Is Zen Vision:M compatable with napst

Since i've seen it on napters website i assume it is but whenever i try and transfer songs napster doesnt recognize my player, or worse it says that the vision is NOT compatable and i have to buy every single song.... WTF? did i just miss something or what is going on?

Yes, there's a project called XNJB and though it's in beta, it has been confirmed by one of my members at epiZENter.net to work with MTP devices like the Vision:M. Now it won't work directly thru itunes, but your itunes library shows up in the program, and when you export files from your player they show up in the library.

Creative Zen 16gig not compatible with Napster To

The product page clearly states this product is compatible with Napster To Go but when I open Napster and try to drag a song to the lower right hand corner it says my device is not compatible and needs a firmware upgrade. I JUST upgraded the firmware like 20min ago and my account is to-go activated. Is this false adertising or am I doing something wrong?

The software that came on the original CD is not supported on vista.
The Zen Micro will work nati'vely with Vista if it contains the latest firmware version. If the Zen Micro isn't being recognized by Vista then you will need to use an older system (windows xp) to upgrade the firmware on the Zen Micro. Once Vista recognizes the Zen Micro you should be able to download Vista compatable versions of the software for the device from the creative website.

Replaced Zen Vision:M 30gb with same ~ Is it necessary to uninstall/remove original progra

So my Zen Vision:M 30 GB crashed and died a horrible death recently. I made the HUGE mistake of not holding onto my original receipt (duh) so even though it falls under warranty, I can't prove it. OK, that's my bad. I loved my Zen while it was working well so I decided to get another one. I really wanted the 60 GB but Creative Customer Support told me in no uncertain terms that the slimmer version would not be released in the US soon or, possibly, ever. (What's up with that ) So I just want to go back to my happy place with my music. I'm ready to get all set up with my new player. BUT ~ do I need to remove all programs related to Creative and reinstall with the new CD provided with my new Zen It would make sense to do so, I suppose. Start from scratch. But I see four programs listed as Creative in my computer. They are:Creative MediaSourceCreative Removable Disk ManagerCreative System InformationCreative Zen Vision M Will I create a problem by removing all four Is there another program I'm not thinking of that should be removed I rolled back to WMP 0 because I read of so many problems with updating firmware and WMP . Now I read there's a fix in WMP and it's OK to reinstall. Anybody want to speak to that Should I dowload firmware right away So many questions... I just really want to get it right this time and enjoy my Zen life once again. Thanks!AFH

If I would have to venture a guess I would assume that there is an IRQ/Interrupt problem going on with your USB controller on your system.
This can can happen due to the system sharing the IRQ that the USB ports are on with other devices, or sometimes be the result of having an older USB driver or an older driver on a device that shares the IRQ with the USB ports.
Going to a slower hub is most likely slowing down the IRQ request rate (due to slower data rate) which keeps the system from becomming unstable. You might want to check out this thread here for some hints on things to try.
The gentleman in that thread was getting "blue screens" and reboots but its most likely the same basic type of problem.http://forums.creative.com/creativel...uery.id=490850

Zen Vision:M - help with moving files around once loa

Guys and Gals, i recently bought the Zen Vision:M and need some help. Once i loaded songs or vdos into it i find that i am not able to move these files from one folder to another. I am using the zen vision explorer program that came with it. it allows me to right click then select 'cut' or 'copy' but then when i navigate to where i want to paste it the paste option is greyed out when i right click. anyone have a solution for this? any help would be greatly appreciated.

it sucks... you want a song in one folder like the album into another right? Yeah you have to modify the ID tags to do that.... I took all my songs and changed the album name to ALL for my zvm using snackamp. Look it up it works fine. You can choose the songs you want to a particular album (works for 200 at a time) and choose the album for them all. Thats the only advantage of iPod i'd have to say... the ALL option under songs... so yeah get snackamp, use it, take all the songs off your zen and re-add them and it should be fine.

Zen Vision M:60 with USB host and Panasonic Camcorder SDR-

I own a Panasonic Camcorder SDR-S0 which stores its data on a SD card. I'm thinking about buying the Zen Vision M:60 to use it as a sort of "imagetank" for importing the videos when on vacation. Normally the data on the SD card are transferred by connecting the camera to the PC & transferring them with the Panasonic software MotionSD studio .2E. Another possibility is using Pictbridge. The resulting format of the recorded data is mpeg2.When on vacation I don't have my PC with me & I would like to transfer the data on the Vision M:60. I read that for importing photos this should not give any problems, but no trace of user experience of importing video, without passing thru a PC. I did following test to check which sort of data are on the SD card before transmission to the PC, by reading the SD card with a USB cardreader?: it contained data with .MODextenstion (which is apparently a MPEG-2 codec), .MOI?extension files (which I think is not?needed) & a .PGI file?(which I think is needed?for?graphics printers ?). I copied one?MOV00B.MOD file to my PC and tried to play it. I succeeded without any problem to play it on Windows Media Player. My question : does anyone has any experience with the transfer of this sort of data to the Zen Vision M:60 using the USB host connected either to the digital camcorder or to a cardreader and then importing the .MOD files. If so, could the data be played back on the Vision M:60 ?Thanks for your help ?[color="#ff0000"]As I want to buy the Zen Vision M:60 (bargain price :smileytongue I hope someone with experience on this matter will respond urgently as I leave on holiday next week !!!

