I am using WMP, latest firmware .2.03.
I have downloaded audio books from Netlibrary (protected wav files).
I can open the files in WMP and real player but once I tried to copy the files (sync) to Zen player using WMP and realplayer or just right click copy to Zen, I get an unsupported file type. Same when using the Creative Suite.
I tried looking for others who may have the problem but it seems like noone has the same problem.
MP3 Audio books sync/copied OK.
Any more ideas? (I have a Cowon D2 - synced OK - but it isn't mine)
Please help...or I might just have to return this.
I don't think I have ever seen a DRM WAV file on NetLibrary. I have only seen WMA or MP3 files. Contact them & ask if the file is supposed to be WAV or WMA. Also check that the clock on your player has the correct time & date.

  • Older creative zen mp3 players suddenly not recognized by Wiindows Vista

    Hello
    I have three older Creative Zen mp3 players, a Vision M, a Sleek Photo and an Xtra. The computer has Windows Vista Basic. All thre players were working perfectly three or four weeks ago.. As of a few days ago. the computer is no longer recognizing? all three players. I tried system restore but but system restore is not working. Do I post this problem here or would the Microsoft support forums be a better place to go to for help for this? Thank you for any advice.

I tried doing a system restore, I have Windows Vista Basci, but I need to restore it to three or four weeks ago and system restore soes not go back that far. I have also done the sfc /scannow and the message I received was Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files ibut was unable to fix them. Is there anything else I can do to fix this problem? Thanks

  • Playlists - CREATIVE LABS ZEN N

    Hi,
    I` am about to buy a CREATIVE LABS ZEN NANO GB and wants to ask if its possible to create playlists on this mp3 player?

    No, unfortunately this player doesn't support playlist. If you're looking for playlist capable player, you can look at the Zen MicroPhoto, Zen Micro, Zen Vision, Zen Vision M,etc. Which other player are you interested in? Post them up and others should be able to advise you along too.

  • Will any Zen MP3 Players run on Windows

    I've looked at the system requirements for some of the Zen MP3 players, and they all require Windows 98 SE, ME, 2000, or XP. The OS I am currently running is Windows 98. I was just wondering, since there aren't too many differences between 98 and 98 SE, would a Zen MP3 player run on Windows 98?

    There's definitely differences between W98 and W98SE. From what I know W98 does not provided much USB support and thus W98SE was released to provide the desire USB support. Although you can still use USB in W98, lots of problem may occur there. The explaination goes the same for Windows NT too. So that's probably why W98SE was quoted as the minimum OS require.

  • Creative Labs Zen NX Nomad Jukebox and Vi

    Hey all- Hope I can find some help here.
    I recently got a new system, and it is running Vista Premium. I have an older mp3 player that I got from my brother-a 30GB Zen Nomad NX Jukebox. I have installed all of the (very old)software on the CD that came with it. However, my problem is whenever I hook up my MP3 player, it says that there isn't a driver installed. I have gone on the download page and downloaded all of the driver software and installed it, but I still have this message come up.
    When I check it on my computer, it says that my player isn't connected. Any help?

    Creative Labs, with their large corporation mindset, apparently decided to pursue an ill-advised Marketing Strategy by not releasing a needed Vista driver for the many thousands of Zen NX players out there. This is no doubt due to GREED, because they seem to want to be selling additional thousands of their more recently released MP3 players.
    No good for them. I'm confident a huge base of professional software developers will stop recommending Creative products to their corporate base due to this arrogance . . .

  • Questions about Creative Zen MP3 Players.....which one to b

    I had a Rio Carbon 6GB and I really love it (until it died on me), and I heard that Creative Zen 8GB, Creative Zen Micro 8 GB, Creative Zen V Plus?8GB are good choices to buy? I have readed all reviews from PC World, CNET, MSN, and all three sound good, but what are main differences between them that I need take in to consideration before I buy? I also I have read that you can replace the battery in all of them....is this true? What is the battery life before it needs to be replaced and how much? Thanks

    If you listen to a lot of audiobooks, then I personally recommend the Zen V Plus 2, 4 or 8 GB. It doesn't have a user replaceable battery.
    The battery is is built into the player. The audiobooks and albums seem much easier to find and use than on the Zen Micro. You can find these players on the Creative Savings Center refurbished for about half the price of a new player. (The Zen Micro, you can find on eBay used The refurbished Zen V Plus Players I have received when ordering, have been brand new and work just fine. They have a 90 day parts/labor warranty. I consider the 2GB Zen V Plus to be a throw-away(when or if it breaks after the warranty) at $35.99 plus shipping.

