Help!! Zen Micro FM Tuner not workin

Hi all, Just recently I tried to listen to the radio on my Zen and it won't recieve any stations. It doesn't pickup any signals at all. It scans but comes up with nothing. It used to work fine but hadn't used it in a while and now this!
Has anyone had a similar problem and if so was it fixable?
I reinstalled the latest firmware and that didn't help.
Cheers?

Perform the recovery mode first in your unit.Afterwhich, scan the radio frequency again but try to do it on an open area to get a good signal.
If this doesn't rectify the issue,contact our Customer Support in your region.
Hope it helps.

Creative Zen Micro "Device is not connect

When attaching MP3 player to my PC the Creative software does not start automatically and when I try to drag music files on to MP3 player get message "The device is not connected". When I try to install MP3 player get the following message "The drivers for this device are not installed (code 28). To reinstall the drivers for this device, click reinstall driver". When I click on this option (reinstall driver) get the following message "Windows was unable to locate the software for this device".
I appear to have loaded the software that enables us to transfer tracks from a CD but cannot then get these across to the MP3 player as the PC does not recognise the device. However, when I loaded the software I did get the following message during the installation process "An error occurred while setting up the driver. Setup Nomad Jukebox 2,3,Zen, Zen NX, ZenXtra, Zen Touch and Zen Micro Driver". Not sure if this is related to the MP3 player not being recognised by the PC.
Downloaded driver "JB3MV2_PCWDRV_US__30_03.EXE from Creative site but did not appear to help situation.
My PC is a Dell Dimension 400, OS Windows Millennium, Pentium 933Mhz, 256MB memory.
Would appreciate any help.
Many thanks

Many thanks to SSR who replied to my query. Followed instructions and can now transfer files to MP3. Once again many thanks for your help. Cannot guarantee I will not be back for more advice so dont go away!!!

Help with zen micro! songs not appearing in creative mediasorce organiz

ok i decided to add a few songs to my zen micro and found out when i go to the mediasource organizer it woulden't detect my music! is my mp3 player corupt? i have even tried finding my music in windows exploror but that wont even detect it shows up blank but my mp3 player plays my music just fine. why!?

i tried installing from windows/INF and no luck there... the ONLY way it was recognized was when I configured the zen as a 4gig portablestorage dri've and that popped up immediately BUT only as storage!?I've reset it.. done the 'cleanup' stuff.. still no go. My XP install is a standard install, no quicktime and no WMP . what gives?I've looked at all pertinent articles but it doesnt seem like there is one specific fix for this.

Zen Micro FM Tuner --

Just bought a Zen Micro. Was glad that Creative has maintained their impeccable audio quality in this new player but things are way different with the built-in FM tuner. The reception was horrible, no matter how I position it and how I move the earphone cables around, I just cannot get a good reception - there's always static/white noise in the background. The other FM tuners I have receives just fine. Is there going to be a fix (firmware or otherwise) for this otherwise great player?

Do you li've next to a radio tower by any chance?
I knew trhe FM tuner wouldn't be amazing but it get's the job done. Stations with good reception will generally come in clear through the Micro. It's not something that should totally surprise you, every review mentioned the fact that the Micro got moderate to poor reception.

IBM T30 XP USB error with Zen Micro. Does not recognize dev

I've tried everything I can think of on this board and others. Zen Micro, IBM T30 laptop, 2 usb ports on back, Windows XP. Downloaded latest everything I can find. USB does not recognize device. Error report shows "USB Root Hub (2 ports) ---> Unknown Device"
Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Tried one last thing, just for grins...
Put the IBM into it's docking station, which has another USB on the dock (low speed, though), and voila! It worked! Go figure what's different but since it was working, I took that opportunity to blow in the new firmware, and also upgraded to ZenMicroP4S_PCFW_LB_2__02 to get away from drivers all together (and to use Napster2go, my ultimate goal through all of this!) Syncing with MP0 worked great. Even an explorer view with folders and such, so all is well.
Since everything seems to be working, I'll stick with it for now!
Can I now delete Zen Micro Media Explorer from my system? (it doesn't seem to recognize the device anyway)
Thanks!

Zen Micro FM Tuner Quest

I am looking around for a MP3 player & I like the looks of the Zen Micro. I notice that it comes with a FM tuner. I know you can listen to radio stations, but will the FM tuner be able to broadcast the music I have stored on the Zen Micro to my car radio like the Ipod does with its external tuner? If not, is this even an option with the Micro & if it is which product will I have to buy to make this happen?

You would have to buy an FM Transmitter in order to play your Zen Micro MP3's on your car stereo in the way that you want. The FM Tuner just allows the Micro to play FM stations.

