Creative ZEN_How to convert mp3 fil

Hi!
Somebody can please tell me how to convert mp3 files ti wma files for my Creative ZEN.
My old Zev V Plus did it automatically.
Thank u,
bye

"Because wma files take less space than mp3 files. "
That is a myth. For lower bitratrate files, such as 6 kbps or 32 kbps, WMA files will sound a bit better than mp3 files at the same bitrate. Files at such low bitrates are typically lectures and podcasts, and not music. Music files are usually 28 kbps and up. At
those bitrates, there is little quality difference between WMA and MP3 files at the same bitrate. WMA files do take more processor power to decode though, so expect shorter battery life when playing WMA files rather than mp3 files. Furthermore, recompressing files that are already compressed will result in lower sound quality. For example, if you have some mp3 files at 256 kbps and want them on your player at 60 kbps to save space, you should make the 60 kbps mp3 files from the CD, and not from the 256 kbps mp3 files if you want the 60 kbps mp3 files to be the best quality they can be.

How do I transfer mp3 files into my Zen touch playe

Hi guys / gals,
I am the most " illiterate" person on earth when it comes to MP3 files and Creative is not very customer friendly so I really need you help.
I have all my MP3 files loaded but I don't know how to transfer them to my Zen touch and creative "WON'T" respond to my questions.
Can someone please help me ? Thanks.

Open up Normand Explorer and plug in your Zen (download all the drivers and stuff first" From Normand Explorer, go to Zen Touch, Music. Then just copy/past or drag all your songs into Normand Exploere, and the music goes onto the Touch.

How to convert .MP3 files into .AAC with iTunes 10.5.2

Im running a Mac OS X 10.5.8, and my iTunes version is 10.5.2.
I want to convert .MP3 files into .AAC using iTunes, but no option is given for me. What should I do?

im not going to change all my songs into AAC, I was experiementing around with making ringtones for my iphone. I can open a song in Garageband, and export it as an AAC file to my itunes, but it is very annoying. I remember older versions of itunes having a "Convert to AAC" option, but i can't find it anymore on this current version of itunes.
Basically, I want to convert a couple songs into AAC to create ringtones out of them.

Need help converting project file from Creative Cloud to CS6

Hello.
I started a project file on the Adobe Creative Cloud and I am trying to convert the file to CS6 (as that is what all my editors have). I have all of my time codes generated in Creative Cloud and I need the easiest solution to share the file across platforms with out corrupting it. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
-A*

I am the director of the project- so I am not very technically inclined to answer these questions, but will try my best. My lead editor dropped out of the project leaving me very confused and I am trying to establish a new workflow based off of her existing project file.
The original project was started in Adobe Creative Cloud. I am now trying to use Adobe CS6 and I am trying to figure out if we can convert a file from Creative Cloud > CS6. If you can provide a list of questions for me to ask my previous editor I can direct them to her and try to provide a more concise answer. Thanks for your help.

How to move mp3 files from NOMAD ZEN JUKEBOX to PC???

Hello there!
I have the creative nomad extra jukebox zen 30gb player. I have big trouble to move my mp3 to my pc! Is there any way to do this? I can do it with sync but some of the songs have the same name ( 0,02,03) and even when those songs are in folders,the software ( media source) dont recognize it this way-so it will skip the ones with same name and Ill loose some of the tracks. Is there any other way to move it all? or also to choose only certain mp3 files to be moved other software maybe? thank you very much!

