MediaSource not connected to pla

How do I transfer newly created playlists and songs from my Mediasource to my Zen Touch? I do not see my Zen anywhere within the Mediasource screen.

i have the same problem. i posted it in general and i said this
so i upgraded everything MTP and firmware so i can use my zen xtra with my xbox 360. well i lost all my music(i dont mind and i was expecting it) but now it uses WMP as a default way to transfer the files over. for some reason i hate WMP and when i make a playlist and send it over...it never saves the playlist on my zen and just puts it in the library. i was use to the Media source cuz i use to make the playlist and just drag them over which was really easy. is there a way to use the media source again, if so how because it wont recognize my player. if not, can anyone give me instructions on how to successfully transfer over a playlist that will save as that playlist on my zen using WMP. thanks alot guysbut the guy said to dl the latest media source and have the plugin for it. well i did and i still dont see my player in the mediasource window. hopefully someone can help us out

Help! My Zen Micro is detected but not connected to zen media explorer & mediasou

Hi
recently i just bought a creative zen micro at 5 GB. after installing all the drivers and programs using the installation CD that came with my player, I connected my player through the USB cable to my pc USB root hub.
an auto-detect of my zen micro window pops up at the righthand corner, prompting me to click 'organize' in the creative media source. clicking the organize option, mediasource program starts but while it is loading the music library, an error message: CTCMS, The program has performed a illegal operation......etc.
i tried disconnecting my player followed by opening the media source prog and connecting my player after that. another error message: file operation failed. please ensure that your player is properly connected.
I'm using windows 98 SE on an AMD processor. i was able to use the removable disk mode of my player to store data from pc. However when comes to the media mode of my player, it is shown as not connected status in the zen micro media explorer and in the creative media source program, it's either shown as not properly connected or illegal operation when loading music library from my player. in addition, under the device manager, the creative zen micro driver is shown as working properly. i was also able to upgrade my firm ware to version .02.05. using my pc to connect to my player. However, even before upgrading the firmware, this problem is already present. i have contacted the creative technical support helpdesk for advise on this issue and they have suggested to me various solutions such as checking my drivers if they are updated, reinstalling the drivers and software applications for the media library, installing jet engine service pack for my windows and the MDAC component but still nothing works.
anyone have any suggestions? pls help
thanks

Hi,
Sorry I can't help you. I just wanted to let you know I have the same exact problem. It started three days ago and I've been going back and forth with creative support and nothing has worked. I am beginning to grow really distressed. I feel a little better now because after seeing that it's happening with someone else, it is most likely not the player. I am running windows 98 SE as well. I also have an AMD Duron processor. I have a new computer on the way with windows XP I really hope it works. But now I have a new problem. I listed it on the front page of this forum a few minutes ago. My player froze and now only boots up in rescue mode. I am getting so frustrated with my player. If you figure anything out will you be as kind as to send me a message on how you got your player working again? I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
Nick

I need to install application and driver for Nomad IIc but computer says I'm not connect

I tried downloading the application, driver, and plug-in for Nomad IIc. When I try to install the driver my computer says my player is not connected but my player says it is connected. Help!

Bfd96
Did you download the correct driver and appllication?
Check that you have the following files.
. Driver - Drv_nm2.exe
2. MediaSource application - CMS_PCAPP_LB_2_03_29.exe
3. Nomad Pack - CMS_N2Plugins__00_0.exe
Do not connect the player when installing the driver. You will be prompted to connect the player when the installation is near to completion.
After which, install the MediaSource application follow by the Nomad Pack.

Help with Zen Xtra not connect

Hi,
I have read all of the FAQs and posts reguarding this problem and I just can't seem to get this to work. I have a Creative Labs Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra 40GB mp3 player. I downloaded and installed the playsforsure firmware yesterday so the mp3 player would be compatible with my Xbox 360. I moved all of my songs from the player to the Creative Mediasource PC music library before the install (sadly, I lost all of the music the Zen cam with). Well, after I installed this firmware, and I plug the Zen Xtra into the computer with the USB cable, it doesn't register that it is connected. For example, when I open the Creative Mediasource PC music library it doesnt have the Zen Xtra listed like it used to, so I cannot put any files back onto the mp3 player, also the Nomad explorer has the Zen listed as "not connected" and same with the Zen Xtra Media Explorer. I then downloaded a new playsforsure plugin for Creative media source and the most updated driver. Still noting... I tried going into device manager, it recognizes the portable media device without any problem, so its not the USB or the computer, its that its not connecting with Creative Media Source, Nomad Explorer or Zen Xtra Media Explorer. I clicked the driver, followed all those steps that were listed in one of the posts on this forum and installed the MTP device. It actually connected this time and I started moving my music back onto the player. Well, I accidently "x'ed" out the program and I went to Creative Media Source again but its not registering the device again. I retried instaling the MTP device again and it didn't work this time. I restarted the computer and tried again but I cannot get this Zen connected anymore. I have never, ever had a problem like this before with my Zen until I got this firmware. Please, if anyone knows what I am doing wrong, please help. Thanks.

I believe you are not holding it down long enough----- I think in the manual it says to hold it down until rescue mode comes up..... it took a long tome for mine to come up when i did it
If holding it longer doesnt help, thats all i got

Zen Micro Connection "the device is not connect

When I connect my Zen Micro in my computer the Zen Micro Media Explorer says that "the device is not connected. Please connect your Zen Micro to the computer" My battery is full. I read the instruction book and It said when you connect the Zen Micro in, Creative MediaSource or Windows Media Player starts up automatically... but nothing happens when I connect my Zen Micro. Please help.

Hey, i have this same problem...well i did...im not sure :smileyindifferent:
At first i followed the instructions on how to install the mp3 (micro) etc etc, i followed it to perfection. When it came to using the software on the disc, i found alot of problems, mainly that my Micro "apparently" was not connected, according to my Creative Media Source/Organiser etc.
Anyway, after i downloaded loads of different updates etc, and basically fiddled about, i got WMP to recognise it!! BREAK THROUGH!!
Alot of other ppl i know have had this same trouble as i and as loads of you are, so i would recommend using WMP, works fine, only downfall is I DON'T KNOW HOW TO MAKE PLAYLISTS :angry:
As fussy as i am, this isn't good enough for me, i want the software to recognise it so i can take full advantage of my new Micro.
So, i need advice, shall i quit while im ahead, or will someone gve me some help to resolve this problem?
And if the later, what the hell shall i do?

Zen Micro firmware update, but can't backup files b/c "player is not connect

I want to update the firmware on my Zen Micro 5GB so I can put new songs on it through Creative Mediasource, but the computer won't read the device---all i get is the error message "player not connected." I opened up the firmware download, however, and i am able to install it on the player (somehow now the computer seems to know the player is there--the zen micro responds to the update), but it warns to backup all files as they will be lost in the update. I cannot backup my songs to the computer because it won't recognize the player as connected! What the heck can i do to backup my files?

what in the world? i unplugged my zen micro from the USB port as i was giving up for the night trying to make it work, when i decided to try it one last time. all of a sudden creative mediasource popped up from the minimize and it read my player like normal. very strange...

What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
You may need to go back and start over. Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

ITunes could not connect to the iTunes Store "Error Message"

I recently added iTunes 7.6 to my Windows XP operating system at the same time when I added an *Ion USB Turntable (TTUSB).* I currently have the 80G iPod with the larger video screen. I added in the supplied software of the EZ Vinyl Converter. The software reads from Gracenote and imports into iTunes okay. But now my PC cannot access the iTunes store to buy songs, read the tracks on the discs, or display new album artwork. The diagnostic read the network connectivety test, the CD/DVD drive, and iPod connectivity tests all read okay. I followed the directions on checking the network settings under the Internet Options Tool "Connections" Lan Settings and the Automatic detection and still no dice. All I get is "Make sure your network is active."
Can anybody help out their?

