Creative ZEN 4gb compatible with Creative MediaSource

Hi,
I was just wondering if I can use my new Creative Zen 4gb with Creative MediaSource. I really like MediaSource and I would prefer to use it the only problems is when ever I connect it its keep locking up and crashing especially when I go to creative playlists. I used to use mediasource for my Zen Micro. Any suggestion? or does creative no longer support MediaSource with there new players?Thanks!

Strife04 asked the following:"Hi, does anyone know which Creative MediaSource Player/ Organizer is compatible with the new 4gb ZEN and if there is one, where it can be downloaded? thanks in advance.":?My reply:Which 4gb Zen?I have the Zen V Plus 4 gig and MediaSource Player/Orginizer running on a?Windows XP SP2enabled Dell.
This works fine for me.

  • Creative Zen 4GB incompatible with Windows Xp 64b

    I cant get my new 4GB zen to work with my Windows XP 64 bit. As far as i am aware i've downloaded all the neccesary drivers from Creative, but still no joy. Upon inserting the CD that came with the Zen i get 'The windows operating system is not supported' and i am unable to see my Creative zen plugged in the 'My computer' display. It could just be me thats missed something blatantly obvious, or am missing a download (If anyone could link the drivers, just incase i've missed something id be most grateful) If anyone could help me out here id be most thankful Cheers Buldyman

    I have 2 8G Zens and a 4G Zen and they all seem fine under Vista 64bit, but I've not tried them under XP 64bit.
    Do they show up as devices in the device manager with an exclamation point?
    I did notice under 32bit XP that they showed up as MTP devices until I installed WMP (Windows Media Player) . After that, they simply showed up like a USB dri've which is what I wanted. If you are still running an older version of WMP, upgrading to the latest version () may help.

  • Is Belkin TuneDok Zen Touch compatible with MICRO Z

    TUNEDOK ZEN TOUCH
    Is compatible with MICRO ZEN?
    Any product similiar compatible with Micro Zen?
    (((thnxs, sorry by my english, i'm spanish)))

    I'm guessing the size of the player is pretty critical, hence it's not suitable. I'm not aware of anything similar for the Micro, but I guess it's possible there is something.

  • Is the Zen Touch Compatible with Yahoo Music Unlimite

    i'm hoping to sign up for what looks like a pretty decent service at an acceptable price point. however i don't see the zen touch (mine is 20gb) on the list of compatible 'windows plays for sure' devices. i know the micro is.
    anyone know what the status is of the zen touch and if there is anything i can do about it if current software is not compatible? thanks!!

    thanks all....
    It's just a marketing <strike>scam</strike> scheme by Creative to force you to upgrade to the Zen Micro, or the upcoming Creative Zen 20GB.
    First they tell us an update for Xtra & Touch by 2nd quarter? Then delay it until god knows when... disappointing really

  • Zen Xtra compatible with Zen V Pl

    Hi, I own a 60GB zen xtra, which is great for hauling around my giant music library, and a zen v plus for obvious reasons. It seems I can get my computer to recognize one or the other, but not both devices. at work the zen v plus works, but the xtra is not recognized. the opposite is the case at home. Any ideas or suggestions? I do not need to have both devices attached at the same time... tx,?Phil

    well, I stumbled onto a workaround of sorts until something better comes along. I cannot install the zen v plus software on my older desktop. installshield crashes with several strange errors. I can get realplayer to recognize it, even though it won't do so on my new desktop. for the time being, I can set up a library on an external usb dri've and switch between the desktop computers, so at least I can transfer files to the zen v plus. a better solution is certainly welcome. I'd like to sort out why my laptop doesn't work with my zen xtra, but that is way less important right now. Phil Obley

  • Is "Asus Strix GeForce GTX 970 OC DirectCU II 4Gb" Compatible with Adobe sotfware?

    Hi!
    I´ve been thinking about buying a new Graphic Card "Asus Strix GeForce GTX 970 OC DirectCU II 4Gb", but when i went to see the requirements for Adobe Premiere, After Effects and Photoshop, that card is not recommended.
    If i buy that graphic card, will it still work fine as the other cards or will it only work with that type of cards that are in the list?

    It will work without any problems and is a top choice.

  • 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).

  • Creative MediaSource Organizer....Will it work with Zen 16GB

    I still have Creative MediaSource Organizer that I used when i had my Sleek Photo. I really liked using this program to edit the names/albums. Will this program also work with the ZEN 6GB? If not, what program do I use?

    Great! Thats what I thought it would be, they were probably covering themselves with the 'works best with' so no one could come back and say "My mp3 player won't play the movie files" you know what some people are like

  • Creative Zen-is it compatible with the Griffin Player pa

    Looking for info on accessories. I was at Circuit City, and they have a Griffin Player Pack, which includes an fm transmitter with charging capablities, and a house charger (it also has a california roll for storing, and an audio in cord). It doesn't say specifically if this is compatible with the Creative Zen, and the guy behind the counter had never even seen the Zen before. Has anyone tried these? Also, is there a difference in fm transmitters? Are the more expensi've ones any better than the cheap ones? Thanks for any help!

