Creative zen 20gb firmware frustrat

Good Morning,?I successfully purchased and successfully managed to get the creative zen mp3 player home but that's about where it has ended. Everytime I power up the device the "firmware problem" appears on the screen. I have downloaded the latest firmware from the creative website both on my laptop and on a mates pc. That is do-able but when it asks me to connect my player to the laptop or pc via the usb it does not recognize it whatsoever and just sits there with the window still asking for me to connect the player. It seems like a catch 22 where that the "firmware problem" mesage is stopping me being able to connect ot the laptop/pc but to be able to fix the problem I need to download the latest firmware to the player. I dont have vista or windows media player , as I have read up on that problem that exists. It's been a week now and I am frustrated with it. Can someone point me in the right direction and help turn my paper weight into a music player. Cheers Travman.

EVERYBODY.... IT MIGHT BE TOO LATE BUT DONT TRY WIPING AND REFORMATTING YOUR PLAYERsame thing happening to me my nomad juke zen nx has worked flawlessly for years until a couple of days ago with all kinds of SW issues cropping up when i went to put more music in( not being recognized / connecting and then disappearing / unable to view the players song library when connected / saying its connected one moment and gone the next )...the list goes onwent thru all of their fixs ie player scan disk no problems....rebooted...nuthin.....reformatted and wiped the dri've to start from zero and tried to reload the updated firmware and it will not load...it starts (player HD runs about a minute then stops) and then just hangs up for 5-0 minutes and then a popup says either player is not connected or on restart or connect the playerverified I have all the latest software and drivers so it must be a windows update kill your app fix. I?know the feeling that I now have an expensi've brick sitting on my desk...and im starting to jones @ work due to no tunes....on the other hand I have been looking at upgrading to a higher capacity player Wolverine makes 80 and 00 gig boxs so it might be time to kick creative to the curb!?

Creative Zen 20GB Firmware prob

I li've in Ireland and I have the original Creative zen but there doesn't seem to be any firmware for it available on the Nomad website; as I have to get some new firmware. Is there anywhere I can get it or can I upload Zen Micro firmware? If so, what versions? Your help is much appreciated.

well just go to creative.com, then go to support, then go to downloads. then zen touch then. then download the new firmware, well i mean old.
and reinstall

PLEASE HELP - Serious problem with my Creative Zen Touch firmware

Ok, so I finally decided that I would upgrade to the latest firmware version for my Creative Zen Touch. I knew that doing so would erase everything on it, so I backed up everything onto my computer's hard dri've. So from that standpoint, I'm in the clear.
HOWEVER, during the upgrade process, my computer froze, leaving my precious MP3 player without ANY firmware. This then drove it into "recovery" mode, where I can either clean up, format, or reload firmware. I've gone through each of these options, but when I go to "reload firmware" my computer will no longer detect my Zen! I've tried reinstalling different driver versions, different firmware versions, etc. The bottom line now is that my mp3 player has no firmware, and my computer won't detect it.
I feel like I probably need to go back to the basics. Unfortuantely, I don't have my installation CD with me. Can anyone post the initial installation file please? Thanks in advance!
I really hope I can work this out, I don't know if I've gone a day without my Zen in the past two years!

Simon, this is actually a common problem with the touch. Mine did it about a year after purchase, so I was safe to open it up and fix it. It is actually a really simple fix and is due to a loose connector. I know alot of other people on nomadness.net were having this problem, so I posted a solution here. Hope this helps!

Your link goes to the firmware for the NOMAD Jukebox 6/0/20/c.
I do believe you have the Zen since you posted in this thread, so you might want to download from here:

Creative Zen micro: "Firmware Problem&qu

hey, i have a Creative zen micro (orange, 6gb but i think it doesent matters"), but when i turn it on, it says "Firmware problem".
and it goes to the menu (think is called Recovery menu) and it shows:
Creative Zen Micro V0.0.65
1.Clean Up
2.Format all
3.Reload frimware
4.Reboot
now creative tells me to download a new firmware.
i did.
then to "RELOAD FIRMWARE"
and click on the upgrade, but then it says that there is no player connected, and my compuer does recognize it.
is there any way to fix this or is my zen busted?

I had a simalar problem with my Zen xtra, if it failed durng a firmware update and its stuck in recue mode try this:
Remove all creative software and drivers from your P.C
remove windows media player and media player runtime ( from control panel/add/remove programs - if you have them listed there) you should see it go through a rollbackl procedure to an earlier version of wiondows media player.
Downlaod the latest firmware for your player
Re-boot/re start your P.C
Go to the creative support website, and download the plays for sure software suite
listed as:
<i>. Creative MediaSource Plugin for PlaysForSure devices (version .00.8)3.98 MB 28 Apr 05 </i>
install the software by clicking on it.
RE-boot your P.C, with your player conected via USB
once your P.C re-starts, go to the location where the firmware was downloaded to and get ready to start the upgrade
Copnnect your player to its charger ( unless it charges via USB)
On your player slect the reload OS option in the rescue menu
When prompted by your player start the firmware update on your PC.
<i>with the Zen xtra firmware you had/need to select the language option in the update on the P.C when the p[layer displays the 'update over USB' message.</i>

'Thanks a million for the link, KokChoy-CL! You are now on my X-mas present list.
I have been using the .0.03 firmware, but recently I read http://forums.creative.com/t5/MP3-Players/Zen-Touch-Custom-EQ-Frequencies-Wrong/m-p/64205" and wanted to try out the .00.06 firmware. Comparing from memory and using custom EQ, lows and mids sound much more clear now while bass is a bit more on the light side.