I'm seeing this error on some, but not all, of my Windows XP machines. On my personal development XP box, I see this error if iTunes is closed when I try and access iTunes U via my transfer script or Stanford's.
"iTunes could not connect to the Music Store. The network connection was terminated unexpectedly. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
The errors occured in IE 7 Beta, Firefox 1.5.x, and Firefox 2 Beta. In each case, iTunes U loaded after I clicked the 'ok' button in iTunes. I did notice that in Firefox's case an additional pop-up window appeared that asked whether or not I had iTunes; when I selected that I do have itunes, it transfered me to iTunes but generated the error.
After getting these errors on my Windows XP machine, I tried it on two different lab machines running Windows XP, and didn't get the error message once -- I tried it in IE 6, Firefox 1.0.x and Firefox 1.5.x and they all worked. It even worked with IE 7 Beta and Vista Beta.
Based on this, I think the problem must lie in how Windows registered iTunes, and the handshake just isn't happening properly.

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

I need to upgrade my 10.5.1 os on my G4/1.25 (I'm having some audio-midi setup problems), but it's a machine that is not connected to the internet. Do I have any options? Thanks!

Friends,
I'm having some audio-midi setup problems on my G4/1.25/10.5.1 machine. I'm thinking that a routine OS upgrade might help. However, this machine is not connected to the internet. Are there any alternate methods for upgrading system software? Thanks in advance!

OK, what you should do is download the updates on another machine and burn them to a disc. Start at this link http://support.apple.com/downloads/#leopard for downloads and find, among other things, the 10.5.8 combo updater that works on PPC machines, plus security, QuickTime and other updates. Going from 10.5.1 to 10.5.8, there will probably be a bunch of things that you should install. Being off the internet with the machine, you can't have Software Update sort it out, so something might get missed, unfortunately.
My suggestion is this: if it looks like you might need a download, get it onto that disc.

Win 7 Pro not connecting to remote Win 7 pro via port 3389

I have a new Dell XPS 8700 Win Pro 64 bit that will not connect to work machine of same specs, i.e, XPS 8700 Win 7 Pro. Ironically an old lap top running XP Pro
will connect to work computer. I have a new Dell laptop with Win 8.1 pro that will not connect either. I tried everything, uninstalled Symantec End point, shut off the Windows Firewall, did a complete
hardware check via Dell Diagnostics, made sure network discovery was on as well as all remote services, turned on RD, changed every setting on the RD dialog box, pinged the external IP and it timed out. None of the forums seem to have an answer and I
am at wits end. I set up 15 machines at work under Win 7 for RD and all are working with Win 7 Pro.

Hello Al Wayne,
What is your current situation?
Please share us more information for better analyzation as Frederik Long mentioned.
Do you mean that the Dell XPS 8700 and laptop can’t RDP to work Windows 7 machines, but the Windows XP laptop can RDP to?
Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
1. Share us the result of command ipconfig /all in the source and destination computers
2. Check if we can ping the Windows 7 machines from the Dell XPS 8700 and laptop

Error message "not connected to internet" when trying to sign in to BB id with Mac laptop

I have a Mac laptop and was forced to remove the original BB Link OS when the Z10 launched. I replaced the OS with the current one but now it doesn't allow me to use my Mac's computer name eg. John Smith's Mac book. I can only use a single name. I suspect that is why I'm not getting the itune's library to load. Also, I can't sign into my BB id, I get a message that says I'm not connected to the internet. I've taken the firewall off as I heard that was a solution with Windows but it didn't work. Any ideas?

i have the same problem. I have window 7 pc. I had to use internet to download link so i don't understand why it is not allowing me to use link or do set up. I uninstalled my previous bb desktop driver in hopes that would help. It didn't. I appreciate any help on this forum

Can not connect wireless through Bootcamp Windows XP to Timecapsule?

