Muvo Slim Question's

Hi dear's,
I use Iri'ver IFP-890 and 880 before.
But, i buy a Muvo Slim/256, now.Battery life is good, Earphones sound quality is good. Menu system/button design and computer communications is extreme good Sound level is normal. Sound quality is good.Radio is very good for a mp3 player.Firmware quality is very good.But i dont find answer for this questions...Plug USB, starting charge... dont empty, plug reply USB, starting charge.. ...... recharge, dont empty, recharge, dont empty, rechargeis this a problem for Battery
Is there a option for dont charge request with per plug... ?If answer is a passi've USB, i can !And my firmware version is ..03
is there a possibility for increase the sound level ? ( Maybe a firmware ? )
I like Creative Bye from Turkey.

The Slim charges off USB, so there's no way to prevent this from happening when you connect it to the USB.
This isn't a bad thing though as the Slim uses a Lithium Ion battery which prefers to be top-up charged.

Question about muvo slim

Hi ... I currently own a creative muvo slim 52 and I was wondering if there is a faster way to scroll through the songs instead of one by one.
Thanks

I' ve never try to play a japaneese song(with japaneese characters) but i think that if u set ID3 tag with japaneese characters the muvo will display all ok

Muvo slim battery charg

Ok, this might be a dumb question but i'm very green in the area of mp3 players. I recevied a Muvo Slim for christmas. After some reformatting problems, it now works great. (Thanks to this message board) Anywho, I was wondering how to know if your battery is charging? I know you have to plug it into your computer with the usb cord and I've done that, but does the battery icon flash or something? I think there is a little lightening bolt that comes across the battery when it's plugged into the computer. Sorry if this question sounds so dumb, I just don't know. :smileytongue:

Yes when it's charging, there is a lightning flash symbol flashing across the battery indicator.

MuVo Slim User Manual w/o Comput

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,
Katrina

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!

MuVo Slim transfer er

Hi. I'm frustrated with the tech support I'm getting in email, so hopefully somebody here can help me. I had songs on my slim and everything was working fine until all of a sudden, I started getting this error message. It says: error tranferring file. There is an option at the bottom not to show this message for all other transfers, and a countdown at the top that automatically closes the window in a few seconds.
Tech support said to d/l the new firmware, so I saved all my songs (I'm in Creative media source, by the way), and did the firmware. Now I get the same error when I try to put all the old songs back on there. Tech's next email gave instuctions on how to reformat, but I got stuck in the middle because they gave me instructions for the wrong player! Next email said: "Here are the steps to format your player. It is not necessary to do the format now yet." Huh? Since I didn't know what else to do, I went ahead and tried to follow these steps:
- remove the battery from muvo slim- connect the player via the cable to the usb port of system.- Open the device manager- Is there a recovery device class appearing in device manager?- Next update the latest firmware and follow onscreen instructions. (Ensure format data area is checked)
What is a device manager? Does any of this make sense? I'm running Windows 98.

Yes, I tried reformatting. That's where I got stuck on where the device manager is. The last person told me how to find it (thank you, by the way), but the next step said "is there a recovery device class appearing in device manager?" And there's not.
I asked tech support the same questions I posted here, and more, but they are giving me really confusing and garbled up info. Yes, I know they're trying their best, but I'm still frustrated. This is how they answered the same questions I posted here:
The other Options listed are Firmware update.Up-to-date firmware are equipped with fixes or additional features and we can also determine whether there is any problem with the current firmware on playerAnd the Setup of the Creative Player Bundled Software Creative MediaSource. For Transferring and Playback and Ripping of Song Tracks.Please also note that for any drm protected files, they have to be transferred over using theMediaSource program, due to the license issue.Your valuable feedback and understanding have been highly appreciated.
That did not answer one of my questions, and didn't make much sense. I know what I need to do is call and speak to a human being, but their hours are inconvenient with my work schedule.

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 USB Cable

So I got my new Muvo Slim today, I install all the drivers then plug it in, it finds it. But then after about 30 seconds or so windows gives me an error saying the device encountered an error and connot be regconized anymore. So I try try a few different times and it does the same thing every time. Finally, just by chance I decided to try a new USB 2.0 cable, I have the exact same kind for my external HD only difference is my External has to PC end connections for power, I just didn't pluf the secondary power one in for the Slim player. Anyways, since I did everything seems to be working fine, it found it, installed it, and it hasn't messed up yet, the battery even charged. But here is my question:
The USB2.0 cable that came with my Slim, the screwed up non-working cable, says 28AWG/2C+28AWG/2C on it. But the one for my External HD, which I am using on the Slim at the moment says 28AWG/PR and 24AWG/2C on it. Now is there anything to do with voltage on these cables that using the one for my External HD might mess up or fry my Muvo Slim? Or is the fact that they are both just USB2.0 cables fine and nothing will happen?

