How about a status update on mtu for zen xtra--i want napster to

hey creative,
any word on the update for mtu support for the xtra? napster is announcing the official release of napster to go, but as it currently stands, you can only use it on the micro, not the touch or the xtra. for a number of months we have been hearing that the release was just around the corner....any update?

To whom it may concern,
I am replying to a post from 2004 about Napster to go compatibility with the Nomad Zen Xtra 40gb.
I have to say I am very upset that on July 8th, 2005 I bought the Zen Xtra 40gb after seeing THAT day that the Napster to go Service will be available soon from Creative. <This is on the NTG web page>
I went to Best Buy, and bought the Zen...and today am pissed off to find that the firmware upgrade that is "Coming soon" was announced as far back as 2004!!
This is REALLY upsetting and I am considering returning the Zen for an I-Ri'ver.
Now, don't get me wrong, I LOVE the Zen xtra 40gb to death.. and don't want to give it up.. but the Napster to go Service is way too tempting and was a major decision when I bought the Zen Xtra.
So, any news on the firmware? Is it ever coming? Or do I return my player?
Thanks!

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.

have an ipod and then got the wife an iphone4. all passwords are screwed up. she can not access playstore cuz she doesn't have password. i can not get find any help on how to get or update a password for the ipod. and then get her a separate password for her iphone. we need to save her photos, music, etc to ? icloud and the phone stuff to verizon cloud? so when she gets her new Iphone6 she can have all her "stuff" back on the new phone. hope this makes sense. please offer suggestions here or at [email protected] thanks for your help!

Oh no! I'm sorry to see there's a lot of confusion here and data shared, x-rayDon. We can definitely work to fix. This happens when two devices share the same Apple ID, so she will need to reset hers. She can do so by assessing this link Apple - My Apple ID. You will need to decide who will keep the account if want separate Apple IDs since purchases cannot be shared unless you do Family Sharing.

D.p.middleton the Adobe Application Manager has been available for quite some time. It not only allows Creative Cloud users to install their applications but also downloads and applies applicable updates. In addition it is also responsible for the licensing and managing your agreement to the terms and conditions of the EULA.
2. this could be due to you selecting a trial subscription to the Creative Cloud? If you go to one of the Adobe Creative products and select Help>Updates it will launch the update portion of the Adobe Application Manager which I believe is the portion you are looking for?
#3 I believe this was already mostly covered in the answer to #2.
#4 the Adobe Application Manager also receives periodic updates which affects both perpetual and Creative Cloud subscription users.
I hope this provides you many of the answers you are looking for? If not please feel free to respond back with any additional inquiries which you have. Also if you are experiencing any difficulties with the update process please post this as well. It may not be necessary to have a full understanding of the inner workings of the Adobe Application Manager to help you resolve your difficulties.

Firmware update for Zen Xtra, a simple quest

Hello,
I have purchased my zen xtra on July. It works just fine. When i go to "about" in the menu to see the player's version it says .03.02. I don't know if i need to upgrade the firmware because nomad's page for upgrade provides a firmware with same number: Creative NOMAD Zen Xtra firmware update version .03.02
Does it mean i already have the latest firmware version in my player or do i still have to upgrade it's
Thanks!
Al

Alrichi,
If your player already showing the exact same firmware version as with the download then you would already have the same firmware version. You do not need to update again.

Firmware Update 2.10.03 for Zen Xtra and Yahoo! Music Unlimi

Right now I am having trouble with putting tracks on my Zen Xtra from a Yahoo! Music Unlimited account. I believed that Yahoo's music services were accepted by the Zen Xtras, but I'm not so sure now. I downloaded the latest firmware for my Xtra (2.0.03), and supposedly that is supposed to upgrade the player's Playforsure capabilities, including allowing it to accept subscription-based-tracks from music services. However, when I went to take the tracks from the Yahoo Music Jukebox it said that the device or the device firmware is "not subscription-music compatible". I went on Yahoo music's website and it said that Zen Xtra is one of the players that is supported but I was wondering if anyone else with an Xtra had any trouble with Yahoo's Music Unlimited. I would appreciate any help you can give me.

