Little Problem With Zen Mi

Just after I finish ripping a cd onto my Z.M., I check to see if the songs I uploaded r actually there, and the "back" button doesnt work very well. All the other buttons work fine but that is just a bit harder to press. after a bit it gets better and better until theres no problem anymore.....can any help?

I think the touchpad is not sensiti've cause that time the first time i bought my zen, I had this problem. The back button have to press very hard although my touchpad sensitivity was set to HIGH.
Maybe you can compare your zen with your friend's zen and see if their touchpad is so hard to press? If not maybe you can go down to the service centre(Jurong) to repair it's

Random Problems with Zen Micro? Try a diff. USB cable

I know people have mentioned this in other posts, but I thought I would reiterate it here. Many people seem to be complaining that their player is not recognized, or only sometimes recognized, or recognized by Windows (as a USB device) but not by their Creative software, or songs won't transfer, etc. Well, I had some similar problems which ALL went away when I started using a different USB cable - the one that shipped with the Micro just doesn't seem to work consistently.
So, if you are having problems with your player that you can't seem to solve any other way, you may want to try a different USB cable. It worked for me.
Hope this helps - I am (now) loving my new Micro!

I tried a different USB cable also, I thought that it would help, but I still got the same problems. I can almost guarantee that although you think you may have solved your issues, they WILL come back.
I've also been experiencing the "Player Not Connected" problem with my Zen Micro.
I've also had the problem where the Zen Micro just freezes in the "Docked" screen even after it has been disconnected from the PC
I've noticed that these are common problems with Zen Micros with the new firmware (.0.03)
My old Zen Micro with the old, original firmware did NOT have this connectivity problem
Creative should investigate these issues associated with this new firmware, or maybe even making the old firmware available for download to see if this really is the source of all these problems.

Little problem with Strings.

          I have an little problem with Strings, i make one comparision like this.
          String nombre="Javier";
          if( nombre.equalsIgnoreCase(output.getStringValue("CN_NOMBRESf",null)) )
          Wich output.getStringValue("CN_NOMBRESf",null) is "Javier" too, because I display
          this before and are equals.
          What I do wrong?.


You are actually making your users key in things like
"\026"? Not very user-friendly, I would say. But
assuming that is the best way for you to get your
input, or if it's just you doing the input, the way to
change that 4-character string into the single
character that Java represents by '\026', you would
use a bit of code like this:char encoded =
(char)Integer.parseInt(substring(inputString, 1),
16);
DrClap has the right idea, except '\026' is octal, not hex. So change the radix from 16 to 8. Unicode is usually represented like '\u002A'. So it looks like you want:String s = "\\077";
System.out.println((char)Integer.parseInt(s.substring(1), 8));Now all you have to do is parse through the String and replace them, which I think shouldn't be too hard for you now :)

Problems With Zen Touch Turn

After just recently purchasing a Zen Touch in December 2005, I already have problems with it.
I have never dropped it or hit it. I plugged it in to re-charge one day after using it and when it was done charging I turned it on, used it for 5 minutes then set it down. The next morning I went to turn it on to use it, and it wouldn't turn on. The blue light at the side on the power button was on, but the screen just wouldn't show up. Now the blue light won't turn off. I have read about these problems with Zen Micro freezing up and read about Zen Touch freezing up back in 2004 when it was released. I have phoned the number but couldn't seem to get through. Should I consider taking it in? Or is there an easier way?

Have you tried resetting it's Connect to the mains adapter and press the tiny recessed button on the side of the player. Don't use anything sharp to press it, a bent paper clip is best.

Little Problem with Photoshop CS3

Hi, I have a little problem with Photoshop CS3, I'm not sure if this's because a Windows option that I messed up, but the thing is that I didn't touch any options, or some kind of preferences.
I'm talking about the "little windows" (I don't know the correct name) that come from, in this case, the Filter and Analysis options, they're coming down from their right side, and usually, the come down from their left side. This is really annoying.
Not big deal, but I can't really work properly. I hope you guys can help me, and this's my first post, I hope I didn't break any rule.

Thanks Mylenium, that was the problem, I don't even have a tablet, but that fixed my problem =)
Thanks again.

I have the same problem. It all started yesterday when I was installing the cd drivers in my new computer. I have searched numerous forums and some people had to return the product. Please admins help on this issue as I understand it is very serious.

