Nomad Muvo TX 128 MB Firmware upgrade trou

Ok, for I can see the last version of the firmware for this player is the .4.02
Here's the link:
http://cl.creative.com/support/downloads/download.asp?sOSName=Windows+XP&region=&Product_Na me=MuVo+TX&Product_ID=9672&modelnumber=&driverlang =034&OS=0&drivertype=0&Image4.x=29&Image4.y=8
I have tried to update the firmware with no succes, but I succesfully updated the firmware to an older version .0.05
Well my problem is that with the older version I just clicked twice and the upgrade started, but with version .4.02 I had to enter in the player recovery mode but I can't...
So, what can I do to update the player to the last firmware version?

Ok, after some troubles I could get the device updated... But now I only see 8 MB of the 24 I used to see on it...
How can I recover the lost space? Because 6 MB's it's a big amount of space unused...

  • Muvo TX FM 512MB: firmware upgrade failed. How to recov

    Hi, I have a Muvo TX FM 52MB. The firmware version used to be .4.0x. I tried to upgrade it to the newest one, .7.04.
    I did everything according to the Instructions on the Creative Download Website. I let the OS to choose the recovery driver for me. The firmware upgrade file correctedly found my player and executed the upgrade. However, there's no instruction that I should check the format data option during upgrade. So I didn't format the data during upgrade. After the upgrade, I couldn't start the player and the PC couldn't recognize it.
    I tried to do the upgrade again. The PC correctly recognized the player as a recovery device. After I started the creative upgrade program, the program founds the recovery device, then started to find any device connected to the computer, finally said that "The device is not connected to the USB port".
    How to solve it's Many thanks.
    Alex

    go to nomadworld.com and find the firmware... READ PROPERLY... it says that u must install a new driver before u upgrade the firmware... mine works... for now, to recover it, press and hold the play button on the player while connecting it and hold the button until a window appears to install the player recovery software... before that, install the new driver first. then let windows search for the driver. windows will clear everything up in ur player. NOW U CAN DO UR firmware update... it doesnt matter whether u want to format or not cause the firmware upgrade program will format your player even though u didnt want to do it. its not the formatting problem.. hope this hel
    ps.
    thanks for reading.

  • No power after firmware upgrade on nomad jukebox zen xtra

    I have the nomad jukebox zen xtra 30gig that froze up over a year ago after i tried to install the firmware upgrade. After the unsuccessful attempt, the mp3 player stopped working.... I mean no power at all. I've changed the battery and recharged the battery from an outside source...still no luck. I can't even try any of the suggestions anyone gives on this site because I have no power.Does anyone have this problem? More important, does anyone have this problem and know of a solution?I've already set my pc back to wmp 0, I have the firmware on the desktop waiting. Now all I need is some power on this unit so that i can try some of the suggestions that seems to be working for people. Thank you

    I have the same problem too, but my unit is a?Creative Normad Junebox Zen Xtra 40GB. I was trying to find a solution to my problem when I read about your problem. I have pressed the reset button, on / off switch, removed the battery, reinstalled the battery, and nothing seems to work. I was hoping you?might get a solution to this problem, so that I might be able to fix my MP3 player. If I hear of a solution, I will let you know, thanks for sharing. Issue:? While updating the firmware to the Zen Xtra 40 GB, the unit powered down and?has never came on again. There seems to be no real reason why the unit should not power up. The battery and the AC adapter are working correctly. I am very disappointed in Creative...

    This is part of the message since you cannot post such a long message in posting.
    This should show how lost you might be with your warranty. If you install the Firmware Upgrade .8.02 your player might be useless. There is no way to make it work again. Not really. If you understand what Creative seems not to do. So dear user - buy a new player. If you want to know what the solution is to make your player work again post here. If there are enough postings I will explain it here. Too sad that Creative does not do it. It is their job not mine... But again - I am not talking about a problem what is nice to have it solved. I am talking about a player that does not work anymore. If you do not want to wait for my solution just send your player for repair - it was not your fault that it does not work anymore...
    This story with the great support was a test of Creative and will be used in a review. So be not surprised to find it somewhere else.
    Here the Creative support story. The first mail is at the bottom. I had to make part and part 2 since you cannot post such a long message here.

I just wanted to test the support at Creative. The problem is real and forces owners of your players to buy a new one since their playes get useless after the upgrade. Not only that Creative puts a faulty upgrade on their homepage - their support is good for nothing. But this was a test of the Creative support. I hardly can believe that Creative is not in the position to solve a very simple problem caused by Creative - what has severe consequences for their customers. But this mail story confirms exactly this. So my advice to any customers - stay away from this company and their products - what is the final result of my test. If you want to know the solution for the problem please contact me again - I am glad to help such a poor company :-)))) For free?

    Hi there?"Firmware problem" happened at the beginning. After trying all the rescue mode options, I then tried to change and install a new disk by using on of the solutions explain at?www.nomadness.net.Well the problem still maintain: when i connect the NOMAD the rescue mode menu appear straight away but when I tried to reload OS with a newer version (last one), always the same message "firmware upgrade failled". My windows media player is 9 version and I?m running win xp. Anybody helps me??RegardsJA

  • Nomad Muvo 128

    On Nomad MuVo 28mb, can it record the FM? Does it use a compact flash disk for extra storage?

    Elisats,
    The MuVo 28MB does not support FM. It uses solid state memory that is built into the player itself and is not upgradable. If you are looking for a player with the ability to be upgraded with SD or MMC cards and FM tuner/recorder then I think the MuVo Sport C00 is the player for you:

    I am sure that this has been posted before however, I am very keen to find out when this upgrade is available for my 30G jokebox?
    Cheers!
    Steve

    This is the long-awaited Zen Xtra firmware upgrade; all current discussion about it is in the sticky at the top of this forum. (Per their policy, the moderators will eventually lock this thread in favor of the sticky.)
    SSR, the top poster on this board (and an expert on Creative players), has an email list on his own website for new Creative player downloads: http://www.stainlesssteelrat.net/njb.htm . Though it's not specific to any one player, you can be sure the Zen Xtra firmware upgrade for MTP/Janus (the technology behind Napster To Go) will be announced there when it's available. (And it works, too: I just got word of the new Audible firmware for my Zen Micro thru that list.)Message Edited by RBBrittain on 09-8-2005 04:07 PM

  • Nomad Muvo "Rewi

    All,
    I recently got a Nomad Muvo (just plain Muvo) from Audible.com, and this is my question:
    Does the Rewind/Fast Forward on the Muvo just really suck?
    or
    Is there something wrong with mine?
    When I try to rewind, what ends up happening is that the audio sort of stutters, and I can wait for it to stutter around 5 or 6 times and it'll still be maybe ONE second past where I started. If I wait just a few moments longer, it has suddenly rewound a pretty large amount, like 30 seconds to a minute, at least. It isn't like a CD player where it rewinds pretty smoothly and you can more or less tell where in the track you are. The pamphlet I got with the player said that holding the rewind button down was the right way to rewind, and the longer you hold it down, the faster it goes...but this is pretty ridiculous, it's either go back half a second or a whole minute. Has anyone else experienced this, or does it sound like there's something wrong with my Muvo?
    I have updated the firmware--no dice. Same deal. I don't want to sound like I'm slamming it, because I really like the device a lot, it's really handy for audio books in particular, but this rewind issue is really a pain. I know it's a small, inexpensi've device, but honestly the way mine is, rewind as a feature is kind of useless...and since when is rewind a feature, I'd expect it to be a given that you can rewind through a track in a way that's useful.
    By the way, I seem to be seeing a lot of posts about Muvo's suddenly just not working out of nowhere, after a few weeks. Is that a common thing, an old firmware thing, current issue, etc.
    Thanks...

    Joymbeer--yeah, it is extremely irritating. The closest workaround I've found is if I hear it "stutter" 0 times or more, it's gonna jump back a lot further than I want it to. What ends up happening is I do the "let it stutter 6 or 7 times" thing several times to get back to somewhere (remotely) close to where I want. So I end up spending a lot of time to go back say, 0 seconds. It's still really inadequate and as I said before, borderline useless as a feature.
    Why do we usually rewind? Either we liked something we heard and want to hear it again, or we misunderstood something and need to hear it again. If we can only easily rewind about one second, then what's the point? It takes a second for you to realize you NEED to rewind, and maybe longer to get to the button. So basically, you can only easily rewind to, BEST case, the point at which you REALIZED you needed to rewind! Since I got the Muvo for free (and the fact that they can afford to give you one of these things with a $4.95 subscription fee should have told me something), I deal with it--you get what you pay for, I guess.
    Jeremy-CL, it's useful to know that this is normal behavior, and useful to know that this is the same way Audible's Manager works--I haven't tried listening on my PC, so I'll take your word for it. I'd disagree with your description: it'd be more accurate to say that for the first few seconds that the button is held down, it rewinds in TINY, INFINITESIMAL segments. It definitely doesn't allow you to review recent moments quickly, maybe a recent SECOND, but no better than that. I'm not knocking you, but I have to wonder if you've actually tried using one of these things with Audible content. If it worked the way you described, it'd be fine. Anyway, frustrating/useless behavior that is considered normal is still frustrating and/or useless. At least I know that my Muvo isn't broken.
    I don't know who to blame--Audible, for distributing a product that doesn't fully support their format, or Creative, for not fully supporting a format that they claim to support. Either way, it's ridiculous. I know Audible has their own proprietary compression scheme (more likely mp3 or wma with their own license management system), but come on, how hard could it possibly be to write some code to enable a proper Rewind function? Maybe an afternoon's work, at most? I guess there aren't enough people that use their Muvos mostly for Audible content that it's worth the effort--it's a reasonable notion, since Creative didn't exactly develop the Muvo for Audible. If Audible's employees write the software to support their content, then they need to get off their tails and do it properly. If it's Creative's guys that are in charge of doing that, then Audible needs to get on their case about it, since it's their customers that are getting schtupped. Somebody's half-ace-ing this in a big way. It makes Creative look bad, because if your devide doesn't work the way you believe it should, who do you immediately blame? The company that made the device, whether it's justified or not--every other Creative product I've ever bought has been great. It is a shame, because I really dig the Muvo, you can't really beat the form factor, and it is more frustrating because I know that it's probably not a hard issue to fix--write some code, offer it in a firmware upgrade, and you're done. If the Rewind feature worked well, I'd be telling all my friends to get one of these things. Anyway--I've gone on far too long.

  • My Nomad MuVo NX holds only 8

    My Nomad MuVo NX claims a storage capacity of 256 MB. But when I transfer mp3 files to it from my PC, the transfer stops at about 80 MB, displaying a message that the player is full. The transfer attempts to continue, but just displaying ERROR for each remaining selected file.
    I've tried initializing the player, but a file transfer afterwards still has the same apparent limit. I also tried converting to WMA files, but the transfer still stops when 80 MB is reached.
    So is my player defecti've? Or am I just misunderstanding something?

    Elmulti,
    Distributing the files between several folders works! I divided 235MB of mp3 files between seven folders, and was able to transfer it all to the player. The average file name was about 40 characters in length. Without subfolders, the root directory seems to have a capacity of about 80MB, unless the file names are very short. So subfolders seem to be the solution to my problem.
    However, although I don't care much anymore at this point, I am still not able to update the firmware. When I connect the player to the USB port without holding down the PLAY button, Windows detects it and I am able to transfer files to it. But when I execute the firmware upgrade file (MuVoNX_PCFW_US_l_30_09.exe), it displays the message "Searching for devices connected to the system", and nothing more happens. Similarly, when I try the Software AutoUpdate, I get a message saying "Creative Software AutoUpdate was unable to detect any Creative products attached to your computer".
    In answer to your other questions) I initialized the player by using the INITIALIZE feature in the Creative MediaSource Organizer.(2) This is a new player, so it has never worked any other way.(3) No, I haven't yet tried connecting the player to a different PC.
    But using several folders is a satisfactory solution for me. It's a little bit of a hassle, annoying especially because none of the manuals or HELP information say that the player has such a requirement, but I can li've with it.
    So, problem solved! Thanks.

    Apparently, this happens to others - using XP - specifically when trying to do this firmware upgrade in order to play purchased WMA, DRM protected music.
    The PC recognizes the MuVo 28.
    It assigns it a dri've letter when it is plugged in.
    The install procedure for the *Audible* firmware does not see it.
    Please help.
    Tbanks,

    JLRtist,
    After you have installed the latest downloaded driver, did you run the player into recovery mode? Try this,press and hold the PLAY button, continue holding the button while inserting the player into the USB port for about 0-5 sec. Run the firmware update file.

  • NOMAD MuVo not working after formating with Wind

    Hi,
    Yesterday, I formated my NOMAD MuVo player with windows (FAT32) and now it only works as a USB key. When I press on the play button the light turns to red and there's no sound.
    I have neither the firware nor the drivers and when I try to install the firware it does not work (the software can't find the player that is plugged into the USB port).
    Could someone please help me?
    Thanks.

    Have you followed the instructions on reloading the firmware at the download page? Often for MuVos there is a special procedure to follow (click "show details" next to the firmware download link).
    Formatting as FAT32 can be a bad idea as some players don't recognise the file system.

  • Had a failed Firmware Upgrade on a Zen??? LOOK INSIDE FOR POSSIBLE

    From the Nomadness.net forums: (I had the same problem and user inferno9 at those forums posted this which fixed my issues - hope it helps!)
    The problem was that I had formatted the dri've and attempted to reload the firmware, when, BOOM, the firmware updates would not detect the player. I tried all kinds of different strategies, different drivers, different applications, safe mode, etc...until I FINALLY figured it out.
    Buried deep within Microsoft's website, I found this link...

    Issues updating firmware on Creative ZEN portable devices after installing Windows Media Player
    If you have a Creative ZEN device, make sure the device has the latest firmware before you install the beta release of Windows Media Player . To download the latest firmware, go to Creative Worldwide.
    If you try to upgrade the firmware on your Creative ZEN after you install the beta release of Windows Media Player , the Creative firmware upgrade software might not recognize your device.
    In this case, remove Windows Media Player , update the Creative firmware, and then reinstall Windows Media Player . Creative plans to address this issue in future firmware updates.
    For information about removing the beta release of Windows Media Player , see Rolling back to a previous version of the Player.

    Good luck all.

It can't be that hard to program, can it's If you made this, the Touch would be better than any other player on the market! It'd beat the iPod! <EM>Just kidding.</EM>
    I think so

  • Nomad Muvo d

    Is there anyway to fix this?
    It seems my . When I press the Play button nothing happens, no matter how fresh the batteries are. I plugged it into the USB port on my computer and nothing happened for a long time. Then suddenly the light went red and it was recognized by the computer (well. . . sort of). I tried to open it and it showed that it was empty (it had songs on it earlier). I thought I'd reformat it, but when I tried File/Format, it did not work, nothing happened. There definitely seems to be some sort of IO error.
    Is there anyway to reset this? To wipe it and recover?
    I tried holding down the play button as I plugged it into the USB port, but that didn't do anything. And now it seems that the computer never sees it (and the red light on the Muvo never comes on).
    I must say, for the price I paid for it, I certainly expected it to last much longer than this. I have an old 2G iPod that is still going strong that I got before the Muvo.
    Is there any hope?

    Tlongacre,
    Have you tried updating the firmware on your MuVo yet? If not follow these steps to get the firmware updated and see if the player starts working again.
    ) Go to www.nomadworld.com and select downloads/drivers. On the next page select your OS and then Nomad MuVo. Click "Get Files"
    2) Unplug the MuVo and Download and Run the Nomad MuVo Driver Update. Once the driver is installed, plug in the MuVo and let Windows detect and install new hardware.
    3) Unplug the MuVo and plug it back in while holding down the play/pause button for 0 seconds. If Windows finds new hardware then let it automatically install it. Then download and run the Nomad MuVo Firmware Update located here: http://www.nomadworld.com/downloads/firmware/wma-muvo.asp?nProdID=437&sProd=NOMAD%20MuVo
    4) If it says that the data area is not initialized at any time press the ok button. Put a checkmark in the Format Data Area Button and then press start.
    5) When it is finished press close and unplug the MuVo.
    Test the player and see if it starts working again.

  • Nomad MuVo and medisou

    Hey, I have a Nomad MuVo 28mb player and I was downloading all of the updates (Dri'ves, fiemware etc...) but a few of the firmware DLs say I need Mediasource for it to work, where can I get this?

    Girlyum,
    It is an update in the sense that it will update your version of Mediasource if you have it already installed. It will also install the full version if it isn't installed, so it will work either way.
