Help schedule the next Micro firmware

Hi folks, recently there was a petition for firmware release email notification...
I would re-phrase that need. ;-)
What we really need (listen up Creative ), is for us to be able to schedule the release of the next firmware...
E.g., I'll be on summer holidays starting July 7, so as a first guideline for Creative, please release the next v Micro firmware before July 7. It would be great to leave on holiday with some new features on my Micro. Oh, and as a corollary, please make it a bug-free version, because I will be unable to downgrade until 3 weeks later.
Now, I don't have any special requests regarding the v2 release dates, but maybe other folks have.
SSR, please don't tell me to read the FAQ re: firmware release schedules

Riiight. Closing this as it's obviously a joke petition.

What improvements are being made in the next SA500 firmware release?

I have noticed that there is a release candidate firmware release available for the SA500 series. What improvements are being made in the next SA500 firmware release?

The improvements are around VPN and NAT.
The best way to get more details is to look at the release notes which come with the RC1 trial.
You can send me a private message and I can forward you the release notes if you preferred.

HT4972 when does the next iphone firmware come out

i would like to know when the next iphone firmware comes out can u send a reply to my email address

Historically iOS release time is always 10am (Pacific Time Zone)- San Francisco and Nevada. So India get ready for iOS 6 at 9.30pm today on 19th September. Sorry it will be 10.30 pm today.

Getting about $3000 a day in iTunes charges I didn't make can't get history to pull up and can't reach a apple person, scheduled the next available call but it's the 2nd of next year and about 20,000 more dollars from, now went to the iTunes Store no help

My iTunes account is hooked to my debit card and I have thousands of dollars per day coming out of my bank account. I emailed apple several times to get a history so I can find out what the heck is going on and each time I get a generic message followed by a email with a bunch of links telling me how to access my iTunes history. I attempt to do this and I get a message stating iTunes can not be reached. So I go down to my local apple store and am told it's because I did not have wifi, they hook my phone to the apple store wifi and tell me they show no charges. Yet I'm down approximately $12,000 so far and climbing. I call my bank and cancel my debit card and attempt to contact apple again via a link they sent me to schedule a call. When I schedule the call it gives me a message that we are sorry we are unable to schedule a call for you please try again later, I try a future time and date and manage to schedule a telephone call for the second of next year. Is there anyway to access what the **** is going on with my iTunes account in the meantime? Apple doesn't seem to be able to see the charges I just see them on my bank side.
And help is appreciated.

hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

GOT THE NEW MICRO FIRMWARE TO WORK!! Worth reading for those who've had proble

So to recap, my problem with both the 2.xx firmwares was as follows:
I have USB . proprietary on my system. I also added an ALi USB2.0 PCI card for the speed boost. USB . and 2.0 both worked fine with the .xx firmware. However, as soon as I upgraded . worked fine. The Micro was recognized as an MTP device, etc. etc.
The added USB 2.0 ports were another story -- the device was recognized by WinXP SP2 as an "unrecognized device" and by Creative not at all.
Anyway, my "revelation" came when I tried to manually identify the Micro as an MTP device by electing to choose my own driver. Everytime I tried this, it would start installing and then my computer would crash and suddenly reset. This is what caused me to think that the USB 2.0 card might be causing a conflict, even though none was identified by Windows. A conflict that only apparently arises through MTP use. Don't ask me why.
Anyway, I opened my system up and just moved the USB 2.0 card to another slot. LO AND BEHOLD, as soon as the card was reidentified by the system (and assigned a different memory address due to its new physical location on the board), so was my Zen!! It now works perfectly with my 2.0 card.
Anyway, so far so good. Hope this helps someone else.

Anecdotally people have a lot of problems with the ALI chipset, so it's good you've got it to work

Another question about the Zen Micro Firmware Upgr

Hi there,
I have just successfully installed the Creative Zen Micro Firmware .02.05 on my 5GB Zen Micro but I have a question regarding Windows Media Player. The Set up Sync button and some of the properties still appeared greyed out. I thought the upgrade would solve that problem.
Any thoughts?
C.

As per the?BEFORE you post, READ THIS FIRST (FAQ) post, all downloads can be found at Nomadworld.com downloads.

What to fix on the next Nokia N95 firmware?

