Recovering my music from a Zen Mi

Hey all,
I have a first generation Zen micro with the non plays-for-sure firmware on it. I recently lost my music library and i was wondering if there was any way that i could get the songs on my mp3 player back onto my computer? Opening the device in my computer shows all the tracks but i can't access them, only delete.
Any help would be great, thanks.
Chris

I used the Creative MediaSource Organizer?software to transfer music files from my Creative Player back to my computer. As I recall, I had to fiddle with it for a while, otherwise I could give you better instructions.
It did work. You can find the MediaSource software at the top of the page under Support/Downloads.Maybe someone else on the forums?could give you the exact instructions.Good luck.luvmyrescuedogs?

  • HT204406 My HDD crashed which held all of my music.  Can I recover the music from iTunes Match and download it back to a new HDD?

    My HDD crashed and it contained all of the music from which iTunes and iMatch pulled files from.  Is there a way to recover the music from iTunes Match and download it back to my new HDD?

    My computer HDD did not crash only my external drive with the music files.  I have not had to reinstall iTunes software.  The iTunes libarary is still complete and shows the complete list of music.  I have also ran Update iTunes Match and all of the music is on the cloud.
    I cannot play the music from iTunes that is on the cloud, however the music I purchased from iTunes did download and it will plan from my computer.
    The matched or uploaded music is what will not download and I can't find a command that allows me to download from Match.
    Sorry if I'm not being very clear, however I do really appreciate your help and suggestions.

  • I can't transfer my music from my zen micro to my

    I have a little problem when I try to transfer my music from the zen micro to my pc with zen media explorer I have an error ,I have the same thing using creative media source organizer.the error is always the same "transfer error" its says that my file is working or its occuped and it can't transfer it. That is so strange its that I can transfer misic from my pc to my zen micro but not the inverse.Help !!!!!!

    My personal view is the PC Music Library is a waste of time. It's an intermediate step between transferring tracks to the player, and I don't use any features within it. However your mileage may vary.
    You can import tracks into the MediaSource PC Music Library one of two ways (at least). . Have a view with the files/folders on one side, and then the PC Music Library on the other, and simply use the transfer arrow to put the tracks into it (basically the tracks won't be copied, the links to them are simply added to the library database). 2. Use the Import button, on the toolbar. I believe this prompts for a directory with your files in, and it will then scan through the files.
    Not sure if this was mentioned before, but before doing any of this make sure you install the latest drivers, MediaSource, and MediaSource plugin from Nomadworld.com downloads.

  • HT1960 how to recover deleted music from ipod touch

    how to recover deleted music from ipod touch?

    This is not a complicated problem. And you can easilly solve it. Here is the way about how to recover music from iPod.
    1 Connect your iPod to your computer to restore custom ringtones and ringtones saved to the computer.
    2 Click the "iPod" button in iTunes, or select your iPod in the sidebar if you enabled the option to show the sidebar.
    3 Select the "Tones" tab, check the box for each ringtone you want to transfer to your iPhone, and then click "Sync."
    Sometimes a 3 party tool such as Data Recovery may help you in a easy way.

  • Can anyone help me with transfering my music from my Zen player to my comput

    Hi! I have had this Zen for about 2 years now but I had only got the chance to put music on it. I ended up moving awhile ago and completely forgot all about my Zen mp3 and I found it! So now am trying to figure out how to transfer my music from my Zen player onto my computer. Thanks a lot
    -Diana-

    I was having a similar proble. My Zen Micro was saying that errors occured while trying to sync from the player back to the computer. If the same thing happens to you, the problem is in your music. A dead giveaway is the file type. If your music is?a WMA file rather than an MP3, there's a security device that is embedded in the file that prevents you from syncing back to the computer. There is software that exists that strips that device and converts to MP3, but you have to have the songs on the computer first. I haven't figured that out yet. if you have any luck with this, post back.

  • Stolen laptop. recover purchased music from itunes?

    I have recently had my laptop stolen along with my itunes libary. is there any way I can recover my "purchased" music from the itunes store?  not everything I purchased is on my ipod.

    Was your backup copy of your computer stolen as well?
    If not, then use it to put everything back.
    You can also transfer itunes purchases from an ipod.  File>Transfer Purchases
    If you are int the U.S., then you can use the newly released icloud beta.
    Open itunes, go to itunes store.  Look under Quick Links.  Click Purchased.

