Micro Photo Driver H

My device manager is telling me I do not have the driver's installed for my Zen MicroPhoto, anyone know where I can get the drivers. I DO have all Creative software already loaded on the computer, so I am unsure of why it says to install drivers.

I found a way to fix the problem and it will write down what i've done:
Problem: My computer didn't recoginze my mp3 player, it was at the devices list but zen explorer didn't recognize it and got an error message that the driver wasn't compatible with the zen photo after the new hardware wizard was done.(mtp driver problem)
I tried my mp3 player on a few computers to make sure that the mp3 player wasn't damaged or bugged and they al worked on them. After the reply of futurepilot i checked those computers and they all had windows mediaplayer 0 as he told. So i started to rollback the medieplayer through software unistalling at configuration. But now success, it didn't take any effect. SO i downloaded system mechanican 6 trail version and that enabled me to delete windows mediaplayer (and rebooting)and windows mediaplayer runtime(and rebooting). Then i clicked on the windows mediaplayer icon, now i had windows mediaplayer 0. SO i thought it was over, but i had the same problem, only now he couldn't find any driver for my mp3 player. So i redownloaded the latest version of windows mediaplayer 0 and reinstalled it. After it was done, i connected my mp3 player and it worked without hvaing any problems.
I hope this could help some people

I was able to install them using the Device Manager.
Right-click on each of the devices that reference Option (com ports and so on). Select Update driver software and browse to the folder with the unzipped .inf files.
You probably tried this but I thought I'd post anyway for others who are looking for the topic.
Have a good one!

MICRO PHOTO/MICRO CONFLI

My laptop does not recognize my new MicroPhoto. I seem to recall reading here somewhere that you have to completely uninstall everything associated with the Micro and do a fresh install of all of the components on the Micro Photo CD. I am reluctant to remove Media Source because it is a pain to refill with a thousand tracks.
Device manager does not recognize the Micro Photos Driver. All cables ok and laptop works fine with Micro.
Any Ideas?

I am also having the exact same problem.My dad got it for my son for xmas, xmas day it froze at the building library part. Toay, just over a week later it is frozen on the logo screen, making an odd noise.Reading previous threads this may denote a HDD failure!!!I have also tried reboot, format all, reload firmware and clean up. Always stops there.On the Zenmicrophoto I have there is no reset button. Whilst simultaniously?holding the switch at the on position and inserting the battery gets you to the rebot etc screen. I have had enough of this but worse is that my Dad paid a fortune for this and my son is without his present. Ok I can send it back, blah, blah, blah but when you pay out good cash you expect it to work.Anyway, sorry to go on but if anyone else out there has any other possible solutions then that would be fantastic.:manmad:

Creative Zen Micro Photo 8GB Driver Problem XP USB

Xp couldnt find driver to install for Creative Zen micro photo 8gb. I have P4 Xp sp2 USB .. It works fine with other.
But when i connect zen Micro Photo 8GB it says "Unknow device creative zen micro photo" the player doesnt come with any driver.
can you Please help me?
Is it something to do with firmware?

Hi ted, can you tell me What is MTP device n wht its connection with WM0?please.. It will be a great help! ?
MTP is a protocol. For our purposes it means that the driver should be included with WMP0. (...and that is the connection, you get the driver by installing WMP0.)

Creative Zen Micro Photo with Windows 2000 Professio

Well, I purchased a micro photo about 5 days ago and am thrilled with the quality so far but i have old software on my computer due to its age and was wondering what software i need to run in order to transfer songs to my zen. I read the post above with all the drivers and it was just jibberish to me. I have wmp9 and would like to run it through that but my device isnt recognized. What download do i need to have in order for it to recognize my mp3 player?
Thanks,
ZachMessage Edited by yamaha4 on 0-0-2006 0:6 PM

Zach,
Have you try the legacy driver in this post before with WMP9? Although the Micro Photo player isn't listed in the list, other forum member has posted success with the driver so if you haven't try it yet might as well give it a try.

