Creative zen micro error message ?

Hello,
i have got a creative zen micro mp3 player but he is now giving me an error message like this:
"select music to be riproduced from library music"?
and also it does not display anymore song name and its artist during song playing.
Can anyone explain me why does it happen ? How do I solve it ? (i want song details back on? my player and i want that message disappear)
Last week my mp3 player falled down.
Thanks a lot, bye.

&Have you tried to clean up or re-format your player?
. Ensure that the ZEN Micro is turned off.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Move and hold the Power button to the Power On position and re-insert the battery to the ZEN Micro.
4. Hold the Power button until the Rescue mode appears.
5. Choose clean up or format all and reboot

Creative Zen Micro : Error w Playl

I'm having problems with transferring an entire imported playlist into my zen micro.
I've recently updated both my firmware and MediaSource to the latest version. Loaded MediaSource up and imported a playlist that i created using winamp. Then I clicked and dropped the playlist into my zen micro and a new window pops up showing the progress of the songs transferring into it. But while transferring, many of the files had Error under the Progress. Note that I am able to listen to the songs in winamp, but am unable to listen to the "Error songs" in MediaSource. Attached is a screenshot of what happened.

I've tried to create a new playlist in MediaSource, and imported the songs. But it also did not work.
Also, I found out that under My Playlists in my Zen Micro, there are many playlists named Creative Zen Micro, while the one that I've highlighted was the only one that I've created.

Went into rescue mode, reformatted the zen micro and even did a clean up. Nothing worked.
So, can anyone help me see what's wrong? Hopefully someone here can help before I email the Customer Service team again.
Thanks in advance. =)Message Edited by milo_dinosaur on 0-9-2005 :54 AM

Yes I'm currently using 3.30.2
I've finally found the problem. My computer currently has 2 user profiles, the first one is 'Owner' and it's the directory I've saved my mp3 files at. Second one is called 'pokey' (just a nickname, don't ask why! :P) which I frequently use. So, my playlist called 'blabla.m3u' was saved under pokey, which is C:\Documents and Settings\pokey\My Documents\blabla.m3u.
I opened up my playlist using notepad and saw that it's file path was
"\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Music\Apocalyptica - Bittersweet.mp3"
So, MediaSource would just tag the filepath of that song as
"C:\Documents and Settings\pokey\My Documents\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Music\Apocalyptica - Bittersweet.mp3"
That was where it went wrong.
Now, I save my playlists under the 'Owner' profile, and it works fine. file path shows up as
"C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Music\Apocalyptica - Bittersweet.mp3"
which is exactly where I placed the files.
So now everything works fine. The thing is that I have to save the playlist in the same profile as where the mp3s are located at.
The error actually existed because MediaSource couldn't find the file at the designated filepath. I guess it was an error on my part.
Anyway, thanks for the quick reply! It's really very much appreciated.Message Edited by milo_dinosaur on 0-9-2005 0:24 PM

Creative Zen Micro: Error copying m

Hi,
My Creative Zen Micro is just a day old and after transferring 20 MP3s it says error on every following track i want to transfer.
The first 20 Songs were copied but then I cant transfer any more, no matter which one i choose.
can anybody help me with this problem?

Can you try a disk cleanup on the player. To run a Disk Cleanup you need to access the Rescue Mode on the Zen Micro. To access the Rescue Mode: remove the battery, hold the power switch to the "on" position and KEEP IT HELD TO "ON" while reinserting the battery. Choose Disk Cleanup from the menu. Note: Disk cleanup should not remove your tracks. It searches through the disk for files and rebuilds the index, and can be useful for correcting any strange behaviour.
Failing that, what firmware version are you using, and what software to copy?

Mp3 Player not detected in Vista ,I need drivers for Creative Zen Micro in Windows Vista 32-b

Hi ,?Im trying to install my Creative Zen Micro in windows Vista , But A Compatibility Problem appear and i can't install it .Windows Show me that a new hardware is found? and what i have to do , i Install it with the CD , but The installation can't be successful and a message saying me i have to contact Creative Support for the dirvers appear and the installation can't be completed. I've tryied to contact creative suport , but they don't find solution . I've searched the drivers but they wasn't found in creative site web . If anybody Have a solution for install my zen micro or can help me , please ... I have to buy another Mp3 Player ? This have a solution ?Thanks ,i hope that you can help me. Regards

I updated my Firmware as stated by Creative Labs support team. I downloaded on my son's PC which has Window's XP Pro edition. Again, on his PC there is no problem with recognition of the device and/or player. However, when I plug my player into my PC which has Vista, the device manager has a "!" next to ZEN Micro Photo. So my PC "See's" the player. However, when you right click and then go to "Properties" it states that "The drivers for this device are not installed (code 28)" Then it states to "reinstall the drivers" But when I tried to install or reinstall the "Driver" using the install wizard, I get an error message... "An error occurred during the installation of the device" and " A service installation section in this INF is invalid" Then a pop bubble appears and says "Found new hardware" You may have a problem with your device. It may not be working properly" So what do I do at this point. The only way for me currently to download music is to use my son's PC. At least I have another option... I feel sorry for the rest of you. When will creative wake up and smell the Vista!!

