Creative Mediasource Not Work

I have Creative Mediasource 2.x which came with my Soundblaster audio card. It was working fine until I tried to update it over Creatives automatic update. While?it still plays music, it has lost access to all of it's add ons:? graphic equalizer, EAX, surround sound, THX, etc. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall and the same problems exist. I get the error message:? "the audio device supported by this application is not detected". I just want my old capabilities back. Thanks.

It sounds like you are trying to install firmware and not Media Source. You might wan to make sure you downloaded the right thing.Message Edited by FuturePilot on 0-2-2006 09:08 PM

Creative MediaSource not detecting my creative zen to

I'm having trouble with my Creative Zen Touch. In Creative MediaSource, in the sources part on the left hand side, it does not detect my Creative Zen Touch and therefore i cannot transfer music. Any help would be much appreciated. PS when i plug my Creative Zen Touch into the computer using the usb port, the computer detects the device and i have an option to "take no action" or "Transfer files using Windows Media Player".

I am also having this problem, but in order to download from the zen to the pc, I will have to have everything erased off the Zen, and there is an important recording I want to load to my PC first. There is no where in my creative media source since I updated my firmware to load from Zen to PC like there used to be. Any suggestions?
Thank you.

Creative Mediasource not detecting Zen To

Hi
Just reinstalled windows'but can't find my Zen Touch CD anywhere. The only software i ever use is the Creative Mediasource to transfer my MP3's onto the Player.
I went to Creatives Website and downloaded the Mediasource which is there V3.30.2. It looks slightly never than my old version. I also installed the Driver that was on the creative site and that seemed to install ok.However when i plug in my Zen after i start up the Mediasource it does'nt seem to detect the Zen and i can nothing with it. The Zen's definately connected and working ok because when i go into MY COMPUTER it is showing and i can browse the files.
Any idea?
Thanx

Try this, it was in the knowledgebase. I actually had the same problem and this fixed it.

Creative Mediasource not detecting

Downloaded Mediasource 5. Not detecting new Zen 32 GB.

I realize there's probably a specific plugin or driver that I need, but I can't seem to find a working link on the Creative site. Can anyone provide me with a direct link?
Also, I have a Creative NOMAD Jukebox Zen Xtra from back in the day - with the old Mediasource software. Is there a way to get both Zens to work with one Mediasource so that I only have to keep one version on my PC. Thanks?
Also, anyone have any thoughts on how they like working the Zen with Windows Media Player. Would you recommend switching to that instead of Mediasource? I've been pretty happy with Mediasource (except for the fact that it doesn't recognize "The" the way itunes does).

X-fi platinum W8 x64 creative console not working

I installed beta driver but get error when trying to open console. should it be working? I'm using the coax spdif port on my sound card but am unable to turn on surround without getting into creative console.

SDX wrote:
no no and no. I tried High speed instead of Full speed (how do you know which of them is USB2.0?!, I was sure full speed is the best).
The drivers are the latest and I just reinstalled Open AL (had a crash in Steam's UnrealTournament3, but now the game?works).
And most interesting, no I can not turn on Game mode! I never could. I read that PCI X-Fi boards have those 3 modes of operation, but it seems that X-Fi Surround 5. driver allows only Entertainment mode. I have tried to change this mode to others, but even by messing with driver files it didn't work.
Anyone with X-Fi Surround 5. running Vista 32bit can confirm that their EAX 4.0 is recognized correctly? Maybe you?are able?switch to Game mode?
So far I?see only?that EAX 4.0 in X-Fi Surround 5. is bull**bleep**.
Except the Xtreme Audio models, all other PCI and PCI-E X-Fi cards with?a DSP?support all 3 modes: Entertainment, Game and Audio Creation.
Xtreme Audio models and USB "cards"?are host/software based. The CPU does all?audio processing.
On Vista, there is a Host OpenAL engine (Sens_oal.dll) that provides EAX support up to 4.0.
Check if \Windows\System32\Sens_oal.dll exists.

I made an Arch installation on USB which isn't affected by this sort of problem. Unfortunately I'm not able to find the differences to trace the flaw.
EDIT
Partially solved:
Nvidia packages block the normal user access to /dev/video*
LAST EDIT
Found the issue, Must set a environ variable XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1. Then I appended to /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh. Also mentioned in this thread

Nomad explorer and creative mediasource not detecting zen touch player. PLEASE HE

Hi, I got a new pc and I was going to install my Zen Touch mp3 player on my new pc but I could'nt find the installation cd so I followed the instructions on here and downloaded all the necessary? software, drivers, plug ins, and followed all the instructions. Once everything was downloaded and installed I plugged my mp3 player into my pc and the noise it makes came up and mtp media player pop up appeared. Windows media player accepts that my zen touch is plugged in but creative media source and nomad explorer is not detecting it's?My os is windows xp, I am using windows media player 9 as I was having trouble with windows media player . Could someone please help me? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If you've just upgraded to XP, you now have to upgrade your Zen as well as your Mediasource. First you've got to upgrade your Zen Touch firmware to version 2.0.05 or above. Look around on the Creative Support site and you'll find the download without too much trouble. Be warned that the firmware upgrade is permanent, and it will wipe out your Zen hard dri've contents, so say goodbye to all your music unless you want to back it all up to your PC first.
Then you've got to upgrade your Mediasource to v 3.30.2 or higher. Again, you can find the upgrade download on the Creative site. Then you've got to install Zen Touch Media Explorer v .30.04 or higher. Same thing -- easy to locate on the Creative site. Then you should be good to go!?Best,?John