All USB should be 5V, and cables are normally interchangeable and standard, so I'm sure it will be fine. Strange though that the cable was faulty.

MuVo Slim Batt

My daughter received a MuVo Slim as a Christmas present. The battery that came with it has a white label the surrounds the black plastic case for the battery. There appears to be a large air bubble between the lable and the plastic case which makes the battery fit EXTREMELY tightly into the MP3 player. In fact, it such a tight fit that I am sure once the battery is inserted, it will never be able to be removed. Having read some of the postings on this site, it appears taht occasionally it may be necessary to remove the battery at times (especially if I ever want to replace it). My questions is - can the white battery label be safely removed so that the battery fits more loosely into the player? Or is the label an intricate part of the battery?

I would recommend you contact Creative Support direct.

Need help - Error while updating the firmware of Muvo Slim using the recovery t

Hi ,
While I am trying to update my Muvo slim firmware using the recovery tool it throwd up an error. And from then onwards if I am trying to power it up it won't.
If I again try to update the firmware, it throws up the error that "Unable to Write to Device: Device Time out".
I am afraid that my Muvo slim got bricked. Can you please help me in recovering the same.
PS: My PC OS is Windows XP.
Thank & Regards
ksraghava?

On my XP system, the last time I wanted to reload the firmware, I had to remove all of my Creative software programs,?and then revert my Windows Media Player back to 0 and then use The Recovery Tool. It is a bit of a pain, but does seem to work when you are getting errors with the firmware download.
luvmyrescuedogs
Almost forgot. Make sure your player is fully charged or has a fresh battery before starting any firmware download.

Did you try a full reformat and firmware update? Have you spoken to Customer Support yet to see if they can help?
Did you try creating a folder on the player, and copying some MP3 files into it's

Problem with Muvo Slim

My dad has a new Muvo Slim and I am trying to put music on it for him. I can get it to copy up to 28Mb but not to fill it, is there a setting that I have wrong?
Thanks
Kizzmo

Make sure you have the latest firmware.
Also try the player on another PC to see if the issue is with your PC, or some incompatibility with your PC and the Slim.

[MuVo Slim] Charging from USB p

Hi
Over on the Nomadness MuVo forum someone asked about how to charge a MuVo Slim when away from their PC as it charges via the USB port.
I answered that if all they needed was a powered USB hub then they could buy an external, self-powered hub and then connect the player to it, without it being connected to a PC.
Would this work or does the player need to be connected to the PC for the charging cycle to begin? Or does it just need the power that the port supplies?
PB

Yes, I also tried this with a CyberPower 420 MP USB hub that is battery powered with an on/off switch http://www.cyberpowersystems.com/CPH420MP.asp But even with that hub turned on, it would not charge the Slim unless I connected the hub to a PC.
I use the Zen Micro charger to charge my Slim when I'm not near a PC. I had read an SSR post on this board where he recalled that someone had said that combo (Slim and Micro charger) would work. The Zen Micro charger provides 000mA, which is high for a flash MP3 device (higher is good) from 5V. So I tried it and it has worked fine. (I had a Zen Micro as well as the Slim, so it cost me nothing extra.)

It charges via its USB socket, so you can't use the Xtra's power supply.
What is displayed in screen and can i use drag and drop transfer method from windows explorer?
It works as a flash dri've, so appears as a dri've letter in Windows Explorer.
Finally can i use the mediasource 3.20 softwear update i now use with my zen or must i input different mediasource version for slim than one i use with the zen? thanks matt
Go to Nomadworld.com downloads and you'll see the Slim listed there with MediaSource and the MuVo plugin.

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 works perfect except Recovery Device Mode. H

Hello,
Recently my MuVo Slim has started to be recognized by my PC as a STMP3500 device and so I have run the "Mass Storage Drivers" programm to make it a Player Recovery Device to handle it.
Currently everything about the device works perfect except causing extra work while connecting to the PC: I have to run the Firmware update program each time I want to browse the files in MuVo Slim.
Only after the message "A device has been detected in recovery mode and is being initialized. Please wait..." is seen, recognizes the PC the MuVo as an external storage device. (Thereafter I simply close the window of firmware update program)
Btw, at that point if I click 'start' and upgrade the firmware of MuVo (or downgrade, that makes no difference) it is then again not recognized by PC! In this case, I have to go through the step I've described again: Run the Firmware update program , see the "A device has been detected in recovery mode and is being initialized. Please wait..." message and close the firmware update window, and so on...
Now what I'd like to learn is if there 's a way to skip this step of making the PC recognize the MuVo Slim? Please remember that my MuVo Slim works perfectly except that.
Thanks

Does anybody have solution? I still have to run Firmware Update program
"MuVoSlim_PCFW_LF__3_02.exe" each time I want to browse files within my MuVo Slim.
Please help!
