My Zen Micro keeps freezing up when i shut it d

as stated in my subject, my Zen micro keeps freezing when i try to shut it off (it stays at the "shutting down player" screen). then, no buttons work and the only thing for me to do is take the battery out and put it back in. Is this happening to anyone else? I sent it back to them last time for this and they said they "fixed" it, but they mailed it back to me with the same problem not repaired. kind of annoying. Does anyone know anything more about this or if i'm doing something wrong when i'm shutting it off (not that I imagine anyone could possibly screw that up, but who knows). Thanks a lot.

What else have you tried? For example, have you worked through the options in Rescue Mode?

  • Zen Micro Keeps Getting Random Free

    Just bought myself a Zen Micro 5gb yesterday. Updated the firmwire to the latest version--version .02.05.
    The problem is that the Zen Micro keeps on freezing randomly during the playback of music. When it freezes, the only way to reboot is through taking out the battery and having it rebuild the library again. I'm quite happy with the purchase but this presistent problem sounds like it's going to lead to bigger ones.

    It could be your musics that you uploaded into the player. How did you do transfer your music?... If you use MediaSource.. I would recommend upgrade that software also; from www.nomadworld.com
    Try reload your music after you have the latest version of the Mediasource.
    Have fun,

    my nokia 5800 keeps freezing/crashing when i try to view my pictures and videos? what do i do

    Try clearing privacy data in browser to get a bit of ram back. if no good , do hard reset, you'll need to re-set up phone so back up first. Then type *#7370# and use passkey 12345 and phone will re-start and be like'out of the box' your memory card will not be affected.
    Good Luck

    Hi Blane756,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has steps for a different issue, a gray screen at startup, that I think would still be worth trying for your freezing issues:

  • Cable boxes keep freezing up when surfing

    Cable boxes keep freezing up when surfing, have to unplug to reset, delay in response to entries cause wrong entires i.e. enterin 212 but the two does not show so you press it again and again next thing you know you have 222212 instead of 212. COMCAST does not provide an email address for its customers to file complaints because they do not want to get them...Had to try multiple account names before I found one that was not taken...
     

    If you look around the forum, you will find a email address to send to.  Also on the forum, you can post your issue and someone from Comcast will followup, you can do a online chat if you don't want to call.  
    Pretty much if you email, they will just call you back anyway so they can confirm your identity, since it's easy to spoof someone's identify to get into your Comcast account and make changes.  Identify theft runs rampant these days using email.
    The Comcast team has been notified and will followup, expect a response here by tomorrow.

  • Keep freezing up when put to sleep, will not wake up. iMac G5, system 10.5.8, help

    Keep freezing up when put to sleep, will not wake up. iMac G5, system 10.5.8, help. What version of Flash do I need?

    Probably the intermittent problem that effects some users (including me at various times). It seems that Bluetooth fails to wake properly. The 'fix' that works for me is to go to System Preferences>Energy Saver and set 'computer sleep' to 'never'.

  • Creative Zen Micro 5GB: Freezing on transfers & during playback (Please He

    Ok, Here is a problem I am having.
    My Zen is freezing no matter what program i use to place music on it.
    The transfer will begin and rarely get or 2 songs on but more often it will reach about 30% on the first song, freeze and remain here till i unplug it and go into recovery mode by taking the battery out.
    THINGS I HAVE TRIED:
    *Changing the firmware (at least 0 times for each firmware available on this site)
    *Formatting & Defragging (Don't even get me started how many times)
    *Using different software (WMP0, Creative Sync and Every other one included with Creative Zen Micro Explorer)
    *Upgrading software
    Now i am a qualified electronic repairer and i have dismantled my zen and a friends (whom dropped it and bought a new one) i have from here changed the hard dri've thinking this may be the source of the problem (yes i am aware the warranty is void now but when i placed the battery in the first time i got it the sticker broke) This has done nothing so i have placed the original HD back in.
    I have NO idea what to do now!
    I can not afford a new mp3 player, have no warranty YET i do have the ability to repair this by myself.
    If anyone has ANY suggestions whatsoever i am willing to try them, of course still sensible.
    Please PLEASE PLEASE! help me out. i will be gratefully for any help i can get.

    Why does Creative make it so easy to Reload the firmware, and why do soo many people choose this option!?!?!?
    /end venting
    pdk, your task now is to get your computer to recognize your player. I have a feeling that you are using a v2 firmware. Do you see the words MTP Device anywhere when you connect the player to your computer? If so then follow the steps listed <a href='http://www.nomadness.net/modules.php?name=FAQ&myfaq=yes&id_cat=8&categories =Nomad+Jukebox+Zen#228' target=_blank>here[/url]. Then use the firmware provided on your CD and see if it can recognize your player. You might have problems since you choose the Reload firmare option in Recovery Mode.

  • Zen Micro constantly FREEZES during FIRMWARE UPGRADE - totally bricked!

    Hey,
    It's just like it says. My Zen Micro currently has no firmware besides the recovery OS because I chose "reload firmware."? I try to upgrade to both versions of the Zen Micro firmware (.x and 2.x) and as soon as my computer gets started and the Zen Micro has the little "data exchange" icon on there, the computer and Zen Micro hang. The progress bar gets nowhere and it's the Micro that's frozen, not the computer or the firmware upgrade program (I'm a software engineer, I know if it's the program freezing, and it is NOT).
    How in blazes is this happening? How can I stop my Micro from freezing? It's all so confusing!
    By the way, stats about the PC used:
    OS: Windows XP Sp2
    Windows Media Player 0 installed
    USB 2.0 ports

    I have exactly the same issue. Just tried to run the v.x to v2.x firmware upgrade and its been in recovery mode ever since. I tried to run the clean up / format / reload firmware option but it didn't work it just keeps coming back to the recovery mode. Anyone know how to fix this ? I was due to be getting on a 20 hour flight with this one as my company in half a days time so anyone with any good suggestions feel free to tell me ASAP!
    ThanksSteve

  • My Micro Keeps Freezi

    I've just bought my zen micro, and when I go to rip my cd's to it, the micro freezes after just a couple of tracks have been copied, leaving the shaded 'docked' image on the screen. I have to remove the battery cos the touch pad won't work and nor will the off switch. I try to disconnect and it sometimes responds but it still doesn't change the fact that the songs I tried to transfer didn't work. Help me please!

    Try SID 4794 on the knowledge base. Once you have the player into recovery mode run the cleanup.

  • HT201412 why does my iphone keep freezing and when i keep going on to settings it comes up blank and shuts down the app

    i would like to know why my iphone 4s keeps freezing alot and everytime i go on settings it goes blanks and shut the app down?
    i cant use setttings at all

    Why?  Not sure, could be lots of different reasons.
    However, if you'd like to know how to fix the issue, then have you tried the troubleshooting steps listed inthe article that you linked from?
    When in doubt: Restart, Reset, Restore from Backup, Restore as New.

  • Creative zen micro keeps crash

    My c, unlike other people who seem to find it crashing on the welcome screen mine crashes on the screen when tranferring music from my PC to it or vice versa. Please can anyone help i dont know what to do

    my zen micro PHOTO did this once, make sure the connection is good, change usb ports (preferably to one on the BACK of your computer on your motherboard (around the other ports)
    and set it down and let it try again.
    if that doesnt work may need to update the firmware and hope it was a hiccup iin the old version.

  • Fix for Zen micro photo freezing at start

    This is to confirm what I read on a previous post. My micro photo had frozen at the start up, no keys worked and I had to take the battery out to turn off. I was waiting for an RMA and read on a post that the problem could be solved by lightly striking the unit on hard surface while in the on position, let me say, "THIS DOES WORK AND NO LOSS OF CONTENT!". The hard dri've unit seems to get stuck for different reasons, this can be confirmed by a soft clicking or buzzing coming from the unit while in the stuck position. The striking of the unit must jar the hard dri've back into position with no apparent loss of content. So before you re-format, re-install firmware or send the unit in for repair, try this, it worked for me.

    THIS DOES WORK. when i first purchased my zen micro
    i had dropped it and when i took out the battery
    and put it back in, it froze at the creative screen
    after paying fees and getting it fixed, there was
    no problems for about a year. today it froze out
    of nowhere during a song and once again
    had frozen on the creative screen. after reading
    this post (and also reading why NOT to do it) i decided
    to just try it because i would have to replace it anyway.
    so i turn the mp3 on, and lightly banged it on my desk
    to my surprise it lit up and the screen said "rebuilding library"
    and started playing. SO IT DOES WORK!
