I just posted a thread about this same thing... I'm not so excited... the touch pad is semi- competiti've with the apple click wheel... but that whole scroll wheel on the side thing merely contributes to the clean look of the player... but overall, I think it'll be less intuiti've to use, not altogether horrible to use... but I imagine myself liking the touch better... And stickers? what am I, fi've years old? I like the colored backlights thing... even though an oled display would have been even better, but why don't they just concentrate on making the thing in stylish colors, not like the cheesy faceplate colors of the micro but in sexy metallic colors, given the thing is all shiny already, and give apple a run for their money.

Creative Zen Neeon 6GB filesystem error on Li

Hi there,
First off, I have had no problem with the Zen Neeon in the past on Linux, has worked perfectly. However, now the mp3 player says it has a Filesystem error and shuts down. Is there anyway to format or fix this problem for Linux? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Jeriko

Well, good news. There is a simple way to fix my above problem if you're running Linux. Thought I better post it here incase someone has the same trouble. Simply open up your terminal and create a windows filesystem on the mp3 player device. For example, my mp3 player was dedicated to /dev/sda, you'd do this:
mkdosfs /dev/sda
And that should do it. Check the man page (man mkdosfs) for more info.
Cheers,
Jeriko

Creative Zen Neeon "File System Err

Hi just bought a Zen Neeon a couple weeks ago. Yesterday I was charging my player on the computer and when I was done charging it I tried to transfer songs but it kept saying "Dri've needs to be formatted". I didn't format the dri've because I think it'll erase my songs. Now when I try to turn my player on it says, "File system error". What does that mean? Should I reset it's If so, will it erase my songs?

What's recover mode? I've done this...
Detach your player from your PC , and ensure that it is turned off.
Close all acti've applications (for example, Internet Explorer, Windows Explorer, or Windows Media Player etc), as well as background applications such as Norton anti-virus applications.
Download the latest device driver if you have not installed any drivers for your player.
Double click on the file MStorage_PCDRV_LB__07_00_250 to install it. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Hold down the Play/Pause button while connecting the player to a PC's USB port.
When the Creativelogo appears on its screen, release the Play/Pause button. The player is now in Player Recovery Mode.

Does anyone know when this product is due to be released in the UK?
Thanks

Only Creative know for sure (check with them).
Personally I doubt it though. This player has been out for a while now in other regions.

Aoshi, thanks for the new info! I don't think this article has been posted yet.
I haven't decided how I feel about this device yet. Nothing that makes me jump outta my seat. Seems like it's targeting a crowd about 0 years younger than me...at least.

Creative Zen Neeon 6gb Reset But

Does pressing the reset button delete all your songs? And is it the little hole below the hold switch?PS: Anyone solved the freezing of the screen issue yet? Or the speed problem (takes ages to change between songs)?Cheers

Zen Neeon 'Frozen' at Creative Logo when inserted into U

add me to the list of people who's Neeon freezes at the creative logo when connected to a USB port.
I've tried to boot into the recovery mode, and the device appears as a 'player recovery device' however when the firmware update tries to update, the 'player recovery device' disappears, and windows tells me a USB device has malfunctioned and that i should re-insert it. which then makes the firmware update fail, as it loses the connection to the player.
My Neeon is now a couple weeks expired from the 2 month warranty. as i bought it last year for my Xmas present. which means i'm pretty much stuck with a paperweight now as the knowledge base doesn't help me one bit and e-mail support wasn't exactly helpful either, as i only ever got replies that needed the player to connect to the PC. when it's not even getting to the stage where it will talk to the PC properly.
i've always supported creative players, as they're about the same price as the consumer-tastic ipods, but offer many more features, and then this happens as soon as the warranty expires, which is really just like a kick in the face.
if there's any way to workaround this that anyone knows of, i would love to hear from you, because i'd rather not have to spend any money to buy another player. (and chances are, it won't be a creative one)

Zen neeon prob

Hi, I've been using Creative Zen Neeon GB for about ,5 month, but I've been experiencing a problem since i bought it. My mp3 player doesn't work correctly. It's often (getting more often these days) turning off just after "Please wait" warning while I turn it on. After formatting HD, it starts working properly but for a while, then i have to reformat to listen. This makes me feel awful if i experience it away from computer. Not only formatting and recopying takes too much time, even it doesn't solve my problem permanently. I can't trust my mp3 on listening everytime i feel down...
What can I do to deal with this problem?
Thanks

Will-o-Wisp,
Have you tried contacting Customer Support yet, to see if they can assist you?

Zen Neeon freezing iss

I recieved a Creative Zen Neeon 6GB last friday, and it was working perfectly until yesterday.
Now, when I tried to turn it on yesterday, it simply went to the CREATIVE logo screen, and then got stuck there. I tried resetting it, but it continues, every time. I left it alone for a while, and now it shows a low battery logo when I try to turn it on. So, I tried to plug it in to my computer today to charge it, and it got stuck on the CREATIVE screen then too. I've tried everything available in the pinned message on this board, but I can't seem to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.

If you can't get into rescue mode then the player sounds faulty.
There no point in contacting support three times, it just wastes resources as they'll have to close the duplicate requests or may even answer them unwittingly.
You need to wait for the autoresponse email from support, then reply to that, and allow some days for a response. Particularly over the Christmas period.

Zen Neeon Recharge on LCD screen even though not connected er

I purchased a Creative Zen Neeon 6 gig MP3 player last December 2005. I'm not having trouble where I can connect the MP3 Player to the computer, it will recognise the device and all the songs stored...what happen is when i safely remove it from the USB cable the Neeon will turn on, show the creative logo and then show the USB charging action on there even though it's not connected....Has anyone else experienced this problem? I've tried re-setting it but again the USB recharge action on the LCD appears again...Anyone fixed this? Any help appreciated, thought i'd try here first before contacting tech support again...

I tried clean up already, as stated above. Since then I have also tried reformatting the player again, adding new music, and retrying the clean up. The player seems to recognize that there is music on there when it builds the library, because the more music I have uploaded the longer it takes, but when it fully boots up it still shows NO MUSIC at all, no tracks, no artists, nothing.

Zen Neeon play for sure suppo

Hi All

Creative haven?t release firmware update so it can support play for sure for the creative Zen Neeon 6gb. Does anyone know if creative are looking to release a firmware update soon so it can support play for sure?

Many Thanks

Pratt

I too would like to see Playsforsure compatibility with this player. I've been scouring the net and it seems that this player once was Playsforsure compatible as I can see it has the Playsforsure logo on the back of the box. It's also still mentioned in the manual. Whats changed since then?
This player meets all the requirements that Microsoft need for it to be compatible. Come on creative release a firmware update!

I have a 6GB Creative Zen NEEON. Every time I turn it on, on the screen it shows "Creative". When it shows Creative, it stays at that and doesnt move on to the menu as if it is frozen.

Zen Neeon - Song ***

I just got my first creative zen Neeon mp3 player :smileyvery-happy: and have been transferring songs ripped from my CD collection. I had renamed each song title as some CDs do not reflect the song title (i.e Track , track 2....) Even though when i browse the songs in the folders, the titles are reflected. The songs reflect their default title - Track 7 or track 9 when I am playing the song.
How can i solve this problem? becoz i have no idea what song i am listening to.

hey there.. i just got my zen neeon and it proved to be a little frustrating..
i created folders and named it in small letters using my computers but some of them displayed in CAPITAL letters.
to make things worst, some of my mp3 filenames have chinese characters and weird square characters.
it also hung on me twice in less than a week since i bought it.
anyone got a solution or similar problems?
