To Everyone Whos Zen MicroPhoto Won't connect to their pc,I have Your Solut

To Get Your Computer To Recognize Your Zen MicroPhoto you need to just reinstall your current version of windows media player because it has all of the drivers for mp3 players. This worked for me and should work for everyone else. This won't erase your current library of songs. Once you have it reinstalled your library will be how it was before. Your Welcome once this works.

Well, that doesn't help. I uninstalled every Creative thing--the driver, MediaSource, etc--restarted the computer and installed the .30.03 version;? no joy, same symptoms. I uninstalled that, restarted? my machine and installed the .20.04c version driver, which seems to be the latest WHCL certified one. No change.
I strongly suspect the firmware now. I'm tempted to "Reload OS" diag option, but if the drivers don't work, I'll be stuck with a completely useless device.

  • Zen MicroPhoto first time connection proble

    I recieved my new Zen MicroPhoto in the mail yesterday, whereupon I installed the software it came with and hooked it up via USB to charge. The USB connection is quite sensiti've, but I can get the player to charge.
    However, when I tried to add some songs, the Zen MicroPhoto Media Explorer (which the user guide tells you to open) says at the top that my player is not connected. The USB is plugged in exactly the same was as though to charge it but it won't be recognized by the Media Explorer. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is it only possible to add or remove songs when the player is fully charged?
    Most of these posts are from people who were able to upload songs initially but are having problems down the road. I saw tips about reinstalling firmware on the player and other things, but as the player is brand new it seems unlikely that it is corrupted. I already tried reinstalling the software it comes with on my computer, just to check.
    Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

    I installed all of the software on another computer in my house and the player was recognized and I was able to copy some files onto it.
    The problem could be with my USB's or the bits of software I omitted when installing it. Right now I'm uninstalling everything and going to reinstall it later this evening. If it doesn't work then, I'll be back. My computer is updated and so is my Windows Media Player.
    The end.

  • Zen Microphoto won't sync anymore, but is recogni

    Firstly let me say my Zen Microphoto has been syncing and working fine right up until now.
    I have XP MCE SP2 installed...
    But I am thinking perhaps the problem it won't sync is because I upgraded from Windows Media Player 0 to just today?
    What happens is it plugs in, and charges. A couple of times the MTP device box pops up asking me what I want to do and I double click on sync with Media Player. However then it goes away and nothing happens, and Media Player cannot detect it -- but nor can Microphoto Media Explorer, so perhaps it is not a problem with Media Player?
    I have searched around the forum and the only solution available is to delete the USB devices in Device Manager, reboot and let them reinstall, but I really don't want to do that, I don't know if anything will stuff up or not -- I have resetted the player and performed a scan disc, and it seems fine.
    Thanks for any help guys
    EDIT: When trying to reinstall the driver (with Creative cd in dri've) I now get this message: "A service installation section in this INF is invalid" and it says my hardware may not work properly. Nothing has changed except now I have an exclamation mark on my Creative Zen Microphoto icon in Device Manager and I can't properly install the driver, with the proper cd! This is extremely frustrating!
    Also, I have downloaded those three updates I've seen Mods list here a couple times for people with the same problemMessage Edited by psycho_orange0 on 05-8-2006 07:33 AM

  • HT2497 Using Time Machine for home wifi just fine. Switched to cable modem from DSL.  Now having trouble connecting laptops to wifi. ISP says it is not their fault. Mac books won't connect on their own.

    Changed from DSL to cable modem. Now Mac book pro won't connect to wifi - Time Machine?
    One Mac ok, other not. Help?

    Thanks. We have been using an existing Time Machine for wifi.  Cable modem replaced DSL router and was hooked up to Time Machine. What's odd is that 3 computers and iPad2 are connecting to home wifi just fine, using exact same network and password as before. My Mac book pro and an older iPad are not. IPhones are also connecting to home wifi just fine. I managed to get my Mac book pro hooked one time by copying ip address from a Mac that was working (entered manually) then turning that one off. That's not what I need.
    The error message is "no ip address".

