My Zen Nano says "No Recording" after I just loaded a few MP3 files to

I used the Zen Nano Media Explorer to load the mp3s and everything looks good. I can see the folders and files in Windows Explorer. But when I disconnect it from the computer and power it on, I see the message No Recording.
Need help since it's my sister-in-laws Zen and I was trying to load her music for her.

I have some MP3s in the root, and in two folders. There also is a file named WMPInfo.xml
It use to work. There were MP3s on it when I started. I deleted those and replaced them with her selection.
If I format the dri've will it remove the firmware? or just the music files?
I haven't contacted support yet since I don't know if she has the product registered yet. I was hoping it was just something simple that I did wrong.

The manual that came on the CD with your player (or get it from the website - see the link below) has this info in. It is much better than the hardcopy manual.

Trial for Master Collection says "Trial Expired" after I just downdloaded.

I just downloaded Abode CS4 Master Collection Trial Version and all the programs in the suite except CS4 Photoshop (64-bit) say "Trial Has Expired". PhotoShop (64-bit) comfirms I still have 29 days left. I am running Win 7 (64-bit) Professional. Please help thanks.

We can't. Once the clocks goes, it's gone.
That said, this is the type of thing that might happen if you don't install the 32 bit apps in the Program Files (x86) folder.

I am trying to log into my bank and it says browser unsoported after I have loaded Firefox 29

My Bank is Absa Bank it is part of the Barclays Group when I want to log on it opens the log on page with a Browser Unsupported Message and I can't go any further this was just after I have updated my Firefox to ver 29

I tested a different link initially, since the OP didn't mention the link and I had to go looking for it.
When I tested the following link, both Firefox and Internet Explorer got a dimmed page and a spinning circle icon that never went away. That's a problem with the site's user agent sniffing. Only they can fix it. Click the "Contact Us" link in the lower left corner.

As a workaround, you can add the following filter to [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/ Adblock Plus]. It won't get rid of the "Browser Unsupported" nag message, but that seems to just go away after you click it.

If you don't have Adblock Plus, you can use the following in Stylish. If you don't have Stylish either, you can use it in the userContent.css file.

Hopefully the site works correctly after that. I don't have an account there, so I can't test further.

Getting rid of LE8 after I just loaded LS9

This is probably not the most intelligent of posts, but I want to be safer than sorry...do i have to do any sort of moving around of logic files from LE8 to somewhere else (since I just bought LS 9, not the upgrade) to make sure that they dont get erased when I uninstall LE8?
thankyas

Can i delete the ones without the 9.0.0
Probably you should do the opposite.
In recent Logic updates, what he does is leave the old version behind, with a new name. So if you look in your Applications folder, you might end up seeing items like this:
Logic Pro 9.0.0
Logic Pro 9.0.1
Logic Pro 9.0.2
Logic Pro 9.1.0
Logic Pro
The one you want to keep is the one with no version number at the end. Because that's the current one.
Why does he leave those old ones around? Because for one reason or another someone might need them. But you probably don't, so trashing them is probably a good idea.

Zen Nano organizat

I have recently bought a Zen Nano, and I love it. I love it's size, its color, and it's layout. When I got it home for the first time, I installed MediaSource, and this Zen Nano Plus Media Explorer. I also use Musicmatch to purchase and exchange DRM music on it. I have a few albums on it. My problem is that it is not organized by Artist, then Album, then song... It seems as though its organized by just the track. To fix this I tried putting all my music into folders entitled their artist name, then album. Now it skips directly to the album folder. I would like to know how to organize music so I can get to it by Artist, then Album, then Song. If possible. If not then why would they waste space with a GB dri've in it.

The flash memory players work on folders and filenames not tag info. The only tag displayed is the title tag.
Any folders without music files in are ignored. A workaround I suggested for someone else was to create a dummy file - make a? one second recording of nothing, convert it to an mp3 file then put a copy of it in each Artist folder. Then you should be able to use the Skip Folder function to pass through the Artist folder to the enclosed Album folders.
Hope it works as I haven't tried it myself.

My Zen Nano is dead! Help me!

Hello there!
I've got one Zen Nano for almost 0 months and it never gave me any trouble. It was working perfectly till yesterday.
Today, when I tried to turn it on, it turned the backlight on, displayed the Zen Nano logo and right after it, it shut down. I've tought it was a problem with the FAT, so I tried to format it, without any success, windows explorer would freeze when I right click the dri've...
The other thing that could be wrong, was the firmware, so I downloaded the firmware update thingy (I've done it before, but there was a new version I didn't have yet), turned it on holding the Play/Pause button to get in the recovery mode. It recognized my version and said it would update to the new one. I said ok and waited for a while.
A few moments later it showed the following message "Error - could not perform SCSI command."
The updated closed, and since then, my Zen Nano is completely dead.
Is there anything I could try? Any tip? Suggestion?
Thank you for your attention.

I've updated to .2.blahblahblah and right after it was finished updating it turned off only to never turn on again.
With a battery dead
Without a battery (plugged into USB) dead
No recovery
No USB recognition
It's a lifeless lump of crap right now. What a waste of money. Its only 2 months old....argh.

Problem with transfer and ordering of tracks on new Zen Nano P

I recieved my Gb Zen Nano Plus player on wednesday and transferred quite a few tracks to the player that night. They transferred fine, I was able to customize the playing order and all the songs play fine.
But since then, I have been unable to transfer tracks to the player or change the order of the tracks. The player is recognised when I plug it in, but I am just unable to do anything with the tracks!! I have plenty of memory left and it isn't anything to do with the USB.
I really need to know what's going on and how to fix it :-(
Help!!!

What error message do you get when you try to transfer the extra files?
Are all files in the root folder? If so see the FAQ.

Zen Nano Plus - Dead after 20 minu

Just received my player this morning. Connected and transferred a couple of albums via windows explorer. Disconnected and had a listen, sound was ok. Reconnected to add some more music. Paste operation froze windows explorer, safely remove hardware button did nothing and the only option was a hard reset. Now player wont switch on at all, not even a logo screen and pc doesn't recognize it so cannot reflash the firmware. Most disappointing.

Thanks for the tips shellshock. I spent quite some time yesterday trying to bring the player back to life to no avail, so its now winging its way back to Amazon.
Basically it went something like:
: 8am. Grab parcel from postman and unwrap excitedly
2: Plug player into spare usb port, my 64 bit OS recognised it straight away as a 'Zen Nano Plus' so no additional driver install necessary which is just as well because there doesn't seem to be one for 64 bit versions of Windows
3: Open windows explorer and copy two folders across to player as with any UMS device (Supertramp and Erik Satie no less)
4: Unplug player, have a listen for a few minutes and farmiliarise with the menu operations and manual
5: Reconnect player to PC, which again recognizes it correctly
6: Attempt to copy and paste a further folder of mp3's to the player using windows explorer at which point onimously the hourglass mouse cursor indicates work in progress without any sign of a progress bar appearing to indicate files in transit (the player does however display a data transfer in progress animation
7: After a couple of minutes ctl-alt-del clearly indicates windows explorer (and hence the data transfer operation) have stopped responding (my pc it should be noted has a respectable spec, was built last summer is not crash prone for no reason)
8: Bollocks says I, this is not quite going to plan. Forcing the process closed via task manager and attempting to use the 'safely remove hardware' function in the system tray locks the computer up totally forcing a hard reset
9: The Nano in the meantime has stopped displaying the data transfer animation so I unplug it from the PC and power it down thinking 'oh well, hardware is known to crash occassionally, i'll need to recopy the files after a reboot no doubt'. Hah, I should be so lucky.
0: Nano now refuses to start full stop. Not even a logo. Removing and replacing batteries minutes later as recommended has no effect, holding down the power button for over a minute has no effect, different batteries have no effect
: The PC now seems to think the dead Nano is a 'STMP3500' (i'm guessing this is the chipset used by the player) and furthermore wants drivers to match. Downloading latest drivers from Creative is useless as they are only 32 bit and will not work with Windows XP 64bit, so the PC is now having none of the dead Nano
2: Attemping to activate the emergency reset by attaching the Nano to a USB port (various ports tried) whilst holding down the power button for 20 seconds or so (several times) proves futile as all my PC now wants is drivers for a goddam 'STMP3500'!
3: Latest firmware from Creative does run ok but totally fails to find the player
4: 3pm. Player is unceremoniously re-wrapped with curses into its packaging and marched to the post office for despatch to Amazon's returns department for a refund
My guess is that the failed data transfer managed to wipe or corrupt the player firmware. I'm sure all computer users are used to system crashes now and again, but they certainly wouldn't expect to have to buy new hardware each time it happened. Creative R&D department should maybe revisit the way the Nano's OS is written and protected.
After all that i'm still searching for a decent mp3 player but can find none to match the spec of the Nano at the price. Reviews of cheaper alternati'ves indicate poor battery life and questionable sound quality. Iri'ver T30 doesn't support UMS so thats a no go.
All in all a pretty negati've experience. Perhaps I was just unlucky, maybe once the refund comes through I might even give the Nano another shot, especially as the price has just dropped again by about 3 quid on Amazon......

I have an ipod nano and use one click digital to download books from my library. My nano says I have 2449 songs which is 65 books. I have deleted all my playlists after I listen to the audiobook.

I have an ipod nano and use one click digital to download books from my library. My nano says I have 2449 songs which is about 65 books. I have deleted all my playlists after I listen to the audiobook. Now I get a message saying I don't have enough room on my nano to transfer new books to it. My nano is 16 GB and my operating system is Windows 7.

iTunes and Apple's devices work as an ecosystem. iTunes is designed to sync with Apple's products, not anyone else's. You'll need your songs in a format compatable with the Samsung phone and to use the software transfer program supplied/recommended. It is essentially not an Apple/iTunes problem. You may have better luck finding the information you need on Samsung's forums.

No connection after installing firmware 1.10.03 on brand new Zen Nano P

Hi all,
After I installed the new firmware, .0.03, my Zen Nano Plus is no longer recognised by my computer (it seems to work fine otherwise). What should I do?
I have tried this on not just one, but three different computers, with no luck, even though all three computers recognise another Zen Nano Plus (my son's) which still runs on .03.02.
I followed the instructions for installation of new firmware, so I have installed a "Player Recovery Device", but I don't know how to access/activate it in order to get back to the older version of the firmware. As far as I can tell, the relevant page on the discussion forum
(http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=dap&message.id=3)
and the relevant page on the Creative Knowledge Base (SID4794) do not actually tell you how to ACCESS the recovery mode but only how to INSTALL it (whereas the info for other players, e.g. MuVo2, does tell you how to access recovery mode).
I seem to be pretty much in the situation described by "takabanana" (post dated 0-04-2006),
http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/
message?board.id=dap&message.id=9493&query.id=9573 9#M9493,
but I do not understand how he fixed his problem (What do you mean by "until it caught"? What happens when it "catches"?).
So I would be extremely happy about any advice you might have on
- . how to get my Zen Nano Plus back to Firmware .03.02, and/or
- 2. how to make my computer recognise my Zen Nano Plus with Firmware .0.03.
yours, Sten

Thanks to both responses so far.
I did what PB suggested and everything is fine now (running .03.02 again).
Apart from the obvious problems with .0.03 that almost everybody seems to be having, my particular problem was that I did not understand that the Zen Nano Plus is in Recovery Mode (and thus accessible to the loading of different firmware) AS SOON AS it turns up in the Device manager as "Player Recovery Device". I thought that something more had to happen.
yours, Sten

Zen Nano Plus: Line in recording from micropho

I've got a Creative Zen Nano Plus and was very happy about its ability to encode MP3s from the line in jack.
Since the integrated microphone is not very good for recording (especially loud music) I tried to connect a microphone to the line in jack. Unfortunately I had to recognise that it doesn't record anything no matter if "Sync Track" is on or off.
I'd be glad if someone can tell me what exactly the problem is. Do I need some kind of special microphone (I read somewhere that it has to be "pre-amped", whatever that may mean) or is the line in jack designed for just recording from devices like a CD player? Help is very much appreciated. :-)

Big bump.
I did some research quite a while ago and thought that I should report the results for people also having that problem.
A line-in jack is not a microphone-in jack. The difference between them is that the former is not supplied with electricity, so it can't power simple external microphones on its own. Thus, a real microphone-in jack is needed, though none of the Creative products has one included. You will still need a pre-amped microphone to get recordings with proper volume, though. A good and cheap solution is the Archos Stereo Microphone that comes with a preamplifier including volume adjust (http://www.archos.com -> Accessories -> Audio accessories).
Microphone-in jacks can be found for example in the iri'ver iFP-7** and iFP-8** series. Since this players are discontinued and newer models don't have these jacks, it's kind of hard to still use that feature.

Connection Detection! Zen Nano. It says it isn't connected... But it

I connected it to my USB, I have windows ME and I tried both USB ports. the Lcd displays a diagram showing it is connected but the Zen Nano Mwdia Explorer says it isn't! I download a driver but to no avail, a message popped up and said it could not find a specific file. it asked for my window ME disk. I clicked skip this file, and it just shows zen nano not connected to USB

Zen nano Plus, say i have alot more space but i cant upload more so

I just got the Zen nano Plus and it says on the organizer I have 698.3 MB of space left and I cant upload any more songs at all, anyone have an idea of whats wrong?
thanks

See the section "I can't seem to fit any more files on my flash player yet I have free space, why?" in the FAQ post.

Record line in music with Zen Nano 51

how can we record the music with line in?
which line in?
can we use earphone jack as line in?

It's the Zen Nano Plus that has a line in port. It would be on the bottom of the player (opposite end from the headphone jack), next to the USB port and have Line-In written next to it.
There's menu options to recording using it on the player.
