MuVo N200 and Mac

Hi, hopefully someone can help me?!
I've recently got a MuVo N200. I'm having a bit of trouble adding songs to it though, and am wondering whether it's because I have a Mac instead of a PC. It does seem to work with iTunes, as I have managed to add some songs, but for some reason, it won't let me fill the memory. It gets so far, and then won't add anymore. It tells me 'there is not enough room on media module "built-in" to copy all of the requested files', and refuses to add anymore, yet the display shows that the memory is nowhere near full.
It was suggested to me that perhaps certain files were corrupt, as some songs could be added, while others not. However, after deleting all tracks and trying again (on several different occasions), songs which hadn't previously worked, did, while others which had, didn't. All very confusing.
If anybody knows of what I'm talking about, and might be able to tell me what the problem could be I'd be really grateful.
Thanks.

I am not a Mac user, but I had a similar problem when I first started transferring files to my MuVo N200. I was only able to store up to around 450 MB to 460 MB of music files out of 52 MB. When I used the customized "Explorer" program that Creative offers for Windows, the problem was resolved. Does the MuVo N200 include any Mac software? Anyways, hope someone can help you get around this.

Muvo N200 and Vi

Hi,I can't use my MuVo N200 with Windows Vista. It always looks for drivers but it's unable to find and install them. In XP and other operating systems i never installed any driver since it is recognised as a storage system or removable disk, so no drivers are required. I downloaded files about N200 for Vista in the Download section, but installer says that it can't find the mp3 player.So how to use N200 with Vista?Thanks a lot!

?I'm in the same position - I've recently bought a new laptop with Vista and my MuVo N200 isn't recognised. Are there any drivers for it'sMessage Edited by Eyepee on 04--2008 07:5 AM

Micro N200 and Mac OS compatabil

Please bear with me; I'm new to this.
Do I understand correctly that the N200 has (so-called) undocumented Mac compatibility, that is, I can just plug the N200 into a Mac running OS0 and drag and drop files and folders? I realize that I can't use any of the Creative file-managing software that came with the device; I'm just curious about putting files right into the N200 Root directory/folder or organizing them into folders using imusic and then transfering them.
I would really appreciate it if someone who has some insight into this can set out the procedure and an explanation of how it works. Are USB storage devices not OS-specific?
Thanks all.

Thanks Jeremy, I just had the same question.
Sorry could you help? I don't know much about computers... what is the difference between "support the device" and "support UMS". What is the feature of the (Mac-incompatible) software provided? Is it just a nice face with logos and maybe a player etc or is it something really necessary for using the mp3 player with the computer or for listening to the files with the player? Could you pls explain how it works?
I have looked around in some forums and Clovissimus' question is quite usual (and simple!). Is there any chance that CL's products support Mac or Linux environments? I am thinking of buying an mp3 player for a Mac, and sincerely, hearing about "probabilities" does not encourage me a lot... Is it so difficult to test it's
Sorry if I sound critical, but it is my belief that end users should let the companies know about their worries so that they can solve them.
Thanks!

Muvo n200 disk is f

I apologize if this has been answered before. I just bought a muvo n200 52. It is only letting me put about 350 megs of mp3s. It says I still have room but when i try a message comes up disk is full. I am using a macintosh with mac os 0.3.8. I am just dragging and dropping and unable to use the windows software. Is there somesort of a partition that I am not aware of. How can I fix this so I can use more disk space.