Having big problems with Creative Zen Micro Photo!! I need much urgent help!

Hi. I am having a big problem with my MP3 Creative Zen Micro Photo device at the computer.Here is the thing:Before I bought this I had the regular Zen Micro & having fun with it. I had no problems with that when I used the Media Explorer to transfer songs. So I bought the Zen Micro Photo & installed it my computer. As normal I used the Media Explorer to transfer songs & pictures.So I reinstalled Windows XP at my computer, and when I installed the CD that followed to transfer new songs, the Windows said that it's an unknown thing I have connected in the USB.So I installed Service Pack & 2. I have tried to install drivers from the cd but it seems that there are no drivers on the cd! The big problem is that when I connect the MP3 to the computer, it doesn't read it's a Zen Micro, it's just unknown! So the Zen Micro Photo Media Explorer program doesn't work & I can't transfer songs or picture on it! And it just happened after I re-installed Windows on my computer. The same thing happened on my brother's computer after he re-installed windows. And when I connect the MP3 to the USB, it says that it's not a USB 2.0, but .! And I am sure it is 2.0 because it has always been like that before I re-installed windows. Also the MP3 does not re-charge when I put it my computer! The battery is just the same, it tries to do it but it doesn't. So I am using my sisters computer to charge the MP3 & transfer songs. I have tried everything but I can't seem to understand what the problem is? I have never experienced something like this before, and I really hope you can help me with this! To be honest I think what I am missing is the driver. So can someone PLEASE provide me the link for the driver? I have downloaded all those 3 on www.creative.com, but they are none of them! Also that playforsure firmawre thingy does not work because it sais that I have to connect my MP3, and it is connected already!Please reply as quick as possible! Thanks a lot for you kind help!
I have also sent this mail to creative support! But please help me I have had this problem for almost 2 months now! =(Message Edited by anakwalajinn on 05-0-2006 08:47 PM

Zen Micro Photo: PC doesn't detect dev

I just bought two Zen Micro Photos. On my PC, I downloaded the latest driver without installing any of the software that comes with the device. I plugged it into my PC, and it detected it immediately. No problems.
On my wife's PC, I downloaded the latest driver and installed all of the software. The PC will recognize that a USB 2.0 device has been plugged in, but it will not recognize it as an MP3 player. I have searched these forums and tried various suggestions (like pointing the New Hardware wizard to C:\Program Files\Creative\Jukebox 3 Drivers), but everything turns out the same: the PC cannot install the hardware.
I plugged her Micro into my PC and it works as expected.
When plugged in, her Micro does *not* show the docked screen.
Both PCs are Windows XP SP2.
Can anyone help?

Nevermind, I found where to figure that out. Looks like her PC doesn' t have SP2.
I'm downloading it now, and I'll be back if I run into any more issues.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Zen Micro Photo not working with new XP SP2 install

Okay so my Zen Micro Photo stopped being recognised on my computer about ten months ago when I upgraded to WMP (for BBC iPlayer - it's compulsory to have it). Anyway I li'ved with this and have now got thoroughly sick of the same songs and nothing new so I have done a fresh install (on a brand new hard dri've) of Windows XP SP2 WMP9 with the sole intention of using this install/hard dri've?for the player. I used the original installation disk and it prompted me to upgrade to WMP0 as I installed everything. There were no errors during the install and I rebooted when prompted to.
When I attach the player it is recognised by the machine (task bar icon and correctly labelled in System > Hardware > Device Manager which reports it to be?working okay) but the Creative media software says "player not attached" when it is. It is not visible on My Computer as a dri've so I STILL have no access to the player. Player screen reports "docked" with a logo and is flashes a charging icon. Driver v5.2.0.0. The player plays fine but hasn't had new music on in almost a year
There is nothing else on the XP install (IE6 and everything - argh!) I did the registry permission tweak thing mentioned?here:?http://support.creative.com/kb/showa....aspx?sid=9287?but it didn't do anything.
Any help greatfully received!

