Creative Zen 16gb? The down button isn't responding well...

Sometimes when I press the down button, it doesn't respond at all, and other times I have to press it really hard. It was working fine until about a week ago. Is there any way to fix it's

Hello Luv2rock,
Copy the contents first of your Creative ZEN to your PC, boot the player from the recovery mode and select Format. If the button works after formatting the player, could be some corrupt files on the player that is causing the problem. If No, I'm afraid this is already a hardware problem and you may need to send in the unit for repair.

The home button is not responding

I have an iphone 4. I have done a restore, I've used the restart method of holding the sleep button and home button and have been able to get it to work again. Now the home button isn't responding at all for a restart. My phone is just over a month past it's warranty. Any ideas?

Reset Home Button Steps:
(1) Tap Settings App, when open:
(2) Hold Power button until "slide to power off" bar appears.
(3) Don't slide it, release power button.
(4) Gently, continuously press Home button for few seconds until home screen appears.
(5) Done.
If this does not help, further points to Hardware Problem.

Greetings, NMSX from Spain, world champion's!! hehe

Hi NMSX,
Welcome to Creative forums!
See if you can boot your Creative ZEN from the recovery mode. You can find the instructions here. If yes, do a Clean-Up the Reboot. If it won't help, you may need to boot from the recovery mode again and select Format this time. Do note that formatting will delete all the contents of the player so you may need to backup your data first before formatting. If this doesn't help, then this could be a hardware issue. You may need to send it in for repair. Well I remember a similar case before but that was because the user accidentally applied a strong pressure on the player. I'm not saying you have the same scenario but its possible specially if you usually put the player on your pocket.

HT1386 what do i do if the device button isn't on my iTunes?

I am trying to sync my phone to Itunes, becuase my screen is messing up. But the device button isn't showing up on iTunes. What should I do?

Restart your iPhone by holding down the Power button and the Home button at the same time for 10 secounds.

HT4993 My volume down button is not working. The UP button works, but not the down button. I have tried to restart it and that didn't solve the problem.

My volume down button doesn't work on my iPhone. The UP buttown works, but not the down button. I have tried a hard reset and that didn't fix it.

Try this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

My home button isn't working well so i went to my service provider to ask about the problem. They advised me to update my iPhone to iOS 5 but the problem is no matter what i do, there is always an error. What should I do?

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

I have 2 people in my contacts that I'm unable to text. The SEND button does not respond

I Have 2 contacts that I'm unable to text to. The SEND button does not respond. Other contacts will send message.

Hi Gaylene1949,
So the issue is isolated to two contacts only.
There are a couple sections in this article for troubleshooting contact specific issues.
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
and
If you still can't send or receive SMS, follow these steps
Make sure that the contact who's trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
Make sure that you're using the area code with the contact's phone number. When sending messages internationally, you also need to use the contact's international code.
If you're using a "Pay as you go" SMS plan, make sure it has enough available balance. Contact your carrier if you're unsure of your SMS plan or the available balance.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact from the Contacts app. Send a new message to the contact.

Hey! I am from Egypt and purchased I phone5 unlocked from USA Atlantic City NJ. When I started to use it the Home button wouldn't respond. I tried everything pushing hard, turning it off and on again it's just hopeless. What can I do? Need help!

I purchased Iphone 5 from USA while I am from Egypt. It's unlocked so no issues there, yet when I started first using it the home button wouldn't respond under any circumstances! I am afraid to give it to an Apple retailer in Egypt to fix it coz that might make me lose my warranty in the US.. Sending it back to the US and asking for a replacement might take time and according to the purchasing reciept it says return date Aug 15th! Need some help.. Thanks

Thnx, I already did that when I got the chance. But when I took it over there yesterday they told me we can only fix it and not replace it coz I exceeded my warranty reclaim!! its just not practical to have it and send it back overseas within the warranty limit! I was so furious it's just so not fair..

What can i do if my home button isn't responding right away

My home button isn't responding right away , i was told it may be cause dirt gets in but im not sure

Home and Power Buttons do fail. Visit an Apple Store for a solution.
Meanwhile can use 'AssitiveTouch' under Settings > General > Accessibility

HT3529 I receive messages on my iPad, but I cannot send a reply. The send button will not respond to my touch.

I receive messages on my iPad, but I cannot send a reply. The send button will not respond to my touch.

It's not that you can't use the subject field, but it is very unreliable when I try to use it. Sometimes the message send button will work and sometimes it won't.
But the biggest reason to turn it off is so that you do not accidentally type your message in the subject field. You can type a subject in that field, but you still have to type the actual message in the space below the subject field.

How do you turn on the laptop when it shuts itself down and the power button isn't working

How to I turn the laptop on after it has shut itself off

If you hold the power button down for 15 to 20 seconds and the machine still will not turn on, you should do one of three things:
1. Take it to an Apple Store for an assessment and estimate.
2. Take it to an Authorized Apple Service Center for an assessment and estimate.
3. Consider purchasing a replacement machine.

Creative Zen 40Gb - touchpad AND buttons not work

Orite all, my names tom, n i got my creative zen last october...after about a month or 2, the touch pad would only go down, then it stopped working completely. gradually, none of the buttons worked except the buttons on the right (not including the play button). To add insult to injury, the validation of purchase i had was thrown in the bin as well as the guarantee.Brilliant, and the jack is broken too. Is there anything <EM>at all </EM>i can do?! or any advice for<EM> attempting </EM>to fix the product? help would be brilliant

Did you buy the player on credit or debit card? Creative will typically accept this as proof of purchase.
All you can do is get the player repaired by Creative, whether under warranty or not.

Creative Zen (16GB Model) showing incorrect song information

<Creative Zen (6GB Model) showing incorrect song information I was given a Creative Zen for christmas, and I'm very happy with it.
The only thing is, I've noticed that it seems to occasionally display the wrong title for the song it's playing. I have a playlist called RandomAll which I created using the Media Explorer software. Sometimes, when I look down at the player, I'll notice the wrong song information on screen. Not just the title or anything, but completely wrong information. For example, right now, my player is telling my that a Rihanna song is playing, and gives me all the details for that song (including the extended details if I go into the menu). But the song that's actually playing is a cover of Fraggle Rock by Me First & The Gimme Gimmes. It doesn't seem to be the same songs every time or anything like that, so I don't think it's a problem with the files.
Is this an issue that has been noticed by anyone else? Is there anything I can do to fix it's And if not, is it the kind of thing I need to send my player back for?

@ It could be incorrect ID3 tags on your .mp3s, if the source for your music had the wrong ID3 information, your Zen won't show the correct information unless you use an? ID3 Tag Editor to correct the source.