Problem with Zen Xt

I purchased a refurbished Zen Xtra back in May and had the player lock up on several occasions. It would eventually resolve if I let the batteries drain and then recharge. The last time it happened I came to these forums and learned how to enter recovery mode. I tried to do a firmware update which failed and now the player will only boot into recovery mode. When I attempt to do the firmware update I get the message player not connected. I can see the player connected in windows and can actuall browse the HD which is obviously now empty. How can this be resolved?

Re: Problem with ZEN MX >FYes, it's true. Creative Centrale is full of **bleep**.:robotmad: You can use it only to one thing. To convert films from your computer to their stupid format called "cmv". But even with this it's stil the same problem. This is crap, because sometimes you can do it, but sometimes not. Beside of this Creative Centrale doesn't have any good functions. For further users - don't install Creative Centrale! You will have more free space and do all things (without moving films to watch on your player) just from your computer and not this **bleep**.

A little problem with color profiles

I am trying LR and so far I love it, it has successfully replaced RSP for me, and also beat Bibble which I briefly considered but didn't like due to the weird UI.
However, I have a little problem with colours, which has never happened so far with other converters, and I am hoping you can help me to solve it.
My monitor is calibrated with the Spyder and the appropriate profile loaded in the video card.
When I work on a RAW image in LR, and then export a sRGB JPG, and then open it with a browser, or the Win viewer, I see it redder. If I open the image in Faststone, I see it almost sepia.
If I export a TIFF and open it in PS, I see it as in LR, but when I export a JPG from PS (this is my typical workflow), the resulting image has the same problem.
Considering that my entire workflow is in sRGB, can anybody coach me as to the correct settings I must use in order to obtain a final sRGB image with the same colors as in LR? I think that I must be doing something wrong, as the program behaves consistently with PS.
Thank you in advance for any help you will be able to provide.

Funny how it's only Windows users that have this 'problem'.
This is not a 'problem' at all. The only 'problem' here is that you've been used to using non-color-managed applications. Suddenly, Lightroom comes in as a mature, color-managed, program... and you're all going bonkers.
Mac users aren't going bonkers because we're used to using color-managed applications (Preview, Safari, etc. are all color-managed on a Mac).
Let me clarify for you that by 'color-managed', I mean that the software is *not only* reading the embedded profile in your image, but is *also* converting, on-the-fly, the RGB values of that image to a new set of RGB values that compensates for the native response of your monitor. Say, for example, your monitor only displays a narrow gamut of reds. Chances are, then, that LR or PS will intelligently compensate for this by saturating reds before sending to your monitor. This is how color management works. You can now imagine the disastrous effects that a bad/inaccurate monitor profile might have...
Your Windows applications, such as 'Viewer', use the Microsoft ICM 2.0 API. This *will* read the embedded profile in an image, but instead of converting to your monitor profile for output, will simply convert to sRGB. That's basically like half-a$$ color-management. Read more about it here:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/reskit/prork/prdn_img_vkev.ms px?mfr=true
Firefox & IE don't even use the ICM 2.9 API, making them entirely non-color-managed. Whatever the raw RGB values are in your image, these applications spit out at your monitor.
It's very important you understand these simple concepts before proceeding any further.
OK, ready?
The original monitor profile that came with my MacBook Pro (profiled by someone over at Apple generically for all MacBook Pro LCDs, I guess) really seems to have underestimated the gamut of my monitor. Hence, color-managed applications compensated for this be resaturating my images (especially in the oranges/reds) before outputting to monitor. Therefore, images looked really nice and saturated in color-managed applications; however, when I exported them to sRGB JPEGs and then uploaded to the web, they looked desaturated (in Firefox, NOT in Safari, since Safari is color managed). They even looked desaturated on other people's monitors (these 'other people' were your average Joes...).
I then profiled my monitor using an i1 colorimeter. A 3-D plot of my monitor profile now showed that it actually had a much larger gamut than what Apple had predicted in their profile (but this gamut was still much smaller than sRGB, or the gamut of my Dell LCD or Sony CRT, etc.). Therefore, now, LR and PS, using this new profile, showed images much less saturated. Now when I made my edits, and then exported to sRGB JPEGs, images looked slightly *more* saturated in non-color-managed applications and on other people's computers.
So, you see, your monitor profile affects how you make adjustments/edits in color-managed programs. If your hardware profiler profiled your monitor incorrectly (which I assume is the problem here), then you may be over-saturating certain colors within LR, skewing those RGB values so that a non-color-managed program, which will not re-correct these values as LR is doing, will display the image with too much, say, red.
Bad monitor profiling also explains why you see this problem only on certain images/colors... if it were a LR problem, you'd most likely see it on every export. The color variance is more than likely due to a bad monitor profile that is not accurately describing your monitor's native response... hence LR/PS are incorrectly adjusting your images before sending to the monitor.
And at this point, please don't resort to saying "but the colors in the web browser look 'right' and LR looks 'wrong'". This statement has no meaning, as what looks 'right' to you in your web browser might look horrible to someone else with a different monitor. The point of color-management is to minimize these differences. For example, I was very unhappy by how desaturated my images looked on the web compared to in PS before I calibrated my monitor. Now, images look slightly *more* saturated on the web than in LR/PS, which I'm OK with. *Should* they look the same? Heck no. Similar? Yes. Is it better if they do look the same after hardware profiling? Yes, if your main goal is web export, but, keep in mind, the only way they *would* look the same after PROPER hardware profiling would be if your monitor happened to have a very sRGB-like response (to explain this would take another few paragraphs... but you should be able to figure it out if you ponder a bit).
I hope this is making sense. Let me ask you a couple questions now:
1.) For your headshot image, IMG_8860, which colors look 'right' to you -- the colors in LR, or the colors upon export (i.e. the headshot on the left or the right in your link above)?
2.) How exactly did your profile your monitor? Was it in the dark? I had quite a bit of variance in my monitor profile depending on whether or not the Mac OS X dock was visible at the bottom of the screen -- the light from the dock leaked into the colorimeter which then led to profiles that generated yellow/green color casts.

