Creative Micro Case Lanyard???

I bought the black Creative Leather Case for my Micro and LOVE it except for the belt clip. I seem to remember that in the description of the case, it said you could "wear it around your neck". Where can I get a lanyard for this or is it just any old lanyard will do? If anyone has one and can help me, that would be great!!!

on the bottom of the Zen Micro there is a little slot for a lanyard. I believe you have to use one you own, because I have not seen one for sale from Creative. To use it you take the battery compartment off, put the lanyard through the two slots on the bottom of the unit, and slide the battery compartment back on. I've used it a couple times, but I prefer just slipping it into my pocket.

  • 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.

  • Official Zen Micro Case. Any Go

    Hi, I have just received zen micro number 4 from the Creative RMA department after a string of problems?with dead players and headphone jack?issues.
    ?I wondered whether I should get the official zen micro case. Has anyone got good experience with this case? I want to keep my headphones plugged in but store it in the case at the same time. Will this be possible? I have a cheap silcone skin case at the moment but maybe wanted something a little more sturdy for my rucksack.
    thanks

    Thank you Alicia. Geez, I can't really understand why people are making protecti've cases that don't protect the most scratch prone surface of the Micro....
    I think I'll end up buying a silicone case and one of those screen protecti've films designed for PDAs and cell phones. Too bad there's nothing better around.

  • Creative Micro Photo charging on a noteb

    i've read something, i don't no where anymore, that you can't charge the Creative Micro Photo
    on a notebook, because the usb-ports of a notebook or to weak for that, so you have to do that
    on a desktop-computer, is that true ?

    Hi,
    No that should not be the case. Now thats not to say some manufacturers don't 'throttle' power usage when your laptop is not docked or mains powered to prolong battery life. But from a point of view of charging it shouldn't be an issue. As it takes approx 4 hours to charge a MPhoto chances are your laptops battery will not last through the full re-charge cycle anyway.
    If you are looking at prolonged periods with out access to mains you'll probably find availing of the replacable battery facility and aspare battery or two fully charged before departure will be a much better option.
    Hope this hel

  • Problems with my Creative Micro Zen hanging on the Creative Logo Scr

    I've been having problems with my Zen and have sent the following email to creative but if any one has any suggestions etc on what to do could they please email me thanks
    My Creative Micro Zen 5GB player has been hanging whilst using the player.
    I followed the advice found in the manual and on the creative web site to reset the player by removing the battery and then reinstalling it. This worked on a few occasions.
    However the player hung again and so I tried to rest it as before, when I replace the battery the player turned on and lights up with the Creative logo screen, but then hangs on the Creative logo screen, despite waiting to see if the player continued with the start-up, it did not and so then I tried resetting again, by removing the battery and reinstalling it.
    However the player is still hanging on this screen and I cant get it move away from this screen. The player wont allow me to move away from this screen at all, so I am unable to carryout the disk clean up which was also suggested. When the resetting didn?t work, I tried taking the battery out and leaving it overnight and then replacing the battery, however the player still hangs on the Creative logo screen. This has been continuing now for three days.
    I have also tried plugging the player into the power charger and it still hangs on the Creative logo screen. The backlight on the Zen Player lights up when the player first turns on but once the Creative logo appears on screen the light fades out. I have also tried recharging the battery to see if maybe the problem was a flat battery but this didn?t appear to work as it is still hanging. However the Zen does light up as it does when it charges normally. I also own a spare battery, which I have tried but the Zen player still hangs on the Creative Logo page.

