Great Creative sale on Refurbished Zen V Plus til 8

Creative is having a sale on the refurbished Zen V plus 2 GB for $29.99(US Dollars)plus shipping until the 4th of August. Click on Store/Savings Center at the top of the page. Do not click on the Back-to School Sale link. They still have the white/green players available, at least today they were, only through the Savings Center. The white silicone cover sells at the Savings Center for $3.99 US.
I bought three Zen V Plus 2 GB for gifts and spares earlier this week. All work perfectly and none were even used. All were brand new. Only one came in a smaller size box and it actually had the european firmware(.32.0e) on it with the locked volume. I was able to replace the firmware with the US version after a few tries.

Macqueline,
As I li've in Tucson,AZ., which is over a hundred miles from Phoenix, I don't see how it would save you any money. The gas alone would be over $45.00 US dollars.
You can only order the refurbished players from Creative in Oklahoma, as far as I know. Shipping for the refurbished player is around $5-7 dollars from Oklahoma to anywhere in the states. That won't work to anyones advantage for trying to pick up a cheap player while here on a vacation. Also, the sale is over on the 4th and their free shipping was only for the first day.
Wait for a sale in England. It would be to your advantage or just buy one now and enjoy it. The shipping isn't that expensi've.
I hope you enjoy your trip to the Southwest when you come to the US. It is beautiful here in Tucson. Phoenix is not quite as nice. Too big and too hot! Am so glad I don't li've there.

  • Refurbished zen v plus prob

    hi, just bought a refurbished zen v plus 4 gig..... and after charing, turned it on. It went straight to 'fm player' and now wont do anything.. including turn off.
    help..... please

    You can try resetting it. There should be a tiny hole which you can use to reset the unit.
    If that fails and if the refurbished unit comes with a limited warranty and you are within that period, you can have them fix or replace the unit for you.

  • Deception with VIDEOS in Zen V Plus (Deceiv

    En espa?ol:
    Creative pretende que el ZEN V Plus sea el competidor directo del IPod Nano de Apple, y para mi humilde opini?n casi lo ha conseguido, supera en todo al Nano, pero falla en una cosa, LOS VIDEOS, la compresi?n y conversi?n es muy mala, el programa facilitado dobla el peso de los archivos, y solo soporta DIB de Microsoft. Este detalle le resta muchos puntos, y lo deja por debajo de su mayor competidor el NANO o cualquier otro MP4 mas barato de cualquier otra marca.
    Consejo, mejoren este aspecto en alguna actualizaci?n futura, hagan que sea capaz de reproducir formatos MP4, Xvid, Wav, u otro archivo AVI mas com?n. Tambi?n podr?a ser bueno alg?n formato de M?vil (Mobile). O por lo menos una actualizaci?n del ?Creative vides Converter? que permita seleccionar la calidad, el tama?o, peso,? de los archivos a transformar.
    Un usuario desilusionado y algo descontento por este detalle de GRAN IMPORTANCIA EN UN MP4, ya que para escuchar solamente m?sica me hubiera comprado un MP3, que espera que solucionen este problema lo antes posible.
    Posdata: Digan en las caracter?sticas del producto que el formato que reproduce es el DIB, y no el AVI, o por lo menos especif?quelo, porque si lo hubiera sabido no me lo hubiera comprado. Me siento algo enga?ado y estafado.
    Saludos.
    In English:
    Creative tries that ZEN V Plus is the direct competitor of the IPod Nano de Apple, and for my humble opinion almost has obtained it, surpasses in everything to the Nano, but it fails in a thing, THE VIDEOS, the compression and conversion is very bad, the facilitated program doubles the weight of the archi'ves, and single it supports DIB de Microsoft. This detail reduces many points to him, and it leaves below its greater competitor the NANO or any other cheap MP4 it but of of any other mark.
    Advice, improves this aspect in some future update, causes that he is able to reproduce formats MP4, Xvid, Wav, or another file AVI commonest. Also some format of Moving body could be good (Mobile). Or at least an update of the ?Creative Converter grapevines? that allow to select the quality, the size, weight,? of the archi'ves to transform.
    A disappointed user and something displeased by this detail of GREAT IMPORTANCE IN a MP4, since to only listen to music a MP3 had bought me, that hope that they solve this problem as rapidly as possible.
    Subscript: Say in the characteristics of the product that the format that reproduces is DIB, and not the AVI, or at least it specifies it, because if had known to it to not me it had bought it. I feel something decei'ved and swindled.
    My English is not very good, for that reason there am traducio with Google. Excuse to the failures and misspelling.
    Greetings

