Frozen on re-building library, plus connection problems (Zen Mic

Yes, I read the FAQ :smileytongue: I JUST got my new Zen Micro and started putting songs on it. It started giving me trouble with the connection, but was ok for a little bit. After awhile I couldn't get a connection at all. My computer says there's no problem with the USB connection.
Also, it's stuck on the "re-building library" screen. I did the clean-up and reboot, but it still gets stuck there and I left it on for hours. According the the FAQ, it says ["Next you should try [url="http://www.nomadness.net/modules.php?name=FAQ&myfaq=yes&id_cat=8&categories =Nomad+Jukebox+Zen#23]reloading the firmware/OS[/url], but beware if you are having connection problems also with your PC you may end up with a player that has no firmware and cannot be reloaded."] But I'm having a connection problem, so I shouldn't do this?
Ahh...someone help! I just got it and I haven't even been able to use it yet! This was after waiting a week for it to be deli'vered.

Connection problems can be caused by numerous factors unfortunately.
The best test if you're able to do it is check on another PC. To see if the problem is with your player/cable or the PC.
There's a lot more advice here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net.

Headphone jack problems limited to the Zen Mic

My first generation Zen Micro's headphone jack recently crapped out and given that the 5G hard dri've is just about full I am looking to get a 20G Zen Sleek. Does anyone know if the headphone jack problem seen on the Zen Micro has been as issue with other Creative MP3 players or has Creative started beefing up the headphone jacks? It would be good to know before I spend $250 on a new player that will fail in less than a year.

From what I remember there was one post about a broken jack on a Sleek, but hard to know if this was a troublemaker or not. I've not seen any others, but it is early days yet. Equally I hope Creative have learned from a failed design on two players now...

*URGENT* Problem with my Zen Mic

Okay so I tried updating the firmware to 2.0, no problem. I did that at my sister's house and when I tried to plug in my Zen into my computer to upload songs again, Windows didn't recognize it. So I repeatedly installed/uninstalled the drivers (downloading the driver and using the cd-rom) but it still wouldn't recognize my Zen. So I put it in rescue mode to reload the firmware and now whenever I turn it on, it says firmware problem. Sorry if this has already been answered by I searched through the forums and didn't find anything. So how do I get out of rescue mode and then make my computer recognize my Zen?
I apolgize in advanced if this question has already been answered but I really did try using search and I couldn't find anything regarding my situation.
Thanks a lot guys!

Did you read this...
Filename: ZenMicroMTP_PCFW_LB_2_0_05.exe
IMPORTANT: This is a beta version of this update. Before you decide whether to install beta firmware, it is important to understand that a beta release does not have the stability of released Creative firmware. Beta releases are meant for testing and validation, so you may encounter problems with a beta release that could possibly result in loss or corruption of data, necessitate a reformat of the device, or, in extremely rare cases, may render the device inoperable.
Be sure to back up all the audio and data files on your Zen Micro before installing this firmware update as all content will be lost when you install the new firmware. After installing PlaysForSure on your player, use Windows Media Player 0 to restore audio and/or data files to your player.
That's why I'm not upgrading it!

Problem transfering "datafiles" from my zen mic

When I try to transfer files from my Zen Micro it always pop up a warning message wich often tells "Not enough diskspace" or "wrong function" or something like that. My friend can transfer files from it but I can't. Sometimes it's possible to start transfering but then I'll only get about 0% of the file. I use Windows Xp Sp2 (swedish). Help!

There's stacks of connection advice via the "PC connection problems with your player" link in the FAQ post.
Did you upgrade to the MTP / v2 firmware?

Headphone Socket Problem - on Zen Micro Photo (not Zen Mic

Hi folks,I'm having a wee problem with the headphone socket on my Zen MicroPhoto, similar to that described in this threadhttp://forums.creative.com/showthrea...=654536#M40796 However, this was for the Zen Micro not the Photo. I've tried the DIY method of sorting out the headphone socket (by partial disassembly) but I think that there's no plastic strip where the socket, on/off switch and USB port are housed and that it's part of the main casing instead (which is probably part of the reason the MicroPhoto hasn't has as many problems with the headphone socket in the first place, as in it's a more sturdy structure...but it's obviously come loose for me). So...any hints as to what I might be able to do Anyone had the same problem Bearing in mind I bought it over a year ago now and it was second hand anyway (and thus the warranty is no longer valid). Thanks! RL

In this forum you'll find a lot of threads about connecting problems. Use search function. There are already some solutions or proposals how to solve.

Is this a new problem for the zen mic

I havent found anything about this on the forum but I have to agree that I didnt search a lot , but since a couple of days, I got a new problem on my micro, it started skipping part into some songs then would go back and then skip some parts, it's very annoying and i'm quite pissed because my player is only month old, I know it's not my mp3 because they used to play very well on the player and I dont have any problems on my computers... what should I do? by the way, im not shaking the player when it does the skippingMessage Edited by vgtvidz on 02-06-2005 05:05 PM

Sounds like something went south in the OS or actual mp3 decoder in the player. I might try a Clean Up in Resuce mode then maybe a Reload OS. You can get into rescue mode by turning off the player and taking out the battery. Push the power switch in the on position and keep it held over while you re-insert the battery. It should boot into Rescue mode. Try a Clean Up. It should display a status % complete and only take a few moments. Try the songs again and see if there's the same problem.
If that doesn't work download firmware v.0.03 and select Reload Firmware via USB.
If either of these things don't work and the source files are clean it might be a bigger problem that might require a replacement.

Problems with firmware update 2.00.12 (Zen Mic

Hi all,
Its not possible for me to updat the firmware of my ZEN micro to 2.00.2
Every time when i try to do this the updat program get stuck at the reboot faze of the player...
If i restart it manually or if i reconnect it is stll get the same thing after some time
Who can help me out with this, is ther something wrong?
Please help me...
Thanks

What version of the firmware is on the Micro now (before 2.00.2)?
BTW, when I installed .02.05 over .0.03, it also hung in the reboot phase. I disconnected, then went in Rescue Mode, did a Reload OS, and ran the installer again.
Oh, and make sure to disable any MediaSource sniffer, if it's acti've...

Has anyone not had a problem with ZEN MIC

should I just buy a Nomad Xtra?

Yes, Have Micro and it is second one in 4 months, Had to send st one back because it froze up and wouldn't turn on or play. The second one is doing the same thing within 3 months with very little use. My new Micro won't go through recovery mode. This is second time it has froze up on me, phone support walked me through recovery mode and I reformatted and reloaded all my music, updated firmwar and now it has done the same thing, WHAT'S UP!!!!!

Video Playing problem (Zen Vision M 60

I just got my 60gb zen vision M for christmas and i started transfering files right away to test out its playback quality etc
When i get to video particularly my anime video it plays the first 5 or so seconds and then freezes... no sound and no video.
The video is a naruto video from dattebayo fansubs. I think it is divx encoded (will double check to make sure)
What should i do to solve this issue?
I have not tried any other video's as yet but will do so soon

**bleep** it looks like it's slight differences in the encoding of the files that determin whether or not they play
I used Bleach episode coded by Lunar and that worked fine.
If it is down to minor differences in encoding that's causing this problem, surely it should be fixed as soon as possible, because of the massi've amount of different ways of encoding the player isn't really fit for avi playback if it's this temperamental :/
*UPDATE*
I've looked at the bleach file that works and the Naruto file that doesn't work in GSPOT.
There are a few very minor differences that I don't really understand but the one that jumps out at me is the container:
The naruto files that don't work have the container 'Multipart OpenDML AVI, "rec list" style DivX Style "packed bitstream" AVI (223 frames in first part, 639 frames follow)' and the bleach file that works is 'OpenDML (AVI v2.0) DivX Style "packed bitstream" AVI'
I've bolded what I think the problem is, would those 223 frames (first part) be the 8/9 seconds before it freezes?
Could this be the problem?
*FURTHER UPDATE*
The naruto file that has the line 'First part 223' lasts 9 seconds whereas another file that has the line '(205 frames in first part, 32998 frames follow)' lasts 8.
I'm almost certain this is what the problem is.......any chance of a firmware fix for the avi playback not supporting multipart AVI files?

Oh, right, sorry.
"OS Name: Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
Version: 5..2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600"
Though currently, I'm installing Windows XP Service Pack 3 via Windows Automatic Updates.
WMP Version: .0.572.5230
Should I uninstall WMP entirely to eliminate it as a possible factor?
(I have Winamp so I don't really need WMP.)
Are you saying that once I rollback my WMP to WMP0, my computer will be capable of reading my Zen & thus, allowing me to download the firmware and restoring it's previous condition (minus the contents-music, video, pictures, etc.)
Also, I tried to see if my Zen would try to connect to my laptop - I uninstalled the Zen program on it before connecting it, to see if anything would come up, allowing me to do anything, etc. But no, it just said "My Zen" but I couldn't do anything with that. And then I installed all of the software on the Creative Installation CD. After all of that, apparently my computer acknowledges that a device is connected via USB because it gives me an option as to what to do with it - open it, play it with wmp, explore, etc. The problem though was that the Creative program itself wouldn't acknowledge that it was connected. So I still had the "The player is not connected."
Just thought this might make a difference -
I also was looking for some kind of repair shops or sites that would be capable of repairing my Zen - the only thing I came across was http://www.zenrepair.com/Zen/index.jsp - does anyone know anything about this site? If it's reliable, etc. (Just a back up option in case this situation isn't solveable by other Zen peers.)
Also, thanks again for any help, effort, attempt, etc.

How to downgrade firmware? (Zen Mic

Im a owner of a Zen Micro 6GB, V2.x... For some reason I have the same problem like all the other ME user and trying to downgrade my firmware. When ever I try to downgrade the following message stop me from downgrading "You player is not connected. Please connect your player"Could someone help me with this? Or tell me how come Window XP pro does not reconnize V2.x?
Please help.

Hold down the option key.. when you select the different firmware.. it will then offer all that are available..
The very latest TC will not allow you to downgrade beyond 7.6.0 for some reason.. although the first of the Gen4 were sold with 7.5.2 if it didn't come with that level firmware it might not be able to go back to it.
Have you totally isolated the TC from the network.. reset it.. does the disk still spin up and down.. if so return for warranty exchange.. it is faulty. Otherwise start plugging in computers.. or connecting by wireless. give it a new wireless name.. add devices one by one until you find which is causing constant disk access. You might need to then do a reinstall to rid that device of the issue that is affecting the TC.

Shut Off problem / Zen Nano P

Hi.
After I bought my Zen Nano Plus it doesn?t work right anymore. It allways shut off after a while. Unfortunately it sometimes even won?t restart. So often I have to wait for hours before I can restart the player. I discovered that it works if I connect the player via USB-cable to pc. after diconnecting the cable, the player starts without any problems. I use alsmann-accus. And I haven?t any wma?s on the player. Just mp3?s!
Tried the newest firmware-update .2.03e. But nothing is better now!
I?ve heard about users with the .03.02 firmware, which havn?t any shut off-problems. I tried to flash my player with these fw, but its seems to be impossible. Is there any solution for flashing Zen with older firmware?
Thanks in advance for any comments or solutions!
Stanley

lol you sound like you have decent tech knowledge by the description in your post but I have to ask anyway. You say it keeps turning off after a while, and only works once you plug it into your comp. Is the battery dead =P? I mean that would explain why it works when you plug it in... other than that, when it shuts down does it do it like you were turning it off, or just go blank.