According to the list of tested products here:?http://www.creative.com/products/pro...24&product=433?it's been tested on both Nikon Coolpix P3?and Nikon D200. So?I'd make the assumption that it probably does. It works with my Fuji S5600, and the list above shows they?only tested ?E900 and A600.

Zen Vision M errors with USB Recognit

Alright I had my Zen Vision now for over and a half years and I've loved it and it always worked perfectly beside some headphone issues. But today I go to plug my Zen into my computer and it doesn't start charging it nor does my computer recognize that something has been plugged into my USB port. The charging is not an issue for me because my Zen came with the DC power wall charger but I can't get any music onto my player. The funny thing is though that when the player is turned off and I connect it to the computer it turns on as if it was going to start charging and syncing but it just never gets to it.
I tried all USB ports in the back and it the front and its not a power issue because its fully charged due to the wall charger. It works great and I tried reseting it to the point where is rebuilt itself and I'm in the process of draining the battery then recharging it to see if that helps but I doubt it since the reseting didn't help. I can't add firmware and I refuse to format it if I even can do it from just the player which I dont know if I can because I have too much music on there.
Could it be an issue with the adapter that switches from DC charger to A/V output and USB? I don't know if its an issue with the adapter because the DC charger works so I don't know. I bought the extended warranty so thats not an issue but is the adapter covered in the warranty? Any help would be great and I'm a dedicated Creative fan thinking about getting the Stone Plus or another smaller player so I hope I can fix this issue here.
Thanks.

would you like to try this? works for melink

Does the Zen Vision M come with the A/C power adapter in the

I'm getting a Zen Vision M, and was lead to understand it comes with an A/C adapter for recharging. Looking in Creative's shop and on amazon.co.uk , this is the list of package contents:
ZEN Vision:M?
Earphones
Sync Adapter
USB Mini-B Cable
Pouch
Installation CD
User?s Manual</LI>
Does this mean it does NOT come with an A/C adapter? I really hope by 'sync adapter' they mean the A/C adapter as well?

I bought mine from Amazon when they first came out, package included the AC, USB cable and the dongle.
I've also recently bought the cradle which came with an USB cable.
The first version (mine) came with a small dongle to attach to the bottom of the ZV:M which had slots for AC, USB and AV - the cradle is the same thing but enables the ZV:M to be sat upright on its own.
I'm guessing that Creative are going down the iPlod route and providing the capacity to charge whilst docked, but external power as an extra cost.
http://uk.europe.creative.com/shop/p...asp?product=24 shows the cradle
http://uk.europe.creative.com/shop/p...asp?product=23 shows the dongle
The cradle description suggests that the AC is included, but it's not totally clear - I certainly didn't get an extra AC when I bought the cradle in April.
Best thing to do is to give them a call (0800 376 7954 so free in the UK) and ask if a plug is in either of the above packages.

Zen Vision M - Problem with Scr

I place my Vision M on locked mode (power button towards the padlock symbol) and use the player for a while. Then when I want to change album or skip a track I will slide the power button back to the middle. At this point the screen does not display properly and it has a washed out grey look with lines of interference at the bottom. Sometimes I cannot actually make anything out on the screen. It does not affect the music and sometimes if I just put it back on hold and then repeat the screen will be perfect.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and should I contact Amazon or Creative? I am willing to put up with the crackling bug that quite a few others are experiencing but since the screen on the VISION :-) was a big selling point I'm not prepared to put up with this.
Don't know how much longer I can take the iFake jokes from my buddies!! ;-)
Cheers

I found the easiest way is to do it in Creative Media Source 5, highlight all the tracks in the album you want to apply art to, right click, go to "edit properties", click on the last entry on the bottom, "change album art" and assign the JPG of your choice, then update tags and the album art will show on your player, it has worked 00% for me so far.

