Creative Zen 4MG Complete Dead (But Worked Fine This Morning?)

So just tried to turn on my Creative Zen 4MG and it appears to be completely dead - as in, won't turn on on, shows no signs of recognition when I connect to a computer using USB (tried on more than one computer).
As of this morning, the unit worked fine, so it seems odd that it would just die like this (also, it was fully charged as of this morning as well).
Has anyone ever had one of these things just completely die without warning before, even when working perfectly with no signs of trouble preceding the problem? OF does anyone know a fix? I'd hate to lose all the info on here!

For whatever it's worth, I just reset and that seemed to fix the problem. Weird.

My iphone was working fine this morning after I did the iOS 7.3 update but I just took a call and now it's completely shut off and won't turn back on. Coincidence?

My boyfriend and I both have iphone4's and we both did the 7.3 update this morning. My phone is still working properly but his just shut off after he'd taken a call and now he can't get it to turn back on. Coincidence? He's not dropped it or gotten it wet and he literally had just hung up from talking to me when it stopped working.
Anyone else having issues? Thoughts?
Thanks!

NO, but he can try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

HT1688 My iPhone is all of a sudden not turning on. Plugging it in didn't help. It worked fine this morning but all is black now & unresponsive---confusing

I misplaced my iPhone this morning at church. I couldn't find it and a friend with a phone called it to help me and mentioned "tracking it" We were able to hear it ring and found it. But now it is dark. I cannot turn it on. I tried plugging it in to my iPhone and nothing happened. How can I get it turned on again?
Thanks

Hello Beth,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. There are a few things that can be done to resolve the phone not being responsive. First restart the phone, the following article will assist with that process.
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can also try some steps in the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant

Help! Getting iTunes Error 11503 and Error (-50) was working fine this morning and now nothing

My iTunes has been working fine until this afternoon and now when I go to download music I am getting error code 11503 or (-50) Help, please!

Here's a possible fix for Error 11503 and for error 50.
It worked for me and hopefully it will work for you.
I believe this error is caused by the incomplete downloading of either an update to an app, or perhaps a big music file. In my case it was caused by closing the lid on my laptop when I was downloading app updates on a very slow internet connection in a hotel.
Anyway, here is what I did that fixed it completely.
Close iTunes.
Go to this folder : /iTunes/Mobile Applications/Downloads
You'll find tmp files there. Drag them out of this folder to a temporary folder on your desktop. The Downloads folder should now be empty.
Restart iTunes.
All should be fine.
If it's not, then I can't help further, but that's what worked for me.

TS3899 When i check my email I get the message "Cannot Get Mail. The user name or password for "Gmail" is incorrect". The user name and password are definiately correct, I can log on through safari. This worked fine this morning!

My gmail account has stopped working on my iphone, saying the user name or password is incorrect, but both are definitely correct. I have tried restarting the phone, deleting the account and setting it up again, and checked that I can log on through safari. It had been working fine until this morning! Any ideas how to fix this?

Turn off 2 step authentication on your gmail account in a browser. It should work fine afterwards.

HT4759 icloud was working fine this morning 3/16/13 then it stopped working. I can't get my email. My system is old 10.4.2 but it was working fine. What happened and what can I do?

I recently had to reinstall my software for a
dell computer a dell latitude d 830, then after installing all of my software and such including itunes the player did well even record to disks with no problems now that my system has done alot of updating of system files....now the itunes does not burn to my cd...error message 2131 this time
The 2131 usually indicates firmware needs to be updated on a drive.
Head to your drivers and downloads page for your latitude at Dell, and check for updates to your firmware for your optical drives. If you're behind and you update, does that clear up the 2131?

Installed the latest Java update today on my older iMac and now it won't boot up at all. 2007 model worked fine this morning, now disk first aid say boot blocks f'ed.

I am using an older mid 2007 imac 24 inch running snow leopard 10.6.8
I normally accept software update recs, and today when installing the security update to java, all went fine till restart, when I got the universal "NO" sign, the circle with the line through it and just spinning gray bars underneath.
Booted from system disks, ran first aid, said the boot block partitions or something like that needed updating but disk appears to be ok. Still not working.
Do you think Alsoft Disk Warrior will fix? I am running off external back up drive now.
Thanks for any help or advice. Apple as usual is as useless as tits on a bull, or a screen door on a submarine, pick your simile...

If your backup's up to date it might be less hassle to erase the internal and clone back from the backup. Don't allow the update next time it appears - you're not the only one having problems it would seem.
Note; the message "updating boot partitions" is a standard message that appears after a repair run. It won't go away and should be ignored.
Provided the message "The volume Macintosh HD Seems to be OK" in green has appeared, your disc fle system is fine.

When I select Apple TV and the mirroring option it holds for 5 to 10 seconds and then just goes back to iPhone. Was working fine this morning

Sorry - more information. Using it off iPhone 4S

Hello Theo,
I have a few recommendations for you. First if you havent already, restart the iPhone following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430.
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
I would also unplug power to your Apple TV and modem/router, wait a good 30 seconds, and plug it all back up.
If none of that gets it going again, then have a look at this article for troubleshooting Airplay:
Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring

BPEL process fails in SOA (in UNIX), but works fine in SOA (in Windows) env

Hello,
BPEL process fails in SOA (in UNIX), but works fine in SOA (in Windows) environment
Step 1: Build a asynchronous BPEL process which has no extra node. Make and deploy it in 'local windows desktop SOA' server
The BPEL process has three nodes:
a. client - on the left side of the swim lane
b. receiveInput - first node in swim lane (client calls 'receiveInput')
c. callbackClient - second and last node in the swim lane ('callbackClient' calls client)
Step 2: Go to BPEL console and 'Initiate' the BPEL process -> 'Post XML Message'
Step 3: Now, I can see the successfully completed BPEL instance in the BPEL console.
Now,
Step 4: Deploy the same BPEL process (dummy asynchronous) in the SOA server (hosted in unix box)
Step 5: Go to BPEL console and 'Initiate' the BPEL process -> 'Post XML Message'
Step 6: I find that the BPEL instance appears to have ended in error (on the second node i.e. callbackClient )
With the following error message
+<invalidVariables xmlns="http://schemas.oracle.com/bpel/extension"><part name="code"><code>9710</code>+
+</part><part name="summary"><summary>Invalid xml document.+
According to the xml schemas, the xml document is invalid. The reason is: Error::cvc-complex-type.2.4.b: The content of element 'DummyBPELProcessProcessResponse' is not complete. One of '{"http://xmlns.oracle.com/DummyBPELProcess":result}' is expected.
Please make sure that the xml document is valid against your schemas.
+</summary>+
+</part></invalidVariables>+
Has anyone faced similar issue as above ?
i.e. process works find in windows environment (local SOA), but fails in SOA server in UNIX environment
Appreciate your help in understanding this issue.
Thanks,
Santhosh

Hello,
The fix to this issue appears to have been as follows:
+<schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified"+
+     elementFormDefault="qualified"+
+     targetNamespace="http://xmlns.oracle.com/DummyBPELProcess"+
+     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">+
+     <element name="DummyBPELProcessProcessRequest">+
+          <complexType>+
+               <sequence>+
+                    <element name="input" type="string"/>+
+               </sequence>+
+          </complexType>+
+     </element>+
+     <element name="DummyBPELProcessProcessResponse">+
+          <complexType>+
+               <sequence>+
+                    <element name="*:result*" type="string"/>+
+               </sequence>+
+          </complexType>+
+     </element>+
+</schema>+
In DummyBPELProcess.xsd,
modifiying "result" to ":result" appears to have resolved the issue in SOA under unix environment.
If anyone can explain why "result" works in SOA under windows and ":result" works in SOA under unix environment, I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Santhosh

A Creative Zen MP3 Player which can work on Windows 2

Hi,
I am wanting to get a Creative Zen MP3 player (or two) which can work with Microsoft Windows 2000. I want to put a number of podcasts on it as well as some music. Unfortunately my PCs are all Windows 2000 and it is not worth my while upgrading.
Now I think that some of the Creative Zen Micro units used to work on 2000. But later versions after firmware upgrades only work on XP. How can I get the right working units?
AK

You can try to get some old Zen players.All new Zen players need at least Windows XP to work and sometimes even the last service pack. If you know that the Zen Micro works on Windows 2000 with a previous firmware, I think that you can find easily on the web this firmware or simply ask to Creative.