Hi people! I am asking you to submit your opinion what to fix on the next nokia firmware. Let's talk about bugs and other isues that Nokia need to fix!

1. Camera: - I would like to have the posibility to remeber the last scene selected. If I am in hollyday and wish to take picture of mountains, I don't want every time to lose time to change my scene from auto to landscape. Or if I setup some user defined setings, I want those settings to be available imediatley when I open my camera lens.
- I would like bether picture qualitty. I'm sure that can be improved (I saw this happening with other phones; since first fw to the last the picture quality was improved very mutch)
2. Music player: - I wold like to be able to create playlists by selecting a single folder. For example I copy a new folder with new tracks and I don't have time to choose only those tracks to a new playlist. The new tracks automated playlist is not a solution. I could have multiple folders with different tipes of traks.
3. Configurable stand by: For ex. I don't use Search function, Share online - theese two are using precious space from the display.
4. Better life time.
Thank you.

I reset firefox the next time istarted my computer I got dadamn~.exe error.

I did not do a good job of spell check sorry. I reset firefox, because it was slow and crashing. That was what was recommended in the help.
The next time I started my computer and every time after that, I get a datamn~1.exe error.
I do see a firefox folder on my desktop of restore items.
Thanks
Alma

That file is malware, delete it, its a part of the DataMgr malware.

ZEN MICRO : firmware history (in

I'm offering here an overview of the Zen Micro firmware history, as it's impossible to get a full release history from the Creative download website
Please do NOT use this thread to ask for firmware features (etc). Only to clarify what's IN the existing firmware versions, and what the relations are.
Each version contains all improvements from the version it is based on. Note that I'm only mentioning the most interesting novelties per release (IMO). Check the actual release notes on the Creative download site, for official info.
ps: I had this originally in a nice table, but then I discovered that the forum blocks html table tags :-(
Generally speaking :
v line of firmware works with all recent Windows versions, and requires you to install Micro-specific drivers on the pc before connecting the Micro. </LI>
v2 line is so-called "PlaysForSure" (download + subscription) and works only on pc with Windows XP + Windows Media Player 0. You don't need to install any other driver.</LI>

It would indeed be very short!
Also, was there any need to quote the entire first post? I can understand you're trying to emphasise a point but...
Well, I quoted the entire first post in a rage of fury, so I did not think, I guess. Sorry!
If you look at the Micro firmware in detail we mostly have two different firmware version, the MTP firmware that was promised, and some bug fixes. That's about all it amounts to.
Yeah, I know - but it is so typical... The ratio between Micro/Touch updates is like ten to one... bloody ridiculous is what it is, anyway.

Should I buy the Zen Micro or the Zen Touch Playe

I am trying to decide whether to buy the Zen Micro or the Zen Touch. They are roughly the same price. I do not think I need 20GB, but I hate to constrain myself.
On the other hand, the Zen Micro appears to offer a few extra features like FM radio, replaceable battery, voice recording and advanced song handling (DJ, for example). The Zen Touch seems to have just the most basic functions.
So what do I do, get a gigantic player with minimal functionality (less than an iPod or Nomad) or a smaller player with more functionality (I am unlikely to use voice and FM recording, and use the FM radio minimally)?
It just seems like the overall Micro firmware is more robust than the Touch firmware, but I'm not sure the tradeoff is worth it.
What are your thoughts?

I have a Zen Touch. I do not have an enormous music collection, but have maybe 50 or 60 albums on the player. This is something like 6 or 7 GB. It is WAY too much for me (even this much music). I do not need even that many songs on it at once. With support via WMP0 to synchronize, you could just synch up your favorites every time, switch them around, eventually synch up Napter 2 Go stuff and still have a ton on a 5 GB player. Features on the Micro that sound flashy but I would NEVER use are the calendar, contact thing. I have this on my phone, too, and don't use it. I have a PDA--I DO use that. An MP3 player is a pitiful substitute for a PDA (and a PDA is a lousy MP3 player). I would use the Audible Audio support in the Micro. Touch does not have this. I am a huge Audible fan. I had seriously looked at a Rio Carbon, but now that the Micro is out, that would be the player I would buy if I had it to do over again. They do need to develope a way to charge your extra battery for the Micro. The ability to swap batteries is pretty stupid the way it is now--you can only charge it in the player. They need a charger for the spare. Just my opinion, but I think some people get carried away with hard dri've potential. I can't forsee EVER wanting to carry that much music around with me, especially when it will be so easy to change what is on the player once full support for WMP0 comes out. I am just not away from my home computer library for that length of time that I would want to carry most of it around with me. I vote for the Micro.

