Creative Zen 32Gb issue with loading downloaded wma fi

Hi
can anyone help me?
I have the Zen 32Gb and love it. I hav transferred all my cds and digitised vinyl onto it and have never feltso in touch with my music collection!
But I'm having a problem when I try to transfer wma files I've downloaded from sites like Tesco.com. When I try to put them on the Zen using the Zen Media Explorer it comes up with "unknown error". If I try to drag and drop or copy files using the browse media interface I get a message telling me I need to install a security update. I'm running Windows Media Player 0 and it's telling me there are no updates to install.
Any ideas?
thanks for any help!

The files might be DRM protected. To check just right click on the file and select Properties. It will tell you if they are protected or not. If so you won't be able to import them.

Creative Zen Xtra - Issues with file transfers

Hi, I've had my Zen Xtra for about 4 or 5 months now. It's been fine up until recently. When I start Nomad Explorer, it would only allow me to transfer maybe 3 or 4 albums before producing an error message along the lines of "This operation cannot continue due to an unknown error". Gradually, the number of albums would decrease until, last night it wouldn't even let me transfer a single file.
So I restarted my computer which normally helps, but when I plugged in the player this time nothing happened. The screen on the player lit up but instead of displaying the little icon that shows it's plugged in, nothing happened. In Nomad Explorer it merely shows "Not Connected" and in Media Source it doesn't even show up.
I deleted and reinstalled all of the drivers, software and that hasn't helped. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Thanks for any help, Matt.

Have you tried a disk cleanup? See the FAQ Part post.
These file transfer issues are indicati've of USB problems, but there's a link in the FAQ Part post with lots of information about troubleshooting connection problems.

Serious Issues with Creative Zen 32GB

I have been a loyal creative user for at least the past 6 years.
In?July I purchased the Creative Zen 32GB device.
At first it was fine, now it's a total mess.
I looked to try and find information on whether other folks are having the same issues as I am, but I can't seem to find anything.
I have Windows Vista 32bit on my computer. I recently upgraded to firmware .2.03 and that just made things worse.
As soon as I purchased the player I have never had the correct time on the device. I change it constantly and when I turn it back on after a day of not using it, the clock is wrong again.
I use Rhapsody to download music to the device. I originally had no issues, but lately, I can't transfer songs to the device from Rhapsody, playlists are deleting on their own.
After upgrading to the new firmware, for every artist I have that contains THE, for example, The Beatles, The Killers, the songs are listed twice on my player as Beatles, The and The Beatles. When I try to delete the duplicate it takes action as if it is deleting, but when I turn the player back on the duplicates are still there.
If I try to delete a song from the device, it takes action as if it is deleting, but the songs are still there when I turn the player on again.
There are duplicates and I do not know how they got there.
When I plug the device into my computer to transfer files or update songs, it makes my computer lock up.
Anyone have these issues? I have tried to restore, but that does not work. HELP!

Creative Zen 32GB - Is it Dead?