Zen micro photo doesn't st

Hi,
when i started my zen micro photo the logo creative appear and the screen didn't change anymore. I Try to shut it down but all the button aren't responding. I plug it to my computer nothing change. Then I remove the batterie now the screen is black and I can't start it.
What should I do?

Hey everyone,
For some strange reason, my MP3 player refuses to recover the music that I had on there ( at least 900 tracks with a few photos ). I've gone to Recovery Mode and cleaned it up three times. The first two times ended with a reboot to make sure everything would go along swimmingly.
However, before, my ZEN decided to freeze up on me so I had no choice but to remove the battery and let it re-build the library. After that, the infuriating "Low Battery" sign went on ( even after I let it charge for literally *hours* on end, but that's another problem ). I'm thinking that had something to do with my problem.
But here's the strange part: when I plug it in into my computer, it recognizes it, and the same amount of MB is still remaining, meaning, there is something in there but it's doesn't show up.
Sounds like your database is corruptor the dri've itself is failing & you'll need to format the drive to be able to use the player. Unfortunately you won't be able to recover what's on the player. If you have the wallcharger use it to charge the battery. If that battery is the battery is more than 3yrs. old I would recommend purchasing a new one as the life span is about to that limit. The MicroPhoto will run off AC power without a battery.

Creative Zen Micro Photo Problem (Detecti

BEFORE I CONTINUE, REFERRING TO THE KNOWLEDGE BASE DOES NOT WORK FOR ME, I TRIED THE STEPS BUT THEY SIMPLY DON'T WORK.
HERE IS THE PROBLEM:
YESTERDAY, I RECEIVED MY ZEN MICRO PHOTO BLACK 8GB in the mail, and was able to get the charging started through my computer after installing the required software (mediasource, media player, wmp 9.5 codec, etc). Before I started the charging, I connected my player's USB cable to the back of my pc. Windows XP w/SP2 prompts that it 'found new hardware.' I go ahead and check in my computer if the player would be able to be accessed. I also confirmed with Creative's mediasource software, and it claims that 'no player was detected.' I did the same in windows media player 0, and says that no hardware was detected. I confirmed to make sure that the USB cable was properly connected, and it was. I tried all the ports and tried other devices through them, and they were able to be successfully detected and used, (i.e; web cam). I don't understand why my creative zen micro photo would not be detected by the software included. Windows is requiring me to install some sought of driver for the player, but I already installed all the required utilities and codecs. I believe it is charging and is detected by windows but not as a removable storage, etc, just 'FOUND NEW HARDWARE', and then no drivers found even through the CD creative provided me. I am also fearing that the battery is taking a long time to charge. This morning I saw that the player was on, but was still charging(I assume). I decided to charge while the player was turned off. Hopefully, now it will be fully charged while the player remains off. I will check when I get home. In the mean time, would some one please assist and respond to me for resolving this situation ASAP for the detection of the player. Thank you very much, Arjun (please do not further me to the knowledge base site as I have already tried all the steps, and no improvement what so what in successfully operating this player. Thank you. Just to add on, I also attempted for a firmware update, and the utility said it was not able to detect the player either, so I wasn't able to even complete a firmware update. Please assist me, URGENT. Thank you.

I sadly am very unhappy with the ZEN Microphoto 8. I was planning on leaving on a trip in the morning and found that suddenly my laptop no longer will recognize my device. I hasve been using the device for several months now with no problems at all, unitl this afternoon. It went into recovery mode and no matter what I tried I could not get it out.
I was finally able to unlock the unit by connecting the unit to my desktop. I was then able to install the firmware update. But now the unit will not work on my laptop at all. All of my media is on my laptop. I have tried several cables to no avail. I am sure that someone is going to mention the suggestion that the device not be used on a laptop, however I find it frustrating that after so much time the unit suddenly does not operate. I tried all of the suggestions in the support section. And it seems truly sad that this might just be due to the cinnection to athe laptop, considering the number of people that now use these as their primary PCs.
If any suggestions can be provided as to the cause of this problem I would love to get it fixed.