    Bueno, pues he estado probando varios formatos... Y al final el reproductor ha hecho lo que le ha salido de los webos. Te cuento
    Prob? con un video de 200mb, algunos formatos consegu?an reducirlo hasta 90mb y se pod?a ver bien en el pc, con otros pesaba m?s. Pero siempre, al ir a meterlo en el reproductor, el convertidor hac?a lo que le sal?a de los cojones, con algunos formatos me pasaba de 200 a 300mb de peso, y algunas veces incluso de 90mb a 500!! 300mb m?s que el archivo original y 5 veces m?s que el archivo en otro formato! Sin embargo, con algunos archivos s? que consegu?a que me pesasen 0mb mas o menos pasando primero a formato Zen Vision.
    Qu? he hecho: de momento he ido a la tienda y me han devuelto el dinero. Estoy esperando a que traigan los Zen V Plus de 4gb (200e) porque en esos caben mas v?deos, porque si te vas a un mp4 de 300e no bajan.

  • Zen Nano Plus 1GB Accessor

    Hi there!
    I am considering purchasing the zen nano plus flash player. I've read the product's review at http://www.cnet.com.au/mp3players/mp...0063743,00.htm
    However in the review it's mentioned that this flash player comes with a belt clip, a case as well as an armband included in the package!
    Could any of you who have purchased the player please tell me if that's true, as there is no mention of that in the product description from Creative.
    Thanks,

    The Zen Nano Plus might come with a case/armband in the US, but in the UK it only comes with a neckband :angry:
    So after months of searching, I've finally found a silicon/rubber case with armband on ebay! Looks like a genuine US one (has the Creative logo on it) which is $9.99 (but they wont ship outside the US). BTW DONT buy the one for the MuVo TX listed in the UK Creative shop as it wont fit :angry:

  • 'Creative Zen V Plus' Recovery, from Creative Labs that

    Hi,
    I love my Creative mp3 player, but I haven't seen it for ages. The crappy joystick needed repairing (the only badly designed bit).
    I took it in to JB Hi-Fi for them to send off and they told me it would take 6-8 weeks (this was December 27).
    Anyway, to cut a long story short, 3 weeks have passed and I still don't have it.
    I've rung JB Hi-Fi constantly and the Storeperson tried to help me out, gave me the Creative Labs number and I phoned them.
    So I rang them and a (presumabley) Asian guy answers. I am not racist but **bleep**, he was hard to understand (phones should have inbuilt subtitles). He tried to help me out and to the best of my knowledge he said they were processing my product and it would take another 2 to 4 weeks to get my mp3 player back to me (on top of the 3 weeks!)
    Now you can propably see why I'm royally peeved.
    What I want to know is why Creative Labs have such crap service No joke, it sounded to me like they off-sourced people's queries to other countries and in the rinkiest dinkiest places possible (the audio quality was disqusting).
    Enough ranting from me.
    Anyone have a similar experience or know what I can do about it's (I'm definitely going to write a letter of complaint).
    Thanks all

    First, I got a? RMA number by e-mail and sent in my Zen V Plus 4GB?(refurbished) directly to Creative by UPS on a Thursday (3/28/08)?and they received it by the following Monday 3/3/08. It was back to me yesterday 4/07/08. Very fast service, only it wasn't fixed and it still locks up my computer and my player?when I download my audiobooks. Only way to get it running again is to reset, go to recovery mode?and then do a full format. Then, the next time I try to reload the books, it locks up again at GB. Now, I am trying to get Creative to pay for shipping both ways, because they didn't fix the player the first time.
    It probably would have much faster for you to have?delt with Creative directly instead of using the JB Hi Fi shop. At least yours is just a problem with the?joy stick and not the electronic parts.
    Good luck.

    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

    I have experinced, some problem during applying newest firmware. I haVe downloaded all new updates. Then I started Creative ZEN V Plus Firmware .0.03__ and ther was a problem.. On my player`s screen was displayed updating firmware. And there was displaying for a couple hour. But. At the end of applying of firmware. The message was updatinf firmware failure. Then I repeated for several times. And Againg was the same message.
    Then I detached player from my PC. And from that time my player is not responding..
    I tried to do this again. But my player is not functioning welll. When I tur it On the display is showing just Creative logo, and then it is (self) turned off.
    Now player cant be recognised by computer. But when I connect my Zen V Plus, it is recognised as STMP3600 device , and is trying to install new driver.
    Can you Help me.
    I bought my Creative Zen V Plus in miami I September this year. I`m Living in Serbia. Europe.
    Sincerely yours,
    Dejan Djordjevic
    P.S. I`v tried to reset player, and to reset frimware according to your instruction in your Knowledge database. But can`t help me.