Hi. I bought a Creative Zen 32gb Flash player in January 2009.
It was mostly OK for the first year or so. By then, it was almost full.
Last summer, it began crashing on me every so often. I assumed it was just because it was almost full, but as time went on it crashed more and more.
Sometimes it would play slightly garbled songs, almost like in the good old days when your cassette deck would chew up your D-90s.
When using the locking function, it would crash completely, requiring the judicious use of a pin to reset it.
Then it would crash when plugging it into headphones or the cable connecting to my AUX port on my car stereo.
The other day, it crashed and I thought - right, its been going a couple of years now, I'll back it up and then go into recovery mode, clean up the memory and then reboot, as recommended in the user guide. I tried backing up the player but it got about halfway through and crashed out.
I then thought to hell with it - I've got most of my music backed up anyway, and the clean up might not mess with it too much, so I tried to follow the cleanup instructions but everytime I let go of the Play button, it would crash out.
If I held the play button down, it would work, but the buttons are so close together, if I changed pressure on the play button while selecting "clean up", it would crash out. Still, I thought I'd managed it but it would not restart or dock, or pretty much do anything except let me go into recovery mode (while pressing Play, of course).
I then thought I'd just reformat the player - again, through the recovery menu since it would not dock with my PC (Win Vista, 32bit). That made no difference. It would not start, would not dock etc etc.
I then thought I would upgrade the firmware, downloaded it from Creative, and managed to get it to go so far, before it crashed out. And that's it - I can just about get it to start, sometimes, and then the screen will go black, or white, or red and black striped once. It will not dock at all. I can press reset as much as I like but the best I can get it to do is get to the recovery menu for a few seconds before crashing, or I can get it to display the Creative logo for a few seconds before, again, it crashes.
Its sat right now with a black screen and the blue light on. I cannot turn it off, or get any response from it at all.
So, is this now a dead mp3 player? Is it likely a hardware fault? If firmware/software, is there any way to fix this or should I just chalk this up to experience and accept that ?60 odd of mp3 player just isn't built to last very long?
And if its dead, what to replace it's I want Creative stuff to be better than it seems to be, and I am loathe to buy iPod. Sony? Wife has one and its fine, but not enough storage. Any recommendations?

I've had my Zen32GB for a year and have loved it up to this morning. I added a few photos to it and now its been stuck in "Rebuilding" for the last two hours. I can dock it and get into it, copy files, etc, but it will not play. I have been using a handy pin to reset it, then it goes back into Rebuilding. It doesn't appear to be a hardware problem as the buttons were working fine. A lost cause?
On the recovery mode screen, can you try doing a CleanUp>Reboot?

Creative Zen Radio Issue

Creative Zen Radio Issue?Hey,
I've had this creative zen player for some time now whilst im overall happy with my product, sadly there is all of a sudden a issue with it.
When i listen to the radio then lock it to just enjoy it - if i then unlock it, some times the screen locks up and stays black.
Whilst a reset solves this it doesn't stop it happening again.
But (this is a big but)...
The volume which i have on safely low - goes to compelte maximum with sound safety option off. It almost defeaned me when it occured and had ringing in my ears. I have booked an appointment with doctors as the ringing yes not really gone since.
Additionally im pretty sure my headphones are screwed as they were totally distorted when this occured which has probably ruined the quality of the speakers which were only a few months old.
So is this well known ? Cos im surprised no one has sued for loss of hearing if others have had this issue. I've yet to have my medical results on it - but would mostly prefer to have my mp3 fixed or replaced cos i cannot risk using it and having it do it again and make my hearing become damaged.
Thanks for reading.

Does the radio stop working right after lock? I locked the player right after choosing a radio station and the player continues to play. You might want to contact our Customer Support to see if they can help you further.

Creative Cloud update fails with "the download appears to be corrupted" when tried through our company's firewall, but succeeds if the computer is taken outside the firewall

Creative Cloud update fails with "the download appears to be corrupted" when tried through our company's firewall, but succeeds if the computer is taken outside the firewall. The IT guys have opened up the ports and URL's specified in the Adobe documentation. I have also captured the network traffic of both the failed and successful downloads for IT to examine (using Little Snitch), however they can find nothing to account for the problem. Adobe just seems to "give up and die" after about 2-3 minutes. Why is this? How can I or IT fix this?
Can I send the above log files to someone familiar with these issues for examination?

Hi Gveo,

Creative Zen 32GB won't turn on, won't reset, won't do anyth

1. Make sure to state what player you have, and the firmware version.No idea the firmware version, the Zen won't turn on. I have the Creative Zen 32GB, bought in April, 2008.
2. What you have tried so far to solve the problem.Plugged it in using the USB port to the computer. Tried the reset hole. It won't turn on or respond or do anything.
5. Also add any other information that relates to the problem. The more information you give the more likely the problem will be solved quickly. Last week, I had to do the 'clean up' option after using the reset pin hole and another problem was fixed (that problem was that none of the music files were able to be seen via my computer). Then it worked fine, but now it won't turn on or do anything. The last thing I did was upload songs to it using Explorer, and re-labeling individual tracks by cleaning up names, album names, etc. Help, plz!?