Problems with firmware 2.10.03 upgrade for Zen xtra 3

Recently I attempted to upgrade the firmware on my Zen Xtra and the upgrade failed and I was unable to turn the unit back on. I send the unit into Creative and was advised that the player has no power and that it needs to be replaced for $95.00. I am not clear how I went from a working unit to this condition by attempting a firmware update. Does anyone have a similar experience?

just had exactly the same thing happen. Started to load the new firmware and player stopped dead, tried everything recommended, reboots, change battery, delete/rebuild USB drivers. Nothing. Talked to Creative and got RMA and the Test Results as of tonight was "No Power with Battery" Waiting to hear what that means. The player was fine it was their software that was bad.

2.10.03 Firmware for Zen Xtra: Is software interface differe

My firmware update worked perfectly and I can drag and drop from Windows Explorer to my unit. However, now I can't access my music with the same options I had before. Is this all there is? Do I now have to wait until a new firmware is designed without this omission? Has anybody updated their firmware successfully, with a unit that is working normally, and now they are dissatisfied with the new interface and the lack of options to search for music on their player? If so, is there any fix?
Please help if you have anything to offer, I'm desperate.

Thanks Chainsaw,
What I meant was, is the software interface within the Zen Xtra unit different. I have already installed the new Creative Explorer version. When I try to access my music now an example would be: I go into my music library, scroll down to Genres and select that, then scroll to R&Band select that; now, is where my new problem begins. Instead of offering me the option to View Artists within my R&B collection, I'm only given the option to Open the R&B file where it then displays all of my albums alphabetically or all of the individual songs (in the entire R&B collection) alphabetically. Before, I could search the Genres by Artist and then album. Now in order to search by Artist I have to search for an artist by searching through a file containing every artist, in every genre on my player. This is way too cumbersome and I'm very sorry that I updated the firmware now.
Incidentally, my son just bought the Zen Touch 20GB and we downloaded the 2..0 firmware on his player. It seems to be working fine with dragging and dropping files from Windows Explorer (Media Center 2005). The firmware on his unit has a proper filing system like I had before.
This is just a thought......what would happen if I tried to load the Zen Touch Firmware 2..0 onto my Jukebox Zen Xtra to replace the 2.0.03. Just wondering. It is a later release so it might take. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had EXACTLY the same problem.... i had to send the zen xtra back... never found out the exact problem, but in my opinion there was a problem with the usb connection on the unit.
I lost pretty much 50gigs worth of music and files
The player would connect but browsing took forever and transfers always timed out

How much would it cost to get a Zen Xtra repaired after the warranty has expir

Also, does it cost money to get it fixed during the warranty? I wouldnt think so, but just checking.

it would cost very little as think about it, it uses removable batteries so too many charge cycles can be easily remedied by buying a new battery. Also, although i own a flash player and not the zen xtra so cannot verify this, it uses standard 2.5" laptop hardri'ves that are not modifyed to not work outside of the player like in the Muvo2, so that is also easily replaceable. So the two most common casues of HDD mp3 player deaths have already been dealt with. If something else brekas and you are out of warranty ibelieve you have to buy a whole new unit.

Car adapter for zen xtra 40 or 60

Hello all!
I did do a message search for this question, but I couldn't find what I was looking for...so I apologize in advance if this has been asked and answered.
I'm thinking of buying a zen xtra 40 or 60 GB tomorrow, but I really need the car adapter to charge and/or play it. Is there one available? I read on an Amazon review that you could buy one at Radio Shack or Bed Bath and Beyond? Can anyone verify this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as my decision is based upon this answer...
Thanks
dave

I had the same problem.
The car charger for the Zen Xtra is not listed on the main page accessories:
http://us.creative.com/shop/shopcategory.asp?category=3
You have to go to the Zen Xtra page first and then look in the accessories to find it:

Covers For Zen Xtra 40

They should make changable covers for the zen xtra. or do they already?

SSR wrote:
I'm guessing they won't make any for the Xtra.
Yeah, I agree... the Xtra is over a year old; If they were going to relese acessories like more covers, my guess is that they would have released them when the player first came out.