Muvo n200 - background noise, to l

hey hi
i bought muvo n200 and i had problem with voice recording because it was to quiet, so i decided to upgrade firmware, but after i have these problems:
. voice recording always to quiet
2. but music and radio plays to loud, at minimum volume is FM still so loud that i can't hear when somebody talks to me
3. thare is the backgroud noise, when the backlit is on, after i updated, before it wasn't
help please, otherwise i kill the player

no exact procedure, i was just trying with a bad feeling that something bad (with the player) will happen
i downgraded from .20.04 (latest), don't know what was the original version in the player, battery was in,
i've tried to run the .2.0 in normal mode and it did some errors (as expected), nothing happend
than i've tried it in recovery mode (i had problems to connect it - some drivers problem i suppose), but i did it, than i ran the .2 firmware and was trying to start(the firmware upgrade) it but i got some error or something, i tried all the buttons there, i think i wanted to format the stuff - it didn't work, and finally i ran again the start and curiously it started to upgrade - as u can see no exact process - realy don't remember how, i was only trying and suppose the firmware too (many creative bugs), (maybe it installed some drivers between i pushed the same button later)
but i remeber after i disconected the player there was still the usb connection logo on the player display, so i needed to reset it (removing battery), (and was hoping i didn't destroy it), and than power on and the excitement moment and .... it worked (luck?)
maybe i'll write a creative novel :-|

Muvo N200 - Car Ste

I have a muvo n200 and am wondering the options, if any, to listen to my mp3s through my car stereo. What will i need, where can i buy it, how much will it cost? Any and all help is appreciated!
Thanks in advanceMessage Edited by HBNelson on 05-08-2005 04:3 PM

If there is an input jack, a cable might only be around $8. A cassette adapter is probably around $5-20. An FM transmitter might be $30 and up. In terms of sound quality the cable is best, then the cassette adapter, then an FM transmitter.Message Edited by JK23 on 05-08-2005 08:40 PM

MuVo N200 vs. Zen Nano P

Hello everyone. Kindly tell me the differences between the MuVo N200 and the Zen Nano Plus 52MM MP3 players? Which one should I buy and why? Thanks!
Leonard

My ZNPlus is Black.
I have only seen black in the store I buy from.
The Zen Nano Plus is MUCH less buggy for me. It does not misbehave as much as my white N200.
ALTHOUGH, a new firmware load would fix everything every time. I just got tired of dinking with it.
The software is different for the ZNP. DO NOT put 200 upgrades on Zen Nano Plus even if Creative tells you to. Call back in and get another support person. They may have it straightned out internally now.
It came from the factory good for Audible with no need to update.
I will think seriously before I put new upgrades on it as it is working perfectly now.
I have version .00.02 on mine now and it has no issues so far and I use it HEAVILY.
I would not get the N200 if it were me.
Do a search on this forum also and you can get other opinions as well....
Good luck. IMHO it is the only creative product I will buy again.

MUVO N200 Bookmarking inside fold

Hi,
I have a Muvo N200, and am pretty happy with it - except for the problem with heaphones and screen light interference. But when I'm using it, there's a feature I'd like to have. When switching between folders (for example audiobook to music album) I'd like that the player remembers where I was in that folder. For music it's OK (even though I always hear the beginning...), but for audiobooks, it's annoying having to forward through the files and inside the file to where I left off.
Does anyone if it's possible to bookmark where I left? Thanks.

The tecnical support at Creative replied back to my query, so I leave the anwer here for future reference:
With the MUVO N200 it will remember the stopping point of the audio file
that you were playing if you turn off the unit then turn it back on.
However it will not remember the stopping point between several files.
Now depending on your audio books you may be able to make chapters so
that you do not have to manually forward through you the hole file. If
you have any more questions please let us know.

Muvo N200 - Searching Through BIG MP3 fi

A positi've note in a sea of grumblings !
I have copied a 4 hour MP3 file onto the Muvo N200 and it took just over 30 seconds to search through to get to hour in. I am pretty impressed by this. It seems to handle big MP3s no problem too - this one is encoded at 92 KBPS and is 330Mb in size.

Out of interest, do you get any visual indication of where you are in the file?

Muvo N200 support playlis

I am seriously considering purchasing a muvo n200 GB, however I would like to know if there is anyway to organize the songs e.g through playlists , or is it just one big space to dump all your songs, and you'd have to scroll through every song just to find one that you want to hear.
thank you for reading my post, any input is greatly appreciated.

