Problem with Creative M4500 speakers

Hi,
This is Raj. I bought creative M4500 model speakers. I am facing a very peculiar problem with these speakers.
When I connect the plug to the plug to the pin, The audio comes fine with out any problem but suddenly after 5 mins or so, I see that audio is stopped from the speakers, When I check if there is power supply to the speakers, near teh volume controllers I see that the Green buld is blowing which means that there is power supply but there is no audio. When I remove the plug and put into the pin carefully again the audio comes fine.
You may doubt that the pin may not be good or some loose contact, The power pin is perfectly fine, because when I connect any other device(cell charger and external HD power) to the same pin they work with out interruption. More over I aleays see the green light near the Volume controller always on.
I used to think that this is a small problem, but this problem is so irritating that I wanna get rid of this problem as soon as possible.
Can any one advise what could have gone wrong and suggest me any solution to get rid of this problem.
Thanks alot.
Raj Kumar

Hi,
No This does not happen all the time. This comes intermittently. Something like once in a couple of days. But once the problem rises it does not settle for 2-3 hrs, irritates like anything.
I purchased it from the local store. How ever I need to find a service centre @ my place to get some resolution for this.

well i own creative inspire 280 speakers but im having trouble with them. First when i connect it to some devices background electric noise appears when im not playing anything, then if I connect the jack till the end, the played sound will only be mono, the only way to play it stereo is if i dont put the 3,5mm jack till the end but it still shows some background noise. How can i solve this issue?

Problem with Creative Audio Control Panel

) Heya, I just bought a SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio and I've encountered a problem with Creative Audio Control Panel. My OS is Win7 x64; I have installed the newest drivers for SB.

5.1 sound in games with Creative Digital-Speakers and Audigy 2

Hi!
I know that you can't have real 5. sound (only upmix) in games with Creative Digital-Speakers. Is it possible to connect, without the decoder box, the soundcard with the subwoofer (Line-Out -3)? I want to make the cable for LIN_OUT 3 by myself, but which of the 4 pins are for the subwoofer, center front or center rear (ground is clear)?

Go to Knowledge Base article SID3069 then expand the "7. Soundblaster Cards".
It is possible to have 5. digital sound in games if your Creative speaker system has a digital DIN connection.

Hey Guys,Here is a link to instructions on how How to obtain and to install USB 2.0 drivers in Windows XP Service Pack . http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;Q329632?Win2000 and later have the capability to support USB 2.0, but USB 2.0 was released after XP was release, so there weren't any drivers installed before Windows XP service pack 2. Make sure you've installed all your windows updates including service pack 2. You can check if you have SP2 by right-clicking on my computer and choosing "properties", it will say on the general tab. Also the way to tell if you have USB 2.0 drivers installed is to right-click on my choose "Manage", then choose "device manager" look down to "uni'versal serial Bus controllers" and click on the + . This will expand the USB devices. Look for the word "enchanced" (USB enhanced host controller). If you see it, then you have USB 2.0 support. If not, use the link above and get the drivers. Hope this helps!?JT

Problem with Creative Zen Touch DAP-HD0014

Hey,
I have the Creative Zen Touch DAP HD004 as listed in the subject. Version .0.03
In the "Information" part of the player, it lists it as having GB of music available, but in the menu only the 59 default classical music songs appear. (These are not knowingly mine!)
I was wondering whether there was any way to turn the player into Hard Dri've mode to retrieve these songs, or to use some sort of program to view them and put them back onto the player? Everytime I use My Computer to browse the MP3 Player, all that appears are the same 59 songs.
I hope this information can help someone to solve my problem!!

Headphone jack problem with Creative Zen Nomad XTra 3

My warranty expired a couple of months ago, so, naturally, all problems are showing up now.
Last night I noticed that my player is no longer deli'vering sound out of the right headphone. I've tried with several different headphones and a pair of external speakers so I've confirmed it's with the device and not the headphones. Since the device is not under warranty anymore, I can't find any information on getting repairs or support.
Any help out there?

I gathered that a lot of people have experienced headphone jack problems with their players, but I thought that was with the Micros only. I guess I'm glad I'm not the only one. Or maybe I'm not. I dunno.
Anyway, I sent an e-mail to customer support. My wife bought the unit for me for a Christmas present last year, so it's only a couple of months out of warranty. If nothing else, hopefully Creative will tell me how to ship it back for repairs at my own expense (it's gotta be cheaper than buying a new one).

Problems with Creative Cloud storage (again!)

I am having problems when uploading files to Creative Cloud storage. Some of the files go - some don't, and are flagged 'Unable to Sync'. I have had this problem for some time and have stopped using CC sync, but I thought I would give it another go the other day, and still no luck. The files that are reported as being a problem seem fine - no issue with the names, or anything that I can see.
I spent almost an hour on the phone to technical support about this issue about a week ago and the guys I was speaking to (I kept being pushed on to someone else) didn't seem to have any idea. They just kept going through all my security questions and then put me on hold whilst they asked someone more knowledgeable. They would then come back on and pass me to someone else (more security questions) until eventually the last guy I spoke to said he didn't know the answer and an Adobe representative would contact me in 24 to 48 hours. Not a very impressive turn around for customer support - even less so since it is now a week later and still no call. Let's face it. I'm not going to get a response from Adobe.
As a test, I tried uploading the same files to DropBox. Not very technical perhaps, but I just reasoned that if there were problems with one system, they should show up on the other. Imagine. They uploaded to DropBox no problem.
So the technical fix is forget Creative Cloud storage and use DropBox. Okay, you have to pay for a reasonable amount of storage, but if you depend on your files for your business, it's worth it.
I'm worried though. I'm a big fan of Adobe, and have been using their products for years but am getting concerned that, should I have any problem with any of their CC products their support will be minimal (if I'm lucky) or non-existant (as seems more likely).
As a little extra comment, I have emptied out my CC Storage files (and the archived files) and yet the CC system still says I have 528MB stored - although there is nothing there. I had this once before and the Adobe technical guy reset the system - but it's back!
HOLD THE FRONT PAGE! I just opened my CC storage in a browser and tried to drag and drop the troublesome files directly. And it worked! So maybe the problem is with the CC app. (I have tried uninstalling and re-installing it numerous times). So dragging and dropping is a fix, but not very practical since you cannot drag and drop folders, so you have to create all the folders in the browser version and then drag the files as required.
Anyone got any ideas?

Woah - Ok so sometimes it's the simplest answer we overlook -- HOW TO MOVE YOUR FILES FROM COMPUTER TO ADOBE CLOUD -- EASILY
(for windows users)
1 - Start menu
2 - Go to Computer - OS ( C:) - Users - "Your Name"
3 - You should see here - the folders you need - Creative Cloud Files - and also - My Docs, My Pics, etc -- The app will not allow this task - windows will
4 - Right click on the source folder - (Pics, docs)
5 - Select copy
6 - Right click on Creative Cloud Files
7 - Select Paste
This will transfer all files in that library to the Adobe Cloud folder and allow them to be synced to the cloud
Hopefully this will save some folks the Head - desks it caused me.

Problem with Creative Cloud Desktop app since update to Windows 8.1

Problem with creative

i've got a problem with my creative zen ./firewire... every couple of weeks the bass goes very distorted. the only way i can fix this is by reinstalling the firmware which is startin 2 annoy me now. i don't think its a problem with the player itself cause after i reinstall the firmware it sounds fine. just wondering if theres a way to fix this problem permanantly.

Have you tried just resetting the player?
This has been mentioned before as a bug, but a reset normally cures it.
You might want to analyse to see if it's possible a corrupt file is causing this.

Unified/Documented problems with Creative WOW Wireless/wired headsets

This thread is to properly present the problems encountered with the WOW Wireless/wired headsets. I will be linking this post to the facebook page as well as World of Warcraft's facebook and Blizzards facebook if I can find one. Also Lucas Arts and THX. Lets see if we can get some eyes on this and move forward. If you frequent a popular site where others are discussing this please bring this thread to light there also.
If it continues unrespondid to my next step will be to notify consumerist.com.
Please note I am to date not having these issues but they seem to be common enough of an issue. (I suspect we may be able to find our own solution also.)
When posting Please follow the below template.
Problem Description:
A non superlative description of your problem. Please just the facts here so we can all be very clear. Include any software tested with such as Ventrillo or WOW or games used that exhibited the problem.
Problem Impact:
Here is where we want to share how this makes you Feel. Describe the negative impact to your leisure or professional time with this product.
System:
Make/Model: (IE homegrown or Dell Optiplex xxxxx)
OS: (Operating System. Please include 64bit or 32 Bit.)
Processor: (i7920 or C2d6600 or whatever you have.)
Memory: (Amount of ram installed and running in the system.)
Video card: (What is the model of the video card in question? Memory installed on it? Manufacturer and such.)
Motherboard: (If you know the model. For instance. MSI x58M.)
Harddrives: (How many drives. What speed if you have them.)
Case: (what is the case? Normally I wouldn't ask but we are talking about Wireless transmission Who knows if that could matter right?)
Environment: (Where is the Wireless Dongle. About how far are you from it. Is something between you and the dongle normally? if so what is it? Do you plug it into the back usb port of your system behind a military grade metal desk from the 40's? That could matter.)
Troubleshooting:
This is where we describe in as much detail as you can what was done. Lets keep this to facts and try and remove feelings from this portion.
I can only hope with this information I or others can come up with a good solution for us all. Or Creative labs and their associated partners involved on this headset can drive this to a resonable conclusion for us all.
I do want to remind everyone here that we are in a new consumer technology area. There WILL be problems. Creative labs had to know this. Blizzard had to know this. And THX/Lucas Arts had to know this. How this problem is handled will impact all three of these organizations. To what extent is yet to be seen.

Problem Description:
Voice randomly becomes unintelligible and extremely distorted (think 70's robotic, accept you can't understand it) while in Ventrillo. My brother and I both have the same model headphones and we BOTH have this problem.
Problem Impact:
I feel cheated out of $119.00 + tax. The main reason for these headphones is for raids and they do not perform the task they were designed for. My guildmates have to be tired of telling me and my brother " Dude your headphones screwed up again." I have sent tickets in and the solutions provided were lame. Reinstall software... mute the microphone? Seriously? All of which did nothing. By the 3rd Email I got nothing at all. Newegg has tons of complaints about this on their site and creative reponded to 1 complaint that was not about this issue, but skipped all with this problem which tells me they do not want to deal with it. I have been a LONG time customer and supporter of creative. This is making me reconsider. If I can't find a solution soon I will return them.
System:
System:
Make Model: Homebuilt
OS: Windows Vista 64 bit
Processor: Core 2 duo E8400
Memory: 8 gigs of Corsair Dominator 1600 mhz
Video Card: 2 x GeForce GTX 260
Motherboard: XFX 3-way SLI Motherboard
Hard Drives 2 300 gig Western digitals 7200rpm
Case:Thermaltake Cosmos S
Enviroment: Wired WOW headset
Troubleshooting:
So far the only make shift solution I have found to temporarily fix the problem is to disconnect and reconnect Ventrillo. The problem will definately happen again but buys a little time between distortion. The only firmaware I have found is for the wireless headset not the wired. The auto update feature says all software is current.

Having big problems with Creative Zen Micro Photo!! I need much urgent help!

Hi. I am having a big problem with my MP3 Creative Zen Micro Photo device at the computer.Here is the thing:Before I bought this I had the regular Zen Micro & having fun with it. I had no problems with that when I used the Media Explorer to transfer songs. So I bought the Zen Micro Photo & installed it my computer. As normal I used the Media Explorer to transfer songs & pictures.So I reinstalled Windows XP at my computer, and when I installed the CD that followed to transfer new songs, the Windows said that it's an unknown thing I have connected in the USB.So I installed Service Pack & 2. I have tried to install drivers from the cd but it seems that there are no drivers on the cd! The big problem is that when I connect the MP3 to the computer, it doesn't read it's a Zen Micro, it's just unknown! So the Zen Micro Photo Media Explorer program doesn't work & I can't transfer songs or picture on it! And it just happened after I re-installed Windows on my computer. The same thing happened on my brother's computer after he re-installed windows. And when I connect the MP3 to the USB, it says that it's not a USB 2.0, but .! And I am sure it is 2.0 because it has always been like that before I re-installed windows. Also the MP3 does not re-charge when I put it my computer! The battery is just the same, it tries to do it but it doesn't. So I am using my sisters computer to charge the MP3 & transfer songs. I have tried everything but I can't seem to understand what the problem is? I have never experienced something like this before, and I really hope you can help me with this! To be honest I think what I am missing is the driver. So can someone PLEASE provide me the link for the driver? I have downloaded all those 3 on www.creative.com, but they are none of them! Also that playforsure firmawre thingy does not work because it sais that I have to connect my MP3, and it is connected already!Please reply as quick as possible! Thanks a lot for you kind help!
I have also sent this mail to creative support! But please help me I have had this problem for almost 2 months now! =(Message Edited by anakwalajinn on 05-0-2006 08:47 PM
