Creative Zen Xtra - Issues with file transfers

Hi, I've had my Zen Xtra for about 4 or 5 months now. It's been fine up until recently. When I start Nomad Explorer, it would only allow me to transfer maybe 3 or 4 albums before producing an error message along the lines of "This operation cannot continue due to an unknown error". Gradually, the number of albums would decrease until, last night it wouldn't even let me transfer a single file.
So I restarted my computer which normally helps, but when I plugged in the player this time nothing happened. The screen on the player lit up but instead of displaying the little icon that shows it's plugged in, nothing happened. In Nomad Explorer it merely shows "Not Connected" and in Media Source it doesn't even show up.
I deleted and reinstalled all of the drivers, software and that hasn't helped. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Thanks for any help, Matt.

Have you tried a disk cleanup? See the FAQ Part post.
These file transfer issues are indicati've of USB problems, but there's a link in the FAQ Part post with lots of information about troubleshooting connection problems.

Creative Zen 32Gb issue with loading downloaded wma fi

Hi
can anyone help me?
I have the Zen 32Gb and love it. I hav transferred all my cds and digitised vinyl onto it and have never feltso in touch with my music collection!
But I'm having a problem when I try to transfer wma files I've downloaded from sites like Tesco.com. When I try to put them on the Zen using the Zen Media Explorer it comes up with "unknown error". If I try to drag and drop or copy files using the browse media interface I get a message telling me I need to install a security update. I'm running Windows Media Player 0 and it's telling me there are no updates to install.
Any ideas?
thanks for any help!

The files might be DRM protected. To check just right click on the file and select Properties. It will tell you if they are protected or not. If so you won't be able to import them.

Creative Zen Xtra stopped loading music with 5.7g space left? H

Ive been using my 30g Creative zen xtra for close to two years loading ripped cds using mediasource. I have .20.8 firmware and have had no problem.Last night with zen showing 5.7 gis of space left I tried to load a few ripped cds as usual using mediasource and usb. The action went the same as usual with mediasorce telling me songs were being tranfered but when completed they were not in player. I tried it a few tims with different usb ports and cords but still songs not in player. The only thing Ive done different is last week I used player interface to delete one cd and it went fine.
My biggest fear is having to reload close to ten thousand songs back into my Zen Xtra if i loose them trying to get transferring to work again. If I use the scandisc feature would that cause my library to need to be reloaded?Perhaps i should just leave well enough alone and just use the zen as a player of all my music and not try to fix it. I know there is 5.7 gigs of space left,I have been encoding my songs at 96 bites so space should not be an issue.Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks [email protected]

Would clean up from recovery mode help solve this problem without loosing my music content?
Hard to say whether it will help but you can try. Cleanup shouldn't delete any of the content unless the player has gone completely haywire.

Creative Zen Radio Issue

Creative Zen Radio Issue?Hey,
I've had this creative zen player for some time now whilst im overall happy with my product, sadly there is all of a sudden a issue with it.
When i listen to the radio then lock it to just enjoy it - if i then unlock it, some times the screen locks up and stays black.
Whilst a reset solves this it doesn't stop it happening again.
But (this is a big but)...
The volume which i have on safely low - goes to compelte maximum with sound safety option off. It almost defeaned me when it occured and had ringing in my ears. I have booked an appointment with doctors as the ringing yes not really gone since.
Additionally im pretty sure my headphones are screwed as they were totally distorted when this occured which has probably ruined the quality of the speakers which were only a few months old.
So is this well known ? Cos im surprised no one has sued for loss of hearing if others have had this issue. I've yet to have my medical results on it - but would mostly prefer to have my mp3 fixed or replaced cos i cannot risk using it and having it do it again and make my hearing become damaged.
Thanks for reading.

Does the radio stop working right after lock? I locked the player right after choosing a radio station and the player continues to play. You might want to contact our Customer Support to see if they can help you further.

Creative Zen Xtra USB Driv

I need USB drivers for this player. Can somebody help me?

He is probably having the same problem I am.
All the drivers for the are installed before the player is connected. The Zen Xtra is connected afterwards.
The player connects with Windows XP, is recognized as the Creative Zen Xtra, but when after telling the system to install the drivers, it wants to connect with Windows Update to continue. After the attempt, it says that the drivers for the device were not found.
Looking in the Device Manager reveals that the Zen Xtra has a Code error - The Device is not Configured Properly. All the driver details are Not Available/Unknown.
I have attempted to install this player on 2 different systems with the same result. The Zen Xtra plays and otherwise functions normally. My Firmware Version is 2.0.03. One computer is an AMD64 with Windows XP SP2, the other is an AMD Sempron with Windows XP SPa.
I hope this hel

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.

Creative Zen Xtra 30gb

Hi,
I'm wondering if any techie guys can help me out here. I bought a 30gb Creative Zen Xtra about 4 years ago. I used to regualy syncronize it with my pc at home. Then one day my hard disk on my PC decided to give up the ghost and died. I carried on using my mp3 player as it was for a while without actually resetting the connection up with my PC. Then one day went about sorting it out but whilst i was in the process, which I would start and often come back to whilst trying to get all the correct drivers etc, it was plugged in via USB and must have fallen off my computer desk and unfortunatly ripped the USB connection component from the mp3 players board. As it was quite an old player anyway I thought i'd have a go at repairing it myself, rather than spend money on what is esentially a bulky 4 year old mp3 player, but I have since given up trying to repair it. Although now I would like to try and transfer the mp3's, which are on the fujitsu 2 /2 inch IDE, dri've to my PC. I have tried using an IDE to USB converter to try and connect it as an additional dri've on my PC which it detects but won't bring it up as an additional dri've (i assume because it's not NTFS or FAT32 formatted). I have also tried using Linux based Fedora to try and mount the dri've, also without any luck (although i'm not overly familiar with using fedora). Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get the information off my dri've, as I would like to buy a new Creative mp3 player and just transfer all these mp3's from my computer rather than have to re-record the hundreds of cd's I had uploaded over time to my Zen Xtra. Also if I have posted this in the wrong section please let me know and I will move the post. Cheers, Gary.Message Edited by hirsty on 09-27-200704:42 PM

I don't know but I certainly hope so!!! It really sucks that my Zen Xtra was bought 2 months too soon and doesn't work with Napster to go!!! I am reallllly hoping that Creative and Napster will work together so that all the creative models will work with Napster to Go!

