IS CREATIVE MAKING A CAR ADAPTER FOR ZEN MICRO LIKE APPLE MADE FOR iP

Does anybody know if they will create a similar product?

Apple makes no such thing really (that I know of). I believe Belkin makes a lot of their car products as well. The closest is the iTrip.
For something that plugs in like a standard headphone jack, you need a way into your CD player. be it if your head-unit has RCA jacks, a standard headphone-in, a line-in, or anyother hook-up. If not, you have to find a way in through a third-party box.
I know for Honda Accords, SoundGate makes such a product.
If nothing can be found for your vehicle you will need a tape->CD adapter or an FM modulator.
For the tape option, you need a tape player in the car. The quality will not exceed tape quality.
For the FM option, you can get a stand alone (just a little broadcaster that you tune too on your radio) or an inline (plugs into your antenae; you still tune in but it has better quality).
Hope that helps!

In-car adapter for macbook air - what's the latest on this please?

I've got the latest macbook air and need to use it, and charge it, from a 12 volt car socket. I understand that I cannot do this though - surely I must have been misinformed?
It seems that apple do make an "empower" socket rated at 15 volts that you can use on a plane, but it doesn't recharge the battery. However, clearly this limits the usefulness of sorting out some kind of rig-up, suggested in some chat rooms, with a dc-dc (ie 15v - 12v) adapter.
Does anyone know where a dc in-car adapter for a macbook air is available?

Modern Outpost is coming out with a MacBook 12V DC car adaptor, and are hoping to add an Air adaptor in the near future...

I see the comments about using an AC Inverter, but I prefer to speak about solutions that will work with solar chargers too. An AC inverter will not only NOT work from a solar panel without extra & heavy equipment, but it wastes more than 20-40% of your power... first it converts your battery power to dirty household AC, then your Apple adaptor converts it back to DC for your Mac.
I suggest using a DC adaptor and bypass the middleman.
Modern Outpost's website has nothing posted yet...

Which car adapter for PB 17 ?

I am looking for a car adapter for a Powerbook 1.5 17". One model that is readily available in my area is the Targus Car Air, a universal laptop model with 70W output. It does also work as a main power adapter, which would be good if the original fails on the move. But it is sold through the PC shops and there is no mention of older Apple plugs. Anyone knows, or has another model to suggest? Would 70W be okay with an added external USB powered drive? Thanks!

go to wal-mart and to the auto section. In the same aisle as the car stereos you will see some ipod accessories that are not in the electronics section. They will tell you on the package which one is for your ipod. You can probably go to walmart.com and look it up too.

There are but they don't come with the ipad (or ipad 2). Walmart has them for 10 - 40 $.

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:

You have to go to the Zen Xtra page first and then look in the accessories to find it:

Need advice on a car adapter for SGPT112US/S

I'm really surprised to think that Sony hasn't provided a USB adapter for this tablet. Seems a simple thing to do, in view of the fact that it is so basic and a NECESSITY! Please provide me with the specs (like voltage output requirements) so I can buy an aftermarket one. It appears that the 5v USB output on my computer is insufficient to do the job either. I saw that an inverter for the ac adapter was mentioned, but I think thats not what I would want.

I find it interesting that Sony would offer a mobile device dependent solely on household current. No, I think the word rediculous is more appropriate. So, I can use the GPS on the road, as long as the drive is no longer than 8 hours, or less, based on the fact that the battery really won't last as long as it was stated in the marketing literature. Come on Sony! All the development costs to build the tablet, then get chintzy on such a cheap thing to make. At least tell me what the input voltage should be so I can buy something compatible. This is BS

Creative MediaSource won't recognize my Zen Micro all of the sudden!! What is going o

When I first began using my Zen Micro, Creative MediaSource worked fine. I could start my player and it recognized it right away. Then I was told I had to update my firmware and download an update to MediaSource. I did both but shortly thereafter I started having problems! Primarily, when i plug in my Micro a window pops up where I have 3 options, none of which are Creative MediaSource. The window has "MTP Media Player" across the top bar, but i havn't a clue what the "MTP" stands for. The 3 options given are "Sync your music using Napster", "Synchronize media files to this device using Windows Media Player", and "Take no action". I initialy tried "Take no action" and then opened MediaSource only to find it didn't recognize my Micro any more. I then e-mailed Creative for help and got a reply telling me to.............
Thank you for contacting Creative Technical Support.
In regards to your issue, you can try uninstall and reinstall
MEdiaSource with these procedures.
. Click START -> RUN -> type MSCONFIG and click OK.
2. Click SELECTIVE STARTUP and then uncheck LOAD STARTUP GROUP ITEMS.
3. Apply the changes and reboot the computer when prompted.