Creative Zen Micro: Driver problems and mo

Hello, hope somebody can help me out a bit here.
My Creative Zen Micro seems to have stumbled rather severely. I get a firmware error and the recovery menu. I've tried the Clean Up tool, Formatting it, and reloading the firmware doesn't work at all, as the Zen won't connect properly on my Win2k box (probably due to the lack of support for it on Win2k).
It does connect (sort of) in Windows Media Player, which is where I transferred most of my music to begin with, though now it displays nothing in the contents of the Zens harddisk (obviously this was before I formatted my Zen).
So I tried installing the drivers on my new computer which runs Windows XP SP2. The drivers install, but Windows doesn't seem to care. When I plug in the Zen I get a "Found New Hardware" message, however it can't seem to locate the drivers I just installed.
I think I might be able to get things going right if only the drivers would work on WinXP. Or it might just be that the Zen is totally borked. I'm unsure.
Any thoughts?

Really hate to bump my own thread.. but.. anyone have any ideas what to do?

Creative Zen Micro Hard Drive Er

Hi, my Creative Zen Micro has an hard dri've error. I tried Recovery Mode on it but once it turns on, it doesn't display Recovery Mode but Hardri've error. I was wondering if anyone could help. I was playing a song in wma format and I have the latest firmwire, v..0. As it was playing, it froze on me, I took the battery off to shut it, and when I inserted the battery back in, it came up with the hard dri've error message. Can anyone help me?

Hard disk error is a serious one unfortunately, and as I'm sure you guessed it means the hard disk has failed in some way.
You can try the advice here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net at your OWN RISK.
If you aren't under warranty you can contact Creative Support to see if they will repair it. If you want to try repairing it yourself, taking the risk the hard disk is at fault, then you can follow Rudi Cheow's excellent guide. There's also a thread here at the Zen Nomadness.net forum on compatible dri'ves, and the last page of Rudi's guide also has information on this.

Help with my Bran-New Creative Zen Micro Photo. [Questi

<EM>If you don't want to see the backing of my whole story skip to the bold print at the bottom!</EM>I also want you to know I read the FAQs and searched through some topics like this, but haven't found any asking my question.First of all, I'm new to the forum, but I've been researching Creative's Zen for a long time now. I kept observing each one closely before I purchased a product. I then saw the Zen Micro Photo come out. This one won my attention. I loved this, I quickly searched for reviews and went for the buy for Christmas. I told my dad about it and he was "iffy" on the price, but it was better then the iPod in my opinion.Christmas day came and I opened it. Right away I checked everything out I knew a lot about the menu already and all, but not really how to control it. I checked to make sure everything worked. All systems were go. After listening to the defaults (which I loved) I went to go install the software. I already had Media Player 0 and Adobe, oh and I didn't want the freakin AOL toolbar! Lol, so I installed everything else. It took forever, but I hooked it up and I installed the drivers, but as soon as I plug in the USB connector I see: "A HIGH-SPEED USB device has been plugged into a LOW SPEED USB port.After that, I switched USB ports, btu I got same message. I hit the X and then tried to charge. I got the Lightening Bolt, but no dimming of lights. I found out that this computer is not letting me install any service packs, I'm confused about that.My question:Is there anyway I can charge this mp3 player and download music onto my Zen Micro Photo without Service Pack ? Or did I just pay $250 for a really cool glowing mp3 player to be used as a paperweight? (I love this Zen and I ran the battery dead hoping that would make the charging easier).Help?
My Specifications:
My Mp3 Player: Zen Micro Photo (Black)What I tried: Switching USB ports and re-installing Service Pack Software: Not sure how to determine firmware without installing something. I'm on a XP Professional and I'm using the Creative Media Source and Creative Media Toolbox

Thank you DM for responding. I am expecting problems, but it still won't allow me to charge the Zen Micro Photo or even use the Creative Media Source. I can't upload any songs or any contacts on it. I haven't uploaded anything yet, but it's not reading the USB device. When I run Creative Zen Micro Photo Media Explorer I get this message at the top of the screen: "The device is not connected. Please connect your Zen MicroPhoto to the computer. I can't organize anything or add songs... so it just makes all the programs I downloaded useless and my Creative product unusuable.ONe thing it does do though... whenever I plug in my Zen MIcroPhoto to the USB it turns it on and glows, but only shows my battery at the top with one red line and the green lightening bolt filling the battery up.After leaving it like this for two hours the green moves, but the red bar stays the same size.