  • I am trying to recover lost music from my I tunes library, is there any way i can sync from my I pod to my I tunes?, i am trying to recover lost music from my I tunes library, is there any way i can sync from my I pod to my I tunes?

    I an trying to recover lost music that was in my I tunes library.
    I now have more music on my I pod nano and want to sync this collection back to the I tunes library. Is this possiable ?
    If not, can anyone give me a hint, other than the ones on the I tunes tutorial ( none of these have worked ) how I can get my music back

    Yes it's possible to sync music back from a iPod back into iTunes that (I assume) wasn't purchased on the iTunes Store.
    Apple allows iTunes Store purchases on devices to be reversed back into iTunes, just not cd rips and stuff like that. For that it's a one way trip to the device from iTunes.
    I likely can't suggest such software here, but if you visit iLounge you can ask what is the latest software that works for your platform.
    Really it only takes a mere few minutes to backup your iTunes Library and stick in a few cd/dvd's or a external drive. iTunes even has a menu command for it to make it oh so simple. Please use it and backup all your data.
    Hard drives fail, computers burn up, thieves steal, stuff gets forgotten. Plan for something happening because it will.
    Good Luck

  • Transfering Music From My Zen Micro to My Hard Dr

    Hi Everyone, I've tried looking through the forums for an answer to my question but I haven't been lucky as of yet - apologies if this is a common issue.
    My problem is that I'd like to transfer all the music on my Zen Micro on to my PC's Hard Dri've.
    I can see Creatvie Zen Micro on My Computer - I can click on the icon and view the individual music files but it does not let me copy and paste them on to my hard dri've.
    My hard dri've on my PC failed recently and I'd like to put all the songs on my MP3 player back onto my PC - but I just can't seem to get it to work.
    My details are -
    Player - Creative Zen Micro 5gb
    Version - .0.03
    I have XP Pro with SP2 - and I've downloaded Creative MediaSource Organizer.
    If any one can help me solve this issue - even if its a step by step way of getting the files on to my hard dri've (I don't mind being patronised! ) I would be eternally grateful!!
    Thanks - I hope I get a reply soon - my hair is getting greyer by the second!
    Ry

    Here is what you should do:
    - Download and install the latest Creative MediaSource Player/Organizer 3.30.2 from your product download site. Make sure that you install this first before installing the rest of the MediaSource plugins listed below.
    - For non-PlaysForSure Zen series: Download and install the latest Creative Zen and NOMAD Jukebox plugin 2.00.20 for Creative MediaSource from your product download site.
    - Download and install the latest Creative MediaSource Plugin for CD Burner 3.0.8 from your product download site.
    - Launch Creative MediaSource Oragnizer.
    - Go to Tools->Settings->PC Music Library and click Properties. Set your preferred folder and file naming convention. Close the setting page.
    - In the Sources window, click to view PC Music Library.
    - Go to View->Right Panel View and select to view your MP3 player.
    - Transfer the tracks from your MP3 player to MediaSource's PC Music Library by clicking the arrow pointing from right to left.
    - If you have updated the track information of the tracks in your MP3 player, the updated track information will also be imported into the PC Music Library database. However, the tags of the files are not updated. Here is what you need to do. Right click the PC Music Library node in the Sources window or right click on any tracks in the PC Music Library window and select "Update Tag". This will update the tag of all the tracks or the selected tracks with the track information as seen in the PC Music Library.

  • Transferring Music from one zen player to anot

    I currently have a zen v and have just purchased a zen v plus. How do I transfer my music from the v to the v plus?

    OK, the title says "music match", but the instructions are basically the same. Look at the bottom for a link to an article about WMA formatted songs:

  • Can I transfer Music from One Zen Micro to another Zen Mic

    Hello,
    I've had my Zen Micro (Green) for 3 weeks now and now my girlfriend wants one a Zen Micro too, which she'll get in the next few days. I was wondering if there's any way to transfer mp3s from my Zen Micro to hers?
    I was thinking if I plugged 2 Zen Micros into my PC and then load up the Nm=oman Player and just drag the songs from one Zen Micro to another......will that work. Or is it best to just drat the songs onto the PC and then transfer them onto my Girlfriend's Zen?

    I would imagine you can do that .... although you may need the latest firmware 2.xxxxx which would mean you have to use WMP 0 ...
    I should wait until she gets hers then plug it into your PC and see if it recognises it .... if it does you have no worries .. if not post again and everyone will do there best to help out
