Muvo Creative MP3 Player prob

My MUVO Creative MP3 player...as seen here-http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=23&subcategory=25&product=099
Well, anyway,Whenever i turn it on, the green light that signals it being on, will flash red, and after about minute or so, turn off, i thought this was just a battery problem..but i switched in a brand new fresh battery...and it still did it, anyone know the problem?
thanks

The manual says that a flashing red light is a battery problem. Have you checked your battery contacts and cleaned them up? How is the player when you connect it to your PC?
You could try a firmware update - there was a new version on the UK site in July of this year. It needs Recovery Mode so make sure you follow the instructions to the letter. You also need to d/l and install the Mass Storage Driver at the top of the page first.

Savings for Creative Mp3 Player

BestBuy is having a 25% off all creative mp3 player sale and I was looking at the Zen Micro Photo. I want an mp3 player that can hold alot of songs that I can run with, but I found out mini-hard dri'ves and regular ones arn't suitable for running...So I am going to stick with a large capacity player with alot of features instead of a flash player but I just can't choose. Plz leave suggestions if you were in my place shopping for an mp3 player.

bosoxxrwd,
If you're planning to do exercise while using a player. I would suggest going after a flash based player like the Zen Nano Plus, Zen Nano and MuVo series instead of microdri've or harddisk based player.

Creative MP3 Player (Microphoto) Blank LCD Display Scr

[size="">Hi, The LCD Display Screen on the Creative MP3 Player is blank. The blue background light will come on but nothing on the screen. I saw that it was suggested to update the firmware, however, I have no idea how to do that. If someone can explain to me how to do that I will try it. Or maybe you can suggest something else that I can do. I already tried several things suggested on your website, like removing the battery and installing it again, etc. I would appreciate it if someone would help me. Thanks!

[size="">Good Morning,[size="">I tried the firmware upgrade, however, the screen is still blank. Should I have removed the batter and re-install it again? I tried calling support, however if my product is not in warranty it really doesn't give me that many options or refers me to anyone. Is there a telephone number in particular I should call. Thank you for your advise though, I appreciate it!? Have a

SL3100 directly compatible with new bluetooth creative mp3 player?

Hi
I have found an old pair of creative 3100 that I though I had lost. Does they work nowadays automatically (without the bluetooth transmitter) with new bluetooth-enabled creative mp3 player like the ZEN X-Fi3? Will the command buttons on the headset work when directly connected to the ZEN X-Fi3?
Or I have to use the old transmitter? Will the command button be usable if i connect the headset via the old bluetooth transmitter?
Thanks for the answers

So far it's work fine after I update the firmware, thanks. but I still kind of '50-50' with it.
well I'm gonna wait for another 2 weeks .

How can I connect my Creative mp3 Player and my car ste

I need to connect my Creative mp3 Player and my car stereo (Peugeot 407 standard car stareo). It haven't cassette player or an "AUX IN" hole. Any Idea?

<FONT face=Helv size=2>
Unfortunately (for us consumers) there are few options.
) Use an FM transmitter which does not work in your area.
2) There was a post in this forum where the person had a device installed that would switch from the car antenna to an FM transmitter. So effecti'vely, the FM transmitter is spliced right into the antenna line into your car stereo. The theory is that it's either using the car antenna or your MP3 player, but never both. There are no competing FM stations. The use also said this cost them $200 .... which makes option 3 a better deal considering FM will decrease the fidelity of a MP3 player.
3) Buy a car stereo with an input jack .. as SSR as sited.
4) You can buy a cassette adapter ... if your current car stereo has a circa 20th century cassette player.
5) Start a grass roots effort to lobby car manufacturers to put in a input jack in the car stereos. The American companies might be softened after this SUV bust.
If you pick #5, I'm available to stamp and stuff envelopes ......

My Forth Creative Mp3 Player and counting

I have just got my fourth creative Mp3 player. You would have though I would have learnt my lesson by now!
First one (Zen Micro)was faulty when purchased so went straight back to the shop.
Second (Zen Micro) lasted 8 months before stopping working one day.
Third (Zen Microphoto) lasted 3 months before the screen stopping working correctly.
Forth and current(Zen Touch 40gb)lasted 3 days before becoming faulty.
I've contacted support as it seems to have the same firmware error problem as numerous others. Is there a fix? I have seen so many threads but not many positi've results.
As far as I am concerned this is the last Creative player I shall buy. If they can't get me fixed up it's going back to the shop for a refund or exchange for anything but a creative player.
Do others have such a poor experience of Creative players or am I just having a bad experience?Message Edited by Ainslie on 07-0-20070:37 AM

I bought a 30gb Nomad Jukebox Xtra 3 or 4 years ago, and only now it quit on me. And only the LED screen, after going through a rainstorm; everything else still works. I just bought a 30gb Zen Vision M to replace her. So far so good. Defecti've products happen. So do unlucky people

MuVo Mix MP3 player

Hello Everyone:
Recently, my son received a MuVo 256MB MP3/Flash drive player. He just opened it and tried to use it with his G4 733. Apparently, there was no software compatible for Mac OS 10.3 OR 9.x. Does ANYONE know of a driver or other software that might help make this flash drive USEFUL to him or should we pack it back up and give it away as a Xmas gift??
Thanks for your help and yes, I already went to Creative's site but found nothing. Maybe someone else knows something I can't find!

Here is a product that claims to do what you want.
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/26986
It's called MuVo Helper 1.4.8 for iTunes, and it is free.
I have no idea if it works or not. Good luck!