    Yes I've got a TEAC MP-244 and I wanted to upgrade the firmware.
    Tghe tool that was sent me by a TEAC support member worked; but it made my player to be a "STMP3600" and Windows XP wanted to have a driver.
    I looked into the folder but the files there were corrupt.
    The I downloaded the older firmware from the TEAC support website and - god thanks - the files in this packed folder worked. That means that the STMP3600 was recognized and a new device - in German: Player-Wiederherstellungskonsole (Englisgh sthg. like that: Device to recover the player?) - was created. Then I could upgrade the firmware successfully.
    Maybe that's a help for you all guys.

  • 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

  • Creative Zen V Plus Backli

    Sup all!?I really hope it'ss not defecti've but for the past week it seems to be losing its display power (most likely called the Backlight). It's almost to the point to where I can't even see the display. The Backlight seems to be burning out (If possible). I reset it 4 times and it'ss still real dim.
    ?I checked the contrast and it'ss at 00%. I even tried moving it up and down but as soon as I take it down from 00% I can't see it at all. It says in the online V troubleshooting to go to system/Backlight and then adjust it. Well My Zen V plus has the system folder and then a folder called player settings and that?s where I find the contrast but no where does it have a backlight setting.
    I?m disappointed since I just got it for Christmas and I only use it at bedtime. The battery is still holding a good charge (So I think anyhow). I?ve charged it full a couple of time of the PC to try to get the backlight problem fixed but no go. The play/pause and the back button still seem to be lighting up just as strong as when I got it. No scratches or marks of any type on the LCD screen, like I said though it'ss been treated good. I?ve never taken it out of the house and the only time I use it is at bed time.
    Thanks for any help.

  • Creative Zen V Plus - Seeking your help with "Audio format is not supported" error

    Hi,
    I have a problem with my Creative Zen V Plus and am looking for someone to do a quick test to help me. I listen to a lot of MP3 podcasts, so I often rewind, fast forward or set bookmarks inside tracks. When I do those operations in some tracks, I get the error ?Audio format is not supported? when I ?land on certain places in a track (and I am able to reproduce the problem, which happens always at the same place in a particular track).
    Here is what I mean by ?land?. For instance, there is a particular track (see the mp3 link below) that whenever I rewind to exactly 35 min 37 seconds, I get the error ?Audio format is not supported? and playback is stopped. If I fast forward to exactly 35 min 37 seconds, I also get the error. If I set a bookmark to exactly 35 min 37 seconds and I then go to that bookmark, I also get the error. But I don?t get the error if I play the track normally without any rewinding or fast forwarding: the track is played and passes the 35 min 37 seconds mark without any error.
    Creative Labs customer support wants me to return my player for repair, but I am not sure if the problem is with my player or if the problem would also be present on other Zen V Plus, thus my asking for your help.
    I would appreciate if someone of you could try one of my problematic tracks on their player. Here is what you could do to help me:
    1- Download and transfer to your Zen V Plus player the following audio file (it'ss a technology podcast and don?t worry, it'ss virus-free, it comes from CNET):
    http://podcast-files.cnet.com/podcas...oud_090808.mp3
    2- Go to the 35 min and 37 seconds mark, press PAUSE and set a bookmark there.
    3- Go into the Bookmarks menu and go to the bookmark you just set.
    4- Do you see the error ?Audio format is not supported?, or the audio plays just fine? If the audio plays just fine, could you tell me what are the first words you hear
    when going to that bookmark, just so that I am sure we are indeed doing the same test on each of our side?
    5- What firmware version is your player at ?
    Thank you very much for any help you could bring me.
    Patrick

    never mind. figured it out!

  • Creative ZEN V PLUS 8GB

    Japan already seem to have the Creative ZEN V PLUS 8GB?when will the UK get this item? and at what cost ?

    Hello Skhell,
    Welcome to Creative forums!
    Cleaning up shouldn't hurt your player. This will just scan your player and remove corrupt/invalid links that might cause some problems on the device. Boot the player from the recovery mode and do a Clean Up->Reboot. You can find the instructions here. See if that makes a difference.

Maybe you are looking for