Business Catalyst and Creative Cloud not Working

I have a $2000 Premiere Business Catalyst Partner account. I set up my BC account and my Adobe ID years ago under different e-mails. When I tried to integrate my BC and Adobe Creative Cloud e-mails I got an error saying that I have to create a new Adobe ID.
I created a new ID. Now with Dreamweaver I'm getting the following error that I don't have a Partner Account!!! I do have a partner account, it's just under a different e-mail. Am I to stomach the fact that I will not be ablt to use my BC account on Creative Cloud simply because they are under 2 different e-mails? I've been waiting to use BC and Creative Cloud for months, what a dissapointment. This takes all the appeal out of Dreamweaver, Muse, and more, if I can't use Business Catalyst with Creative Cloud. Please help....

Why does Creative Cloud not work?

I´ve installed Creative Cloud and started it, but After a few minutes There it says " NO CONNECTION" What can I do???

Hi LennySmile,
Welcome to Adobe Forum,
Solution #1
Check the 'hosts" file for adobe entries. if you could see adobe entries there follow the below mentioned steps.
1. Go to the 'Hosts' file location.
WIN : C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
MAC: Go to finder menu on the top > go to folders > type '/etc', hit return.
2. move the hosts file to the desktop.
3. Open it.
WIN: open it with notepad.
MAC: double click it.
4. Delete all the adobe entries, as they are blocking your machine to connect to Adobe Activation Server.
5. Move it back to '/etc' folder.
Solution # 2
1. Check if you are working under any sort of firewall (system/network) / proxy.
2. Disable firewall / proxy.
Solution #3 (Should work)
Go for deployment : http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html.

Adobe Creative Cloud not working

Guido_guido I am sorry but what home screen are you referring too? Is it within the Creative Cloud Desktop application?

Downloads with Creative Cloud not working

Can't load them on the Mac, never downloads. Can't download to Win 8.1 Surface 2 Pro.
HELP!!!

Kim,
Have you installed the Creative Cloud management (in the list of apps on the cloud download page, find the adobe manager. That must be downloaded and installed first. Most browsers will jump to that install when you select one of the other apps first. But some browsers are having a problem doing so. Once the manager is installed and running, you can find illustrator listed in the manager. Click the install link next to the Illustrators name. That will download and install illustrator for you)?

Creative MediaSource will not play certain MP3

I have a Creative Audigy 2 NX with a remote that I really want to be able to use. Programs such as GIRDER, WinLIRC, and uICE do not support the RM-500 remote control.
I can't figure out how to control the remote beyond editing and creating key files that send ASCII commands, but the problem with that is I cannot control programs that are not currently acti've. In other words, I cannot control winamp if I'm playing a game with my remote, which is what I want to do. The KEY files are structured as this:[KeyEvent690 etc]KeyName=whateveryouwantdisplayedNotification=- or 2 or 4KeyEventRemap=this is the important partHandleByApp=i don't know what this doesAnyway, if I set notification to -, I can send ASCII commands-- BUT these will not send to programs not currently on top. If I set notification to 2, as Creative did in their Winamp .x key file, I could control the program even if it is not on top-- BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE KeyEventRemaps NUMBERS SHOULD BE. I cannot find this information, and I have tested as far as I am capable of doing manually (tested numbers through 500 MANUALLY).So what I want to be able to do is use my remote to control winamp, but that is impossible. And Creative MediaSource will not play streaming audio (for God knows why...). So what I decided to do was record to an MP3 player with a third party program and play that MP3 in the Creative MediaSource software (the built-in recorder will NOT work, as I cannot structure that into a playlist nor can I play the recording media nor can I minimize the program and mute the feedback-- I can only record if I'm playing, and this doesn't work). The first problem I encountered was several programs would not output MP3s that were playable as they were being recorded, however I finally did find one. This program, 3aLab iRadio, allows the MP3 to be played back WHILE simultaneously being recorded. The only problem is that this the Creative MediaSource software will NOT play the mp3. Out of the 5 different MP3 players I tested, ONLY the Creative MediaSource software would not playback the MP3 as being written. I cannot figure this out, and I am at a loss as to what to do next. I realize that Creative won't support streaming audio with their player, MediaSource, but what I like to do is listen to streaming internet radio as an item on my mp3 playlist in winamp. I wish to be able to control this with my remote, but as I cannot find ANY WAY out there to control my remote as I wish without further information, this is a dead end. My alternati've is to use the Creative software for which the remote was designed to work, but unfortunately this does not support streaming internet radio nor does it support MP3s that are being written to. This is driving me insane.
What I want to be able to do is have a playlist that I control with my remote, with the first item on the list being internet radio, the 2nd and such on down being MP3s. In winamp, this is doable, as well as in Windows Media Player, and most MP3 players out there. Since I cannot do this in Creative's software, I need a workaround alternati've. PLEASE.
So, in conclusion, is there anyone out there who can either tell me how to control my remote directly by identifying what the notification=2 keyeventremap=configuarions are, give me a program like girder however which supports the RM-500 remote, or tell me how to get MP3s that are being written to (aka incomplete) to play in the Creative MediaSource software?
Thank you very much for your time.