Zen Micro & I-Tunes music transfer

My DH just bought me a Zen Micro. I have already amassed quite a collection on my computer (Toshiba-Satellite Running XP) I have amassed this collection via I-Tunes. When I have tried to transfer my folders from my I-Tunes library to the Creative Library... I was told Creative doesn't recognize the format in which they are in. I-Tunes show they are MP4's and I have changed the settings on Creative to recognize all the available types of sound files. So does anyone know of a converter for this type of problem or am I just up a creek without a paddle? Thanks! - gjkecarlson

The key here, is are they from the iTunes Store or just encoded from your own CDs?
If they're from the iTunes Store then you can either burn to CDRW and rip again as MP3/WMA, or use JHymn (Google the name).
If they're from your own CDs and without protection iTunes can convert them to MP3s. This is probably the easiest option. I'm not sure if MediaSource will, but there's loads of others that can failing iTunes.

Zen Micro Media Explorer not working

Recently I purchased a new PC. winxp. My zen worked just fine on my old PC. I installed my zen and the media explorer. When I launch the Zen Micro Media Explorer everything is grayed out. I cant click on anything. Windows media explorer shows my zen, but the Zen Micro Media Explorer is just all gray. I have FW version .3. I figued I would upgrade the FW and when I try upgading, it says the zen is not plugged in. I need to edit my playlists and I cant get into the media explorer. help!

I'm having exactly the same problem with my Creative Zen Touch 40 gB - a couple of months ago I had to re-instal windows and manage to re-install MediaSource and all the Audigy and Creative Zen drivers and they all worked together nicely. I've now upgraded the motherboard and processor, re-installed windows and cannot get mediasource to see my device. I've tried intslling the plays-for-sure software suite and it says it can't see my device and to check that the firmware is updated to PFS devices, which it is. I've tried the updated drivers, updated mediasource, uninstalled the device and re-installed it and nothing works. I'm running Windows XP Professional which has been updated with all the critical updates and also runs Media PLayer .
I know this doesn't help the previous poster, but if anyone else can help, that'd be fab.

Zen Micro 'player is not connect

Could someone please help me?
I've had my zen micro for about a year now and i always had some problems with importing tracks, id have to connect and disconnect it a few times before it would work, but now nothing. I've used different cables and different computers and it still won't work. I am either told that 'player is not connected' or that there has been a malfunction with a USB device. Is there anything I can do other than gettin a new player?
Thanks Jen

If different PCs has not solved it then the player is most likely faulty. Contact support, click the Support > Contact Customer Support link on this page.

Why will it work when plugged to the charger, and not work with battery?

Try to perform the Recovery Tool of your unit.
If that doesn't help either, get in touch with our Support.
Best of luck.

Zen Micro - Unknown album not showing

I have a Zen Micro with firmware 2..02.
I'm having a problem with songs that do not have an album in the ID3 tag not visible on the Zen Micro. I select Music Library, then Artists, then the artists I'm interested in. The songs that I know I downloaded that do not have an album name (as verified by WMP0) do not show up. Under the old firmware ..0 these would show up under Unknown.
Thanks, Jubjub

I had a lot of songs that I didn't want named by the album because they were all different - and searching through a million albums each with one song is such a pain. I just tagged them all under the album name "misc" (for miscellaneous) to keep them all together. It's a bit of a workaround, I guess, but it's pretty easy to mass tag them that way.
On my Micro (with the v2 firmware) the albums not labeled don't show up under the album list, but do show up if I search under the artist list.Message Edited by OSUScooby on 09-08-2005 02:26 AM

Zen Micro 5GB – USB not connectin

My Zen Micro 5GB MP3 is freezing on the CREATIVE screen.<SPAN> I tried a Clean-Up to no avail.<SPAN> I have downloaded the new Firmware/OS and went to install it but when I initiate the program a message comes up saying it does not recognize a connection to the MP3 player through the USB port.
Up until this point (for six months), I have not had any problems with the USB port connecting.<SPAN> I tried a second USB port on the PC and got the same message.<SPAN> It seems unlikely to me that both USB ports would go out at the same time the MP3 player starts freezing up.
Without the USB port connecting to the MP3 player, the new firmware cannot be downloaded.
What do I do?

A few days ago I had exactly the same problem. It turned out to be a crashed harddisk and I sent it RMA.

Zen Micro "USB Device Not Recogniz

Hi, I can tell from the forum that this has been discussed quite extensi'vely already but I thought I would check that I have done everything possible.
Basically, I have today received my Zen Micro, installed the software and then connected it to my computer and all I get is USB device not recognized.
I have uninstalled and re-installed the software, tried a different USB cable and socket, formatted and cleaned up the player and still nothing.
There is no other computer for me to test it on. Any suggestions?

Either a new USB cable or more likely a new PCI USB2 card. Chances are the USB card is faulty, but I can't emphasise enough how testing on another PC will clear up where the fault lies. All you need is a PC to test, whether it be a friends, other family member etc.
Also don't forget to search on "communication problem" in the FAQ post, and follow the link that takes you to for lots of troubleshooting advice.

Zen Micro Media Explorer Not Detect

I just downloaded the new ZM FW the other day. I just noticed today that my Zen Micro Media Explorer doesn't detect my device. Any ideas?

No, it's not that version as such.
As mentioned you need to go to the download page (Nomadworld.com downloads). Select the Zen Micro. On the resulting list of files the one I mentioned should be listed. This is what you need to download as it has specific MTP support.
