MuVo N200 Problem, please hel

Hi everyone,
I have just purchased a N200 this last month, and today i noticed that some of the songs a periodically stopping. The player has been fine up until now. I initially thought it might be the battery so i changed it, but the problem still persists. Can anyone offer any advice.
Thanks

Creative is selling millions of MP3 players. If you visit a city with millions of people, you will see many sick people in their largest hospital. A firmware upgrade is a simple matter. When I first got my n200 a number of months ago there were some noises on playback. Loading the .2 firmware solved those completely. Recently I loaded the .5 firmware. I wasn't having a problem with the player recently, but just wanted the latest firmware. Think of a firmware update as being like an update for Windows.
Since you are thinking about getting an ipod Nano, I suggest that you follow Apple's support forums and see all the problems that people start having with their ipod Nanos. Keep in mind that there are aren't so many ipod Nanos out already, so it will take some time for large numbers of support postings for the ipod Nano to appear. MP3 players are complex devices. Think of them as being like computers. Keep in mind all the computer glitches people have even when doing simple things on their pc. Don't expect an MP3 player to be like a tape player or portable radio in term of operating simplicity.

  • MuVo N200 problem with playba

    I have an older MuVo N200. I have transferred some of my class notes to it and it had done just fine so I transferred some musice to it as well. It played back very well for about 2 days and now it is just a high pitch squelling:angry:. I have lost some of the songs that my daughter has sung because it has garbled and destroyed them ? Any way I would just like to know what is going on. I have deleted the music and?transferred it again and it works just like it is supposed to and the play back will be fine the first time around then... sounds that remind me of really, really bad radio station static. Any ideas? Help is appreciated.

    I suggest reloading the firmware. This will also reformat the player, so everything stored on the player will be lost. Make sure you have copies on your pc first. Search the forum for detailed instructions about how to reload the firmware.

  • MuVo N200 - problem loading mu

    I've been spending the last hour or so trying to put new songs onto my MuVo N200 (GB), and after a while this error message started showing up when I tried to put a new song on.
    <IMG src="http://pictures.greatestjournal.com/userimg/5537928/65009">
    I have 2 MB left on my player, and the file is less than 5 MB.
    Any help is very much appreciated.

    Sorry, thought I had gone through all of them. I'll try doing a more thourough search next time.
    I did find the answer to why I couldn't load any more music onto my player, and it was the same reason I couldn't record anything.
    Thanks for making me double-check. :robothappy:

  • MuVo N200 Problem - High Rattling Ec

    Hello,
    I recently started experiencing a playback problem with my MuVo, in which the songs have a high, rattling echo to them. At first i thought it was the headphones, but it's the player. I've tried erasing the dri've (I'm running Mac OSX), cleaning, etc. It still persists. I'm away for the summer and am unable to get the original receipt, so I can't take it in for repairs. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hello Joel
    Have you tried reloading the firmware in the player? This seems to cure a number of problems.
    The firmware can be downloaded from:

  • Muvo N200 -problems with so

    I have tried switching headphones, reformatting, burning files directly form disk onto it, but I keep hearing a very fuzzy and distorted sound quality. I can hear noise and a bit of the music but there is a loud buzzing sound which ruins the quality. Any suggestions?

    Backlight buzz, or something other?
    If its not the backlight buzz (dont thinks so), try reflashing the firmware, and try reformatting. What files if it happening with? (.mp3 , .wma ?)

  • 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 <EM>really</EM> knows what they're doing to help you.

  • Muvo n200 HEL

    my n200 wont turn on anymore i updated the firmware because i kept getting the error when i turned it on. but now it wont turn on anymore and when i plug it in my computer doesnt even recognise it. i've looked at other threads with the same problem and i've done everything that it says to do but still doesnt work.

    I was having the same problem as C-rad after following instructions from a customer support email to update the firmware. I apparently had missed the part in the instructions to "Make sure that format data Area is selected".
    Next my MuVo N200 wouldnt turn on. I finally got it to go in Recovery Mode.... Something happened like the computer restarted or shut down or something...and now my computer wont even recognize the player in recovery mode. I deleted the original creative thigns and reinstalled it....and it still doesnt recognize anything.
    When I go to Device Manager and Hidden Devices when it is plugged in, I cant find anything that I would think is the player?
    What do I do next? I would really appreciate any help I could get.

  • Music Balance Problem -MuVo N200 Micro

    I've had my MuVo N200 Micro (GB) for about a year now and its been fine all this time. But recently is had a problem where certain tracks will only play in the right earphone. I've change earphones, unloaded and reloaded all my music and its still the same. Some tracks are OK, but most of them play on right phone at reduced sound level. I don't think anything is physically wrong with it. Can anyone help me out here?
    Many thanks

    To put the player in recovery mode, you first need to have the driver installed on your pc. Use the link I gave to download the driver. Next you need to remove the battery from the player, and hold down the start button while connecting the player to the pc. Don't let go of the start button until the player is recognized by the pc.

    My MuVo is not working properly, what can I do?
    The first thing to try with a misbehaving MuVo is to update the firmware. Get the latest version from Nomadworld.com downloads and make sure to follow the instructions exactly that are accessed from <EM>show details </EM>at the download page.

  • I really need help with my creative MuVo N200 mp3 pla

    i got my MuVo N200 mp3 player for chirtmas of last year, and it stopped working in 3 months. it used to shut off every few minutes and the mic doesnt work any more and i cant record music from the radio. right now it doesnt even work for a minute, it shuts off as soon as i try and turn it on. i emailed creative when it first started happening and they sent me a email saying what to do on there website, something about downloading something. i tryed it and it didnt work, im not sure if i didnt do it right. And right now i have no idea what to do. and creative won't help me unless i pay them money to fix it for me which im not about to do. has anyone have the same problem with the MuVo N200 mp3 player? what am i suppose to do to fix it's I still have there email telling me what to do, but i just dont get how to do it and if it will work. It only worked for me 3 months, and now im mad and thinking about buying a new one thats not from creative but i really want to try fixing it again to see if it will work. please help me.

    Good question, unfortunately I have absolutely no idea. Reflashing/-formatting generally takes care of the usual cases of wonkyness this player develops, and there isn't anything more drastic you as a user could do.
    Do you have a directory named "Recorded Tracks" on your player? Should be created automatically, but if it isn't you could try creating it manually...
