  • Unusual start up problem - Zen Nomad freez

    Hi, dont know if anyone can help me.
    I have a Creative Zen Nomad and have not used it for about 5 months. Anyway, I decided today to see what MP3's I had left on it, and as the battery was flat I started recharging it.
    So, there I was waiting for it to recharge, and it showed the initial startup Creative message with the Copyright and All Rights Reserved page etc. But for some reason it just freezes on this page and I cannot get into the proper menu. I tried to reset using the reset+pause button, but it just resets and goes staight back to the Creative front page again, and freezes.
    Anyone know what this problem could be? Will it help if I take out the battery out for a while? Is it because I have not used it for such a long time? The machine has been sitting on a shelf all this time so I know it hasnt been dropped or anything.. I didnt hear the hard dri've spinning, but I thought that this may be because perhaps it only kicks in when it gets past the first screen?
    Yours,
    Mystified!!
    Hope someone may be able to help me......

    John,
    It chimes, then the screen lights up a very bright blue for about 3 seconds,
    So that's a good sign that the flyback is good. But also that there's a problem with the HV drive circuits.
    I also tried putting in the logic board from another machine (which is broken itself, so I cannot say if this logic board is ok) & it behaved just the same.
    I've worked on about 85 CRT slot iMacs and have yet to see a bad logic board.
    summer 2001 600mHz Kiva, which has power but doesnt even chime.
    When you say power does the screen light up?
    I got a reading of 1.9v instead of 3.3v at pin 14 of the logic board/down converter connector.
    The current theory on how the down converter works (since no one has seen a schematic) is that it receives a +- AC voltage from the PAV board and converts it (down) to logic board voltage. Again I've never seen a bad down converter it's always the PAV board. I have repaired these but only by replacing the flyback
    I've heard the high voltage capacitors go bad. (orange ones near the flyback) also I suspect that there are electolytics that go bad. I'm working on one right now showing HV problem symptoms.
    Oh and also try the inversion startup method. Try starting it up up side down. I also give it a good shake and bump. I have seen bad soldering on about 4 flybacks starting it upside down puts pressure on the solder joints and they conduct correctly. Another one I'm also working on shows this symptom.
    Do you have take apart instructions? Sounds like it.

  • Zen Nomad earphone jac

    I bought a Zen Nomad 40gig mp3 player. The earphone jack went bad. Yes there is definitely a problem with the earphone jacks. I was able to get it fixed at a friends high end electronic shop. I was told that the wirering to the jack was extremely small and would probably not last very long. They had to use a magnifying glass to find the loose wire and effect the repair. The jack eventually out completely. I made the mistake of buying another one since I liked the format and needed one to get me home on the bus. LA's busses are not pretty. After again spending many hours loading my music I was up and running again. Then the balance went out. There is no way to adjust the balance. I believe this problem is also due to the earphone jack. The very fact that they post on thier web site that there are no problems with the earphone jack that they know of shows that other people have had this problem too. Now I'm going to get an iPod.

    Creative have never posted to say there aren't problems. You must have a Zen Xtra, which Creative in fact admitted had a design fault which was rectified on newer models.

  • Creative Zen Nomad 40gig Prob

    Hello
    I'm a newbie here - Can anyone help me with a problem with my much loved Zen Nomad. It has suddenly crashed & gone into "Rescue Mode" but will not do anything else. The player is fully loaded with a lot of stuff that I can't replace or has sentimental associations?and I am going mental at the thought that I might have lost it - Is there any way I can recover the disc contents ?

    Hi,
    Try selecting the Clean Up and Reboot options. This does not affect the files in the player.

  • Zen Nomad Jukebox: Won't charge after sitting

    My daughters 30G Zen Nomad Jukebox Xtra sat, with the battery in, for about 3 months after she lost it due to low school grades.
    After she got her grades back up, I gave it back to her, and it won't charge at all now.
    ?The charger itself is fine (I checked the 5V with a multimeter), and the unit was charged and working when I took it from her 3 months ago, which is why I don't understand it. I did try the reset button with a paperclip. but it didn't help.
    When it's plugged into the charger, there's absolutly nothing on the screen indicating that its charging at all, when there should be an indicator light on it. HELP!!!!!!Shawn

    Well, tech support got back to me with the following instructions, that didn't help me at all, but I'm hoping it will help someone else, so I'm pasting it here.
    For my problem though, I still don't understand how a working player gets put into a desk drawer, and 3 months later, it comes out and won't turn on, even with the power adapter in and the battery out.
    Maybe its a magic desk.
    Any ideas.......anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
    Shawn
    :::::::::::The following is pasted from tech supports email to me:::::::::::
    With regards to your enquiries, I understand that you are having issues
    charging the Zen Xtra battery.
    May I know if you feel any warmth on the power adaptor while charging
    the battery for 5-30 mins?
    Please try the following:
    - Remove the battery from the player.
    - Power on the DC input connecting to the player. Power on the player
    without the battery in the player for 2 hours.
    - After 2 hours, place battery into the player (Check if it is charging)
    - If it is still unable to charge, remove the battery and place battery
    into the player again.
    - Repeat the following steps for at least 2 times.
    - If the charging indicator appears, charge the battery for 4 hours.
    Shall the issue persists, please test the player unit with another
    battery. Perharps your friends have a player of the same model? This is
    to determine if the issue is with the player or the battery.