Power and Sync problems with Zen Vision:M

)Power and Sync problems with Zen Vision:MX Lately, my Vision M is having problems that when I plug it into the USB port on any PC to charge it, it lights up for a moment and then goes blank.
When I unplug it and reseat the usb cable, nothing happens. When I try to turn it on, it's dead. This happens even though it's not fully depleted of battery energy.
Pressing the reset button does not do anything. The only thing that I've found that will work is to open it up and unplug the battery. But even that is starting to not work.
This doesn't happen every time I use it, but it is happening quite a bit. It's gotten to the point today that I can't even charge the battery at all.
Any suggestions? I don't think it's the battery, as it does charge when I don't have these issues, but I'm not really positi've of that either.

The connector on the motherboard check it . It may need to be resoldered. The last time I ran into those symptoms that was the solution.

Problem with ZEN Style M300

When I trying to found bluetooth audio devices with ZEN Style M300,? the player get to freeze after a little bit time that is searching devices, and so I have to push the reset button for using again the player. :mansurprised:Anyone have the same problem?

I have a similar problem. It recognized and paired with a Sony Ericsson MW600 Hi-Fi Bluetooth Stereo Headset once. I lost connection, could no longer connect, and tried to re-pair it. Now it recognizes the the headset's name (MW600), but when you try to pair with it stays on a "Please wait..." message. It will stay that way forever until I press the back (left) arrow. Then the message says "Remote Device not responding" and pairing fails. This MW600 headset pairs with other devices (cell phone, PC) just fine, though, so it's not malfunctioning.
I suspect this might be a Bluetooth version compatibility issue? I say that because when I connect to a Jawbone Era (pretty new device, probably latest Bluetooth spec), everything goes fine.
Also, if I clear all devices, then try to pair to just the Sony Ericsson MW600, I can get the M300 in a state where it hangs and will not respond to anything. I then have to press the reset button using a paperclip to start over.

