MuVo Slim Cannot Play w

I bought a MuVo Slim 256MB but apparently i can't play the music stored in it... The other functions are working fine. Can someone help me ASAP. Thank you.

Do these WMA files have Digital Rights Management protection? e.g. are they from an online store. If so, you must transfer them with MediaSource or Windows Media Player.

  • Muvo Slim Not playing fi

    My recently purchased Muvo Slim is no longer playing music files. It will play Audible files since I upgraded the firmware. When I try and sync the device with WMP0 the program locks.
    I've looked all over the KB to no avail. Actually, the whole KB is really quite lacking in content. I've filed a customer service request but I'm not hopeful. Does anyone know how to reflash to a previous firmware? I think my problems began with the new firmware for Audible files.

    I had the same problem, less then 48 hrs after buying a Slim.
    I had reformatted it and did so in Fat32. I then had that error. Reformat it as FAT and it will work agian.
    (To Reformat ...
    Open "My Computer". Find the "Removable Storage Dri've" the Muvo made, and right click it. You will see this:<IMG src="http://www.acsontario.biz/help/muvo_reformat_step.JPG">
    Select the option "Format".
    <IMG src="http://www.acsontario.biz/help/muvo_reformat_step2.JPG">
    Select the dropdown box option of "FAT".
    Click "Start" and it will reformat. For a faster reformat you can select "Quick Format".
    SECONDLY ..... the new "Scroll" feature works by HOLDING THE JOG WHEEL LEFT OR RIGHT to 'ff' or 'rw' thru the song, like you would with an old CD Player, tape deck or VHS machine.Message Edited by kmodorex on -3-2004 03:23 AM

  • Muvo Slim download mp3 files only but not playing!

    i just bought this Muvo Slim with 256MB memory.. if i plugged it on my computer it can be opened and still can download files.. but once you remove it from the computer, it wont open.. even the opening logo nor the the blue backlight won't open!, it started acting this way right after i plugged it on my friends mp3 (not creative) player.. it has a USB output connector, and 5volts output which is the voltage as a regular USB provides!.. can this still be fixed?.. cause i did tried loading the uograded firmware, and it did recognize the player, but when disconnected to the computer it just went blank!.. need help here! thanks!

    On Linux you need proper GStreamer support to play mp3 files with the HTML5 media player.
    *media.gstreamer.enabled = true
    *Bug 794282 - Enable GStreamer in official builds

  • Muvo Slim - Track starts playing automatically when turned

    With my Muvo Slim 52, firmware .0.05, whenever I turn the unit on, it starts to play a track, EVEN if there was NO track playing when I turned off the unit. In a similar situation, after I have transferred files onto the unit - as soon as I disconnect the USB cable - the unit powers itself on, and the first track starts to play - before I even press the play button. QUESTIONS --- () Is "automatically playing track after power on" a normal behavior? (2) Is there any way to stop this i.e. so that a track only starts playing (or resumes) when I MYSELF press play? (3) If not, how can such a feature be requested in a future firmware revision?

    Jason,
    Thanks. I just downloaded the latest firmware for my MuVo Slim (..03 -- previous version was .02.0) and it has corrected the problem! Perfect!

  • MuVo Slim issue - randomly playing tracks

    I recently bought a MuVo Slim 256MB MP3 player and have uploaded an assortment of tracks (5) from various artists, albums, etc. I'd like the player to randomly select from all of the tracks, which are not stored in separate folders.
    This feature works, that is, it randomly selects from the 5 tracks (i.e., starts at 26, 49, , 7, 0, 24, 28, , etc.).
    But, when the unit is turned off (holding down the play/pause button) and then back on, the unit will start the music playing at the last track played (say , for example...which is perfect), but then it will jump back to the first randomly selected track 26 and will continue in the previous order (i.e., 26, 49, , 7, etc.). As a result, most tracks are never actually heard because the list always starts back at the begining. Very frustrating.
    I've tried the different random options, but nothing seems to get the unit to deviate from it's defined random list.

    Jason,
    Thanks. I just downloaded the latest firmware for my MuVo Slim (..03 -- previous version was .02.0) and it has corrected the problem! Perfect!

  • MuVo Slim 128M, cannot transfer files to PC but being asked to format: Please kindly h

    After getting connected to PC and trying to browse the files in my MuVo Slim 28M, I was asked to format the dri've before. I asked someone at the shop and he told me to install the firmware. But there is no way to get the files stored. I bought it about a year and 4 months ago and have been using it properly, i.e., always remove hardware in Window before unplugging.
    Could you please kindly advise if there is any method to get the files? They are important recorded files that I don't want to lose.
    Thank you so much for your time and assistance,
    Sumet

    It doesn't sound good if you're getting this message. About all you can do is test on another PC to see if you have the same problem.

  • LCD on MuVo Slim is dead.

    The LCD on my MuVo Slim 256 player is not displaying any text or images. Up until now, the player has been great.
    The MP3 player still works, that is, it will turn on/off and will play music, but I cannot see anything on the display. The display will light-up blue when powered on/off, but no text or images...nothing. I cannot tell how much battery is left, what song I'm on, etc.
    Unfortunately, because I cannot see the menu options, I can't determine if the LCD's settings are just too low to be displayed or what the issue is. Very frustrating.
    I had previously downloaded the firmware update in January to address another issue, which it did. I formatted the MP3 player and re-installed the firmware, but I still can't read the LCD.
    Thanks for your help.Mike B.

