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.
Gruss Annemarie

  • Creative Zen Micro Firmware Prob

    So I've got a Zen Micro bout a year or two back and it stopped working a whle back.
    It turns on fine but used to make a buzzing sound and?freeze. It had a small box with?'Firmware Problem' written on the screen.
    Lately, it still makes the?buzzing sound but freezes on the Creative Logo screen.
    I've tried to renew the Firmware and I tried the recovery tool thing, but neither worked.
    Is there any way to fix it's Or is it totaly gone?
    Thanks in advance.

    Did the firmware problem happen during a firmware update, or did it just happen all of a sudden, and if so how?
    to re-load the firmware, download the latest firmware on a Windows XP machine, go to control panel, tne add/remove programs, look for windows media player and if its there click on remove, you should see a window saying something along the lines of windows media player rollback.
    Next lok for something called ( or somethg like)windows media player runtime, and remove that ( it may show the roll back screen again, continue, and complete the process)
    re-start windows
    Plug in your Creative MP3 player via USB connect it to a chharger ( if it uses/can use an external charger) and let it go to 'rescue mode'
    Click on the firmware update, and when it asks you what language, highlight re-load OS ( or firmware) in recovery mode on your player.
    As soon as the screen on your player prompts you to re-load firmware, click on your language choice on the P.C upgrade window.
    If there is no language option, then get ready to select re-load OS on your player when the update starts on your P.C.
    This only works with XP
    If the above doesnt work:
    Did the firmware error occur as a result of an attemtp to upgrade the formware to a plays for sure version?
    Is the player regognised by your P.C running windows XP? ( go to control panel then hardware, then device manager?
    This is what happened when i tried to upgrade ther firmware on my Zen xtra, what i did to fix it was based on what other people had tried on various other creative playerws such as the touch/micro/vision etc

  • Creative Zen Xtra Firmware Upgrade Problems v1

    While trying to upgrade the firmware on my Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra, there was a problem with the upgrade. I'm now stuck in rescue mode v.3. When I plug the MP3 player into the computer, Windows will recognize it and asks me what to do. I exit that window and try to run the firmware update again. The firmware program tells me "Your player is not connected, please connect your player."? there are 2 options "Upgrade" and "close". Upgrade is greyed out, but close is clickable. I've tried
    1. clean up,
    2. format all,
    3. reload OS and
    4. Reboot.
    None of those options seems to do me any good. I've uninstalled all the Creative software from my computer, but still no luck. Please help me. I'm doing my best to avoid having to go buy an iPod, but if I can't get my Creative Mp3 player to work, I guess I will have to. I have spent a lot of money between cables, the docking station and the leather case. I'd hate for all this to be wasted, so please help me.
    I've tried to "reload the OS" and then clicked on the language the moment the Player told me to start the update. Someone please shed some light on this for me. I've tried email Customer Support. I've searched Google. I've put my best skills on it and of course I've scoured this website to no prevail. Someone help me out.

    READ ALL BEFORE PROCEEDING You do need to install the driver. http://support.creative.com/Products...e=MP3+Players# When you get to the page for your player bottom left the manual selection choose Xp & clik submit the driver should be the first one version 2.0.00 .After the driver is installed when you plug in the player check in device manager to see that it shows up there Start>Control Panel> System>Hardware>Device Manager look under Portable Devices or for the name of the player. Use a rear USB Port to assure a good connection. Then run the firmware file on the computer ,choose reload firmware or Os on the player,choose language when player asks for update(the pop-up from windows indicating that it "sees" the device DO NOT CLOSE IT.)

  • Creative Zen 20GB Firmware prob

    well just go to creative.com, then go to support, then go to downloads. then zen touch then. then download the new firmware, well i mean old.

  • Creative Zen Xtra Firmware not updat

    Hi everyone,
    After a few months of disuse I got out my old Zen Xtra 30GB. I turned it on and it booted to Rescue Mode. I formatted everything and erased the OS. Now when I plug the player in (After installing the most recent drivers) Windows recognises it and Media Source makes a half-hearted attempt at syncing it, but when I try to update it with the latest PlaysForSure firmware the updater first gives me "Your player's current firmware is the same as this version. Do you want to continue?". I click yes, and the firmware updater says "Your battery levels are too low. Please charge your batteries before you proceed."
    Obviously I can't charge the batteries while in Rescue Mode, so I am unable to proceed with the firmware update. The player is plugged into the mains as I do this. The player appears in Media Source (latest version) and in the device manager without a malfunction sign or anything. Also the old version of the firmware updater before PlaysForSure doesn't recognise the player.
    Is there anyway to bypass the battery level check so I can install the firmware? Thanks.

    You won't believe but I had the same problem just couple of days ago with the same player (but 40 gigs). I was confused just like you, so I tried to format the disk again (while connected to PC) and reloaded the OS. Then a message appeared like 'Now you can update your firmware' or something like that, so I ran the firmware from PC, and no message about a battery level appeared, and the firmware was updated correctly. Try it, and let me know if it's OK! Good luck!

  • Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra firmware prob

    I tried to upgrade the firmware and now my Xtra is in Rescue Mode.
    None of the updates that I downloaded from the website area all telling me that no device is detected.
    But my computer recognizes my Xtra.
    I tried downloading everything again but that didn't work.
    Now my wife bought a Zen V with all different programs, but I don't know if that makes a difference.
    What exactly am I doing wrong?

    if the above solution doesn't work, i had a similar problem on the same model. if i remember, i just did different combinations of reboots, formatting, and firmware upgrades. it sounds unscientific, but i eventually got the computer to recognize the player and it worked until it got stolen (sad story). i know this isn't great advice, but in short: don't give up on it too easily. those things are surprisingly resiliant.