    Is your source very large in the number of files to transfer
    - It's just mp3 files (about 200 CD's ripped to mp3 files)For small sources (music) you can manually build and drag your MP3 files to your manually built folders.
    - Do you mean it's possible to create folders on the Creative ZEN itself Is your source in MP3 format NON DRM protected music - I do not know what "NON DRM protected music" means Do you have a link to download the manual for the Creative ZEN Message Edited by larshgf on 04-5-2008 02:24 PM

  • Creative ZEN 4GB is not connecting with

    Hello Everybody!
    I've bought CREATIVE ZEN 4GB mp3 player, and after some two months, i can not connect the player with pc. So i reinstalled my windows, because i thought it was some problems with whem. After installation, everything worked twice, and then, is the same problem happened. So i reinstalled windows a second time, but doesn't matter, how many times i reinstall them, it's same problem. After that, i've tried to contact costumer support, but all they tried to help me, was unsuccessful. So few weeks ago, i deleted the MTP Device from "device manager" And now, all the time i have a bubble on the left lower side at the screen, with a note: "Found New Hardware: MTP Device" And i can't turn it of, every time i do that, it shows again. At device manager, on MTP device i have yellow exclamation mark. When i'am trying to update driver, i have this error: There was a problem installing this hardware: MTP Device.
    This Device Cannot Start (Code0)
    The only thing i can do, charge my mp3 player. And sometimes i using the player on the really old computer, and its works properly, but the worst thing, that the old computer is not mine anymore, so i can't do anything with a mp3 player.
    So if someone, has problem like this, and someone, who resolved it, please help me. I like this player very much, and i dont want to change it.
    Thank You!

    Yes, it is possible. On the right hand side of the player is the slider to turn on the player, push the slider upwards to the lock position and the screen will turn off. That is the Hold mode. At this mode, all the buttons would be inaccessible to prevent accidental pressing of the buttons. This is the mode to use when you are just playing music and do not need the display.
    To unhold the player, just push the slider to the middle position and all the way down to turn it off.

  • Is the Creative ZEN compatible with Windows XP Pro x64 editi

    Hello, I recently bought a Zune and then found out it wasn't compatible with my OS, XP Pro x64. I installed the software on my laptop, but it was just too troublesome to set everything up and exchange music, videos, etc. between the two machines. So I've decided to return the Zune and get a Zen instead. I'd really like to buy the ZEN 8GB, but it does not state whether or not the x64 edition is supported. The ZEN V Plus states that the software does support the OS, so if I have to get that one, I don't mind. Thanks.

    CRe: Is the Creative ZEN compatible with Windows XP Pro x64 edition?H I recently bought a Zen 8GB mp3 player. I have an xp x64 pro OS. As soon as I tried to instal the included software from the CD, a dialogue box appeared stating, "The windows operating system running on this computer is not supported by this product." I have done everything the technical assistance group has suggested with the samed result including a clean install. I did load it on my 32 bit laptop. It works fine. ONe of the problems I have found is that the correspondance goes to a different person each time and they are not reading the dialogue. I have found a way to make it work (well somewhat) with my 64 bitg machine. Oddly enough thed software for my zen V load on fine but the software is incampatable with the Zen 8GB unit. I think that there are softwarfe problems and CT is not really dealing with them.

  • Creative Zen 16gig not compatible with Napster To

    The product page clearly states this product is compatible with Napster To Go but when I open Napster and try to drag a song to the lower right hand corner it says my device is not compatible and needs a firmware upgrade. I JUST upgraded the firmware like 20min ago and my account is to-go activated. Is this false adertising or am I doing something wrong?

    The software that came on the original CD is not supported on vista.
    The Zen Micro will work nati'vely with Vista if it contains the latest firmware version. If the Zen Micro isn't being recognized by Vista then you will need to use an older system (windows xp) to upgrade the firmware on the Zen Micro. Once Vista recognizes the Zen Micro you should be able to download Vista compatable versions of the software for the device from the creative website.

  • Zen Plus not compatible with Creative Media Explore

    I have had my Zen Plus for almost a year. Use it primarily to listen to audio books and I love it, but there is one thing that drove me crazy when I first got it, and it still does it, but I have gotten used to it. (I have Windows XP)
    When I connect my device via the USB plug, I get a Windows?pop up that says "Portable Device" in the title bar. It then tells me that Windows can perform the same action each time I connect this device. There are several actions to select from:?
    . Open device to view files (using Windows Explorer)
    . Sync digital media files to this device (using Windows Media Player)
    . Manage the device (using Real Player)
    . Organize Media files in this device (using Creative Media Explorer)
    . Add music to the device (using Yahoo Music Jukebox)
    . Manage the device (using Rhapsody)
    . TAKE NO ACTION
    Then there is a checkbox below that says "Always take the selected action."
    Then you can click "OK" or "Cancel"
    If I perform the obvious action (the Creative Media Explorer), I get an error message that says:
    "This device is not compatible with Creative Media Explorer. This application will now end".
    If I then go to my Start>Programs menu, and open up the Creative Media Source 5 Organizer, my device shows up in the program and I can use it with no problem. It also works if I have the Creative Media Source 5 organizer open before I?connect
    In my Zen.
    Don't know why it does this, or how to stop it but, as I stated previously - it is not a problem for me now that I know how to get around it, but it has probably caused a few new users to return their device because they? thought they could not get it to work.

    here try this, works for melink