Any help would be appreciated.
I recently purchased an iMac with Leopard (10.5.2). Today, I used Bootcamp to install Windows XP with SP2. I created a FAT partition of 32 gigs and followed all of the steps (including installing drivers off of MAC OS installation disk 1 while on initial XP boot up).
My wireless network is on a Timecapsule and is "WPA Personal secured". The Mac OS detects the network and connects instantly, my work laptop PC detects the network and connects instantly. However, the newly installed XP detects the wireless network but will not connect. When I try to connect to the network, I receive an error message that basically states "unable to connect...". I do not even get to a screen that asks for me to enter a network key or password. When I try to connect to two other networks in the neighborhood, I at least get the network key screen.
I have gone into the Windows network tools and have tried to manually configure the connection, but I still get the same problem. I thought maybe I had "WPA2 Personal" enabled as the security setting for the network (XP does not support WPA2 out of the box) , but I have it as "WPA Personal".
Can't figure it out. I am new to Macs (about 1 month). The reason I switched was because I could run both Leopard and XP.
Best regards,

Solved my own problem.
FYI
Even though my security settings on my Timecapsule are listed as "WPA Personal", my work PC Laptop kept detecting as "WPA2 Personal". I even removed all security settings from the Timecapsule and my laptop still detected as "WPA2".
I know that XP does not support WPA2 out of the box.
I hooked directly into the Timecapsule via an ethernet cable while in Windows environment. Thankfully, I was able to access the internet. I went to Microsoft and did a search for WPA2 patches for XP. Found one that allows XP wireless connection to WPA2. I installed the patch and was able to detect and connect wirelessly to Timecapsule from XP.
After two days, I have come to the firm believe (don't know the technical reasons why) that Timecapsule is a WPA2 device and that the XP patch is the only way to create initial connectivity. It is sort of ironic that although I wanted to connect wirelessly, I had to first connect via an ethernet hard connection.
Solve one problem, left with another. I have a Epson all-in-one scanner, printer, copier hooked to the Timecapsule. My iMac picks it up fine wirelessly but I am getting nothing on XP. Hopefully it is a simple driver download issue.

Can not connect outside of Lan to with rtsp PVC2300

I have the following cameras set up at my office
1 - PVC2300
2 - WVC54GC
3 - AXIS 225FD
I have a BEFSR81 Router
I have a computer on Windows XP running the surv software to record. Everything with that is good.
I also have 2 desktops.
I have been playing around with the rtsp feed with the pvc2300, but have run into a few problems.
1(a). I can not connect outside of the LAN with RTSP with either the VLC player or quicktime. It connects and asks for a password and then just hangs.
The PVC 2300 local address is 192.168.1.102 with ports 554, 5000-5010, and 6970-6999 forwarded on the router. What am I missing?
1(b) I can successfully connect with my blackberry bold, although when I try to change the default port (554) to something else (I would like to RTSP my the AXIS camera as well, so I will need a different port) it connects on my bold, but then says server is unresponsive. What am I missing here?
2. The voice with the PVC 2300 using http outside of the LAN (internet) lags quite baddly and is choppy. This happens without fail when I have all 4 cameras running, which I understand is upload bandwidth problem. But it also happens when I connect to just the PVC2300. I do have a connection to all 4 cameras inside the LAN to the XP running the surv software, but that is it. Is the my router acting buggy? I have unplugged the router for 5 sec, and it fixed it for a while, but it always comes back. I have donwloaded the latest firmware for the router and PVC 2300 and that didnt seem ot fix it either. Suggestions?
3. This is more of a question. I know the mobile streaming of the PVC 2300 does not include voice. Is there an app or way that I can just get it to my Blackberry. Even if I didnt get the video, voice is sometimes more important to me.
I hope Ive been clear enough in my description, Im very self taught (google is amazing), but I am in no way a techy.
Thank you in advace for your help.
Colin

Glad to hear you are successfully using the SWVMS16. That program is really cool and useful. I just cant tell you how that model of Linksys Router can work for you here (that is not a model we support on this community as its not small business)
Regarding RTSP access, are you also including the mobile.sdp in the URL?
RTSP:///mobile.sdp I noticed in the camera GUI with the newer firmware, you can specify an access code under mobile settings after checking the enable mobile streaming box. That word may be what you have to include, so check that too...
Try this locally first and then remotely is the easiest way to see if you got it right, then it just becomes a routing or firewall issue to figure out.
But your forwarded ports look right and should be opened.
Under advanced settings, you can define an alternate HTTP, HTTPS or RTSP port