Part numbers beginning with P are usually promotion items.
You can buy a stack of 'em & give to employees, grand openings, etc.
They are the same as regular retail iPod, just a different model number. http://www.apple.com/ipod/imaging/
Looks like you have a black, 30GB video iPod.
Here's a great place to start to learn how to use iTunes and the iPod.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod101/
I went to preferences and set the music file address to the folder which contains all of my MP3 files. I
That will tell iTunes to use this folder. iTunes does not "watch" this folder to see if anything is added. You have to add it to the library yourself and iTunes will put it in this folder under Artist -> Album.
If you IMport a file, it will convert it to the format set in teh iTUnes prefs. If you Add a file, it will simply add it to the library in the format it already is.
To get music into iTunes;
- insert a CD and select Import.
- click on iTunes Music Store and purchase songs.
- go to iTunes menu - File -> Add (Folder or file) to library and select the file/folder.
- Drag songs onto iTunes.
To get music onto the iPod;
- Plug it in.
Yeah, it really is that simple.
Easiest way to manage your library is to use iTunes.
Edit the ID3 tags, add delete songs and put them onto the iPod.

Windows Media Player 11 not recognizing files on Creative Zen X-Fi?

I recently made an attempt to synchronize the files on my Creative Zen X-Fi to my Windows Media Player library to transfer them to my other MP3 player, however I receive this message when I attempt to view the files and sync them: "There are no files on this device. To begin, sync files to the device." The files are definitely existent as I can listen to and view them on the device and WMP has recognized there is only 8 MB of space remaining. Could you help me resolve this problem? Thank you

Hi,
Can you please try transfering these songs using Windows Explorer to see if it goes through?

Can't Transfer WMA file to Creative Zen Plus

Can anyone help? I've checked out and downloaded a wma from from Net Library. The file plays on my computer in Windows Media Player 0, but when I try to transfer it to my Zen Plus, I get an error.
Thanks,
Kathy

First, I assume you are talking about a Zen V Plus 4GB, as there isn't a Zen Plus, as far as I know. I would go back and check NetLibrary for computer and player requirements. Is this a "renew your license for 2 days"(No download, only license to play ) If so, it won't let you redownload the audiobook.
I have found NetLibrary to be very difficult for using with MP3 Players. Make sure that Windows Media Player has downloaded the license and then shut it off. I go to the folder where I store my NetLibrary audiobooks and make sure my player is plugged in and the computer recognizes it. Highlight my chosen audiobook, Then right click, and choose Copy to Creative Zen V Plus, media library. It should download from there. It is a much easier method than trying to use WMP 0/ for the download.
Hope this helps a little.

How can I convert MP3 file to AIFF to use in FCP?

Hi guys,
How can I convert an MP3 file to AIFF file to use it in Final Cut Pro?
Anyone please,
Thanks in advance,
Zia

#5 Imported music from CD or iTunes
Shane's Stock Answer #5:
To get music into FCP, it needs to be an AIFF file at 48khz, 16 bit stereo. So if you want a song from a CD, you go into the iTunes Preferences and set this up under the IMPORTING tab:
File > preferences > importing > import using - AIFF encoder > Setting - Custom
Sample Rate - 48.000 kHz
Sample size - 16 bit
Channels - Stereo
If you have an mp3 that you want to use, then you can convert it thru iTunes as well.
If the piece of music you want to use is something you purchased thru iTunes, I'm afraid I can't help you there. There are copywrite issues that prevent files from being converted into the format that FCP can recognize.

How to transfer files from Creative Zen Touch to Creative Vision:

Is there a way to transfer my music files from my Creative Zen Touch to my Vision:M?If so, can someone tell me how to do this. ?I know this has probably been asked before but I am new on this message board and am in need of assistance. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If you have both the player and you're using MediaSource, just connect both the player to the computer, select one of the player as source and the other as destination and just transfer over it. Note, protected content will not be transfer over though.

Itnues 10.1 update wom't convert MP3 files to ACC files

Grrr having a nightmare at the moment. I'm trying to convert some MP3 files to ACC format but the option has gone from the drop down menu. This has only been since I updated to 10.1. What is going on with Apple at the moment. Has anyone else had this problem and if so did you manage to resolve it? I did try to go back a version but that is no good :0( woud really appreciate some advice
Thanks
Maria

could be a permissions problem. try this:
check if you have read & write permissions for your music folder. in finder, right-click on it and +get info+. unlock the little padlock (you may have to enter your admin password) and change the permission settings. next, click on the little gear-shaped icon and +apply to enclosed items+ like so
the important part is to *apply to enclosed items* !
also try repairing permissions on your startup disk using *disk utility* (in applications/utilities). don't worry if you see strange errors ➠ _*permission repair messages you can safely ignore*_.
as long as you see +permissions repair complete+ @ the end, you're in the green.