Having big problems with Creative Zen Micro Photo!! I need much urgent help!

Hi. I am having a big problem with my MP3 Creative Zen Micro Photo device at the computer.Here is the thing:Before I bought this I had the regular Zen Micro & having fun with it. I had no problems with that when I used the Media Explorer to transfer songs. So I bought the Zen Micro Photo & installed it my computer. As normal I used the Media Explorer to transfer songs & pictures.So I reinstalled Windows XP at my computer, and when I installed the CD that followed to transfer new songs, the Windows said that it's an unknown thing I have connected in the USB.So I installed Service Pack & 2. I have tried to install drivers from the cd but it seems that there are no drivers on the cd! The big problem is that when I connect the MP3 to the computer, it doesn't read it's a Zen Micro, it's just unknown! So the Zen Micro Photo Media Explorer program doesn't work & I can't transfer songs or picture on it! And it just happened after I re-installed Windows on my computer. The same thing happened on my brother's computer after he re-installed windows. And when I connect the MP3 to the USB, it says that it's not a USB 2.0, but .! And I am sure it is 2.0 because it has always been like that before I re-installed windows. Also the MP3 does not re-charge when I put it my computer! The battery is just the same, it tries to do it but it doesn't. So I am using my sisters computer to charge the MP3 & transfer songs. I have tried everything but I can't seem to understand what the problem is? I have never experienced something like this before, and I really hope you can help me with this! To be honest I think what I am missing is the driver. So can someone PLEASE provide me the link for the driver? I have downloaded all those 3 on www.creative.com, but they are none of them! Also that playforsure firmawre thingy does not work because it sais that I have to connect my MP3, and it is connected already!Please reply as quick as possible! Thanks a lot for you kind help!
I have also sent this mail to creative support! But please help me I have had this problem for almost 2 months now! =(Message Edited by anakwalajinn on 05-0-2006 08:47 PM

If you are getting errors when installing this suggests a problem with the Windows install. Have you tried the install CD?

Thinking about becoming a Creative Zen Micro users, BU

I am looking for the Creative Zen Micro Photo that I saw announced on Cnet.com. This product is suppose to be the upgrade to the creative zen micro, but it will now have a COLOR screen. Does anyone know when it will be available, and how much it will cost? On cnet.com they said Quarter 2, which we are currently in.

Creative Zen Micro - FM Radio Bro

Hi, I want to explain my bad experience with a Creative Zen Micro 6GB.
I bought it in late December 2005, and until now always worked fine.
Suddently, some days ago the Radio FM men? disappeared, as described in some other messages here in the forum. I've tryed to reset it, and to upgrade firmware again.
The upgrade procedure went fine, the reset/disk cleanup/format ecc. from Recovery Men? went fine too, but as final result the FM Radio doesn't work anymore at all.
Sometimes FM Radio men? appers, sometimes not (yes, randomly); moreover, when I try to enter FM Radio men?, the Creative Zen locks
I think I can't do anything else more, I already contacted Creative for support.
I already had nice experience with Creative support, so I don't worry too much; I'm just annoyed that a brand new product broke so soon...

just a straight stereo patch cable (like with the headphone jack on both ends)...from your player to the line in jack on your sound card. they are like 5 bucks at radio shackMessage Edited by flyer608 on 02-07-2005 2:50 AM

Creative Zen Micro 6GB probl

I've some problems with my Creative Zen Micro 6GB MP3-player.
It won't go on anymore because the on/off button is broken.
The MP3-Player already had some problems with getting stuck while it was?starting up, so the new problem with the on/off button was new. I've send an e-mail to Creative support but I already did that for 2 months ago and I got no answer. Does anybody knows what I should do or what the adress of Creative is in The Netherlands so I can send my Zen to them?Message Edited by Mattijs on 02-4-200703:53 AM

To send in a unit you have to arrange that with Customer Support first, they will arrange everything and give you the address details along with a reference number that must be on the front of the package when you send it to us.
When you e-mailed us before, did you get an auto response back? That always goes out, if you didn't receive that, it's possible that either your request didn't arri've with us, or that you did get a response but it got stuck in a spam filter (if you have one set up).

Creative Zen Micro isn't detected

When I connect the Creative Zen Micro with the USB cable the computer asks me wether I'd like to synchronise my player with Windows Media Player or do nothing, but then it always gives me a message, that the computer can't detect the player. I can't put new music on it, for example via explorer, nor I can update the Firmware or something else. I rolled Windows Media Player back on a lower edition and installed WMP0, but it still does not work. I use Windows XP.
Additional the player rebuilds library everytime I switch it on, plus some time ago there were several music files on the player deleted - without me doing anything.
Does somebody know what to do?

Did you erase your firmware?Have you done a Cleanup>Reboot on the player? http://forums.creative.com/creativel...ap&thread.id=3
