Muvo N200 shows 0 free sp

Just got the N200, tuner is amazing. Decided to hook it to my PC, figure just drag and drop MP3 files...NOT....
Shows up as Creative Muvo N200 in device manager, but shows as 0 free and used space. Doesn't seem to read the GB. Running WinXP...
Tried upgrading firmware but all it does is search..
Any ideas?

Can you test on another PC? It could be a USB compatibility problem with yours.

MuVo N200 - Show name of arti

I recently bought a MuVo N200, which I am so far very pleased with. One question, though: Is it possible to make it display the name of the artist as well as the name of the song? The songs are in WMA format and when checking properties for each file, they contain the name of artist. Thankful if anyone out there have the answer to this little problem.

Hey,
what I do is just make folders for artists (eg, abc def ghij kl mnop qrst ... etc) and contained in those are the artists starting with those letters. EG, Akon - Lonley.mp3 goes into abc folder. Thatway, I can skip easily to song I want. As for tags, I just remove them, so it displays filename. Organize your files properly like above, and it'll work out...
FORMAT:
{Artist} [and/or {ft. {Other Atrists}] - {Title}.mp3
Then put the file in the correct folder..

I have only heard of one person in here who managed to get an earlier firmware back on once they had gone to .5.0 or beyond. They put on .0.02 - get the link to it from this excellent post by dingens.
I have tried to go to .2.0 and couldn't get it to work - haven't tried .0.02 yet - I'm not feeling brave enough!

Muvo n200 freez

hello
my creative muvo n200 keeps freezing on me at the n200 screen. I have tried taking the battery out and replacing it but that does not work.
I have attempted to download the new firmware onto it but it says to start my player in recovery mode before completing the install. What is recovery mode?
Also when I attempt to safely remove my player, it says the generic volume cannot be stopped right now. please try again later.
someone please help me with these problems.
many thanks
lee

Lee,
The steps to put the player into recovery mode are outline in the firmware downloaded page. Check this out and look under the Notes section.

MuVo N200-No Free Space--Doesn't play eit

Had the Muvo N200 for about 2 months and it worked great. Changed the battery the last time then all of a sudden the thing tells me there's no music! Plug it into the computer and it looked fine...all the folders and files were still there and it was only half full. Unpluged it and nothing! On the info section it says TOTAL

Try to update the firmware and format the dri've and see if it recovers.
If all else fails, contact the creative support.

MuVo N200 - help me, its de

I have a MuVo N200 player (28) and I used it for 6 months with no problem. Then my PC was formatted and before I reinstalled the software, I connected the player. After that it stopped working and when I connect it to the USB port, it just shows some display that it is connected.
Net I tried re-installing the software, but strangely the driver is not getting installed and now the device is also not gettign detected on the PC.
Even tried Device Manager but it shows no driver installed. I downloaded the following drivers from the internet but nothing happens as the player is not getting detected:
MuVoN200_PCFW_LF__20_04.exe
MuVoN200_PCFW_L4__5_0.exe
MuVoN200_PCFW_LB___0.exe
What do I do? Pls help!

Please download the recovery mode driver and install it first:
http://uk.europe.creative.com/support/downloads/download2.asp?MainCategory=23&Product=0&dlcentric= 7954&Product_Name=MuVo+Micro+N200&OSName=Windows+X P
Now, remove the battery from your player. With the battery removed, hold down the Play button and connect the USB cable. Wait for Windows XP to detect your unit. It will take longer then usual, and the device will most likely have a STMP or STAC name right now. Let go of the Play button.
Install the firmware update:
http://uk.europe.creative.com/support/downloads/download2.asp?MainCategory=23&Product=0737&dlcentr ic=947&Product_Name=MuVo+Micro+N200&OSName=Windows +XP
Be sure to tick "Format Data Area". Due to flash memory corruption, your music was already lost before you started. It is likely that you will receive a warning that the flash memory is not initialised. Accept it and continue.
Once this process completes (the Close button will become acti've), you still need to format your MuVo dri've in FAT32.
If you receive any error messages, be sure to write them down.
If this procedure does not make the N200 usable, you will need to contact customer support and ask for an RMA. Feel free to describe that you have tried a firmware upgrade in recovery mode. They will want to know what error messages you received in this process.
Note that the RMA procedure only applies if the unit is less then 2 months old.

Muvo n200-not find by

hello
I got a big problem with my muvo N200. When I connect it through usb to pc it's not recognized.the picture which shows that player is connected to pc is not appearing. I can't upgrade the firmware and do anything with usb. I tried this on other pc's and different usb cables....where's the problem?