  • Creative Zen Touch firmware prob

    I know this is an old obsolete player but it has worked fine for me until now. I just got a new computer and to use this with it I needed to update to the plays for sure firmware. Knowing I could not do this on the vista computer I decided to do it on the XP laptop and backed up all of my music before beginning. Well the update hung and left my zen touch in recovery mode. Is there any solution to this or am I stuck having to buy a new mp3 player?
    Any help would be appreciated while I wait for a response from Creative Labs.
    TIA Claudia

    What O.S. is on the other computer? I don't know about the licenses you should be able to back those up thru media player and store it . To rollback media player I first need to know is that computer Xp or Vista ? If it is Vista you can't roll it back . It would have to be an Xp machine for that. ? http://forums.creative.com/creativel...hread.id=66060 ? These are the instructions to rollback media player to wmp0 don't forget to uninstall the wmp runtimeMessage Edited by coachop94 on 08-30-2008 07:25 PM

  • Creative Zen Xtra Firmware Failure/Reload OS- Here's the how to fix

    I know all of you must be excited just reading the word Fix.
    Alright here is a very simple guide how to get that "upgrade button" back on the firmware upgrade software.
    Considering that you have reached this point because you tried and failed to load firmware 2.0.3.0 because creative sucks.. well i have more bad news for you.. the only way that players is going to work now is you have to retry that crappy firmware and hope it'll work once.. so have it ready on your desktop. Remember you can't revert to old firmware.
    OK, now the most important thing is requirements: You need to have all of these requirements:
    .Win XP SP2
    2.Window Media player 0 with all the updates (go to microsoft and update it!)
    Now you need to go to Device Manager, while your player is connected to your PC and find that MTP (ussually all the way at the bottom of the list). higlight it and update it's drivers (requires internet connection)
    After doing that, you would have to Delete all of your USB Controllers. It is not messed up, but it is the only way for creative crappy software and player to re-connect.
    Now when your done go to that firmware update and the Upgrade button should be Lit up once again.. and hope this time the upgrade works.. if not. well repeat all steps again.
    Note: Be sure the Battery is FULLY charged, plugging it to a power outlet doesnt do the trick. If the battery is to low the firmware will say it wont proceed because of battery. Another creative dumbass programming.

    On your desktop.
    . Right click My Computer.
    2. Click on Hardware Tab
    3. Click Device Manager
    4. Click Uni'versal Serial Bus Controllers +
    5. Right Click Each of them and Click Unninstall
    6. Restart your computer (press Windows button and use keyboard and select Shutdown)
    7. Windows will automatically re-install USB drivers. Make sure Nomad Is not Connected
    8. Go Back to Device Manager, and plug in your Nomad. Window will detect it and place it under MTP Devices.
    9. Creative Mediasource Will not Detect it.
    0.Right Click MTP device and chose Update Driver.
    Now go to the firmware upgrade software you downloaded. Must be the latest version, the playfor sure version.
    Click the upgrade button.
    To use media source, you have to download the playforsure plug in for Play for sure firmware.
    Without it, you can only use window media player 0. If you dont have window media player 0, you have to download it.

  • 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
    ps.

  • 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]

    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.

  • How does someone become a beta tester for Zen Xtra Firmware

    I have a lot of experience in Hardware/Software integration and am interested in becoming a beta tester for Zen Xtra firmware. Is there someone that a mod could put me in touch with to pursue this oppertunity?
    Thx in Advance
    Dustin

    There is a beta programme, but I'm not sure how you apply to be a tester.
    At a guess Creative pick people they know, or if they need to recruit they'll post on the forum.

  • Creative Zen micro: "Firmware Problem&qu

    hey, i have a Creative zen micro (orange, 6gb but i think it doesent matters"), but when i turn it on, it says "Firmware problem".
    and it goes to the menu (think is called Recovery menu) and it shows:
    Creative Zen Micro V0.0.65
    1.Clean Up
    2.Format all
    3.Reload frimware
    4.Reboot
    now creative tells me to download a new firmware.
    i did.
    then to "RELOAD FIRMWARE"
    and click on the upgrade, but then it says that there is no player connected, and my compuer does recognize it.
    is there any way to fix this or is my zen busted?

    I had a simalar problem with my Zen xtra, if it failed durng a firmware update and its stuck in recue mode try this:
    Remove all creative software and drivers from your P.C
    remove windows media player and media player runtime ( from control panel/add/remove programs - if you have them listed there) you should see it go through a rollbackl procedure to an earlier version of wiondows media player.
    Downlaod the latest firmware for your player
    Re-boot/re start your P.C
    Go to the creative support website, and download the plays for sure software suite
    listed as:
    <i>. Creative MediaSource Plugin for PlaysForSure devices (version .00.8)3.98 MB 28 Apr 05 </i>
    install the software by clicking on it.
    RE-boot your P.C, with your player conected via USB
    once your P.C re-starts, go to the location where the firmware was downloaded to and get ready to start the upgrade
    Copnnect your player to its charger ( unless it charges via USB)
    On your player slect the reload OS option in the rescue menu
    When prompted by your player start the firmware update on your PC.
    <i>with the Zen xtra firmware you had/need to select the language option in the update on the P.C when the p[layer displays the 'update over USB' message.</i>