  • Creative labs zen touch always breaks up after copying mp3s to

    Hi,
    Im copying music with the windows media player, newest firmware is installed. My prob is that always when i want to make music on my mp3 player he brakes up after the copying and i can only reset him. Another strange thing is that i can only copy song the second wont copy, but this is only when he isnt fresh resetted. What can i do? Its very annoying and i dont think its good when i reset my player 0 times a day... I tried the fixing things of the player already like make a disk repair and stuff - nothing worked

    Help please... Does no one know what it could be? I can only get my zen work with media player, other programms like winamp arent working...

  • **THE NEW** Creative Labs MuVo Mix 512MB MP3 Pla

    What's the story with this player? This is a brand new model. Futureshop has it at $09. I just bought the MuVo 52MB TX FM for $59 a few weeks ago. This player loks the same but $50 cheaper. I'm thinking of trading in the TX FM (30 days to try at futureshop) and pick up this one instead. I don't see much info on it. Is it as good as the TX FM?Message Edited by Brewskie9 on 03-29-2005 09:05 PM

    argh! well knowing how creative seems to be trying to follow in apple's footsteps these days instead of blazing their own path, i'd say it's a safe bet it's an awful lot like the shuffle......hmmm, MIX...SHUFFLE...sounds similar to me. look for the GB model soon, and i'll venture to say it'll cost you about $50 or so. bleh!

  • Creative Labs Zen Micro Mp3 Pla

    My player is stuck on the Creative screen--tried the reboot process and get nothing--is there a way to reboot other than taking the battery out and replacing while holding the on off switch--Please Help!

    loading time? do you mean the time it takes to recharge? on USB i think it's around 3-4hrs. i bought the AC adapter recently, i love it. it was around 25$ at walmart and that cuts the charge time by around /2 or so. you can also run it on AC without the battery so it'll last you longer.

  • Creative Labs Digital MP3 Playe

    Hi, guys am planning to buy this MP3 player the main reason is its extended MMC. Is there an upgrade that could make this piece of equipment read as far as GB capacity of MMC?
    Thanks...

    Erm... It really depends on the sizes. Creative HDD variants come in 4,5,6, 20 GB etc. Flash-based mp3 on the other hand comes in 64mb (the old ones),28mb, 256mb,52mb,GB most of which are fixed memory. Prior to that, are you intending to bring your mp3 player for vigorous activities like working out in the gym or jogging? If so, it would be better if you get the flash version instead.
    However, in comparing the size difference, a larger capacity i.e. 20GB is more worth than a 4 or 5GB player which costs ard S$329. The 20GB one would cost S$399. (This is the price in singapore during a sale a month ago.) So, as you can see, it would be more worthwhile getting the 20GB one, which may be bigger in size and is slightly heavier than the 4GB or 5GB ones. What's more? You can use the 20GB one to back up or transfer your files from one computer to another. The 4GB ones also can, just that the space is much smaller.
    ultimately, the choice is yours.

  • Creative Lab Zen Dead?

    Okay so today I was listening to my zen before I went to school and it was chill and I put it into my backpack. After I get home, I try to turn it on and nothing (battery somehow got fully discharged?). Then I plugged it into my computer and no blue light is coming on so I am very scared like my battery somehow died even though I don't even use this player for more than 2 hours per week. I had a problem like this when I first got my zen and I ended up having to exchanging it (this happened to two earlier zens) but I haven't had a problem like this since I had this one. So any advice?

  • Creative Lab Zen M 30gb Unknown Dev

    I am at my wits end. My mp3 was working fine until now - My computer doesn't recognize it and I have read and tried almost everything mentioned. I tried it in 3 other computers - no luck. It will charge but I can't download as it won't dock. Can someone PLEASE help? I tried contacting Creative but they weren't much help at all. Thanks

    Does this happen all the time? Perhaps you can try updating the player firmware and see if it hel