    Hi all. I have a Creative Zen Nomad Jukebox 30GB.

  • Zen Nomad NX Play For Sure Patc

    Hello,
    I called Creative customer support and asked if the Zen Nomad Nx patch is going to be created. I was informed that this will occur. I wanted to ask the forum if this information if factual. Does anybody know when the patch may be released if the news is true?
    Thanks,
    Lance

    I really do not see why the NX should not be supported - is it not essentially the same player as the XTRA? I have owned both of them and there seem to be very few differencies between them...
    Do you know what the technological difference between them is? I would actually be very interested in knowing what it is...

  • Zen Nomad Xtra - firewi

    Can I connect a Zen Nomad Xtra using a firewire (394) connection/cable? It comes with a usb 2 cable that works on my usb PC, but, I'm thinking 394 might be faster.
    thnx

    Actually in practice USB2 is slightly faster than firewire (about 0% on average, but it depends on the system). Either way, the Zen Xtra doesn't support firewire.

  • Zen Nomad Jukebox NX hangs up during EAX load

    My Zen Nomad Jukebox NX hangs up during the loading of the EAX screen. I've looked trhough similar problems and solutions on this page without finding any aduquate solution proposal.
    I've tried doing the following:
    entered the rescue mode and tried to "clean up", when i do this nothing happens and i may contiue selecting the clean up option or select another. It doesn't seem to affect the player at all.
    I've also tried to select both "reload OS" and "Format all", both times the player gives a error message, "harddisk problem".
    Since the computer is unable to detect the semmingly not functionable player I can't find access my player.
    Solution?

    A "hard disk problem" error is a serious one, and clearly indicates something awry with the hard disk. You can try the advice here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net at your OWN RISK. If you don't want to try this or are under warranty then contact Creative Support.
    If you aren't under warranty you can contact Creative Support to see if they will repair it. If you want to try repairing it yourself, taking the risk the hard disk is at fault, then you can follow Rudi Cheow's excellent guide. There's also a thread here at the Zen Nomadness.net forum on compatible dri'ves, and the last page of Rudi's guide also has information on this.

  • Zen Nomad Xtra startup scr

    While playing around in Nomad Explorer I tried to set a color .bmp as a startup screen to see what it would look like. When starting up my Zen Nomad Xtra there is no change, however, when shutting down the screen is very distorted and pixelated. I went back into Nomad Explorer - change start up screen section and the file is not listed there. I also reset the settings on the Nomad itself, but, get the same ugly shut down. Any suggestions on how to get this to shut down without being so ugly?

    The screen must be 2 bit i.e. black and white / monochrome. Otherwise it will look awful.
    To reset back to the original screen use 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.

  • Tips on changing from Zen Nomad Jukebox Extra to Zen V Plu

    My new Zen V Plus is on its way to me. I am looking for any tips or advice on changing over from the Zen Nomad Jukebox. For instance, is it the same Mediasource program (I have ver. 2.03.29 now)? Will my songs and playlist be able to go over to the new device seamlessly? Ideally I'd like to connect both devices to my PC and then use Mediasource to transfer from the Jukebox to the V Plus, possible? Thanks in advance for any help.........

    Scheidhaus: I would hope that the aircraft isn't interfering with the player, and I honestly can't imagine it would. I have heard of one case before with a Nomad Jukebox that failed to work when the player was at altitude, along with another recent post here about this. All I can think is that the air pressure on the plane is a factor and is causing problems with the hard disk. Very strange though.
    Have you simply tried resetting the player when you have problems? You'll need to keep a paper clip with you for this, or borrow one from the cabin crew

  • Manual Zen agent removal

    I am trying to upgrade my Zen agent install from Zen 6.5sp2 agent to Zen
    7sp1 agent. There appears to be a problem with my current install of the Zen
    6.5 agent that prevents the install from automatically removing it pryor to
    the Zen 7 install. I have tried uninstalling the 6.5 agent manually through
    add/remove programs but the uninstall fails.
    My question is this....
    How do I remove the Zen 6.5 agent manually so that all traces are gone from
    my machine? Thanks...

    That tool doesn't remove zen-agent. It just can remove installer
    configuration for it. In order to really remove agent you should use
    msiexec /X package.msi or msiexec /X{package_GUID}. In Zen 6.5 case that
    would be MsiExec.exe /X{51E7C053-8ED5-4BB8-AEA7-69AECED4A282} (or
    something like that. Right line can be found in
    /HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Uninstall) .
    Cleaning installer configuration might help solving
    installation/uninstallation problems though, so if those above lines
    don't work, then use CleanUP utility and try again.

  • 40 gig and 60g Creative Zen Nomad probl

    I'm sure these are dead horses on the board but recently I've had two players cop out on me and of course the phone lines at creative don't offer any help, other than advising me to buy a new one of their products (no thanks). Here's the deal:
    <SPAN class=postbody>one freezes on building library screen and there is absolutely nothing i can do to get off that screen the other one just goes to the rescue mode after the eax screen and i can't do anything from there aside from rebooting.
