Vision:M 30GB and windows explorer

hi
I saw no mention of this in the manual but you can just copy/paste mp3's with Explorer (rather than via WMP0 or Creative bloatware).
I was quite pleased about this (as I try to keep my PC fairly "clean").
Are there any major disadvantages to this method ?
At the moment, I'm not really interested in creating playlists...just filling up the player with mp3's and playing them (either by album or randomly).

PS Is it true that ZEN Vision, version .40.03e firmware loses FM recording ? What's that all about then...:manmad:Message Edited by swayzak on 07-9-2006 05:5 AM

I know this thread is old, but I'm having this same issue. WMP2 will find it fine on my Windows 7 64-bit. When trying to use ZENCast Organizer, it will not connect. On top of that, none of the settings I set in ZENCast organizer related to the Zen Vision:M will stay set. Something to do with the use of ProgramData folder in Win 7?

Can anyone recommend a solution?

If I set the default program for viewing PDF as Acrobat XI Pro the a PDF file will open with Acrobat XI Pro, but in Outlook I will get a white screen and the information bubble "This file cannot be previewed because there is no previewer installed for it" and in Windows Explorer I get a white screen in the preview pane.

Ipod freezes itunes and windows explorer

I have been trying to connect a new 30G Ipod to my Vista computer and everytime I do both Itunes and Windows Explorer freeze. Neither recognize my ipod. I tried to change the drive designation but couldn't because of Explorer freezing. I did run the same Ipod on my XP and everything worked fine so it is a problem with my Vista computer or with the ITunes (7.2.035) software. Any ideas?

Disconnect the printer, use a rear port on your computer and try it again.

Creative Zen Vision M 30gb and Vista.

Is there a way to get a Creative Zen Vision M 30gb to work on a Vista computer? It will save me buying my son a new MP3 player. Thanks.

I've been in touch with Creative support for over a week now but so far without success. Every time I download links they suggest I still can't access Creative Media Explorer, I just keep getting this error message:-
"The Creative Media Explorer that is compatible with this device is not installed. Please reinstall the application and try again"
This has included deleting all previously installed Crteati've files as well as downloading in a 'Clean Boot'. I've also rebooted my Zen Vision M.
At this rate I'll have to bin the Zen and look at an ipod:manmad:

Cannot log into T61 from remote computer with wired network and Windows Explorer.

Hi,
I am using a T61 7662-cto with Windows 7 Professional
When the T61 is connected on the home network with the wired network, I am not able to log into it remotely from another computer. On my second computer, I see the T61 with Windows Explorer but instead of getting the login window, it appears a Network Error with the message:
“Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise, there might be a problem with your network.” With a error code 0x80070035, “The network path was not found.” I tried the “Diagnose” button but it doesn’t give solution.
When the T61 is wireless connected, there is no problem. I can access it from my second computer.
I never have problem to connect to the second computer from the T61 with any connection type . I just updated the Intel Wireless LAN (bg, abg, abgn) for Windows 7 – ThinkPad, with the drivers required but it changes nothing.

Do you have a hint for this issue why the wired network gives problem?
Thanks

Classic 160GB, Itunes and Windows Explorer all disagree on how much space is on the Ipod

Hi,
I restored and resynced my Ipod Classic 160GB (about 2.5-3 years old) to see if it would help a problem I was having when plugging it into my stereo receiver via USB (the receiver was only recognizing it for four or five songs, then losing the connection).
It took a long time to restore the Ipod, due to the size of the collection and the number of MP3s that I had it convert to AACs.
The Ipod, which had had the exact same songs on it before with 2.7 GB left over, now claimed to have only 53 MB of empty space. Looking at the drive in Windows Explorer, it had 2.6 GB. In Itunes, the Ipod appeared to be 6 GB OVER its capacity.
So I took a chance and defragged and optimized the drive. It made it better, but not fixed:
Now, the Ipod claims that it has 2.3 GB of empty space remaining; looking at it as a drive in Windows, it appears to have 2.6 GB remaining; Itunes, however, claims that the Ipod is totally full (2.5 GB OVER CAPACITY), so it won't add the final 3,000 songs or so to my Ipod.
I know that this all fit on the Ipod fine before the restore - with the same songs checked in my library, I had 2.7 GB left over.
Also, now Itunes reads the Ipod and says that it has 12.6 GB (!!!) of "Other." I have no video, no photos, no contacts on the Ipod or in the library - nothing other than music and album cover images. There's no way that I'd have 12 gigs that I didn't know about.
Should I assume that the drive is dying? Is there anything that I can do to make this better?
Thanks for your help.

Also, does an Ipod running on Windows need the "metadata_never_index" file? I don't remember this being on the pod until recently, and from what I've read it's a file for connection to Macs.

Ipod not recoginized in itunes and windows explorer but is charging

ok here's the deal, like it says in the subject line, when I hook it to my pc it charges but isn't recognized by itunes or windows explorer. I've already reset the ipod (by holding down center and menu button.) and I've already uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. Just got done checking services. The ipod service was set to manual, so I restarted it and changed it to automatic. Then I reset the ipod and plugged it back in, still no good?!?!?!?
Any ideas, besides something super drastic. Thanks in advance
Forgot to mention that I have a iPod Classic.

PC suite and Windows Explorer

- I am using Windows Professional v2002 Service Pack 2.
- I have installed Nseries PC Suite that came with my N95 8GB. (Have installed several of the other applications that came with this including Nseries LifeBlog v2.5, Nseries Content Copier, etc.
- I can connect to the N95 fine to transfer photos, install applications, etc.
- However, I cannot browse the data folder of the N95 from Windows Explorer. I used to be able to do this with the previous version of PC suite I had installed. I need this to be able to transfer log files from our Symbian application. All I can do at the moment is transfer pictures, etc, which is no use for development.
Does anyone have a solution for this?

Nokia has 2 versions of PC Suite:
The version which is dedicated to Nseries devices and Nokia Pc Suite 6.xx something that is more "generic" for any Nokia model (providing the phone can be connected to a PC).
The features are a bit different and Phone Browser is missing from NSeries Suite.
Both are updated on a regular basis, so maybe the messaging side a appear also in Nseries version, but I too use the more generic version, main reason is that I have several phones (N95, E61 and 5300) and they all work well with Nokia PC SUite 6.8512, which I just updated 2 days ago from www.nokia.com/pcsuite

XMP and Windows Explorer

How can I set XMP data in a PDF file and display the data in columns in Windows XP Explorer?
I have tried pixvue from www.pixvue.com bit it only works for images - not PDF files.
Any ideas?

Greetings,
We have done such a tool,, it contains a windows explorer like clone, as well as a column handler for Windows explorer but it is in an alpha stage, so it may cause problems in certain cases. You can download the tool here:

We are currently working on a BETA version of the tool, that will hopefully be available soon.

Connecting iPod launches iTunes and Windows Explorer

Just curious. Is there any way to keep my iPod from launching Windows Explorer via Autoplay when connecting it to my PC via USB? Currently it opens an instance of Windows Explorer showing the contents of the iPod as a storage device and then about 30 seconds later launches iTunes as well. I'd like a succesful connection to launch only iTunes - and without the delay if possible.
Thanks for your help!

Itunes and Windows Explorer crash when ipod attached

Hi, for some reason my ipod has started to crash both my laptop and my home desktop computer whenever i attach it. It shows up in Windows Explorer but if i click on the icon it crashes the window. Similarly, Itunes opens if i attach my ipod but then freezes straight away, but then if i take out my ipod it starts to work fine again. Im starting to think that seeing as this is happening on more than one computer it might be a fault with the ipod. Any ideas?!
O and it's a 120gb ipod classic and im using the most up to date itunes on vista.
Thanks alot

Im starting to think that seeing as this is happening on more than one computer it might be a fault with the ipod.
I'm with you on that. By any chance do you have a spare USB cable (or have access to a different one)? If so, try experimenting with connecting using the other cable. Do you still get the freeze with that?

Zen vision m 30gb and z

When my zen vision m 30gb is sat in the z500 playdock everything functions as it should but the following day (if i have had it on about 5hours) the zen is dead and just flickers on when put back into z500 then stays off. I noticed that the battery is down to the red so i presume that is why it goes off. I thought itshould recharge whilst on z500!
My zen does recharge separately with its own charger,it has the latest firmware so is the z500 faulty?or is it something else?any advice would be great!

well,its still not charging and nobody has an answer

Zen Micro and windows explore

My computer DOES recognize my player because i can sync it with WMP or Winamp or even Mediasource. But what I cannot do (which i previously was able to do) is browse my player VIA Windows Explorer ie. My Computer. Any ideas?

dudemag,
If you're not using firmware version 2.xx(PlayForSure firmware), the player won't show up in Windows Explorer as a device. If you're using firmware version .xx, install the Zen Micro Media Explorer software. The software will integrate with Windows Explorer so you can manage it from there.