Problems with File Transfers Over Firewire 800

Problems with File Transfers Over Firewire 800.
Over the past month, I have had problems when transfering files from my harddrive, over Firewire 800 to a portable drive. I usually transfer very large files (20gb or more) to the portable drives for moving files around. When I drag a file over to copy onto a drive, the transfer starts normally. If I drag more files to copy over, the computer screen goes darker and a large icon comes up that looks like a power button icon. It tells me to restart, so I have to do a hard shut down on my G5. Weird. I also get the dark screen of death sometimes when I am transfering those large files and open another application to do some work while it's copying. It's killing me. I am having to sit here and wait for the transfer to finish before I can do anything.
Any thoughts...

Have you run the Apple Hardware Test? Sounds like it could be a RAM problem.

Issue with File Download(messageDownload) on Search Page.

Hi,
I created a custom OAF search page which fetches values from one table. The document in getting stored in my custom table in a BLOB colums and NOT in FND_LOBS.
The table has 3 collumns along with others:
1st is primary key (Record_Seq) ==> number data type
2nd to store actual file name (File1Name) ==> varcahar2 data type
3rd to store the actual uploaded data (File1Data) ==> BLOB data type
The reason for having the “File1Name” is so that I can display the original file name of the document that was uploaded, instead of just the “view” in the search page results .
On the File1Data BLOB and created a messageDownload for that under query results table with following details:
ID : File1Data
ItemStyle : messageDownload
FileMIME Type : pdf
Datatype : BLOB
View Instance : LacEmpExposureVO1
view Attribute : File1Name
File View Attribute : File1Data
When I click on the "File1Name" data hyperlink, it is opening only the first document corresponding to the first record in the search page results.
For example, If my search page returns 10 rows then when I click on the file1name on any row, It is open the first row file name only.
I have a primary key column(RECORD_SEQ) in the Table / EO / VO which is displayed in the search page results.
Also one weird thing is happening:
If I try to do this more than 2 times then it is opening the update page with the first record from the search page results…
I tried to print the context and it is nul the first time, But the second time then context is changing to "update". Dont know how this is happening????
Any advice is greatly appreciated as it is very crucial for me to get this resolved ASAP. I have looked at several forums and did a lot of things as advised in the forums . But nothing seems to work for me.
Thanks,
Mir

Creative ZEN MX problems with charging battery

/Creative ZEN MX problems with charging batteryHi!
I've bought Creative Zen MX player a couple months ago. First thing I noticed when I plug in it into my computer was that battery after 3 hours was not full, what is more computer disconnected with it couple times;/
After weeks or two when I tried to charge it i Went where I bought it and they said after some examination that it really didn't work
They've sent it to the service. I had t wait for the return two months!!! and at the end they said that that tiny usb wire was damaged not mp3.
OK . The battery was fully charged maybe on 5 attempts ;/
There is no problem in my computer because I tried it on several other and it did not work ;/ ?Please, help me
Where is the problem?
?Why this player simply disconnect with my PC?

I was given this as a gift. I charged it for 8hrs when i got it and it showed fully charged. I have been trying to give it a full charge over the last 2 days once on a power adapter plugged into the wall the other through the USB port on my laptop .each for about 8hrs each. Using different cables. I remove the player and it shows full battery (never gives the plug icon though)and within 30 minutes of play music, I get the low battery warning. it was purchased on 0/6/200. nAlso it will not power on while charging.My original ZEN was able to play music when charging this one says DOCKED and will not repond to the power button being presses.

Issue with file to file in PI 7.3 (Splitting huge files)

Hi All,
Need your help in fixing the issue with file splitting
We are doing some sample scenarios(file to file) on PI 7.3 server.
We are trying to split a 10MB file by using the 'Advanced Mode' option in the sender file adapter. We gave max split file size as 2MB. The file got split into 5 chunks and was successfully sent to receiver file adapter. In receiver adapter we are able to see that. But in the target folder only 1 file was seen with size 2MB. All other chunks were missing. We need to have the whole data sent from source to target.
How to fix this issue? please provide your inputs.
Thanks and Regards,
Lakshmi Narayana

PI 7.3 has capable of processing larger size files.
Questions:
Have you picked EOIO quality of service? Hope you dont do mapping or content conversion for this file?

Can new Creative Zen play WMA with D

Can new Creative Zen play WMA with DRM? (Digital rights management) Because half of my library is purchased from MSN Music and if Creative Zen can't play that, I have to look for something else.

I'm not that unsure. And of course I beli've that you and the mods have right and it would be very strange if it did not play DRM. But I think Creative could have writen that it play WMA with DRM in the product specification. Now that I know that it can play my songs I'm gonna buy the Zen very soon:smileyvery-happy: thanks for all your help!Message Edited by Norwegian25 on 09-27-200709:46 PM