HILFE......Creative Zen Xtra Firmware Prob

Hallo, leider kann ich nicht englisch, aber meine Hoffnung ist, dass hier jemand deutsch versteht und ich hier Hilfe bekomme. Ich habe mir einen MP3 Player gekauft. Und zwar einen
Creative Zen Xtra 30 GB.
Da ich dachte, dass der Player mit neuer Firmware noch besser funktionieren w rde, habe ich versucht die Firmware 2.0.3.0 zu installieren.
Aber w hrend dem Installieren gab es einen Stromausfall und jetzt geht gar nichts mehr. Jetzt meldet der Player immer: Firmware Problem.
Wenn ich auf Arbeitsplatz gehe, ist der Player aufgef hrt. Aber wenn ich die neue Firmware laden will, erscheint immer: Player nicht angeschlossen.
Ich habe es mit Media Player 9 und 0 und probiert, mit dem gleichen Resultat.
Auf dem Arbeitsplatz erscheint der Player als Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra. Wenn ich ihn dann durch Doppelklick ffne, erscheint Storage Media und darunter steht 20.0 MB frei von 20.0 MB.
Ich bin eine Hausfrau und habe nicht besonders viel Ahnung von all diesen Dingen. Ich m chte nur, dass mein Player wieder funktioniert und ich meine Musik und meine H rb cher wieder h ren kann.
Bitte, bitte, kann mir jemand helfen
F r eure Hilfe jetzt schon ein grosses DANKE.
Gruss Annemarie

Creative Zen Micro Firmware Prob

So I've got a Zen Micro bout a year or two back and it stopped working a whle back.
It turns on fine but used to make a buzzing sound and?freeze. It had a small box with?'Firmware Problem' written on the screen.
Lately, it still makes the?buzzing sound but freezes on the Creative Logo screen.
I've tried to renew the Firmware and I tried the recovery tool thing, but neither worked.
Is there any way to fix it's Or is it totaly gone?
Thanks in advance.

Did the firmware problem happen during a firmware update, or did it just happen all of a sudden, and if so how?
to re-load the firmware, download the latest firmware on a Windows XP machine, go to control panel, tne add/remove programs, look for windows media player and if its there click on remove, you should see a window saying something along the lines of windows media player rollback.
Next lok for something called ( or somethg like)windows media player runtime, and remove that ( it may show the roll back screen again, continue, and complete the process)
re-start windows
Plug in your Creative MP3 player via USB connect it to a chharger ( if it uses/can use an external charger) and let it go to 'rescue mode'
Click on the firmware update, and when it asks you what language, highlight re-load OS ( or firmware) in recovery mode on your player.
As soon as the screen on your player prompts you to re-load firmware, click on your language choice on the P.C upgrade window.
If there is no language option, then get ready to select re-load OS on your player when the update starts on your P.C.
This only works with XP
If the above doesnt work:
Did the firmware error occur as a result of an attemtp to upgrade the formware to a plays for sure version?
Is the player regognised by your P.C running windows XP? ( go to control panel then hardware, then device manager?
This is what happened when i tried to upgrade ther firmware on my Zen xtra, what i did to fix it was based on what other people had tried on various other creative playerws such as the touch/micro/vision etc

Creative Zen Xtra Firmware Upgrade Problems v1

While trying to upgrade the firmware on my Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra, there was a problem with the upgrade. I'm now stuck in rescue mode v.3. When I plug the MP3 player into the computer, Windows will recognize it and asks me what to do. I exit that window and try to run the firmware update again. The firmware program tells me "Your player is not connected, please connect your player."? there are 2 options "Upgrade" and "close". Upgrade is greyed out, but close is clickable. I've tried
1. clean up,
2. format all,
3. reload OS and
4. Reboot.
None of those options seems to do me any good. I've uninstalled all the Creative software from my computer, but still no luck. Please help me. I'm doing my best to avoid having to go buy an iPod, but if I can't get my Creative Mp3 player to work, I guess I will have to. I have spent a lot of money between cables, the docking station and the leather case. I'd hate for all this to be wasted, so please help me.
I've tried to "reload the OS" and then clicked on the language the moment the Player told me to start the update. Someone please shed some light on this for me. I've tried email Customer Support. I've searched Google. I've put my best skills on it and of course I've scoured this website to no prevail. Someone help me out.

READ ALL BEFORE PROCEEDING You do need to install the driver. http://support.creative.com/Products...e=MP3+Players# When you get to the page for your player bottom left the manual selection choose Xp & clik submit the driver should be the first one version 2.0.00 .After the driver is installed when you plug in the player check in device manager to see that it shows up there Start>Control Panel> System>Hardware>Device Manager look under Portable Devices or for the name of the player. Use a rear USB Port to assure a good connection. Then run the firmware file on the computer ,choose reload firmware or Os on the player,choose language when player asks for update(the pop-up from windows indicating that it "sees" the device DO NOT CLOSE IT.)