Hi there, i had the exact same problem and posted a thread a few above yours, and these forums wasnt much help nobody replied, so i did a bit of research and followed all the intructions on this site: http://www.gearsoftware.com/cfknowledgebase/articledisplay.cfm?articleid=296
If you follow the steps very carefully and do as each says, this will solve your problem.. Now i am very happy i can actually install iTunes and use it for my iPod.
Remember to be carefully with the steps as the things you will be deleting are very important to your comp.
Hope this helps.

Full revision list of the Zen Micro's firmware?

/ I've been digging up various firmwares, and I'll be honest and say that because I use an AC Adaptor that 2.2.02 and ..0 are not in my best interests. While I have no tested whether .02.05 retains charge over time I will probably do so tomorrow. I'd like to know the full history of the device so I know where to stand on this. I like to have the 4 hour standby, but not the 'shorter' charge span simply because all Creative did was drop the peak voltage from 4.9V (Li-Po can take up to 4.235V) to 4.2V. Granted the slope of the charging curve gets very flat at that level, but I do feel that it is best to inform geeks so they know what to expect.
Version (Recovery Mode version)
..0 (0.0.65)
2.2.02 (0.0.65)
.0.02 (0.0.63) (Pulled off due to complaints)
.02.05 (0.0.58)
2.00.2 (Cannot be installed)
I know I missed a few, but because the Zen Micro is past its life cycle I doubt there will be any customizations to the device.

what problems?
Spending time on a support forum like this, that covers the full gamut of the customer base, you are going to see probably 80% of the posts from folks having problems ranging from minor pilot error to real hardware failure. The 20% with tips, kudos etc are all in the minority and will not be very visible.
Creative has probably sold over 5 million Micro's since inception. There are definitely going to be problems with that many units in the general population. And some of the problems have been real issues such as the battery drain and the issue of headphone jacks. The latest firmware v . has fixed the battery problem, and on the 3 Micros in our household we are all seeing over hours playback time, excellent battery hold time, good charging characteristics etc etc. The headphone jack issue seems to have become a lot less of a topic the past month or so. Noting that Creative sold probably about .5 million of the earliest Micros, and these were the units that seemed to have headphone jacks go bad, if at all, all the later products may have enough of a redesign that the jacks are OK. Certainly we are fine over here with the new revisions.
The pluses of the Micro are many, and the diminuti've size and excellent UI makes using this player a pleasure. Audio quality is excellent, and other than sheer output power is right up there with the JB3 (IMO the best ever mp3 player - irregardless of brand).
Hope this rambling note can help you with your decision.

Will apple next update to help fix the location following data problems will the ipod touch 2g be included ?

will apple next update to help fix the location following data problems will the ipod touch 2g be included ?

Chances are the 2g itouch will not be included in the update. Also no one yet knows if it will be fixed in the next firmware but apple has said they know of this bug.

When is the next firmware released after v21.0.016...

When is the next FW upgrade after V21.0.016 which hav known bugs reported . I hope nokia to rectify it in next FW near soon.....My N95-1 getting slower & slower in response...when boot up it takes 15 minutes, some phone pre-installed function like Nokia Search, Dictionary, WLAN (wifi) already hided inside the phone (cannot see their icons), when receiving calls , i cannot see the loudspeaker function to be on...Video centre cannot be added anymore new services...& many more ...i only used up 3GB data for my Sandisk 4GB card...my phone still hav 58MB space left...i cannot imagine what will happen if more problems coming...

Your problem is elsewhere, not with the firmware.
How many themes and third-party applications have you installed? Did you install them into the phone's memory or the memory card? If your phone takes 15 minutes to start up there's a serious overload somewhere.
Regardless of that, nobody knows when new firmware is due out. It just appears. The thing to do is to check on http://europe.nokia.com/A4577225 periodically.