ZEN MICRO PHOTO USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNI

help !! i am also having a problem similar to your and just about everyone elses on here. I just purchased a zen microphoto for xmas a month ago and it has been a nightmare . it has worked for about a month perfectly then it ceased to be recognized by? my Alienware area 5 desktop system which previously recognized it fine. I took all of the steps and scanned all of the forums then realized that after uninstalling my windows media player and rolling back to 0 it began to be recognized again. well then surprisingly and maybe not so much so after looking at so many of the post of these forums. Well I have taken so many steps to try to get my ZEN MICRO PHOTO to once again become recognized by my computer? and yet again all efforts have been fruitless. I reformated my ZEN MICROPHOTO?and now when i plug it in a small window pops up at the bottom stating that the USB DEVICE IS NOT RECOGNIZED . I then cannot upload new firmware and can in fact do absolutely nothing but gaze at the player which boots up then fades to black while my pc sees my player as an unknown usb device. I even reformated the pc for the sake of the player , cutting off the nose despite the face in other words and still no dice. I have windows xp service pack 2 , all updates and bios up to date. My pc is only 2 years old and have a lexmark printer? a mouse and a keyboard attched to it , none of which create conflict. Even after reformatting my pc i made sure my player was one of the first peripherial devices connected and all to no avail. I think this is a disgrace that such a compnay as CREATIVE cannot put foward a quality product. Does anyone out there have any solid suggestions on how to fix this proiblem if so they would be gretaly apprecaited. ThanksEdward

vacantmind: You might also want to make sure that you get the latest drivers and software as follows:
. Creative Zen and Jukebox Driver Upgrade version .30.03
2. Creative MediaSource Player/Organizer 3.30.2
3. Creative Zen and NOMAD Jukebox plugin 2.00.9 for Creative MediaSource
Install . then connect the player to the PC. Then install 2. and 3. (the player must be connected for 2. to verify you have a Creative product).
Also an important test is to install the drivers and software on another PC, say a friend's, and see whether you have the problem. If you don't, then the issue is with your PC, or a compatibility issue with the player. If you do, then there's something wrong with the cable or player.

Creative Micro Photo / Gif

Does anyone think Creative will release a new driver supporting Gifs images ?
Im pretty sure it could handle it plus it would be sweet
For the Micro Photo 8gb...
Also I would pay for the driver to make them even more
interested in making it.Message Edited by Moi on 05-5-2006 0:55 AM

Hi,
No that should not be the case. Now thats not to say some manufacturers don't 'throttle' power usage when your laptop is not docked or mains powered to prolong battery life. But from a point of view of charging it shouldn't be an issue. As it takes approx 4 hours to charge a MPhoto chances are your laptops battery will not last through the full re-charge cycle anyway.
If you are looking at prolonged periods with out access to mains you'll probably find availing of the replacable battery facility and aspare battery or two fully charged before departure will be a much better option.
Hope this hel
ps.

