How to update firmware on a Zen Mic

Hello,
i want to downgrad the firmware of my zen micro. i got a windows xp with sp2 and several updates. when i click on update i only see the time symbol and nothing happens neither on the desktop nor on my mp3 player.
i got the newest firmware with plays for sure. i tried it on a windows 2000 pc but there it is not detected.
i tried it with the recovery mode, and "erased" there the firmware, but actually it isnt erased.
how can i erase the firmware? how can i upgrade it's?

You can "downgrade", or at least go back to a v.xx PDE firmware version. The latest ..0 firmware is able to detect and downgrade from the v2.xx PFS/MTP firmware.

What version of the firmware is on the Micro now (before 2.00.2)?
BTW, when I installed .02.05 over .0.03, it also hung in the reboot phase. I disconnected, then went in Rescue Mode, did a Reload OS, and ran the installer again.
Oh, and make sure to disable any MediaSource sniffer, if it's acti've...

Updated firmware of Creative Zen Nano P

Questions?. Why do i need to download new updated firmware every now and then?2. WHat is the disadvantages if i don't download new updated firmware every now and then?3. What is the difference of the updated firmwares found in creative download section and the DAPJukebox website?4. Which is has the best quality firmwares, the creative download section or the DAPJukebox website?thanks?

All software regardless how good the quality control will have bugs.
Firmware is just software that is stored in the hardware on your device. New firmware is often released by a company to fix bugs or possibly add functionality that could enhance the use of a device.
But it is also possible that a new firmware update might add a new bug or two. (a rare occurance)?Sometimes (unfortunatly) new firmware upgrades can end up removing a feature.
For example it appears creative was under some legal pressure to remove the radio recording feature from there devices. On the ZVM, it was removed in one firmware upgrade, then in a later one it was replaced. On the Zen Nano Plus it was removed in the latest firmware upgrade (which is actually a bit old in calendar terms right now), but they have not released a later version that adds the recording back in. So in the case o fthe Zen Nano Plus, an firmware upgrade could be considered a bad thing.
If you require and use the radio recording functionality, then upgrading to the latest version (to fix some minor bugs) could end up crippling some of the functionality of the device. Normally when new firmware is released, there are notes detailing changes in functionality, bugs fixed, and even bugs that still exist. By looking at the information you can determine if you want/need to upgrade to the latest firmware.
Since there is some inherent risk in upgrading a firmware, most people don't upgrade firmware unless they need the new functionality or are experiencing a bug of some kind on the device that the new firmware might possibly remedy.

*FIXXED* Issues updating firmware on Creative ZEN portable devices after installing Media Player

<font face="Times New Roman" size="2">?Quote from windows website ?If you have a Creative ZEN device, see http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player//readme.aspx#RollingbacktoapreviousversionofthePlay er Read the ?Rolling back to a previous version of the Player? instructions (by the way windows website is even willing to address the problems with creatives products. And they offer possible solutions)
*Some people said this was all you needed to do but it did not work for me.
2. I uninstalled every program which mentioned creative.
a. Click my computer
b.click Add / Remove programs
c. Find anything that is made by creative and uninstall (or if you hate creative as much as me just look for anything that says creative or might hint at being a creative product)
3.Go into My Computer / Program Files? and delete the folder named ?creative?
4.Click ?Start? Click ?run? type in ?MSCONFIGOK? on the tabs click ?Services? then click on ?manufacturer? and uncheck anything that says Creative, click ?service? and also uncheck anything which mentions creative? if you think it has to do with creative technologies ltd. *RESTART*
Tried to load firmware again... ?Nothing
5. Installed old software from ?creative zen touch? & ?Creative Media Source? from the Creative Zen Touch CD. On both just did the full install. They congratulated me on my purchase of my zen touch! They could have?congratulated me on burning 250$. *Restarted
*THIS IS THE KEY*************
6. Download Microsoft media player 0 from some website, I used oldversion.com
http://www.oldversion.com/download.p...e4e5bbb7694ded?
7. I then updated windows media player ten... just updates for 0 I didn't install .
8. On this WINDOWS site http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...dme.aspx#57877 click on and read ?Issues with devices after removing Windows Media Player?. When you are done with the procedure of deleting and reinstalling your the portable device I plugged in my mp3 player and it recognized it's not a big shock because it recognized it as a zen touch before I deleted the drivers. So I got the new drivers it noticed it, just like other systems noticed, but this time the Creative horribly programmed firmware update recognized it. I will never buy another creative product again, probably most of you wont either. But I have already paid the money for this product so I plan on using it until the battery dies on me. Hope this helps!

How to update firmware for mac os x

I downloaded firmware for my MacBook Pro 2007. Can someone assist me with the installation. The firmware is on my desktop but I do not know which application to open it with? I am confused by all of the files.

Hello Kappy,
Thank you for responding so quickly. I went online to Apple to update my MacBook Pro 2007 (Mac OS X 10.4.11) I have Firefox 3.6.28 as my internet connection. I downloaded the firmware to my MacBook Pro. I opened the Firmware restoration CD download and the following files were there:
IM51_0090_08B.fd
IM61_0093_05B.fd
LICENSE
MB21_00A5_06B.fd
MBP21_00A5_02B.fd

MP11_005C_04B.fd
MP21_007F_02B.fd
README
XS11_0080_00B.fd
When I tried to open them to figure out which file I needed for the update. I received a message saying an application is needed to open the file(s). I do not know where to go from here. Do you have any idea how to proceed? I truly appreciate your support.