  • Zen Xtra won't connect for Firmware Install. WMP Rolled back to v

    My Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra would not load firmware from it's hard dri've. It only entered into a cycle of displaying the 'Creative' then 'EAX' screens. I Downloaded the latest version of firmware 'ZenXtraP4SAudible_PCFW_LB_2_0_03' and installed it following the instructions on the Creative website.
    The install started initially but then failed because either the software installing the firmware, or the zen xtra, locked up. I left it for nearly an hour and had no choice but to cancel and try again.
    Since this time I have been unable to load any version of firmware to the zen xtra. The installer says that the zen is not connected even though it is. When I do connect it, the 'autoplay' dialog appear asking me what to do. So, the computer recognises the device as 'NOMAD Jukebox Zen Xtra' but the firmware installer will not recognise it at all.
    I have carried out a 'Reload OS' in preparation for new firmware. I have also carried out a 'Format All' and 'Clean Up' from the Recovery Menu that the zen xtra is now stuck in. All appears to be fine with the Zen's hard dri've as, on completion of the format, the hard dri'ves shows 'Freespace 3833.7MB'.
    I have looked on this discussion forum and FAQ and this appears to be a common problem but have found no solutions. I have tried uninstalling Windows Mediaplayer and rolled back to v0 and reinstalling drivers and MediaSource software but problem persists. Please help.

    OK. Sorted it! Try this!
    http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9829
    Turns out you have to uninstall Windows Media Player Runtime v as well as WMP itself.
    Also, if you have the problem with reduced HDD space because of installing PlayForSure firmware, you could install a bigger hard dri've. They are the generic 2.5 inch hard dri'ves fitted in Laptop Computers! My 40Gb Zex Xtra now has the 80Gb HDD I removed from my VAIO! And it was easier to do on the Zen than it was on the VAIO!

  • Zen Xtra won't connect to WinXP after firmware and driver upda

    I have 40GB Zen Xtra on which I've installed the .20.08 firmware. I've also installed driver update .30.03 on WinXP. Immediately after doing that, my Zen refused to connect to the system. Normally, I'd get the 2-tone "device-connected" alert from the system after plugging it in. Now I get a single tone, repeated 3 times quickly and the Zen is inaccessible. (I do get the normal "device disconnected" sound when I unplug it or power it off). The player works fine, otherwise--I just can't sync it to the library on my PC. Anyone know what's up with this?

    Well, that doesn't help. I uninstalled every Creative thing--the driver, MediaSource, etc--restarted the computer and installed the .30.03 version;? no joy, same symptoms. I uninstalled that, restarted? my machine and installed the .20.04c version driver, which seems to be the latest WHCL certified one. No change.

  • Zen MicroPhoto Won't Turn

    I was at the gym this morning and my Zen player died. It was at least half way charged yesterday morning. And I've only had it for about a month. It's never been dropped or gotten wet. When I plug it into my computer to see if it will charge it won't even reconize it's pluged in. Has anyone had this problem before?

    Nope there is no power what so ever to the player. When it died thought the player was still lite. It just wasn't playing anything. As for a wall charger I don't have one. So I have no way of trying that.

  • Zen Micro won't connect to

    Im having this weird problem with my Zen Micro 5gb, I used to connect it to my laptop previously but now my laptop is broken and i've been trying to connect it to my computer and everytime i do it just freezes with the lighting charge sign and the song playing, and on my task tray it shows unknown usb device plugged in, and it wont recognize it because my zen freezes. I had no problems with my laptop and am curious if anyone has had this same problem and is willing to help, it's getting me angry cause i really like my creative and i had no previous problems and my laptops been broken for about a month now and i havent been able to use my player. I also bought a charger a little while back, but for some reason i cant ever fully charge my mp3 player, the most it will go to even after leaving it for like a full day of charging is the first bar. If anyone is willing to help me with my problems thanks alot! Looking forward to hopefully using my Zen Micro for a long time!

    I have had this problem creep up on me lately, but it doesn't happen every time though. I've been able to get around it by trying two or three times to reconnect it, but a couple of times it got right stubborn. In that situation, it seemed restarting my PC did the trick.
    Not sure if that helps, but...

    Thanks

    I doubt so. If it has this feature, then Creative would probably have already marketed it as one of the key features.