i just got back from the mall.i visited the electroworld branch from which i purchased my zen. i explained to them what my problem is, at first they recharged the player in a usb port in front of me...then they also reformatted it too...told me to stick to the firmware that came with the product..the player responded and thanked them..but hr later, it blacked out again..i came back to the store manager showed him my zen ( he couldnt deny it doesnt have a problem ) and within minutes told me...they are going to give me a replacement. (the diagnosis was AUTO-OFF). they did and im very thankful. right now im charging the new player and hoping...i mean really hoping that this zen works. because im not going to waste my time again even with that warranty. if this zen is defecti've, im gonna li've with its defect..but im going to save up for the fruit's company in my next purchase..better yet why not a new pda...i can play music files in it, watch movies, save medical books etc..

Creative Zen 32GB White Screen

I've started having a problem in the last 2 days with my Creative Zen 32GB. I've had the player since July 2010. The only problems I've really had with the player have been some minor freeze-ups, but other than that, everything else has been smooth sailing.
The other day, my player froze up to a black screen while the power-on button was still on. I let the battery run out as I didn't have anything near by to help reset the player. I charged the unit some and tried turning on the player, but I had to still reset the player. I then began getting a white screen. After another hard reset and plugging in my USB to charge it, it came back on, but I've been having problems keeping a charge on the player. I charged the player to 100% and turned it off, but the next morning when I tried to turn it on, it was dead again.
Is this a problem with the battery? My player isn't under warranty anymore, but I like it and want to keep it. I just want to make sure this is the problem before I start asking for repairs or anything. Anybody else had problems with this?

Tried charging it with 2 cables. I think the battery just can't hold its charge anymore. It'll hold for about 12-16 hours, but when I wake up the next morning and try to turn it on, it's dead.
What's the best way about getting this replaced? Is it possible to still pay for Creative to service it (since it's out of warranty), and if not, is there anywhere else I can send this to get it serviced?

Menu Lag/Slowdown on the Creative Zen 32gb??

Hey guys,
So I recently bought a Creative Zen 32gb and for the most part it is GREAT!
The only problem I have noticed with it so far is a noticeable slowdown or lag when browsing around the menus. By this, I mean that for instance scrolling up and down on the main menu, things will stagger and stutter and simply not flow smoothly as I navigate around. The same thing happens when I browse over album covers and suchlike in the music menu. The problem is heightened when music is playing, adding to the slowdown.
So has anyone else experienced this problem? Or is this just standard with the Zen? More importantly, how can i fix it's!?!
Thanks guys!

I should also mention I have ONE album on it, so it can't be because it's full. ONE ALBUM! No joke...

Issue with File Download(messageDownload) on Search Page.

Hi,
I created a custom OAF search page which fetches values from one table. The document in getting stored in my custom table in a BLOB colums and NOT in FND_LOBS.
The table has 3 collumns along with others:
1st is primary key (Record_Seq) ==> number data type
2nd to store actual file name (File1Name) ==> varcahar2 data type
3rd to store the actual uploaded data (File1Data) ==> BLOB data type
The reason for having the “File1Name” is so that I can display the original file name of the document that was uploaded, instead of just the “view” in the search page results .
On the File1Data BLOB and created a messageDownload for that under query results table with following details:
ID : File1Data
ItemStyle : messageDownload
FileMIME Type : pdf
Datatype : BLOB
View Instance : LacEmpExposureVO1
view Attribute : File1Name
File View Attribute : File1Data
When I click on the "File1Name" data hyperlink, it is opening only the first document corresponding to the first record in the search page results.
For example, If my search page returns 10 rows then when I click on the file1name on any row, It is open the first row file name only.
I have a primary key column(RECORD_SEQ) in the Table / EO / VO which is displayed in the search page results.
Also one weird thing is happening:
If I try to do this more than 2 times then it is opening the update page with the first record from the search page results…
I tried to print the context and it is nul the first time, But the second time then context is changing to "update". Dont know how this is happening????
Any advice is greatly appreciated as it is very crucial for me to get this resolved ASAP. I have looked at several forums and did a lot of things as advised in the forums . But nothing seems to work for me.
Thanks,
Mir