How can I have iTunes find its newly converted mp3 files?

Hi,
I am not a power user. I have a playlist that is apparently composed of different file formats. So when I tried to burn them to a CD it gave me 92 songs that could not be burned as an mp3. I then chose to convert them to mp3. It apparently did it because I looked for the files in finder and saw the mp3 versions.
How can I now have iTunes use THOSE new mp3 files for burning? There must be a simple way to do that.
Thanks,
Jorge

Thanks Jim,
Is there any way to list them by "type"? I made the playlist from several playlists and I am sure that some of the offending songs are from several of those playlists.
I tried tricking iTunes into writing them onto a cd by just dumping the new MP3 duplicates into the same list and then telling it to burn. I then expected it to tell me the same 92 songs could not be written and planned to just tell it to skip those since now had them in as MP3s but it is now telling me that it will require more than one CD. Is that because the files are now bigger or because it is counting the 92 files that it will not be writing anyway?
Thanks,
Jorge

Brand spanking new to MP3 and my Creative Zen To

Hi Folks Hope you can help with this one. My mate has gone off travelling the world, and upgraded his MP3 player, and gave me his Creative Zen Touch 20gb player. He gave me all the leads, but no instruction book or driver CD. However, when I connected it to my PC running XP, it couldn't see it at all, and on my wife's laptop running Vista it could see it, but wanted the installation CD, and wouldn't communicate from the web-page with it. Do I need the installation CD, or am I being a total numpty with it, and missing something extremely easy ? Answers in the form of less than one syllable would be great !! Thanks for looking in

CHARGE THE BATTERY FULLY BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING? ELSE. And you were concerned you might not get it Ok I really don't like instructing people on firmware updates since alot of people have trouble doing them unless they really know what to do if it goes awry. So if you feel confident about doing this go back to the page where you found the driver & download the Plays For Sure Firmware? ver. 2..0? to your desktop. READ THE DETAILS FOR THAT FIRST . Truth is good thing you never had any creative software on your computer before trust me that's a Huge plus. It won't be interfering with the update since you don't have any on there. Don't even try to backup any music that may be on the player since you don't have any creative software other than the driver. Remember READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST >BEFORE YOU TRY TO UPDATE FIRMWARE? Good Luck Let Me know how it goes. BTW where on the planet are you? I'm in So. California. During the upgrade windows autoplay will most likely open ? IGNORE IT DON'T CLOSE IT OUT.

Converting mp3 file to AIFF

Hi, I'm making my way through a how to book called "Logic Pro 7 and Logic Pro Express 7," right now. I'm at a stage in Lesson 4 where I'm supposed to add an mp3 file to the Audio Window for a song that I'm working on. I dragged three AAIF files in and there was no issue. But I keep trying to add an mp3 file to the Audio window. I select "add audio file" and then I get to the "open file" window. When I add the mp3 file, it appears in the box, but above it, it says, "no audio file selected." When I hit "done", I get 3 rejection windows. The first two say, "could not create file." Then the third says, "Beat mp3 file, what kind of file is this?" In the book, it says that the mp3 should automatically convert to AAIF, but this isn't happening. Is there anything that I'm clearly not doing?? Thanks

I had exactly this problem some time ago - the command to import mp3 is messed up so if you try and add a file from the Audio menu you will get what you describe.
However you dont even need to use Waveburn - instead adjust Logic's window so you can see a bit of your Desk Top .. then open the directory where your MP3 file is stored that you want to bring into Logic - and just drag it Window to Window .. from the desk top straight into Logic's Audio Window next to the other audio files