Try this:?http://forums.creative.com/creativel...ssage.id=23264?Read posts 3 and 4. Several N200 owners have gotten satisfaction from this, e.g.,?http://forums.creative.com/creativel...d=00348#M62247?I occasionally come back here to check on N200 failures, because Creative just won't put this in their FAQ, I guess they feel they have to see it work for themselves. Even the uber-posters won't acknowledge this fix discovered by AB84. Hope it works for you, as it has for several of us.

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 not recognized by MediaSou

I have a Muvo N200. I downloaded the latest media source software. At first it would not install because it could not find a creative player attached (even though it was). After much troubleshooting I discovered that the creative install program did not play nice if I had other USB devices attached (I have an external hard disk, external DVD burner and a card reader). Once I turned all the other USB devices off then it installed fine. However now that MediaSource is installed it tells me that I have no creative player attached. The player shows up as dri've F in windows and I can read and write to it fine. It also shows up in my old MediaSource software (shows up as Muvo). I have not updated the firmware for this player as I am some reluctant to take the risk that the player will stop working. I see lots of people have problems with firmware upgrades.
Is there something I can do to get MediaSource to see my Muvo N200 player?Any help would be appreciated.

I got my problem fixed. It turns out I also needed the appropriate plugin as well. I sort of assumed it would be all one package but trolling through the forum I found reference to their being different plugins depending on what unit you have. Installing the right plug in fixed the issue.

Muvo N200 not working.. any ide

I have a Creative Muvo N200 for about a year now. Just recently it started having problems. Whenever I turn it on it shows the startup logo and then turns off immediately. I've tried deleting all the files on it and that worked for a little bit but then it went back to having this same problem. I tried putting it in recovery mode but I'm really not sure if I did this right because when I tried to download the firmware it, sometimes it said it couldn't detect the player and sometimes it said the player wasn't in recovery mode. Does anyone know of anything else I can do? Or can someone explain how exactly to put it in recovery mode? Maybe I'm doing that wrong, I don't know. Thanks for any ideas.

The full instructions for Recovery Mode are in the sticky thread. PBMessage Edited by PeeBee on -25-200604:50 PM

Muvo n200- exchange it or jack

I bought a muvo n200 three weeks ago. It was working great until a week ago. I was listening to a track, it started to distort a bit here and there, and then it stopped in a loop of distortion.
I replaced the battery a few times with similar results. The track would proceed for a minute and a half with occasional distortion before freezing altogether. Additionally, the track count time was wrong. It would count ,2,3,4,5,6(fast), <skip 7>, 8(slow), 9,0,,2,3(fast). The specific numbers would change, but the pattern is basically the same.
I removed all the tracks and placed a single album back on with the same result.
I installed the muvo n200 drivers from the CD (previously just used windowsXP explorer to transfer tracks) and formatted the player (fat32), placed an album back on and had the same result.
After emailing support, I installed the latest drivers (MuVoN200_PCFW_LB__2_0). Now, the tracks seem to play and there is no freezing, but the track counter problem persists. A 2:33 track shows as 4:6.
Thank you for making it this far. Is there something else I can do to fix this? If I take this back to Fry's, should I exchange it for another n200 or just get a different type of player altogether? I like the concept of the n200 (no moving parts, inline radio), but I keep reading more horror stories on these forums.
Thanks...

Little bit strange, I'd get it exchanged for another one because the N200 is an excellent little unit and very high quality. If you have problems again (very very unlikely), you may want to see if you can get something else.
If you do have the same problems again, it could be that your MP3 or WMA files are corrupted? Have you tried re-ripping your music from CD?Message Edited by scorpian007 on 07--2005 02:42 AM

Muvo n200 recognize probl

i have muvo n200 256mb. i try it on friends comp, it wasnt recognized first,but in other usb port worked fine...

Try this:
Disconnect the player and then open Device Manager.
Select View Devices by Connection and Show Hidden Devices.
Under your USB connection find all entries for your player including ones for Player Recovery Device and remove them all.
Close Device Manager, restart PC?and then connect your player.
Try this and let us know what happens.

From the FAQ post:

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.

Muvo N200's recording co

I'm very interested in the Muvo N200 for doing field recording, but I need to know the encoding format that it uses when recording via the line in port (and via the mic if they're different).
Thanks,
Jim

I'm using the N200 to record li've sessions of my band, and have definitely had clipping problems. Clipping behavior is hard to diagnose but my inspection of the waveform is showing a numerical overflow Here's a <A HREF="http://moebi.us/misc/MuVoN200Clipping.gif]pic of a sample waveform[/url].
If there is an overflow or clip indicator, it disappears after it happens, which is the incorrect behavior as far as I'm concerned. A Clip indicator on a recording device like this should probably stick around until you've either pressed a button or stopped recording (perhaps this could be a toggle.) Most audio software I've used has the same paradigm. The only other alternati've is to have a level meter with clipping-hold peaks.
But I'd like to see the clickless firmware upgrade a bit sooner first.

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:
