USB Car Stereo and Creative Zen To

Hi all,
I understand that plugging my Zen touch 20GB into a car stereo using its integrated USB port wont work. However, If I drag my MP3s into the Data storage section of my player (so it will be acting as a storage device), will they play through the car stereo with USB?
Thanks!

Amraam,
The Data storage section of the Zen Touch isn't of Mass storage class so I don't think it will work with your car stereo system assuming those stereo system work with mass storage class device.

IPod Touch 4th Gen skipping and popping via USB car stereo...

I have a Pioneer AVH-P3100DVD car stereo and have the iOS 4.2.1 installed on my iPod Touch 4th Gen. Since 4.0.2 my iPod Touch has been flawless with playback. We all know the infamous 4.1 problems with the skipping of music via USB car in-dash car stereos. NOW, with the iOS 4.2.1 there is no skipping whatsoever. However, there is a lot of popping in the playback of my car stereo via USB. I've did a factory restore with iTunes and used some dust remover (air spray container) in the connector on the bottom of the iPod and also used the same dust remover on my USB syncing cable that I use in my car. Does anyone know what the problem may be? Thanks in advance.

I can't help with an answer, but i have noticed the same thing whenever i hook my ipod up to my pioneer 510-ub through the usb...all other mp3s and flashdrives work fine. the pops only occur when the ipod is hooked up.

JVC AVX44 Car Stereo and iPhone 3G

Hey all,
Does anyone have a JVC AVX44 car stereo and use it with their iPhone 3G? I'm wanting to buy one of them and I want to know how well the handsfree bluetooth works between them.
Thanks!

Docking Ipod Nano to usb car stereo

My wife purchased an Ipod nano (3rd generation) as a gift for me. I already have a generation 1 (only use it in car) and have no problem with it, this new one just WILL NOT WORK in the car, does anybody know why & how this can be resolved? NB - I connect it via the stereos built in USB socket.

Nano 3G only works with USB 1.1 and 2, the older ones used to work with USB 1.0 and that is probably the explanation for what you are seeing. Apple's compatibility table doesn't show that USB 1.1 works, but I know by experience, my PC has both.
Of course I don't know what kind of port your car stereo has, so I might be wrong.

Blutooth Problem with car stereo and iPhone5

Got new iPhone 5 yesterday and paired it with car stereo for handsfree use. When I make a call I can use radio answer button and the speakers. When I receive a call I can only use handset. iPhone 4 worked fine so I doubt it is the car. I deleted and repaired the phone yet still the same issue. Help?

Hey nippers1!
It does sound like we have a conflict with your device and your car Bluetooth. Thanks for doing that great troubleshooting! I would like to ask, have you checked with your car manufacture to see if the phone was compatible with your car's Bluetooth? Sometimes different devices that have different Bluetooth profiles will work differently. Can other iPhone 5s connect at all? Can your iPhone 5 connect and use other Bluetooths fully? Also, are you having any problems with making and receiving calls in general? Also, is your device up to date? Please make sure it is on the most current software. Please report back!

Itunes and Creative Zen players

Hi
We have both PC's and Macs at home and while I have a new IPod Touch, my wife has a Creative Zen Touch player.
How can we transfer songs from her Itunes library from either her PC (Itunes for Windows) or my Mac (Itunes for OS X)?
thanks

iPod supports MP3 and AAC. Zen supports MP3 and WMA. So make sure the songs you are talking about are in MP3 format.
If on the same computer, add the MP3s in the iTunes library to the Windows Media Player library. If on a different computer, copy them over, using a handy medium such as a flash drive.
Assire that your future purchases do not contain DRM. There is no DRM scheme that is common to both iPod and Zen.

Tiger and creative zen vision

hi. i live in the us but i am currently visiting in paris, france. i brought my g3 ibook (new to me) and my creative zen vision with me but no software to transfer music from the zen to the mac. that is what i need to do now to continue with some video projects i'm working on. i've tried to use itunes, real player, and nowhere in the software do i get any indication that my zen is plugged in. i've gone into itunes and authorized this computer... that's the most "advanced" thing i've gone. when i plug the zen into the mac, the zen does turn on but there is no icon. i've searched all over the forums for hours now and can't figure out what to do next. thanks for any help. ~laura

Hello laura
Creative don't supply drivers for Macs, only windows, but there is third party driver support for Macs from XNJB

ITunes and Creative ZEN....

Is ITunes compatible with Creative's ZEN VISION: M. how do i sync them if they are???

For a more direct Cocoa-based interface with your Creative Zen player, you might try looking at the XNJB software. Support for the Creative Vision:M is only beta level in the current release (version 1.2.1, April 15, 2006) -- not as advanced as support for other Zen Nomad players, but you can try checking the forums at the XNJB site for reactions from other Vision;M users. This is freeware, and since you have 10.4 you should simply be able to download the binary. More generally, Panther users can compile the source code. Intel is supported. Here is another article describing the XNJB effort with a screenshot. Hope this helps

Pioneer car stereo and iOS 7?

I recently purchased a Pioneer car stereo so that I could play music from my iPod Touch 5G. (My stock stereo did not have a conntection). I uploaded the new iOS 7 and plugged it in the morning on the way to work and there was an error on the car stereo. Then the iPod said (this is not a compatible device). Obviously it is the new OS that caused this. What can I do? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not tell me that I have to contact Pioneer to rectify the issue. THANK YOU!!

- First reset the car system, and reset the iPod,
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Contact Pioneer. Maybe there is firmware update for the car system
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem then the iOS update broke compatibility. That happens sometimes. You will have to wait for a iOS update or a firmware update to the car system

IPhone 4 with iOS6 crackling and popping with USB car stereo playback

I have just recently upgraded the head unit in my car to an Alpine CDE-133BT. Ever since I bought t I've been using the USB (Made for iPhone) slot. For the first month I had no problems at all, perfect quality playback and functioned fine. The other day though, I noticed an intermittent crackling coming through the speakers. It can't be a defective head unit, or the speakers, as it plays CD's/Aux/Radio absolutely fine.
Anyone else with similar problem?

I can't help with an answer, but i have noticed the same thing whenever i hook my ipod up to my pioneer 510-ub through the usb...all other mp3s and flashdrives work fine. the pops only occur when the ipod is hooked up.

Windows Vista and Creative Zen Touch/ Creative Media Sou

Hey there, I just got a shiny new laptop with Windows Vista (32 bit) and would like to install the media source player. Unfortunately I lost the CD with the installation long time ago. I downloaded all kinds of files for the Zen (the media player and the drivers) from the Creative site, but I just can't get it to work. Can anyone please tell which files I need to download and in which order That would be lovely! Many thanks,Julia

I would work through the reset procedures given under the various FAQ threads and then try the firmware upgrade again after getting it out of recovery mode as that seems to be the issue. There seem to be a number of threads with things to try. I would not give up but first work through the various suggestions to get it out of recovery mode. Then post separately re the recovery mode problem to see if anyone has ideas for solving that first. Did it go into recovery mode immediately after the firmware upgrade? Will it let you try to do the firmware again?When I connect it takes about 20 secs before the player is recognized by media player. In terms of transfer to your own laptop - do you have a burner on the friends PC for burning a DVD or 2. Or a slower way is multiple transfers using a USB memory stick.

Mono to FM Stereo on Creative Zen Microph

Hi I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. I have just bought a Zen Microphoto. The radio seems to be stuck on mono. Can anyone tell me how I can get FM Stereo? Thanks

I think it depends on the radio station and how good of a signal you're getting that determines whether you get stereo or mono.

Software Autoupdate and Creative Zen Xtra 30GB Mp3 Pla

Hi,
I recieved a replacement for my Zen Xtra which broke under warranty (very unimpressed with Creative at the moment) and since the scroll wheel wasn't working properly I installed the latest firmware and now that's OK.
However while using the Software Autoupdate to do this I also installed the latest of all the other software for the mp3 player. Since this I haven't been able to use my DVD player at all (It's still installed but doesn't notice any disks) - the two are DEFINATELY related since it stopped working virtually as the software installed. Everything I could download there (Mediasource etc) installed except for the Jukebox drivers which give an error.
The other problem is that although I've been able to uninstall all the other stuff Mediasource is still installed and is stuck that way - "An installation support file could not be installed. The system could not find the file specified." - looks like Creative haven't updated their uninstall program for the new version of Mediasource to me.
I've emailed Creative technical support but I wondered if anyone here'd had the same problem and is there any way to fix it without formatting? (It'll be impossible to format and reinstall XP without a working DVD dri've...).
Could anyone link me some sort of iso/bin/etc of the CD that comes with the player itself? I might be able to install that with Daemon Tools and then see if I can persuade it to uninstall itself then.
Any ideas?

Anecdotally they will honour the warranty of the country you purchased in, so 90 days parts and labour for the USA, and you might get another 9 months parts only...

Audiosync and Creative zen to

Sadly, my computer is only 2GB and my soon-to-get-here zen touch is 20GB. I was wondering if there is anyway to load my cds onto the zen and the current mp3s i have on my computer. I figure this is probably not a problem, but if I load my cds onto the zen and then take them off my computer, will they be deleted from my zen next time I audiosync? if so, is there a way to work around this? If you cant tell, i don't know too much about the audiosync feature yet, there is very little info I can find online about it.
thank you

They will not be deleted from your zen when you sync up. You can choose to sync from your zen to your comp(songs on the zen are copied and placed on your gard dri've), from your comp to your zen (all song in your PC library are copied and placed on your zen) and there is also simultaneous sync up which does both at the same time, I think. I haven't used it so I can't say for sure.

Autorun and Creative Zen Mi

Hi, we just bought Zen Micro the other day. Have not been able to install the disk. It gives us the following error message:
Autorun.exe - The instruction at "0x0040cab2" referenced memory at "0x00002a29". The memory cold not be "written". Click on OK to terminate the program.
If anyone could help us, that'd be greatly appreciated. BTW, we run Win2000.

Do you get this error repeatedly? Always the same error?
Are you an experienced computer user?
Try just opening the CDROM in explorer, bypassing the Autorun feature. (I'm assuming that you know how to do that, meaning you answered yes to the 'experienced user Q above)
The autorun is set to start up the \ctrun\start.exe file, so try that. Or try any other program with the name 'setup' that looks good to you.
Also, you may wanna make sure you're logged on as Administrator (or with a user in the Admin group), so that driver install can actually be done.
Finally, I'm using win xp here. I'm assuming, but have no real clue, that win 2000 is a supported platform.
