Creative Zen install CD doesn't work on Windows 7 / 64 bit

My installation CD for my Creative Zen will not load on my new pc - Windows 7 / 64 bit. I tried downloading Media Source from website, it seemed to work but would not recognize my zen when connected. Please help

Thanks!
I figured out how to get Creative mediasource on Windows 7 by using the 5.26.02 version but it won't recognize my Zen Touch. Further searching brought up using the Plays for Sure Plugin 5.00.36 but was warned that it wipes my Zen clean to install updated firmaware. Will the pack you linked do the same?
I'm guessing I should back up my current library in any case. As soon as I figure that out on my old XP pc, I will forge ahead.

  • 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?

    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.

  • My creative zen nano plus doesn't work anym

    Hi I've a problem with my mp3 player. It just doesn't work. After I made a powerpoint file on it (normaly that did not cast problems) it went on and in the same time it wents off. Like the battery is not loaded. I wanted to make an update with a file from the creative page, but in the same time it did not do anything. I can not turn it on. It does nothing.
    Can somebody help me? Had anyone the same experience?

    i cant find where this other guy who said like the same thing
    They must have been talking about a different player such as the Zen Micro which does recharge via the USB port.

  • Install disk doesn't work with Windows Vista

    I just bought a new HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw and the install disk isn't compatible with Windows Vista.  Apparently there's no ful feature option for Windows Vista on an HP laptop.  After several hours of work I downloaded several drivers and got the printer to print, but the scan function doesn't work that well without the HP software which hasn't been created for Windows Vista.

    I am having a very similar problem but do not have an answer either.  I am running an X61 Type 7676A12 with a Lenovo ACP50 port replicator FRU part number 40Y8160.  I am running Windows XP Pro.  The port replicator has never been very great and would not restore the external monitor picture properly when the laptop had been in sleep mode however it was serviceable if not optimal.  After downloading and installing the October MS security updates the machine would get a BSOD when the port replicator was plugged in.  Remove the replicator and reboot and it worked ok.  Plug it in again and BSOD.  I tried upgrading the drivers from 5.1.4a to 7.1.1.03Aug07 and then to 7.1.2.  No go.  Emailing Targus with the problem got no response.  The port replicator is now relegated to my junk heap of useless rubbish.

  • X-fi Xtreme Audio doesn't work in Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello everyone,
    I know this is a known issue and I've found many topics on this, but still I can't find any solution and I hope you can help.
    I've a Creative X-fi Xtreme Audio that was working perfectly under Windows XP SP3 but then I've upgraded to Windows 7 64 bit and the sound coming out from my speakers is awful. I've installed the latest driver from creative home site, I've updated the OS via "microsoft Update", I've tried many suggestions I've found on the web to solve this, like phisically change the PCI slot of the sound card, or reduce the ram ammount via msconfig but it didn't work. I've tried some custom driver either, the support pack 2.7 by Daniel?K. but nothing... I'm still at the starting point.
    What should I do?
    This is my actual configuration:
    OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Premium SP v 6..760
    CPU: AMD Athlon 64x2 6000+
    MB: Asus M3N78 SE (with the latest bios version 002)
    Ram: 4gb
    Video: nVidia GeForce GT 220

    I use CS4 on a Windows 7 64-bit computer.
    I noticed that none of the extensions I installed with the Extension Manager don't appear at all in any of the CS4 programs.
    Can anyone tell me why this doesn't work or how to solve this problem?
    Try posting to the Extension Manager forum:

  • Zen Micro CD doesn't work on Windows Vis

    Hi:?I got a new computer that uses Vista. I'm trying to install the drivers and whatnot of my Zen Micro, but the CD isn't working. Is there a way I can download the drivers onto my computer without using the CD or is there a setting that I need to do in order to get my CD to work?I'd appreciate any help!

    Try http://us.creative.com/support/downl...ype=0&x=23&y=2?
    However I am not sure if the Zen Micro is supported under Windows VISTA.

  • Zen Sync Manager doesn't work with Windows 7

    I have a Zen 6GB MP3 player, firmware version .2.03_0.03.0.
    I recently upgraded my computer from Windows Vista to Windows 7. Sync Manager (looks like version 6.4.8.0, dated 7/7/2007) worked fine with Vista, and it even worked for a few days after I upgraded, but now it does not recognize that there is a player connected.
    Zen Media Explorer still works, so I can drag and drop audio files to the Zen, but this is a bit of a pain. More importantly, I need to find a way to sync organizer (Outlook) data.
    I have tried running Sync Manager in various compatibility modes (Vista, XP SP3, XP SP2), but it still will not recognize the player. From something I read in another post in this forum, I'm wondering if I need to uninstall Sync Manager and reinstall it in a compatibility mode? All my other applications work fine with Win 7, so I'm not that familiar with how to use compatibility mode properly.
    Thanks!

    I tried every which way to solve this problem, and in the end contacted Ctreati've tech support. They advised the following:
    "Please be advised that, currently, we do not have Creative Media Explorer (Sync Manager) and firmware updates available for ZEN on Windows 7 OS.
    Creative is working constantly on updates for Windows 7 users who are using Creative products. These updates will be deli'vered from time to time on our website. We encourage you to often visit our support site, http://support.creative.com/ and forum page, http://forums.creative.com/ for product updates and announcements."

  • Captivate 4 doesn't work with windows 7  - 64 bit system

    I've tried to install captivate 4 on my pc with processor Intel core 2 duo, Microsoft Windows 7 Home premium, system based on 64 bit system.
    When you try to make a simulation, after registration you cannot see the slides. If you try also to open a cp4 file, it's impossible to show the storyboard.
    Please help me. Does exist a patch?

    Antonio,
    The FAQ section on the Adobe webpages for Captivate 4 and 5 clearly state that the program is only certified for 32-bit versions of Windows.  Why?  Don't ask me.  64-bit Windows platforms have been around for 3 years now and Adobe is surely taking their sweet time acknowledging that fact.
    Here's the issue, as testing within our company has demonstrated...
    The program (Captivate 4, specifically) works on a 64-bit PC (with the latest patch), providing you are recording a 32-bit application.
    When attempting to record a 64-bit application, only one frame is captured.  After initiating the recording, whether in automatic or manual mode, all keyboard and mouse input is ignored.  The only response you can get is clicking the tray icon to end the recording session.
    However, full-motion recording of 64-bit applications does work, since the camera runs continuously regardles of keyboard and mouse activity.
    I have been told by another forum member that still frames can be captured by "clicking the red recording square," though I haven't tested this method yet and it doesn't address going in and out of full-motion recording.
    Cheers

  • Save a copy doesn't work on Windows 7 32-bit

    I upgraded from Vista to Win 7 32 bit Home Premium and after opening a web PDF (IE8) the save a copy button will not save a copy.  I'm trying from the Best Buy credit card site.  I uninstalled Reader and reinstalled v9.2.  I'm hoping someone else has encountered this problem and has found a fix.

    If you are needing more drivers and Lenovo utilities I suggest you download and install ThinkVantage SystemUpdate.

  • Satellite A210 (PSAEG) - Microphone doesn't work on Windows 7 64bit

    Hello, the micro doesn't work under windows 7 64 bit, the driver I'm using is Windows Vsta 64 bit. The volume is set up maximun and so is the amplification but no way to make it work with skype or toshiba camera assistant software.
    Can anyone help me?
    thank you

    Hi Largo09,
    Usually you have to install the webcam and sound driver to get the microphone working. The microphone is a part of webcam
    As you wrote, Satellite A210 is not Windows 7 64bit supported so the only option you have are Vista 64bit drivers
    In my opinion you should check if Microphone is enabled in Windows sound settings. There you can also enable Microphone boost, that can increase the microphone volume.

  • Rich Textbox example doesn't work in Windows 7

    In the past I use the Rich Textbox example (\samples\userint\activex\richTextxbox.prj) in Windows XP (CVI 2010 SP1).
    Now I noticed that this example doesn't work in Windows 7 64-bit because the ActiveX is not registered on the system (see attached error.jpg).
    Isn't this control installed by CVI IDE itself?
    How can I get this example working on my Win 7 64-bit machine?

    Hi Vix
    It looks like the Rich Textbox control component provided by one of the VB runtimes is no longer included by default with Windows 7.
    I have been able to manually register the ActiveX control using Regsvr32 as described in the following Microsoft KB.
    I was able to download the needed ActiveX control from here and from there you need to copy the .ocx ActiveX control to your C:\Windows\SysWOW64 directory. Open up a command prompt as administrator and run 'REGSVR32 RICHTX32.OCX'.
    SysWOW64 is the 'Windows On Windows' emulation directory which is used for running 32 bit controls in a 64 bit environment.
    I realise this isn't the best solution as it will make application deployment a little more complicated, another solution may be to use another RTF ActiveX control such as the one here: http://www.lebans.com/richtext.htm.

  • Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App Doesn't Work Windows 8.1

    The Creative Cloud Desktop App doesn't work on my PC running Windows 8.1. As shown below, no apps appear and the settings dropdown does not function with either left or right click. I have tried to uninstall, reinstall, change the name of the OOBE folder, connect directly to my cable modem by passing my router, removing all internet & firewall protection and I am unable to download any CC apps that I do not have on my PC. I have been updating existing apps from the help menus in the apps and have not used the CC app for downloads for a long time so I do not know when the problem started, but it does not work now. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Automatic updates are also not working.
    Thanks,
    Barry

    Turning off "Enable Protected Mode" in the Security Tab of Internet Properties allowed the Creative Cloud Desktop App to function properly. I am still looking for a better long term solution that does not put my computer's security at risk.