How to update Firmware

Hi,
I have a E66, but when i run the Nokia Software Updater, it states that i have Firmware v. 200.21.118 and that there is no new Firmware!
How do i update the Firmware then?
I want to update because of some problems wiht the alarmclock and batteri life.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If the updater says it isn't available then all you can do is wait, checking the updater often.
Firmware is not released at the same time all over the world and it can take a month or two to be widely available. Network branded/supplied phones take even longer to get updates and this is controlled by the networks, not nokia.
So really all you can do is wait and be patient as no one here can tell you when it will be released.
Any methods of forcing an update that you may read about elsewhere cannot be discussed here as warranty voiding topics are against the rules.

How can update firmware on a GTX670 or HD5450 GPU?

Hi
How or where can I get the firmware of a EVGA GeForce GTX670 or a XFX Radeon HD5450 updated so I get to see the white EFI screen when booting my Mac Pro?
I installed the GTX670 a few months ago and the Mac Pro boots and works fine with it. What I would like to do is fit a SSD drive and install OS X. Without the EFI screen I can't start to install OS X off the DVD.
I look forward to some ones help
Gary

Never really wanted to crack open the Mac Pro, but the original Radeon wasn't upto the job of running X-Plane or Digital Combat Simulator (DCS) in Boot Camp. The Pro is supposed to be my software development system. If I could be rid of Windows, I would. DCS is Windows only so I will have to knock together a PC.
A bit off topic... I also 'fly' X-Plane. A friend and I have built a flight simulator that works with X-Plane. A couple of concept drawings attached. Instead of hydralics we used pneumatic rams and quiet compressors. The simulator works very well and is great fun to fly. I am now writing the software to get the simulator to work with DCS.
Back on topic... Hopefully Apple will release a Mac Pro with SATA3, Thunderbolt, USB3, the ability to have multiple GPUs and use tech like SLI and PCIe 3. The Pro deserves a good overhaul.
In the meantime the Sonnet kit looks cool. I am liking the idea of a MacBook Air + Sonnet Echo + GTX670. If that would work(?)

How to update firmware with a boot camp'd macbook?

this is pretty frustrating..... there seems to be no way to update the firmware on a macbook that has had xp/vista installed. the disk is no longer a GUID type, it's an MBR disk now, and the EFI partition is gone. i could recreate the EFI partition but that wouldn't help at all with the GUID problem.
i installed mac os x onto a clean external usb drive, which is now a GUID disk with the right file system and so on... it doesn't have an EFI partition, which i would have thought the mac os x installer would have made. the firmware updater has the big ! on the disk and says it doesn't meet the requirements.
any ideas here? will the firmware update simply not run from an external drive? if so, how on earth is someone supposed to ever update their firmware if they use boot camp?

When you create GPT using Disk Utility on your USB/FW it will have EFI and GUID, but you won't see them until back in Windows.
And yes, you should be able to run firmware updates off USB drive with OS X. Should. But that doesn't always mean will/can or that it was even tested in that configuration
Boot Camp is for GPT with an MBR table to trick or allow Windows to install. If you formatted a drive internal as MBR you didn't use BC or at least not need to.

How To: Update Firmware on Blu-ray Players

Here is my question: I have been burning DVD's of our annual talent show to give as a gift to the performers in appreciation of their work in the show. After burning 10, my DVD burner stopped working and the message requested that I update my "Firmware" - no other message and no clue as to how to go about doing this.
I have a Toshiba Satellite A665 laptop that I purchased in 2010 and this was the first attempt at burning a DVD which as I said went well for the first 10 but now I cannot get the thing to burn anymore.
How do I update my firmware? Any clues would be greatly appreciated as some of these performers are snowbirds and will be leaving for the north (Canada, Mishigan, New York, to name a few of the places) and I hate for them to leave without a DVD of their performance so that they can share the fun with their relatives back home.
Help!!!!!!!!
Irwin

Peter:
Had some medical emergencies and haven't really gotten back to my problem with the DVD's and Firmware - but I did attempt a different project recently (which also needed me to burn a DVD that was larger than the typical 4.7 GB) and was successful in doing so. I ended up pulling the still pictures out so that the size wasn't so big and put them in a separate folder and then attempted successfully, I might add, to burn the DVD using a 4.7 GB DVD instead of a Dual Level 8.5 GB DVD.
Hopefully things will quiet down this weekend and I will do some research into using the Toshiba Service Station you made reference to. But for now, I am a happy camper. Oh, by the way, since I learned how to do it using the 4.7 GB DVD's, I merely broke the talent show into two parts and burned it on two smaller DVDs versus attempting to put it on the 8.5 GB DVD. What puzzled me was that I could burn the 4.7 GB DVD's but not the 8.5 GB DVD's. But hey - it worked.
Thanks again for all your support.