Two problems with Zen Vision: M

Hi all. I'll give my player's specs before describing the problem(s):Zen Vision: M 30 GBVersion .40.02 Anyway, I've had my Zen for about 4 months now, and up until now, it's worked perfectly. Recently, for the first time, it froze on me. I figure it was because I was shuffling through songs on random too quickly, as I see other people have had this problem too. So I reset the player, but it only rebuilt halfway; on the "Rebuilding" screen, the green line stops about halfway through. Now, whereas I once had about 2600 songs I'm down to a little over 000. I didn't think it was that big of a problem; I've either got all my songs backed up on my computer or CD. But when I connected the Zen to my computer, my computer couldn't read the device. Sort of, that is. My Zen can still charge through my computer and when I plug it into the computer, a message will pop up asking me what I'd like to do with the MP3 device. However, when I go to Zen Vision: M Series Media Explorer, I get the message "Your player is not connected. Please connect your Zen Vision: M Series to the computer." I went through the FAQ at the top of the message board and tried basically every solution outside of trying the Zen on another computer. I'm thinking it's a problem with the player, not my computer. It still acts erratically at times- like, if I leave it off for an extended amount of time and turn it on, it'll go into rebuilding mode. Other than that, though, it's fine. Could the hard dri've be corrupted Any help would be appreciated.

Sync Problem with Zen 8GB ¬____

Okay, so I bought my zen, then after some issues that have been delt with and a replacement later, I finnally got a zen that worked, and hav been using it for about a month now.
im very happy with it, but i hav been having the most annoying problem with it. basically i did the big NO NO of connecting the player BEFORE installing it with the CD, so Vista has installed it, i think but without the right software to do so.
so now, everytime i connect it to the computer, even after installing the CD, all it does is charge, it does not dock. after hours of stress and hair pulling, i finally found how to get it to dock.
I go to device manager and uninstall the creative zen, then take out the USB, then put it back in.
this allows me to go into dock mode, but a little vista bubble in the corner says it is installing new hardware (the zen) and after about 5 seconds, the zen is back in device manager after a "successful installation", and it once again becomes undocked untill I uninstall and repeat.
If i go to propeties of the creative zen it says "This device cannot start. (Code 0)" is that is any help.
its so annoying and stressful, having to drag 3 songs on at a time, and i cant create any playlists or do anything much other than charge the player.
so i beg of anyone who knows the cure to this problem, please help i cant see any topics for this specific problem, and none of the FAQs help ?____?
sorry for the grammer and stuffs, its 5am and im abit tierd lol thanks in advance for any help

Do you have Service Pack installed on the Computer? Did you try to have Windows update the driver for it's? Do you have another usb cord for the device you can use as the cord could be bad. I would try a new cord before I did anything else to my computer. Take player to the store with you when purchasing so you know that it's the right one. They're not very expsensi've(under $0.00 U.S.) You may try system restore to a time befroe you started using the Zen. BE ADVISED THAT WILL DELETE ALL FILES,PROGRAMS,WINDOWS UPDATES ECT, that where installed after the restore date. Have you formatted the playe? That too will erase all files on the Zen. I would try the format on the player first before a system restore.

Problems With Zen To

Help!:smileysurprised:
I'm going to email the creative people. I have had problems with my zen touch, I've only had it for 2 months. I had to reboot yesterday because it didn't want to turn on or off, it just had the light switch on with no screen information, it was pretty frozen. I rebooted it and connected it to my computer and it fine again but then it seemed like it was fighting to play music or be docked. Once it's docked, it fights and starts playing music again. I just got the smaller version, MUVO 52mb on my computer also. I wonder if it's because I have both drivers on there?
This is the second time this is happening. The first time, my zen touch was going crazy, and the volume and clicker didn't work. I updated it with the firmware and it got fixed. I just wonder, if I just have a messed up crazy, mp3 player? I should return it.

If this is the second time I would say that it's probably just something odd that happened and caused the Touch to go a little crazy, just some anomalous behaviour. As you already have the latest firmware you could try running a disk cleanup. To access the Rescue Mode hold down the play button and KEEP it held down, press the tiny reset switch once, and KEEP the play button held down until the player boots into the Rescue Mode. Choose Disk Cleanup from the menu. Note: Disk cleanup should not remove your tracks. It searches through the disk for files and rebuilds the index, and can be useful for correcting any strange behaviour.
If the behaviour continues then I would consider contacting support to get it replaced.
I doubt drivers can be the issue as assuming you're not using Win 98 SE, the MuVo doesn't use any of Creative's drivers (and they wouldn't be related really to the Touch driver anyway). It might be there is some more general USB issue with this PC though.