There seems to be some confusion on this topic. Hopefully this post will help clear the matter up.
I just bought the MuVo n200 and I really like it (256mb model). I had the same question you did about playlists. You can create playlists on your computer with the software provided but the player itself does not support playlists. The player does support the use of folders, so essentially you can accomplish the same task as a playlist by creating folders and storing them on your player. Once the folders have been stored on your player, you simply skip to the folder you want to listen to. When a folder is transferred to the player the songs in the folder will be arranged alphabetically. I have not figured a way around this but it is no big deal if you keep your folders reasonably small.
Also I have noticed that you cannot put a folder in a folder (like you can in Windows directories). You can do this on the computer with the software provide but you cannot transfer the embedded folders. For example, if you create a folder named Rock and put several folders in that folder named Boston, REM, Dire Straits, etc and then transfer this data to your player, the player will not recognized the folder. All this means is that if you create a folder you must put songs in it, not other folders. Again, no big deal as long as you know this.
I like this product. The only shortcoming I have seen is the documentation is lacking. This is somewhat made up for by the quick and accurate response I got from Tech Support though. They got back to me in about 5 minutes. I have pasted the response from Tech Support below.
Thank You for being Creative Customer.
For using the muvo micro to store playlists, I'm afraid this is not
supported by the player. It can store folders instead.
Thus in place of playlists, you may wish to create folders at the ROOT
directory and store the files you want, into each folder instead.
And to playback the songs in a particular folder, you may skip to that
folder directly.
I apologise for any inconveniences caused to you.
We look forward to serving you again.
Thank You for contacting Creative technical support.

Muvo N200 reformat didn't w

Hi,
I just bought the Muvo N200 and my computer froze in the middle of downloading songs. I had to disconnect, which froze my player. I followed the instructions on how to remormat the player to FAT, but this still didn't work. The player just turns on for a second and then shuts down. Is there any other way of reformatting the dri've to do a cold boot?
I have also tried to unistall all of my software and re-install and reformat the player at the same time, but the same problem continues. Any ideas?

I had the same problem with my muvo n200, but it stoped playing all of a sudden. I realized that it was playing only wma files and when it was trying to read an mp3 it turned off.
I have reinstalled the firmware provided by Creative on the site and all went well. I hope you solve your problems. Creative are good products, just some models have little problems

MuVo N200 Headpho

I just purchased a muVo n200 and I am quite pleased with it but I really don't like ear buds. What would be a good pair of headphones with this unit. I bought a pair but they weren't that good with it.
Any advice/assistance would be great?
Thanks
Joe

jpawela: It depends a *lot* on your preference for style and budget. I'm a big fan of the Sony EX5/7 canalphones. But as Jason suggests, search on headphones and you'll find many past threads on this with many opinions

New Muvo N200 - Should I upgrade firmwar

Just got a new Gb Muvo N200 and looking at the settings it is version ..0
Should I upgrade the firmware as I believe there is a newer version.
I havent experienced any pops or crackles yet but it is new and I havent listened to more than 5 minutes

BognorRocks,
The new firmware listed some fixs and added support for Audible audio. If your not having problem with the player and audible audio support is not needed at your end then it's not needed.

PLEASE HELP MUVO N200 ERROR EVERY TIME I TRY AND DOWNLOAD A SONG

hi every time i try and download a song it says error. i put it into recovery mode and it fixes it but i have to unload all the songs off and then start again but the same thing happens again and sometimes i don't even know if my player goes into recovery mode because my computer doesn't detect it. is there anything i can do about the error every time i try an ddownload a song? please help i am relly frustrated!!

"Download" as in from LimeWire or some such program? Or loading your player with songs.
If it's from LimeWire, the song file is probably corrupted.
If it's loading your player with songs, either you haven't installed the player's corresponding driver correctly, or something's happened to corrupt your firmware.
Try downloading the firmware from Creative and re-loading it onto your player. Very easy to do.
If that doesn't fix anything, try uninstalling and then re-installing the Creative MuVo N200 driver onto your computer. Get somebody that really knows what they're doing to help you.