    If you've updated the firmware and it hasn't returned then unfortunately it has failed. You'll need to contact Creative Support.

  • MuVo Slim 1GB - Mass Storage Device probl

    I have MuVo Slim GB and I copied there a 55 MB large file (not mp3, but .avi). Now I cannot get it out, the error message is "Cannot read". I can copy any of smaller files, I can move this large file to different folder (of the same mp3 player space). Any help, please?

    "Can you play the file directly from the player (when it's connected and shows up as a memory stick)?"
    -- No, I can't.
    "It's possible the file was corrupted during transfer, can you delete it and copy it again?"
    -- Well, that's the problem. I was hoping not to do that, because the original file I can get just tommorrow.
    "Did you put it in a folder originally?"
    -- Yes.

  • Muvo slim just flash

    Muvo slim is recognized as a dri've with all files visible, but won't play properly. Blue light and Creative logo flashing and battery reading full. Stays on when disconnected from charging USB and won't go off. Is this a firmware issue or hardware problem - before everything is erased! Have tried disconnecting and reconnecting battery.
    Thanks for any help, I cannot see a similar issue here, it is just one month old.

    try going into the rescue mode
    here's the link on how to do it

    do a firmware upgrade or a disk scan (if there is an option)

  • Creative MuVo Slim and WM

    I recently bought a MuVo Slim to supplement my Zen Micro. I like to use WMP0 to organize mu music library and I use playlists heavily. I find that the best way of managing my music os to organize it in playlists the way *I* want them and then synch selected playlists with my device. This works flawlessly with my Zen Micro (using MTP firmware of course).
    But this does not work at all with my MuVo Slim. WMP will transfer music OK and organize it in a folder structure like this on the MuVo Slim:
    \Music\<Artist>\<Album>\<Tracn name>.mp3
    This is fine except that my MuVo Slim won't recognize any music at all. I have played around a bit and moved my music files manually so it's all under one single top directory, e.g. \Music\<Track name>.mp3. The player will then find the files but there is no way to tell WMP0 to organize the music this way, neither do I want it organized like this. I assume the problem is in the firmware and lack of support for multiple subdirectories. I find little (read no) information about this in the manual or other placed I have searched.
    Can anyone confirm this limit and confirm if there is a update planned that will make the device work with WMP0?
    The device is useless to me right now and I'm about to send it back if there is no solution to this (using a different software to manage my music library is not a solution for me).
    Anyone?

    I organize all my music by playlists in WMP0 and depending on my mood I would like to quickly chose which playlist to synchronize with my player. That's why I don't want to do it all manually. And besides, because of the current 2 level directory limitation of the player it won't recognize all the music when I fill the player all the way up ( GB). That is, unless I rename files and reorganize them. That's just too much of a hassle so throwing it out the windows seems the only logical choice, at least that gives me some weird sort of satisfaction.....
    BTW I have a track record of destroying things that does not work as expected. I once invited both the Sales Director of Compaq in my country (before the merger with HP) and the local computer press to witness as I made a big fire of 36 Compaq laptops that my company had nothing but trouble with. The Sales Director of Compaq didn't show up but the computer press did. Needless to say it was a lot of fun.
    So don't you make the mistake of not beliening me when I say I'll throw it out the window :smileyvery-happy:

  • Muvo Slim Format Er

    Hello,
    I'm am having some trouble with my Muvo Slim Mp3 Player. I got it a while ago and it was working fine until one day, all the music was erased and it stopped working. I tried to get it to work myself, having some knowledge on these kinds of things and all I could get was this error. When I was opening the Removable Disk folder it said "Disk J: is not formatted, would you like to format now?", I chose yes, and it would bring up a window. The program would run until the end, and then an error message would come up saying "Cannot format Disk J:". I don't know what else to do, and I've called up your support lines and they don't know what to do either. Maybe you have some ideas?

    Please remove the battery and connect the unit to a PC.
    Any data and/or music on the unit is to be lost. Do not continue unless you can accept that the unit will be erased.
    Download the following firmware file:
    http://uk.europe.creative.com/support/downloads/download2.asp?MainCategory=23&Product=0052&dlcentr ic=9425&Product_Name=MuVo+Slim&OSName=Windows+XP
    Be sure to select "Format Data Area" before you start the upgrade process. Once the Close button becomes acti've, click it. Now, go into My Computer, right click on the MuVo 'removable dri've' and select Format.
    Format the dri've in the FAT32 file system.
    Use the safe hardware removal icon (green arrow near the clock). Once unplugged, you can replace the battery. The player should now operate normally.
    If this is not the case, please contact customer support and request an RMA. Note that this only applies if the player is under 2 months old.

    I purchased MuVo Slim 52. At first, I will only be using it for Voice recording, + FM.
    I do not have PDF, Adobe/Acrobat. (I have webtv). So, I cannot even get the manual.
    Is there any way to get it in print without a PC? Kinko's too expensi've, Library not equipped.
    It seems alot to ask of a friend. (75 pages and/or installing the CD.)
    I just want the instructions!!
    Thanks,

    Hi Jason,
    Well, amazingly enough, tonight, a super guy at Circuit City printed up the whole manual for me.
    But I definitely still have questions, so I will post them.
    Thank you!

    Reload the firmware. If you don't know how to do that, search the forum for information.
