a new mac, transferred everything over, and everything is working great except...
    I have lost the overviews of all of my wav files for one song.
    please help ^_^

    "Does it display overviews of newly added audio files in the arrange?"
    no it does not
    "If not you would have to export tracks to audio files and import them into a new project file."
    that would stink...
    any other ideas, i really don't want to have to export all of those tracks, and then add the 40 or so plugins back in
    also, bouncing over and over can create problems, so i prefer to only bounce once (final)

  • Failing to import my own audio files (not copy protected files)

    I'm having trouble getting external audio files to import properly into GarageBand, most specifically MP3 files. These aren't copy protected audio files, these are files I've created myself in other programs and unprotected MP3 sound effects clips downloaded from various web sites.
    Here's what happens, I open GB and create a new project. I find the audio file that I want to start with, an MP3 file that plays just fine in QuickTime and iTunes. I drag the audio file into GB to create a new track. GB begins a conversion/import process or whatever it does to be able to edit an MP3 file. I see the progress bar filling up as it does this. When it is complete a new track is created with the MP3 file's name, however the track itself is empty. I don't see any content and there is no audio when I hit play. I don't get any sort of error message either.
    I've tried playing with the MP3 file settings, changing them to mono, adjusting bit rates, compression, etc. but every time I try to import into GB this same process happens with no results. These audio files I'm creating play in all my other audio playing apps, so I'm confused as to what could be wrong.
    Can someone tell me how I can get GB to import these files properly? Thanks in advance!

  • Guitar Lesson 2 - Audio file not found

    This is the error I receive when I try to load "Guitar Lesson 2" of the "Learn to Play" lessons. (Audio file "Guitar2GTRs2MiXv3.caf" not found.) I've tried deleting and re-downloading the lesson several times. I found the missing file but only when I browse to it myself, nothing appears in Spotlight. This is the only lesson I'm having this problem with. Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks for referring me to the proper thread. It works fine now. I was deleting only the downloaded lesson not the cached lesson file. Hopefully Apple will check into this.
    ~
    1. Quit GarageBand.
    2. Goto /Users/<your username>/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Working Copies
    3. Delete the Guitar Lesson 2_Chords - G, C
    4. Start GarageBand up and enjoy Lesson 2.
