Creative Zen MicroPhoto stopped work

Hi all,
I have a Zen Microphoto 8gb that i loved, before it stopped working.
Unfortunately, I let it fall from my hands to the floor.
And from this moment, it stopped working.
When I turn it on, only the Creative's logo appers on the screen.
Anyone here, already have this problem?
Do you know how to fix this? where?
Thanks a lot
LPicone

mine did the same thing today as well. i am trying to format it but it is taking a long time?

Creative Zen Microphoto 8GB hangs

Hello,
I have seen a lot of posts on the same subject here, but have not seen any resolution yet.
I am sure the story sounds familiar... hangs at "Creative" logo, I go into recovery mode, and run scan disk or format etc... They don't work. I have even left the player on "formatting" overnight until the battery drains and it never finishes, same goes for "Scanning".
I am on my 4th player now and am having the same issue again. This time the player is now out of warranty so I can't return it, and I am not paying money out of my own pocket to get this thing fixed. Please don't tell me this product is defecti've... I don't buy that excuse. And it isn't a corrupt file, because a reformat would fix that.
Once it hangs, my computer won't recognize it, so I can't even try to update the firmware or anything.
Any new updates or information on this issue? It is obviously a well documented problem...just google "Creative zen freezes" and see how any hits you get!
I am pretty disappointed with this player. I should have followed my gut instinct in the first place, and just bought an iPod. I spent a lot of money on this paper weight. Any help,advice,prayers,or donation$ (for a new iPod) would ge greatly appreciated!

Right you will need to download the latest firmware from this site.
Here is a hyperlink to where you can download the firmware:
http://uk.europe.creative.com/suppor...lect=4&x=9&y=2
You might have to put some details in.
Once you have downloaded the latest firmware just start the program up.
Plug in your Zen into the PC and then press the "Reload Firmware" button on your Zen.
You should see your computer screen pick it up.
Then you click on your PC to install firmware.
That should be it.
I hope this hel
ps.
Got any questions you have just post on this space.
I do apologise if this does not make much sence my grammer is not that brilliant.

Creative Zen Microphoto: Operating Syst

Guys,
Am I right in saying that I cannot use windows 2000 operating system on the Creative Zen Microphoto?
Is there any way around this? I now have a Zen Microphoto sitting in a box, useless to me because I only have Windows 2000!!!!

MarcSmith, I am not sure if you got it in your box. But I know it came in my box (I bought it at bestbuy, if it matters).
If you can return it even if it is open, then I say go ahead and open the box and look for a CD called Easy Start (it is microsoft). Instail that and you should be able to use it under media player 9. I also tried Media Monkey and it worked, so I think you can use any software that supports the player, after you instal the easy start cd.
You can now also charge the player using your computer.

Zen Micro - stopped working after less than a mo

Hi, I purchased a Zen Micro for my daughter's birthday 3 weeks ago. Played fine for a while, she got busy w/ school and let it sit idle for about a week. She charged the battery and now it will only display the Creative logo and nothing else. I can get to the recovery menu, but nothig seems to work there either, it just appears to look up not matter what operation is selected. What is up with this? No where does Creative give an idea how long the clean disk, format, or any other operation in the recovery menu operations should take. Even my PC doesn't recognize that it is connect to the USB port.
My daughter is quite upset that her new Zen mirco stopped working, I'm quite dissappointed with this so far. The Creative faqs were not helpful at all. I hope someone can walk me through the steps to get it working again. I really will be put off if it has to be sent out for repair, I don't want a refurbished unit, this one is like new.
Anybody else have the same problem/ How did you get it working again?
Thanks

Well I contacted cutomer service by phone, as suggested. They were much more helpful. Douglas knew right away that the micro hard disc had died just from the discription of the problem. He gave me an RMA and took down my information and sent me on my way. When I check my e-mail the RMA number was waiting with good instructions on how to return it.
What a shame the e-mail tech support was no anywhere near as helpful. They wanted me to down load new drivers and try it on another computer when I knew the USB ports were working OK.
The only gripe I have is they don't have a toll free number and I'm out the shipping and insurance to send it back. This better be the last time it fails.
Bottom line is if you have a Zen Micro that will only display the Creative logo, and Recovery Mode operations do not work at all, just call customer service for an RMA, your hard disc probably died too. I hope this is just a case of a bad bunch of micro disc. I don't want to have to keep doing this.

Creative Zen MicroPhoto has cras

My Creative Zen MicroPhoto fell foot onto the floor.
When i restarted- it compiled library for a 0 seconds and then continues to open as normal.
All my music and recordings do not appear in the menu system anymore. When i do a system check my stuff still takes up 3gb of storage but no files appear.
I have tried rebooting and clean up etc but still no joy.
I have tried the Recovery tool - but my laptop does recognize the device when i connect using USB.
Some of the recording of lectures and conferences are important to me.
Is there anyway of retrieving these?
thanks,

How are you transferring the music? Can you describe exactly what you do? For instance what software you use, what steps you follow to transfer the music...

Creative Zen Microphoto Not Detec

Hello all,
I bought a Creative Zen Microphoto yesterday and when I try and plug it in to my USB port nothing happens. I've tried holding the on/off button, I've tried it when it's on. I've tried all of my USB Ports. I've tried it on two different computers.
My computers are running Windows XP with Service Pack 2. I've disabled Norton while trying all of the above. Before plugging my mp3 player in I installed all the software that come on the CD.
Just to clarify this:
The Microphoto won't charge, be detected, etc while in the USB port. It runs fine off my PC ( plays the pre-installed songs, etc ) but as I cannot plug it in to my PC to charge it, add, songs, etc I cannot add my own songs.
Windows doesn't even pop up saying new hardware has been detected, or a USB device has been detected. It just remains how it was before I plugged the device in to my PC.
My computer doesn't show it in removalable devices, nor in Windows Media Player 0.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.Message Edited by Kemik on 07-3-2006 05:3 AM

Try this, go into the Control Panel and click Add/Remove Hardware. Just click next and see if it detects newly added hardware.
Can your computer detect any old flash dri've?

Creative Zen MicroPhoto/animated GI

[color="#6633ff">Hey, you guys, I was wondering if Creative Zen MicroPhotos[size="3" color="#6633ff"> are compatible with animated GIFs. They classify as a really short video for me. They're still pictures, but it's like a small scene that replays over and over. I found one of Napoleon Dynamite dancing, and I would love to have it as my player's background!
Thx.
<3 ya!

Nope, don't think so.

Creative Zen Microphoto half-instal

Hi, I have a zen microphoto and I was installing the software + drivers + stuff onto my computer and there was a power cut halfway through installing, now there is a creative folder in Program Files (presumably only half full) but no listing on the Add/Remove software tool and when I try to reinstall, it doesn't launch the installer and instead just says Creative Zen MicroPhoto was successfully installed, even though it wasn't.

My Creative Cloud has stopped working. If I click on the icon on my desktop nothing happens. I also cannot uninstall it. nothing happens

I also have this problem. I tried to reinstalll with the latest adobe download and it start, gets 10% through and then bombs out. It's in a deadlock.The only thing I think I can do is to restore the PC to before the installation and try again. THis is a ball ache because there are lots of other programs i need to reinstate to get back to normal. I have a support chatline open about the topic right now so If I get an answer I will let you know.