Creative ZEN MX problems with charging battery

/Creative ZEN MX problems with charging batteryHi!
I've bought Creative Zen MX player a couple months ago. First thing I noticed when I plug in it into my computer was that battery after 3 hours was not full, what is more computer disconnected with it couple times;/
After weeks or two when I tried to charge it i Went where I bought it and they said after some examination that it really didn't work
They've sent it to the service. I had t wait for the return two months!!! and at the end they said that that tiny usb wire was damaged not mp3.
OK . The battery was fully charged maybe on 5 attempts ;/
There is no problem in my computer because I tried it on several other and it did not work ;/ ?Please, help me
Where is the problem?
?Why this player simply disconnect with my PC?

I was given this as a gift. I charged it for 8hrs when i got it and it showed fully charged. I have been trying to give it a full charge over the last 2 days once on a power adapter plugged into the wall the other through the USB port on my laptop .each for about 8hrs each. Using different cables. I remove the player and it shows full battery (never gives the plug icon though)and within 30 minutes of play music, I get the low battery warning. it was purchased on 0/6/200. nAlso it will not power on while charging.My original ZEN was able to play music when charging this one says DOCKED and will not repond to the power button being presses.

Creative Zen 32GB - how do I remove blank FM presets???

How do I remove blank presets from the FM list? I have about 20 stations set up as presets but the other 2 blank ones are still there. Delete doesn't delete them. All delete does is to erase the station from a preset that has a station programmed into it. I want them GONE so that when I sequence through the station presets I don't have to go through the 2 blank ones to get to the next good one. If this is not possible, holy cow, what an oversight on the part of the programmers! Please tell me this can be done!
This is for a Creative Zen 32GB. Not a Zen V or a Zen XFi. Just a Zen. Just a plain Zen.
Thank you.

Wow. That's very odd indeed. Seems pretty logical to be able to do that. There's no way I could program in 32 stations and I li've in a major radio market. There are not 32 stations I'd ever be interested in listening to around here and I don't even think there are that many even on the air. Again, since that's software related, please put that in a firmware update.

Creative Zen 32GB Disply Brightness never chan

I have a creative ZEN 32GB and i recently discovered that the brightness never changes, its alway at 0% i've tried setting it to 00% but there is not difference between 0% 50% or 00% im not sure what might be the problem. I have also tried upgrading the firmware to the lates one but it hasnt fixed anything. Has anyone had this problem or know what to do?!

Well not its no that i dont know how to work my MP3 at first thats what i thought that i wasnt selecting it right but i have tried everything on the menu but it doesnt change i think i'll just end up getting the new X-Fi Zen player....but is the Wi-Fi feture really worth the extra money. What is so special about it, there's not much out there that showes what the wi-fi can do =?

The data for store C2 is loaded also on store C1 so everything is messed up.
I also have a question regarding dimensions. I have a model in PAS which has data from different data sources (BW and excel). In excel I have dimensions which are not loaded from BW (they don't exist there). How to create such dimenison?
Thank you a lot in advance.
Best regards,
Petra

Petra,
The Forum isn't really designed as a training system but rather where people can share questions or get a separate pair of eyes to look afresh at issues that aren't working for some reason. This is particularly the case for something which is as important as creating dimensions.
The idea of the SSM Cube Builder/Model Designer was to enable people to build models with their relevant dimensions and metrics for demos and simple initial systems using manual data entry. If you are getting into building dimensions that will be outside BW then you are moving into the implementation arena rather than demo creation and need to work carefully so that things tie up.
I doubt people would expect to be able to set up/implement BW without training and SSM is the same.
If you would like training or would like to collaborate on a first project to enable skills transfer then my colleague Pedro and I would be happy to discuss this. We have done this with other people and it has worked well.
Regards
Colin
