Where is the Firmware for the Zen Sleek Ph

Hi,
I've been having problems with my Zen Sleek Photo ever since I bought it 2 months ago. Every so often it would freeze on boot-up, so I would have to reset it with a pin to get it to start up. This morning it started going really haywire so I decided to reload the firmware - of course, my disks are at home and when I looked on the creative site here at work, there was no sign of any firmware for the Zen Sleek Photo (it's almost like Creative don't realise this product exists!). Anyway, where can I download the latest firmware?

I think Creative should add the Sleek Photo to the player list in downloads and add the latest version there (I have version .0.0e). I ordered my player in December (for Christmas). There are a few issues that I have addressed in my "A few annoyances with Zen Sleek Photo 20GB (Request)" thread.
Sadly there has not yet been an update to fix the artist listings etc. as mentioned in my thread
I got in contact with another Creative Zen Sleek Photo user who also li'ves in Switzerland and has the same problems (tracks not been sorted correctly even with correct ID3 tags, which work in many many Windows applications).
By the way, sadly the Sleek Photo gets a load of dust under the screen too, unless you are very careful. I have been unable to remove most of the dust even using compressed air! I would rather not have to get it replaced because of this (unless Creative makes a slightly new casing model to prevent dust under screen) as I would probably end up paying rather a lot for postage (it's going indirectly through another company)
I hope there shall soon be a firmware update addressing these things,
Thanks for any response to this,

  • Where to Find the Firmware for Creative Zen

    Hi I am having firmware problem in my Creative Zen 20g (The larger version of Zen Micro).
    I tried resetting the player and the Firmware Problem always appear.
    Can anyone send me the link where could i download this firmware?
    I tried searching it on the web and found no luck.

    If support have a firmware they might be able to send it to you. But often in these situations they want the player returned. It's a shame that the base firmware isn't available for download.

  • I updated the firmware for the fan on my macbook, but now....

    the fan is really loud. It was more quiet before i updated it, is there anyway to uninstall the update??
    thanks

    My CPU usuage is very low, as the fan kicks in hard after 30 to 40 seconds after boot up.
    This WAS a problem free macbook until I installed firmware update 1.1, wish I hadn't bothered
    Done all the PRAM resets, Disk utilites etc... nothing works.
    Apple support told me to re install OSX and do a selective Software update excluding the SMC update to 1.1. Told me to wait for update 1.2

  • HT4904 went to install the proper version of the firmware for the early 2011 macbook pro and it came up stating that it wouldn't work on my computer??? is this because like a fool I upgraded my macbook to Mavericks?

    with mavericks installed does that mean I already have the ability of runing the recovery function from the internest or what do I need to do to get the latest firmware on my system. thanks for your time and asistance

    All Macs running OS X Lion or newer have got Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718 However, Mid 2010 and newer MacBooks Pro support Internet Recovery through a firmware update.
    If you have got a Mid 2010 or newer MacBook Pro, you need to install a EFI update to install Internet Recovery, so open  > Software Update, and install all updates. If you do not see any EFI update, you already have got Internet Recovery. You can start up in Internet Recovery by holding down Command, Option (Alt) and R keys while your Mac is starting up.
    If you have got an older MacBook Pro, you cannot use Internet Recovery, but you have got the Recovery partition to reinstall Mac OS X. To start up into OS X Recovery, hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting up.

  • Downgrading Firmware for the Superdrive

    Hey there everyone.
    I have a G4 Quicksilver that I'm trying to install OSX onto. I have retail purchased installer discs, but for some reason the computer will not boot from them. I suspect the firmware for the Superdrive. It will boot from CDs that have OS9 on them, but not OSX. I remember updating the firmware a while ago and experiencing some quirkiness in its performance, but not enough to warrant further investigation. When I try to install firmware updates now, either it tells me I've already done it, or that it's not the right firmware upgrade. Is there a way to go back? If I do, will the OSX installer tell me to reinstall the firmware update before I go any further?
    Thanks, Ninja Bob

    Hi, NinjaBob. There is rarely, if ever, any way to downgrade the firmware of anything after updating it.
    Do you just have one OS X installer disc set? If so, examine Disc 1 of that set very carefully for dirt, scratches, smudges, fingerprints, and pinholes in the data layer. It's possible that a disc defect is at the root of your difficulty, and your drive is fine.

  • HT202044 Why does my iPad say that it has to download the firmware for my AV adapter when I plug it in?

    I am trying to play videos from my iPad to my TV, but when I plug in my AV adapter to my iPad it says it has to download the firmware for the accsory. And it is supposidly already downloading when the message pops up I can never see any type of status bar or anything like that.

    That appears to be a bug in iOS 8.2. Restoring your iPad to Factory settings has fixed it for those reporting the problem.

    You can download a firmware update from the Downloads page, like this one:
    <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="00%" bgColor=#eeeeee border=0>
    <TBODY>
    <TR vAlign=top>
    <TD height=5><FONT color=blue>Creative Zen Micro Firmware ..0 (<FONT color=#222222 size=><B>2.03 MB</B>) </TD>

    Have you tried running a firmware update file like that one? Do you know which firmware you had on the player before you choose reload OS?

  • How to install firmware for the WRT54G

    I have downloaded the newest firmware for this router, but the file is a .bin. There is no .cue, .iso or other file associated with it. How do I open this file, or burn it?
    I tried creating a .cue file using a .txt text editor:
    FILE "WRT54Gv5v6_v1.02.2_fw.bin" BINARY
    TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
    INDEX 01 00:00:00,
    and renamed it WRT54Gv5v6_v1.02.2_fw.cue
    Roxio's Creator Classic will burn it to a CD, but when I try to load it by inserting the disk, the disk is blank - but shown as 100% used in raw format.
    Any suggestions? Why would Linksys provide this firmware in this truly complicated format?

    You point your browser at http://192.168.1.1/ This is the LAN IP address of the router inside your LAN. You can connect to this address when you are connected to the router. You don't need internet for that.
    The router came with a firmware preinstalled. Without the firmware the router is just a piece of junk. The configuration program on the CD only sends settings to the working and operating router, i.e. a router which is running its firmware. You can update the firmware by uploading a new firmware file to the router. But there was no firmware on the CD nor was it installed anywhere during initial setup. The router came with a firmware otherwise you could not use it.
    Just go to http://192.168.1.1/ and click on the Administration tab. The firmware upgrade function is somewhere on a subtab. You'll see a browse button with which you select the firmware file you downloaded before. Once you press the Upgrade button (please only do it if you really want to upgrade the firmware!) the browser sends the selected firmware file to the router where it will be installed after the router reboots itself.
    There is no point installing it from a CD as you only have to transfer the file to the router. Burning it to a CD only to load it from the CD does not make a different. As you have mentioned it does not make a difference where the firmware file is. Only as you have to download it anyway and then just transfer it to the router there is no point in burning it on a CD. You upload it to the router and that's it. Afterwards you delete the file because you don't need it anymore and you can download the latest firmware from linksys.
    When you write "DSL, cable and even VoIP modems" upgrading using any OS, did you ever do it? How exactly did you do it? Are you sure there is an updater for MacOS? Linux? Solaris? ... I think most modems will do it in a similar fashion using a browser upload.
    I don't understand what the problem is with this kind of firmware upgrade for you. It works very well and is often used. Many devices have browser interfaces nowadays and thus it is only natural you do the firmware upgrades the same way. The router can be upgraded using tftp as well. However, there are a few pitfalls with this method and often you'll need a command line prompt to run it. But these are the only possibilities to send the firmware file to the router and somehow you have to get it there.

  • Cannot find the latest firmware for the Toshiba 40TL838G

    Hi,
    I'm trying to download the last firmware for the model 40TL838G but I can't find it.
    Where can I find it?
    Thank you.

    Are you sure that TV is connected to internet properly?
    How did you connect it? LAN / WLan stick (TOSHIBA Dual Band WLAN-Adapter WLM-20U2)?
    In some cases it could be possible that some routers dont pass the firmware update due to locked ports. In such case you should check your router configuration. As additional option you could try to test the TV in connection with another network

  • Need new firmware for the drive (Mat****a UJDA750)

    I have a Satellite M30 with a Mat****a UJDA750 combo drive. Does anyone know where I could get a new firmware for the drive?
    Thx.

    Hi,
    It would be up to Toshiba to release an official firmware update for this drive and at the moment they do not have one.
    You could of course look at 3rd party sites such as cdfreaks.com.
    Regards,

  • Dust behind the screen of my zen sleek ph

    Hello,?a while ago there started to form dust behind the screen of my zen sleek photo, and it is just increasing there is quite an amount of dust behind it now. I never take my zen sleek photo to dusty places and always treat it carefully. I would like creative to repair this or send me a new one since it's a failure of the device. It's not supposed to be possible that dust comes behind the screen and yet it does. If someone could tell me where i can get it repaired/replaced/or a refund that would be appreciated. regards.

  • Seagate SN06 firmware for the Seagate Barracuda ES.2

    Oh Dear!
    Despite emailing Seagate, and consulting their Knowledge base, we cannot locate the lovely firmware for the ES.2 drives [the SN06 firmware] to get our system up and running again.
    If anyone is in the know, we'd love some info or advice.
    Best wishes,
    Macintosh Lou and all the sound designers who are twidding their thumbs.

    Hi,
    I just did it after burning the ISO in the CD.
    While booting I got the first call to initDisk, where it provided way to skip some loading (like config.sys and so on)... I didn't do anything, I left it run normally.
    After few seconds it was showing me the readme file automatically.
    I pressed F10 to quit the view and it gave me the prompt to load the firmware for 750GB and 1000GB disks (this image was working for both sizes).
    I chose my disk size, then the system searched and recognized my disk properly (I checked and it did display my disk's S/N and model properly, including notice that I had SN05 on it).
    Then it started uploading the firmware and finally it asked to power cycle the PC for proper finalization.
    I did press enter and it shutdown the MacPro.
    I then restarted with only that disk inserted and again the FreeDos sequence came up.
    I shut it down again (I think it was unnecessary) and I proceeded re-installing all the other HDD in their original locations.
    Booted from MacOs X and all was perfect (at least I hope this SN06 will fix forever the issue).
    Hopefully you will get into this same point.
    Cheers,
    Armando.

    Hello,
    As far as I know, DVD±RW disc drives are automatically detected by Microsoft Windows XP and newer versions of Windows.  Are you looking for the latest firmware?  The latest update I could find for a T61 is here on Lenovo's support web site.

  • On installation of Firefox 4 beta, it tells me that it won't run on my Mac. When I go to system requirements, it takes me to a page for Firefox3.6 requirements. Where can I find the requirements for the beta?

    The link to system requirements for Firefox 4 beta takes you to a page that gives you the requirements for Firefox 3.6 instead. I assume that the requirements for the beta are different as I can't seem to install the beta on my Macs. Where can I find the beta system requirements?

    I never expected Mozilla to neglect the users of Apple's PowerPC (PPC) computers, while still supporting much older operating environments such as Windows XP. So, I should just throw away a $6,000 system, which is still fast and functional, and contribute masses of heavy metals to land-fills because…?
    I'm hurt and confused after supporting Firefox for many years — installing and using it not only on my own computers but on most of my customers' computers. Now I have to tell my customers with PPC Macs they can't have a secure cross-platform browsing experience from Mozilla. They'll have to learn to use some other browser, or buy a new computer.
    If one doesn't buy a new computer every year, one doesn't deserve Firefox 4. This is sort of sounding more like a Microsoft™© doctrine. (But wait, I can still have Firefox 4 on a ''SERIOUSLY CRAPPY WINDBLOWS XP pile of rubbish?!'') Please open your eyes Mozilla. This just doesn't make sense.