C:\MEDIA\MUSIC
6. Right-click your My Computer icon and click Properties.
7. Click the Hardware tab and then click Device Manager.
8. Remove any listings for Creative NOMAD products in the Device
Manager
(they will most likely be located in the Uni'versal Serial Bus
Controllers category).
9. If you have a category call Other Devices, look for listings in
there
called USB Device. If you have any, remove them.
0. Install MediaSource only from the original installation CD.
NOTE: DO NOT OPEN MEDIASOURCE WHILE PERFORMING THESE PROCEDURES.
Also, you can try reloading the Zen Micro's firmware through recovery
mode.
Move and hold the Power button to the Power On position and re-insert
the battery to the Zen Micro. Hold the Power button until the rescue
mode appears.

I followed the directions, but 3 of the folders listed in step 5 didn?t exist (only C:\PROGRAM FILES\CREATIVE\MEDIASOURCE did), there were no Creative NOMAD products listed as in step 8, and there was no ?Other Devices? as stated in step 9. I did everything else for all the steps through step 0.
I then re-installed Creative MediaSource from the CD only to find it still didn?t recognize my player! I?ve now done this twice with the same results!
Zen Micro Media Explorer doesn?t even recognize my Micro when it'ss plugged in! It just keeps saying ?The device is not connected. Please connect your Zen Micro to the computer?.
I?m hardly a tech expert, but it seems to me that something on my PC is detecting my player and decieding for itself that the only 2 programs it will let manage my Zen Micro are Napster and Windows Media Player. If this is the case where do I go from here?!?!

LakeTahoeGuy,
Just as SSR mention, if you're using v2.xx.xx (MTP) firmware then you will need to get the correct version of Media Explorer that support this firmware and also install the MTP plugin for MediaSource. Both the software and plugin are available from the site SSR mention.

Making the most of the Zen Micro sound qual

Recently got a Zen Micro, first thing i realise - AMAZING sound quality!
If you want to make the most of this great little player, use WMA (If possible Version 9 or 0) @ 92 Kbps (however this does has a large effect on battery life), configure the custom EQ and perhaps buy some new earphones (I own some Sennheiser Mx500's - FANTASTIC sound quality).
Hope this has been of some help!!

Even better, use LAME encoded VBR MP3s and some Sony EX5/7 canal phones

Apple should put in their gadgets some new application to develop the human creativity, to suugest people to develop amazing things, like apple spirit.

I think apple should install from factory some new app to develop the creativity of the human mind, it's really amazing to use ipad, ipod, mac and iphone, so i think the only thing it needs is some app to create, something new and amazing like apple spirit. What do you think?

The actual creative process or the way to do/use things is not in any application or machine, and as soon as it is, the human equation will no longer be relevant (resistance will be futile, you will be assimilated). All anyone (parents, companies, governments and educational systems, etc) can do is to allow the environment that encourages people to be creative.
Apple provides the community and the tools to be creative with applications for their machines, and businesses are always looking for ways to separate you from your money, so I'm not sure what else you think they can do to coax ideas out of people.

Factory Radio Car Adapter for iphone

I just purchased an ipod interface for factory GM Radio by Peripheral Electronics. It connects to the 30 pin connector on an ipod and plugs into an empty plug in the back of my factory radio.
I connected my iphone to it.I get the message "incompatible accessory would you like to turn airplane mode". I select no and the music begins playing through my factory radio. When I get a call the music stops playing and i hear the ringer through my car speakers. i Answer but the voice from the call only comes through the ear speaker not the car audio.
Now my actual question: Will it damage my iphone to use this product not in airplane mode even though it seems to work okay?

russweb72,
I just got off the phone with Apple Care and they claim that if the accessory will work with an iPod then it will work with the iPhone's iPod functionality. I have a unit that operates exactly as you described but I was worried about the charging aspect. The Apple Care representative assured me that if the "lightning bolt" indicator is coming on then it is in fact charging the iPhone and everything should be fine.
I solved the problem of answering calls with the Apple Bluetooth Headset. Now when the call comes in, the music fades out and the ring is heard through the car speakers and a generic ring is heard in the headset. I press the button on the headset and talk away, when the call is ended with another push of the button, the music fades back in. I hope this helps.
