Suggestion for creative's next MP3 Player, connection for USB Flash Driv

I would to see a connection for USB flash dri'ves to be added to the next mp3 player Creative makes. This way we don't have to rely solely on expensi've and limited in memory SD Cards.

I'm a bit confused as well, flash dri'ves are all more expensi've than the SDHC cards I have of the same size, and a whole heck of a lot more bulky and oddly shaped. I can't see myself strolling around with a ZEN with a plastic knob sticking out of the side, but that's just my opinion.
I like SD cards, they are slim, extremely light weight and easy to carry (mobility is pretty much the entire point of a portable player). It makes it really easy to purchase a few SD cards and use them like interchangeable disks. They are also pretty cheap and rapidly getting cheaper.

  • Connect a usb flash drive to an ipad?

    How can you connect a USB Flash Drive to an ipad?
    I like to watch my photo's and documents everywhere, I have a lot of them so I must use a USB Flash Drive but I don't know how to connect it to my iPad.
    Help my please,
    thanks

    The iPad is not meant to have to use a flash drive. It syncs information while plugged into your computer through iTunes. You can sync Movies, Documents, Photos, Music and more.
    There is a attachment called the Camera Connection Kit that comes with an SD card reader and a USB plug but it's only meant for importing pictures and using devices such as a USB keyboard and USB headsets.

  • How do I browse & play .mp3 files from a USB flash drive using Labview 8.0?

    I'm a tester & want to test USB flash drives connected to PC.
    I want to browse the file system & playback the audio files, .jpeg files etc in the USB drive. I've Labview 8.0. When I searched for some examples or VIs which can detect the USB flash drive, couldn't find any. So if you could point me in the right direction, I can find a solution to my problem.
    Thanks.
    Solved!

    You probably won't find specific examples for this.  A USB flash drive is mounted by the OS and appears as a new memory storage device to all software on the PC, including LabVIEW.  You can certainly write a LabVIEW program to open files on the stick and play/run them but I would create a VI that wrote files to the stick and then read them back and checked them for bit-level errors.  Keep in mind that your OS might be doing parity checking under the hood which would make your test rather meaningless.
    BTW, testing memory by looking at pics or listening to MP3s would be useless of course.  A human can't see or hear bit-level errors in a high bandwidth data stream.

  • Disk erase needed after USB flash drive has been connected?

    Hello. I apologize beforehand if this is a stupid question. Unfortunately, it looks like I'm going to have to return my new iMac because of a faulty screen. I have held off transferring files to see if the screen would be problem-free, but at one point I did connect a USB flash drive to my iMac. I copied just one file onto my desktop. My question is: when the flash drive is connected and files show up in the Finder window, does that mean there is now a lasting imprint of those files on my hard disk, even if I haven't actually copied them onto the desktop? I ask this because the flash drive has some sensitive data on it, and I'm debating whether or not to do a 7-pass erase before returning my iMac. Any response would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    If you mean the Finder window showing the contents of the flash drive, no, there's nothing retained on your Mac from that collection of files once you dismount the flash drive.

    Got a Riptunes MP3 player and put USB cord from MP3 player to MacBook Pro to transfer songs and my computer immediately shut down and won't power back up and won't charge now....what do I do!?

    Take it in for a service diagnostic so you can determine if it's worth fixing or if you should buy a new one.

  • Using USB flash drive to connect laptop

    On previous versions of Network Magic, when adding a laptop to my wireless network, an option would appear for using a USB flash drive to transfer settings and/or password to the new machine. 
    After a few "upgrades" to NM, the option ONLY appears after I turn my security off.  If I leave my WEP security ON, the only option that appears is to "copy" the 32-digit password & enter it on the laptop.  However, I keep getting errors.
    Is there a procedure to use a USB flash drive to connect a "new" laptop to my secured wireless network?
    Thank you.

    Hi thomas,
    If this is your own New Laptop to your Network, and even after you supplied the password, the problem is the Network Lock is still on. You need to disable the Network Lock. Enter the password, installed Network Magic if the Laptop is your own. You need to stop tracking your Laptop as an intruder on your other copies of Network Magic.
    Then you need to reenable the Network Lock from your Wired Computer. Use your other computer to activated the copy of Network Magic installed on the laptop.

  • Can I Connect a USB Hard Drive Directly to the IX4-300D?

    I need to copy large amounts of data from a USB hard drive to the IX4-300D. So can I connect the USB hard drive directly to the USB port on the IX4-300D?
    If "yes", how does the USB hard drive show up in Windows so I can select the file to copy?

    Hi exceptionalht,
    The USB ports are intended for external storage devices such as flash drives and USB hard drives. Once you connect the hard drive to the USB port, the device's content will show up as a new share in the Shares page. You should be able to map that share in Windows or have Storage Manager map it automatically.
    To safely remove the external hard drive, go to the External Storage page and click the eject icon for that device.

  • Creating Recovery Media using USB Flash Drive for Windows 8.1

    I followed all the instructions to create a USB Flash Drive Recovery Media (insert 16 GB USB Flash Drive or >) and it said it will be created now (after I clicked on Create), however the next screen said to insert > 7.5 GB flash drive, then it said it was cancelled.  I was attempting to use a San Disk Flash Drive and I am wondering if it is because it has some time of application on it.  I was under the understanding that it would just "delete/erase" this (format it) and then create it, but it wouldn't.  Any suggestions?

    In Windows 8, one can create a "recovery drive" (called a System Repair Disc in Windows 7) that does not contain the recovery partition. (When you install Windows 8 yourself, there is no recovery partition.) It contains just the recovery environment.

    Hi - Re Keynote  I'm trying to figure out how to create a music album (as an artist) on USB flash drive, (accessible by both Mac and PC). What I want is a background picture with 'click-buttons' to play each track listed, and play in order (like a cd) - also similar for embedded videos and photos etc. This should all be on the one page.  
    Is this possible with Keynote, or any other software package for Mac (am using Macbook Pro) ?

    Yikes, it sounds like you've been doing a lot of work on this project... Unfortunately, however, this isn't the Adobe Encore forum, but the Acrobat.com forum. While it seems like an exciting question, we're not able to address issues pertaining to other Adobe products and services. Here's a link to the Adobe Encore forum, where you're more likely to get help for this specific issue:
