Which MP3 Player?? Help Ple

Well, My wife's Micro headphone jack broke today. This is the 3rd time for her. I have had the jack on my Micro break 3 times also. She is dead set on getting an iPod because of all of not only her trouble buy my trouble too. I am tired of babying my player to only have it break.
Anyway, I am trying to get her to maybe upgrade to a different Creative product. I don't really care about photo capability. I just want an MP3 player. I really liked my Micro but it seems to have a design flaw. So I am thinking of getting the Sleek. Can anyone comment on the good and bad that they have encountered with this product. If you would suggest it to someone or not. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for your help,
Skee

If you guys really liked the Micro, check out the MicroPhoto ... I haven't heard of anyone yet (unless I missed it) that have headphone jack problems on the new MicroPhotos. It really is a great and sturdy player (I posted below about what happened to me today with mine).
I have owned all iPod models and still I think the Creative player is a much better player. You'll have to baby that iPod, too. ... probably more so ...

  • Zen mp3 player -- HELP ple

    We just opened and began installation and activation this hour. The player is not turning on. My son worked hard to earn money for this player and is in meltdown that it may not be broken. Someone please help me. What do we do?

    Once it's been plugged in for a while, if it still doesn't turn on, try pressing the reset button with a paperclip. If it still isn't working, hold down the play button and press reset again, then (still holding play) slide the on switch.
    Don't panic though, as even if there is a problem with it, you should find it quite painless to get a replacement.

    You should paste the object code in a HTML Snippet.
    All your songs and playlist should be in the MusicPlayerExample folder.
    And then test that all performs as it should.
    If you do that you have no problems.
    But you pasted the code in the HTML page itself after publishing. If you do you have to check the path to all the files.
    You would have found that there is no file here :
    http://web.me.com/cbarrywdw03/KlausBadelt/Credits_Blog/Entries/2010/4/swfobject. js
    Rule of thumb : Keep custom stuff out of the Site folder iWeb creates.
    I pasted your code in a HTML Snippet and 3 demo MP3s played in the flashplayer. So no problem there.

  • 4gb mp3 player help p

    I just got a 4gb mp3 player yesterday. It's the that plays music videos and stores photos. I installed everything on the computer and it charged from 7:47p.m. to around 5:0 5:5p.m. I try 2 turn it on but it's not working. i'm holding down the button for a while 2 like it said. I once held it down for like 5mins but it's just not turning on! did it charge 2 long r something because now it's not charging when i try anymore! did I overcharge it's PLZ HELP ME! i used all my b-day money on it and really wnat it 2 work.

    I take it you have either FireWire or USB to connect this with, no? If so, when you plug it in, and it's powered up, the player should mount with some sort of icon on the desktop.
    Does it do that, but then you can't do anything else? If you open the player desktop icon, what is inside?
    You may need to have a version of iTunes that has mp3 player support and I'm not sure if version 2 does. That's the last available for OS9. If not, try using Audion instead.
    Audion is at http://www.panic.com/audion/ - and don't forget to click the small 'free of charge' link to get the serial number to unlock the full functionality. Audion should 'see' your player then you can drag and drop your files from your music library into the playlist for it.
    There's really good instructions for it as well, as it's discontinued, but it's super powerful in that it can grab and record streams and do stuff that ANY version of iTunes still cannot.
    Good luck!

  • JWIN MP3 player--HELP!!!

    Hi everyone; first, I will say I am a computer/technology MORON!!  I got a JWIN MP3 player from my employer as an anniversary gift, and I am ready to throw it out a window.  I was able to download a few songs from MP3 Raid on the Web, and that's cool.  I tried last night to do several more and they didn't transfer; they are saved to my computer, though.  And I did the same steps as the first time, so I don't know what I am doing wrong.  Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!!

    Unless you can choose your anniversary gift, it is usually something small and/or cheap. Our 5 year anniversary gift is usually a stainless steel Skagen watch. I like it.

  • Which MP3 Player Should I buy?

    After using a MP3 player in my clunky  5 year old cell phone for years, I'd like to buy a player.  I understand that the I-tunes program that my sister downloaded onto my computer, along with her songs will only play on an Apple I-Pod.  Does that mean I have to buy an I-Pod, or can I use her songs on a different MP3 player?  Is the quality the same for the different brands?  I wouldn't be a fan of the monopoly that Apple has  if I can avoid it.  I just want something light to use for excercise, perhaps a Nano or Sony with 16 GB or so.
    Thanks

    Nokia is correct the iTunes files are in .m4a format. However you can easily right click on the song in iTunes and select "Create ___ Version". I left that blank in there because iTunes has different conversion options like convert it to mp3, acc, apple lossless, wav or aiff. I should also note this will not affect the original song. It will just make a second copy of it with one being the original in .m4a format and the second being in whatever format you selected.

  • Which mp3 player to buy????

    I need a touch screen mp3 player for a 7 year old. Nothing expensive, and want to be able to download apps (games)...any suggestions?

    Only item that comes to mind is iPod Touch, but I would buy an OtterBox for it so the unit dont get destroyed, and accessory package you are looking to spend almost $300 on it.
    Don't know of anything else on the market that is cheap right now that you can download apps and games to it except for a low end tablet computer running android and not capable of flash playback.

    Hello,
    If anyone on the Forum here can help me out I would appreciate it greatly!
    I am an insurance adjsuter and one of my clients had a bunch of things stolem, among them were two Creative Technology MP3 players. They could not remember a model, but did know that one had more memroy than the other, but...
    for some obscure reaosn they had the serial numbers of the two units.
    One is M2PF20642Rxxxxxx
    the other is MAPF6908350xxxxx
    Now those numbers may not be 00% correct, but is that enough information for someone to let me know what these were so I can get replacments for my client?
    Thanks in advance!
    claimsrep

    I was only able to find this:
    [LINKY]
    I suggest contacting your client and asking them to go online and look at all of creative's players to see which one it is. Maybe a Zen Micro, Microphoto, V, V Plus. Nano plus... I dont know.

    I used to have this problem too and it's due to some codec pack(Klite) I have installed. Reverting to an older version fix the problem for me.

  • Mp3 player help

    Hi everybody
    I have a question. I downloaded a template from a site for my new musical project. Totally new to flash but managed to get everything working great. My last hurdle is regarding mp3s. I have created a page on the site where people can go and listen to some of the tracks. My question is how do arrange it so that when someone clicks on a song it will play in flash. Complete novice here, so complex programming not an option
    thanks all

    MP3 players can be fairly complex, so you may not have any options... except maybe to purchase something that does what you want.  You'll need to explain and show what you have so far for any hope of getting some help.  You say you have a page where tracks can be listened to, so what does it currently do to realize that functionality?  What code is it using?

  • Which mp3 player to get???

    I'm looking to get my fiance a new one since his iriver broke recently. Looking for lots of storage, preferably a large face & buttons, one that will play movies well, etc etc. I've looked at the itouch, creative zens, sony walkmans...
    Any direction would be greatly appreciated. Thx

    Hi,
    Some things depend on how techno geeky your husband is. I have had a creative device before and Loved the thing to death. You don't have to be to techno geeky to get it to work and it plays more formats than the ipods. If he wants a large screen for movies you may want to look at the new Zune HD, some format restrictions but it is supposed to be pretty good quality video.
    My new toy is personally going to be the Archos 5. It has a five inch screen, the larges out right now, and a lot of memory. If you go for the hard drive storage payers you can get one up to 500gb. The player looks to need a little techy for some people, but only because it has more extras than I care to mention here. Also will play almost any format you can throw at it. 
    Good Luck. Hope you find something he likes

  • If you didn't have an MP3 player, and the Xtra and the Micro cost the same. what would you g

    Lets say the Xtra and the micro cost the same price. You don't have an Mp3 player yet. You still have the knowledge that you have now for both products.
    Which mp3 player would you pick and why?

    right now i own the micro. If i had the chance to pick again with the knowledge i have now, I would go with the Xtra.
    Because before i didn't know anything about bit rate...... I thought the micro could hold up to 2500songs.
    I learned that it will only hold about ,030 songs wma 60kb
    ps.
    NOT COOL.

  • Convert to MP3 format/Sync to MP3 player

    I have purchased songs from I-tunes for my MP3 player. I can see the songs on in the MP3 file, but can't play them...I think I need to convert the files to MP3 format, but am unsure how to do that. Also, how do you sync from I-Tunes onto my MP3 player?

    Can you clarify this a bit more. I assume you are saying that you purchased tracks from the iTunes music store? Is that correct?
    If so they are in AAC (MPEG-4) format. Do you know if they are protected tracks or if they are "Plus" (unprotected) tracks?
    For Plus tracks, you can import them by going into your preferences in iTunes and changing the IMPORT preference to MP3 format (if you are not already using it). Then "OK" out of preferences, find the songs you need to convert, right click on them and pick "Convert to MP3". This will make a new COPY of the file in MP3 format (the original AAC formatted version will remain there untouched).
    For protected tracks, you are not allowed to convert them directly to MP3 files. Instead, all you can do it add them to a playlist then burn them out to an AUDIO format CD. This converts them from AAC to a normal music CD like you would buy in the store. You can then treat the music CD like you would any other music CD including accessing it with iTunes like your store purchased music CDs.
    Once you have your MP3 files, usually all you need to do is drag and drop the files from the library window onto your MP3 player mounted on your computer. If it doesn't work directly from the library window, you can always go find the MP3 files in your folder structure and drag and drop them from there to the MP3 player.
    Which MP3 player do you have?
    Cheers,
    Patrick
