Creative Zen Nano 1GB - Firmw

Hi,
I am using creative zen nano GB player. In downloads sections i can't abt to find the firmware for "zen nano GB". Can any one tell where we can get firmware for "Zen Nano GB" firmware. Thanks in advance. Bala

The Nano Plus works fine with AAA nimh rechargeable batteries. The great thing about a player that uses a AAA battery is that AAA nimh rechargeables are inexpensi've, and most chargers will charge up to 4 batteries at a time. A charger and 4 AAA nimh batteries is only around $20. When a battery runs out of power just replace it with a charged one. If someone has a player with a built in battery, then when the battery power is exhausted, they can't listen to music until the player is recharged.

  • Creative Zen Nano 1GB battery chargin

    Hi, I cannot find a sales line contact for Creative UK so hopefully someone can answer my question as I would like to buy one today if possible. It doesnt appear to ship with any battery charger or mains adapter so I am wondering if I need to buy new batteries each time they run out [8 hours]. If this is the case, has anyone any suggestions for a rechargable battery that works?
    Thanx

    Hi everyone, I would like to enquire if anyone know where to get Creative Zen Nano Plus GB shell, mine got quite badly damaged but the electronics are in perfect condition. So I'd like to get just the shell and the battery cover, plus maybe the buttons too. Thanks.

  • Creative Zen Nano player does not p

    My Creative Zen Nano is getting power on, but it does not play the music. I have many music files and those files have been played for long time, but now they are not playing. When I checked the contents of the player using my PC, the folders are shown as .exe files. Could you please let me know how to correct the player, so that it could play the files. Thanks in advance.

    Not work SORT files : Genres--> Artists--> Albums. (SORT by ID3 tags ?)

    Creative Zen Nano Plus Media Explorer only works for the administrator account; for other users the message "The Zen Nano Plus is not connected. Please connect your Zen Nano Plus to the computer." is displayed, but it *is* connected and works under other programs.
    Version is .0.03.

    How exactly do you do this? I checked this out tonight - when I logged onto my PC using my son's Limited User account (XP Home, BTW) I could connect his N200 and see it in Device Manager and Windows Explorer but both Creative pieces of software (CMS and N200 Media Explorer) did not see that it was there!
    I tried setting the Run As... properties for the CTMS.exe file to run as one of the Admin user accounts but kept getting an error about being unable to find a specific file (which is in the Media Explorer folder!). When I went back to using the current user the error stopped. Perhaps I need to set the Run As.. options on that file as well?
    As we don't use DRM'd music this isn't going to be a problem but it would be good to find out the cause of this once and for all.
    I'm going to see if WMP0 has problems as well or if it's just the Creative ap

  • Zen Nano 1GB (not plus) not playing DRM audio bo

    Okay. So I've read very similar problems here, but none quite like mine. I've read through my manual (actually, I only have the downloaded manuals, and there doesn't seem to be one for a Zen Nano GB... It's not a Plus and it's not a Nano 52MB).
    My whole reason for purchasing my Nano was b/c it can play DRM audio files & I want to listen to audio book downloads.
    In any case, I know not to drop and drag my DRM files, that won't work.
    I got a (refurbished, works fine) Zen Nano GB a few weeks go. If I drag and drop regular mp3 or WMA audio files, they work fine. If I sync regular song files with WMP, they work fine.
    It's the DRM files I'm having problems with. I tried sync-ing with WMP , (after opening the DRM file and obtaining the license (these are audio books from NetLibrary.com, and I've followed their instructions as well as those for the Nano). Once I've obtained the license, I sync. The audio book appears on the Nano, but will not play.
    I tried updating (or, perhaps it was downgrading) the firmware, and then used WMP 9 to sync, and managed to get one audio book to play. I thought I was ready to go. It was awesome. The whole book played and I enjoyed it.... but... once I finished the book, and re-synced and tried to add a new book.... nothing.
    I've re-installed various versions of firmware, tried on WMP and WMP 9 AND tried using Creative's own software to sync (after opening the files in WMP and obtaining the license)... Nothing. Lots of wasted time, tho.
    I'm not quite a newbie with mp3 players or computers, but I am capable of "missing" something.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide & please let me know if I forgot anything specific that could aid in any solutions,

    To "downgrade" firmware (I don't have any idea if that's what it's really called, it's certainly not an upgrade!):
    Through another posting on this message board, I found a link to this site:
    http://dapjukebox.altervista.org/mod...ownload&cid=85
    which has other firmware versions available (some are still on the Creative downloads page as well, but the oldest ones are not). The site seems to be in Italian (?).
    I downloaded and saved (and virus-scanned) the firmware of _0_02.
    Then, I followed the installation instructions from another firmware download from Creative:
    "To install this firmware, do the following:
    1. Download the [_0_02] file into your local hard disk.
    2. Make sure your player is connected to your computer.
    3. Double-click the downloaded file.
    4. If you are prompted to reset your player, click OK.
    5. If the Find New Hardware dialog box appears on the computer screen, follow the instructions on the screen to complete the wizard.
    6. When the firmware download dialog box appears, click Start and follow the instructions on the screen."
    Because I had nothing on my player, I didn't have anything to lose, data-wise. And it worked. One of these days I may try to upgraded the firmware to see if I can still transfer...
    I saved a few other firmware downloads (updates) to try in the future -- rather than go hunting for them again.
    Please note, the Nano I have isn't listed in the Creative products -- the one I have says Creative Zen Nano GB on it; no where can I find such a thing. Since it's a factory refirbished model I bought off e-bay, I suspected older firmware may work on it... If you have a newer model, it may not work. I'm not an expert (this whole MP3 stuff still boggles my 37-year-old mind sometimes), so be careful what you do to your player!
    Good luck,

  • Creative Zen Nano Plus..cords..warnin

    Hello. i just got a Creative Zen Nano Plus and while I was going through the manual that came with it I noticed there was a warning about the cord(s): "WARINING: The cord(s) included with this product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproducti've harm. Wash hands after handling. " I'm wondering if Creative has changed the components of these cords. And if so can they be replaced somehow. I don't want to use a cord that may cause cancer or birth defects.

    From a previous thread on this:
    California law states that notification should be given if a product contains certain amounts of lead. Many types of electrical cords use small amounts of lead to make them more flexible and the USB cord used with many of our products is no different.
    I believe a more official source of information regarding the Lead disclaimer, it's origin and purpose, can be found here: http://www.oehha.ca.gov/prop65.html

  • My Creative Zen Nano Plus bro

    my Creative Zen Nano Plus mp3 player stopped working after i dropped the mechanical part. When I checked it, I didn't see any chip marks or anything, but still it won't work. Can anyone help me? I'll post up pictures if u need me too, and I'll show how it broke.

    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.

  • Creative Zen Nano Plus audio line-in recor

    Im planning to buy Creative Zen Nano Plus GB.
    . Does Creative Zen Nano Plus audio line-in recoreder offer excellent quality of sound music when you record a certain music through a CD player's line-in?
    2. Please rate the quality of recorded sound music from to 0.
    3. Does the recorded sound quality the same as when you just download the music file through your PC's USB connection?
    thanks.

    Is there something I need to set in the player to allow it to play out of it's line-in function?
    You connected the ZNP's headphone out to your car|shelf|portable stereo's line-in, right? The line-in on the ZNP itself is only used to record external audio sources onto the player. The stereos may need to be set to play back from their line-inputs if they don't detect the signal and switch automatically, but that should be explained in the corresponding manuals.

  • Creative Zen Nano and Musicma

    I won some downloads. They are from Musicmatch. I have winodws 98SE. I downloaded the free jukebox. I downloaded a few songs with no problem. I just received a Creative Zen Nano. I installed the software for it. I transferred those songs to the player with no problem. When I tried downloading more songs on Musicmatch it showed that the download was complete, but then it gave me a software error message. It showed that I purchased the downloads, but they did not show up in my playlist. I don't know what the problem is. Do you think it is conflicting with the creative software? Should I uninstall part of it's I had no problem downloading before I installed the Creative software. I hope someone can help. Thanks.

    <FONT face=Garamond color=#3333cc size=3>If you have MMJB V. 0, it is known for having many bugs. There are many posts on various forums about the numerous problems. I used to really love the product but since yahoo purchased it, it turned to crap. Sorry I can't offer more advice for your particular problem but just wanted you to be aware of the many bugs and problems.

    I went ahead and updated it anyway. One little thing I noticed was now the volume only goes up to 25 like my Zen Touch instead of 40 or whatever that it did before. Same loudness, different numbers only. Other than that, I have not noticed anything different, but it seemed to work OK scrolling through a song with the old firmware. I did not, obviously, do a detailed comparison.

  • Faulty Creative Zen Nano Plus Battery Co

    Hello. I am new in this forum.
    I bought a Creative Zen Nano Plus MP3 Player from the IT show in March this year and 3 months later, the tip of the Battery Cover CRACKS and now the Battery Cover cannot be fixed back to the MP3 Player.
    Anyone here has SIMILAR EXPERIENCE with me?
    I went down to CREATIVE INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS PARK to buy the Battery Cover but was told it was OUT OF STOCK and I need to wait. Does the CREATIVE MARINA SQUARE has a Customer Care Centre where I can purchase the Battery Cover? Hear from anyone in the forum again. Thanks

    Yes, this is quite a common occurence on the Nano, Nano Plus and N200 as the catch is very flimsy. The one on the V200 seems sturdier.
    An email to Support in your region should do the trick - in Europe they sent me one straight back in the post.

  • Creative Zen Nano help ple

    Hi i'm new here and i'm very sorry if you have seen these post already.
    I have a Creative Zen Nano GB for almost a year now. 3 days ago i noticed it started to turn off by itself. I did everything from changing the batteries, to deleting all the songs on it, and updating the Firmware. When i updated the Firmwire it worked fine for about hour then it shut off by itself, i went to turn it back on and no luck. It still wont turn on, but it hooks up to the computer fine. Can anyone please help me with whats wrong? I'm leaving for Florida in the next day, and we are driving and i need my mp3. Please help. Please and Thanks

    Are you using WMA files? Many of the problems people seem to have with the Nano Plus are when using wma files. I rarely use wma files on my n200.

  • Is creative zen nano plus scratch-resistant coati

    ?Is creative zen nano plus (color black)?has a?scratch-resistant coating on it like the creative zen v?

    I assume that it is/was brand new in an unopened package. If that is the case-take it back. For that matter return it anyway. The Nano Plus doe snot work this way. The 'scroll wheel' is both rotate and press-in. The instruction are pretty good at explaining it. Not having a working display is not good at all.