Does Creative have trade in promotions on old creative mp3 player for newer mode

Hi,??Just check with you, any brothers here know if there are any shops or promotions that take trade in trade in of old mp3 player for new ones??Wan to trade in my zen micro to get zen V plus...Pls help to advise. Thks in advance

"Creative has HAD Flash-based players for a while... But they have few that are rechargable "
When using a player that takes a AAA battery, just use a rechargeable AAA.
"Apple has just released quantities of TWO and FOUR GIGABYTES!"
Yes, however they aren't practical for many people since they aren't compatible with Yahoo's unlimited music service. Many people would rather get a Zen Micro or Sleek and pay $60 a year to Yahoo to fill up their player with music rather than pay over $,000 to Apple to fill up their 4 gig player with music at 99 cents a song. With the Yahoo service, one can also change the music in their player without additional cost.
"Creative's largest is ONE GB for the Zen Nano and MuVo Micro (both require AA batteries or something... I'd prefer recharagable."
With Creative's Nano and Nano Plus, one can use a rechargeable AAA battery. Rechargeable AAA batteries are great since most chargers can charge 4 at a time. Four nimh AAA rechargeable batteries and a charger can often be purchased for under $20.
With the ipod Nano, once the charge in the built in battery runs out, one can't listen to it until it is recharged. With the Creative Nano Plus, one just switches to another battery(remember I just mentioned how AAA nimh batteries can be conveniently charged 4 at a time?). Taking an ipod Nano on a long trip would be annoying. While the player is small, the notebook computer one would need to carry with it to recharge the player is quite large. I would much rather carry a few extra AAA batteries than a notebook computer(I as many others don't even own a notebook computer).
"I'd love to have a 4 GB flash player. ."
I would also love to have one, but only if it is compatible with Yahoo Music Unlimited, uses a AA or AAA battery, and has a built in radio. That rules out Apple's players on three counts.

Why can't i buy a creative mp3 player in a normal retail sto

i find it really rather disturbing that creative mp3 players are not more widely available in normal retail stores. i li've in one of the top 0 major metropolitan cities in the USA and i go into my local best buy and all they have is a 5GB micro, a 20GB xtra, and a 20GB(?) touch. why is that all they have? if i want a MUVO, i'm screwed. meanwhile that same best buy has every style, size, and color of all the ipod crap and a million accessories (bleh) but NOTHING for creative. the only micro they have is the black one, and only in the 5GB size. i go to another place like Staples, and they have the muvo TX, no micros.
I go next door the the compusa, they've got a full lineup of all the ypod crap, nothing from creative.
i find it really irritating when one wants to say, buy a player for a friend and cannot find what they are looking for. makes it real easy to buy the freaking ypods. ugh.

hey blood, you're completely missing my point... I KNOW i can order them online at a million places.
the poster that said they don't want to compete with prices, that's insane. there would be NO STORES anywhere if stores were really afraid of that. internet prices are lower for EVERYTHING.
my point is i guess, why don't stores stock more stuff from creative (other then soundblaster stuff)? the answer to my own question is probably that creative stuff does not sell as well as ipod stuff.
the reason i say this is a friend of mine was heading out of town and was interesting in getting an mp3 player for the trip so i suggested he might look into the new creative MIX thingy but we everywhere we looked they had nothing, so the dolt ended up getting an ipod shuffle. oh well. we lost another one due to players just not being in the stores. sad!
I bought my zen micro from a retail store.. In canada. In holland in the one electronics store they have the touch,3 colors of micro, 2 muvo players, and a Xtra. They only had the ipod mini...

Creative mp3 player compatibility with PFS car au

I was wondering if the "Plays For Sure" compatible Creative Players will work with the PFS compatible car audio receivers from Kenwood and Alpine. I'm mostly wondering about my Zen Xtra, but I'm sure others would like to know if their players would work also. Is Creative pursuing testing this, or should I just assume that all PFS works with all other PFS?

I purchased music from iTunes, but there is one
problem, I can't play it on my Creative Zen Vision
MP3 player.
Yes, you are right.
I even burned a CD with
the music, and it won't play on my car stereo??
You must burn a CD-Audio to play it in your home/car stereo.
If you also want to play those songs on your Creative player, once you've done the CD-Audio you can rip it again in MP3.

Creative MP3 player plays songs alphabetically instead of in track order

I use a Creative Nomad Zen 20GB USB 2.0 MP3 player with iTunes 7. Lately, songs listed in the correct track order on a given album in iTunes show up listed and get played in alphabetical order when copied to the Zen.
Any way in iTunes around this? I've been using XNJB, but it seems like it should be do-able in iTunes - especially since I wasn't having this problem in previous versions.
I've searched the forum but seem to have missed what is probably a common issue. Please point me to the right thread if this is the case.
Thanks, R.
PowerMac G5 1.8 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Also, I'm using iTunes 11.0.5, the latest version as far as I know.

Creative MP3 Player News Ser

Hi Everyone,
on February 22nd, 2005, Creative Labs is shutting down their own news server at :
news.creativelabs.com Products.Nomad
Due to the high demand of current users of this news server, I have created an private, but public news server, where everyone can post questions and Creative Labs MP3 Player related topics. This NEW news server is located at :
news.jumpingcholla.com
.....and can be accessed via any common news reader, like Outlook Express, Eudora, etc.
Hope to see yo there.
Greetings,

Before this kinda wonderful thing called the World Wide Web there was Usenet, which is a different system for posting on information boards. Creative's "news server" is a Usenet based server. Much like the web board here that allows you to post questions, answer etc., but it's a completely different system from the world wide web, and arguably a lot better targeted at this type of information format.
Basically just click on JCE's link, or the link in my signature, and your default newsreader should take you there and allow you to complete the setup.
More on Usenet here in Wikipedia.