    I found the solution! I saw numerous posts saying that all you could do is send it back to the company, then I found this one:
    Hi All,
    My zen has been down for the last week, hangs up on creative screen. I took the battery out and was able to get to the recovery mode but "disc scan" would not do anything(in limbo) and "reboot "met with the same result, nothing. If you want to talk to anyone at creative and are past your 6 month warranty window you have to pay $20 for the phone call. Well I decided to take matters into my own hands and spent yesterday morning researching old threads about this problem. I kept finding an uncommon fix. When you hold your power button on and replace you battery and the recovery screen starts up you wrap on the back with your knuckle, in my case I hit my zen face down sharply on my dresser. To my amazement the "Doobie Brothers" started playing and I have'nt had any problems yet. Evidently these systems have a hard dri've that hangs up. It may not work for you but it cured my glitch.
    Steve C.
    It worked for me, but only after four or fi've tries. Good Luck!<IMG height=6 src="http://forums.americas.creative.com/i/smilies/6x6_smiley-very-happy.gif" width=6 border=0>

  • Creative Micro Ph

    Hi, my creative micro photo (8gb) isn't connecting to the desktop. Every time time I turn it on, it sends me straight to creative logo and gets frozen. When I make it go to the Recovery Mode, it gets frozen when I click on reboot. When I click on Clean Up it gets frozen at that screen at scan disk. When I click on format (because I think there is a virus) , it freezes again! (Everytime it freezes, I put it in my Zen Micro Photo Speaker, and lets it charge and do its thing for about week each) PLEASE HELP ME CREATIVE I'M DESPERATE AND I DON'T WANT TO WASTE 250$ for nothing....

  • Creative micro mp3 pla

    i am trying to download driver for my mps player it is the red creative micro 2004 i have windows vista and it says not supported can any one help me resolve this

    You did not say if it is MicroPhoto or the black&white(just micro) any way I would say you need to update your firmware to plays for sure. It would be easiest to do the forware update on an XP machine if one is available. 2.2.02 is the firmware needed to make it useable on a Vista machine with windows media player . The firmware listed above is for the Micro not the MicroPhoto That firmware # is.3.0(for microPhoto) Read the requirements first you may NOT be able to update the firmware using a Vista OS ?? http://support.creative.com/downloads/welcome.aspx?

  • My creative micro is out of order!! He

    Two days ago, my creative micro stopped working... i turned it on, and then, it stopped on the "zen micro" screen... since this time, it doesn't even switches on... i'm terribly sorry, because i don't know what to do...
    thanks for those who can help me...

    If you plug your Zen Micro into your computer or charger- does it charge? Do the blue lights glow?
    If the battery is completely flat, the Zen will not power up. If possible, try charging and then repeat the Rescue Mode steps to Clean-up Disk and Reboot.
    If the unit will not turn on or charge, you need to contact Creative Support. You may have a faulty battery.

  • Synchronisation microsoft outlook and creative micro photo, a nice feature or no

    how nice is the feauture "synchronisation Microsoft Outlook" on the creative micro photo
    or perhaps other creative mp3-players
    what are the pro's and con's ? do you use it often ?
    is it a reason for buying because most other mp3-players have it not ?

    That is a Hard Dri've failure. Take it back to where you got it for replacement, or contact Creative Support for warranty.

  • Anyone bought the Creative Zen Micro Case y

    Hi all,
    Just wanted to know if anyone can rate the case for the micro that creative put out. Wondering also if the clip is as weak as the one that came with the 5Gb package (slides into cradle). Thanks

    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.

  • Zen Micro Case Quest

    Not sure this belongs here...but I have a question about the Creative Zen Micro leather case. You shouldn't get magnets near Mp3 players such as a micro, but the leather case shuts with a magnet. Is this actually safe, or can a keep using mine?

    Should be no problem. The magnet is very weak and will not interfere with the player...

  • What is the BEST Zen micro case????!!

    Is the creative case good?

    There is no best case. It all depends on what fits your needs.
    The problem with the Creative case is that you have to flip the cover in order to change something. It is very durable though but some people want to use the Micro as soon as they take it out of their pockets.
    Some say Vaja makes the best case since everything they do for you is custom made, has a great protect, custom made, and cost roughly around $70+. I wouldn't say the best because of it's price. But you do get what you paid for.
    There are other cases out there like the armor case from boxwave. The silicon case on ebay that cost about $-$3 including shipping from a guy in Hong Kong. Custom made altoids tin with your own type of padding. Leather case for mistic audio. DLO action case which can be bought from Bestbuy or Compusa. Boxwave's silicon case with removable belt clip and some claim that it is thicker or the Rhino Skin silicon case is thicker.