Zen Vision M - help with mp3 sound quality - decreases after trans

I use the Media Explorer to transfer songs from cd to the player. After?recently upgrading my OS to the XP service pack 2 (even though I don't know if this has anything to do with it), the sound quality of the mp3's has decreased when playing back on the player. Sound is real tinny. I checked the settings and?it's set to the highest quality. I always keep it at that and never change it. What am I missing here?

Check the transfer settings on WMP, it will often override and convert content when you transfer it even when you don't want it to.
Plug in your ZVm and wait for it to be recognized by your computer.Run Windows Media Player(in WMP)Tools->OptionsClick on "devices" tab (You should see your ZVM displayed in list)Click your ZVM in the list, and select propertiesClick the Quality TabChaing the settings from "Automatic" quality detection to manual and set alll the settings to the highest quality. Then give your transfers a try again.

Zen Vision: M problem with Album Cov

I've read a lot of intructions on these boards about dragging the album cover into the generic icon (after I select "View" and "Albums" in the Media Explorer. Thing is, when I try to drag a picture nothing happens. Next thing I try is to manually copy and paste the album cover into the same generic grey icon and it says that it won't allow it to be viewed in my device and asks me if I just want to drop it in the folder (which does no good). Anyone else solve this problem in the past? Do I have to use a certain type of image file type? I'm using jpgs.
Please help me.
?Also, I am using Windows Vista 32-bit Premium Home Edition. Thanks in advance. I really want my album covers to work, it will be so cool.

Zen vision m - problem with not showing albu

this is a weird problem i haven't encountered 'till recently, but ... i tried to put some albums onto my player (i use the windows explorer method) and they show up just fine there, and they ARE taking up physical space on the hard disk when i check system on the player, but for some reason, the albums don't show up ANYWHERE inside the player for me to actually play them. so ... any solutions? it's really bugging me.

Zen Vision M problem, album art is not showing

I am embedding the album art into the ID3v2 tags, as i assumed that it would show up when browsing my albums. But the art is not showing up and i have no idea why.
I had another problem which seems that my Zen is reading ID3v tags, a lot of my music was not being recognised, even with v2 tags, and was only recognised when i filled in the v tags also. Does anyone have suggestions as to whats going on here? It is a Zen Vision M 30gb, with the latest firmware, and i use Tag & Rename to edit tags and add the art, Im also on Vista if that changes anything.
Thanks in advance.Message Edited by Ninjabachelor on 0-28-20070:20 PM

Hi Boxy !
For now, you can't zoom in the Album Art, but it can be a new feature on a future firmware. To hack it somehow, you have to mess around the system folder which is inaccessible...

Zen Vision M Managing Active Selected Mu

I really like the Zen vision...with on exception: the inability to manage acti've Playlists and expand contract...selected music.
This is my fourth Creative MP3 player and the Zen Jukebox had a MUCH better music management system. You could expand/contract acti've playlists....move between playlists add edit selected music MUCH easier.
This has got to be an EASY fix for Creative to do...as they have the code from previous releases!
Creative please help! This is a great product and the fix has got to be an easy one for you all to put out.
Thanks from a loyal customer.

It could still be related to a file (or several). If a file is "damaged", sometimes it can still play on a PC, but a portable player may be more sensiti've to this and won't play it. Do you have to skip any songs to play it's Can you try ripping a new album from a CD, and trying to play that (random, in a loop)?
It may help to reload or update the firmware, in case there is a small glitch. Also run the Clean Up in Recovery Mode.

Zen Vision M Explorer won't import fi

I have the Zen Vision Media Explorer loaded on two Win XP Home computers. I upgraded both to WMP . I was having trouble syncing some audio files to another mp3 player on my main computer, so I rolled WMP back to version 9. Ever since then the import wizard doesn't work. It says it's transferring files, but it just sits there. There's nothing wrong with the player, as I can transfer files using the other computer. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Zen Vision M Explorer, but it still won't?import files. How do I fix this?

I was able to solve this myself, and I will go through the solution in case anyone else has this problem. Reinstalling the Zen Vision Explorer software with no result indicated to me that there was something else causing the problem. I discovered that simply uninstalling WMP via Add/Remove Programs (i.e., rolling the player back to the earlier version) isnt enough, although at this point WMP 9 seemed to function properly. According to a Microsoft KB article Readme for Windows Media Player for Windows XP, rolling the player back also requires removing two more files from Add/Remove Programs, Windows Media Format Runtime and Microsoft User-Mode Driver Framework Feature Pack .0.0. (Now doing these last two uninstalls also messes up WMPs DRM component, so that certain wma files wont play, in my case digital books. I had to find a security component upgrade for WMP 9 on Microsofts website and run it to get WMP fully functioning again.) Before I made any of these changes I had uninstalled the Zen Vision Explorer. I now reinstalled it, the result being, the import wizard works again.