Help with my Bran-New Creative Zen Micro Photo. [Questi

<EM>If you don't want to see the backing of my whole story skip to the bold print at the bottom!</EM>I also want you to know I read the FAQs and searched through some topics like this, but haven't found any asking my question.First of all, I'm new to the forum, but I've been researching Creative's Zen for a long time now. I kept observing each one closely before I purchased a product. I then saw the Zen Micro Photo come out. This one won my attention. I loved this, I quickly searched for reviews and went for the buy for Christmas. I told my dad about it and he was "iffy" on the price, but it was better then the iPod in my opinion.Christmas day came and I opened it. Right away I checked everything out I knew a lot about the menu already and all, but not really how to control it. I checked to make sure everything worked. All systems were go. After listening to the defaults (which I loved) I went to go install the software. I already had Media Player 0 and Adobe, oh and I didn't want the freakin AOL toolbar! Lol, so I installed everything else. It took forever, but I hooked it up and I installed the drivers, but as soon as I plug in the USB connector I see: "A HIGH-SPEED USB device has been plugged into a LOW SPEED USB port.After that, I switched USB ports, btu I got same message. I hit the X and then tried to charge. I got the Lightening Bolt, but no dimming of lights. I found out that this computer is not letting me install any service packs, I'm confused about that.My question:Is there anyway I can charge this mp3 player and download music onto my Zen Micro Photo without Service Pack ? Or did I just pay $250 for a really cool glowing mp3 player to be used as a paperweight? (I love this Zen and I ran the battery dead hoping that would make the charging easier).Help?
My Specifications:
My Mp3 Player: Zen Micro Photo (Black)What I tried: Switching USB ports and re-installing Service Pack Software: Not sure how to determine firmware without installing something. I'm on a XP Professional and I'm using the Creative Media Source and Creative Media Toolbox

Thank you DM for responding. I am expecting problems, but it still won't allow me to charge the Zen Micro Photo or even use the Creative Media Source. I can't upload any songs or any contacts on it. I haven't uploaded anything yet, but it's not reading the USB device. When I run Creative Zen Micro Photo Media Explorer I get this message at the top of the screen: "The device is not connected. Please connect your Zen MicroPhoto to the computer. I can't organize anything or add songs... so it just makes all the programs I downloaded useless and my Creative product unusuable.ONe thing it does do though... whenever I plug in my Zen MIcroPhoto to the USB it turns it on and glows, but only shows my battery at the top with one red line and the green lightening bolt filling the battery up.After leaving it like this for two hours the green moves, but the red bar stays the same size.

How do you locate the file where iPhoto library is kept? I moved iPhoto library from hard drive to external dedicated photo drive.

I am trying to restore some elements of my iPhoto library using time machine.
Apple instructions call for locating the file where iPhoto library is kept, and tells you where it is on your hard drive. But I've recently moved my iPhoto library to a dedicated external hard drive, and copied my i photo library there. when i click on it, all the photos are there, but it's an iPhoto library, not a file.
When I go into time machine and click on the date i would like to enter, most of my apps have a circle with a line through it, unaccessible. So: a related question, how would i retrieve a photo file from time machine's previous backup? thank you.

Thank you!
I am trying to retrieve photo uploads from my Android phone. When I last updated my OS, most of these vaporized, leaving only thumbnails. I have had two lengthy sessions with Apple phone support, but still haven't solved the problem.
Apparently I can't go back to July '14 iPhoto in time machine and browse files; i have to copy the entire library.
Which I just did, taking 2 hours.
In order to open the iPhoto library from July '14, I had to first update iPhoto.
When I went into the files, the same problem existed -- photo files gone, only thumbnails there. So now I'm thinking that it's the update that was the problem. This scares me to death, because when we're asked to update, we don't get a menu of preferences to make sure something has been unchecked, like the copy option i had enabled when opening photo files from my phone, which i store in a dropbox folder.
No one at Apple could tell me why this happened, so I have no idea how to prevent it from happening in the future.
That's why I'm trying to create better backups...but i can't figure out deja vu, because it won't open and sync the iPhoto library folder -- it wants me to find the file, and i don't know where it is on the external dedicated photo drive.
I realize this is about six issues, not one. But I'm really appreciative of any help i can get!

[Zen Micro Photo] Stuck in b

My Zen Micro Photo gets stuck in the bootscreen. When I turn my Zen on it says "Creative" and after a couple of seconds "Zen Micro Photo". While "Zen Micro Photo" is in my screen it does nothing. I tried to take out the battery and turn it on again, but still nothing. Only after a couple of hours it starts working again.
It als doesn't connect properly with Windows XP.
The problem started a couple of days ago when I activated the removable harddri've mode on the Zen to connect it to Windows 2000.
Should a reload of the firmware help?

See the section "My Zen is not behaving properly, won't startup, or goes into rescue mode. What should I do?" in the FAQ.
