Windows Vista not recognizing ZEN Mi

I upgraded to Windows Vista 32-bit ultimate, and my ZEN Micro is not recognized. I have let Vista search for drivers online automatically, but it finds no solution. Creative says there is nati've support, so why is my ZEN not recognized?

Update:?I downloaded the XP driver and ran it in XP SP2 compatibility mode. My ZEN now shows up under My Computer, however the device is still not recognized by MediaSource, ZENcast, or the playsure sync manager. I get the error "no device connected" even though it is showing up in My Computer and I can view my files. Any ideas?Message Edited by michaelgazin on 04-8-2007:58 PM

  • Windows Vista not recognizing my new 160GB ipod classic

    I'm having a terrible time getting Windows Vista or itunes to recognize my 160GB ipod classic (ipod software version 1.0.3 PC). I've spent the last two days going through the 5 Rs (4 or 5 times, now)... updated all the USB drivers... reassigned my slave drive letter to make sure there's no conflict... nothing is working.
    The ipod is seen in the Device Manager as an "unknown device", but that's it.
    The "USB Mass Storage Device" and "Apple ipod Controller" are listed under the "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" and all drivers are up to date.
    When I try to update and install the driver for the "unknown device", it automaticly searches windows and the internet, but finds nothing. When I point it towards my C:\Windows\System32 folder (as suggested elsewhere) it locates a driver... but encounters an "unknown error" when installing.
    Absolutely nothing works! I'm not new to itunes, ipods or working with Windows Vista. This is terribly frustrating as I now have a $350 paperweight! Ironiclly, I just sold and sent off my 5g 60GB (WORKING!) ipod, too!
    Ugggggghhhhhhhh!!!
    Please, please, please help!

    Update: (Not that anything is fixed yet)
    Deleting infcache1 (as suggested elsewhere) had no effect... nor did moving around the usbappl.inf files forom the file repository as described here: http://teknobabble.wordpress.com/200...er-a-solution/
    Vista just keeps asking for a driver and when I point it towards one... runs into an error when intalling. The hotfix provided adressing this exact issue (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940199) hasn't worked nad I get an error saying "This update doesn't apply to your system". O Rly!?! Hmmmm... Windows Vista 32... exact same error when mounting my ipod. Sure SOUNDS like it SHOULD!
    Tried this fix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925196/en-us but actually found the CD/DVD upper and lower filters in a different key: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}. Still no joy, though. Starting itunes just gives an error message saying it requires the registry entry to burn CD's and asks that I re-install itunes. Attempts to connect prior to reinstalling (since it still runs) have no effect.
    Tried restarting itues service http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307078 but it just hangs. Reinstalling and restarting has no effect.
    It just kills me that I can see the ipod connected in the Device Manager ("unknown device") and in Computer Management/Storage/Disc Management ("Rmovable Disc 1" with 148 GB).
    So frustrating. This is the first problem I've run into with Vista that has stumped me for more than 24-hours and has really got me feeling stupid.

  • Windows vista not recognizing airport extreme

    So I've set up the AirPort Extreme and have created a wireless network to access the internet from my windows vista pc, mac and other apple products (iPod touch, iPad, etc.) and need a little help:
    1 - I have the ethernet cable connected from the AirPort Extreme to my pc.  I am able to access the internet, but am not able to see the AirPort Extreme on my pc.
    2 - My mac is connected to the AirPort Extreme wirelessly, however, I'm not able to see the AirPort Extreme Utility on the mac.
    3 - I'd like to set up a file-sharing network between my pc and my mac.  What is the best way to do this through the AirPort Extreme?
    4 - I've also purchased Apple TV that I will be hooking up to my television to then be able to play home videos that currently reside on both the pc and the mac.  Any tips in setting this up?
    I'm not the most mac or tech savvy.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    1 - I have the ethernet cable connected from the AirPort Extreme to my pc.  I am able to access the internet, but am not able to see the AirPort Extreme on my pc.
    To access the AirPort Extreme you would need to use AirPort Utility for Windows. For Windows Vista, you need to use version 5.5.3 of this utility.
    2 - My mac is connected to the AirPort Extreme wirelessly, however, I'm not able to see the AirPort Extreme Utility on the mac.
    The AirPort Utility is located in the \Applications\Utilities folder on your Mac.
    3 - I'd like to set up a file-sharing network between my pc and my mac.  What is the best way to do this through the AirPort Extreme?
    Regardless of router manufacturer you would configure both the PC and the Mac for file sharing. For the Mac, check out the following Apple Support article. You may also find this Macworld article helpful. Although it was written for Windows XP, it should work just as well for Vista.
    4 - I've also purchased Apple TV that I will be hooking up to my television to then be able to play home videos that currently reside on both the pc and the mac.  Any tips in setting this up?
    The Apple TV works best when streaming from the Internet. However, it does support some streaming from a local network device. Primarily you would stream from iTunes.
    As far as set up, the Apple TV is relatively simple. Basically just plug it into power and connect it to your TV using an HDMI cable. The Apple TV is a minicomputer with built-in network connectivity (both wired and wireless). You configure the Apple TV through its menu interface that will be displayed on your TV set.

  • Help! Windows Vista not recognizing Nokia C5

    Hi, 
    I just purchased a New Nokia C5-00 5 days back but i am not able to synchronize it with my PC. Everytime I connect my phone with the PC using the provided CA-101D data cable, nothing pops up on the phone screen to select PC Suite or Mass Storage etc.. Neither my PC recognizes the phone.. Not even the usual USB connectivity sound..
    My old Nokia E51 simply works fine as soon as I plug it into the USB..
    I have checked the settings. i.e. Menu>Settings>Connectivity>USB
    USB Connection Mode: PC Suite
    Ask on Connection: Yes
    I even updated the Nokia PC Suite, later uninstalled it and cleaned files using Nokia Cleaner.. Then also installed the Ovi Suite 2.2 but no help.. Again my old E51 works good with both the suites..
    Later on I even restored factory settings too but it is not working either..
    Plz help in this regard.. What can be wrong? I'm using Windows Vista Ultimate..

    can't use e51's data cable as it is dke-2 and connection port is different..
    no, even mass storage is not working.. i got two ca-101d cables, one i got with c5 and one old one of my 5130xm, but none works..

  • HP 5470c Scanjet on Windows 7 not recognized / will not initialize

    Scanner first set up on Windows Xp system. New HP p6710f desktop purchased last year with Windows 7 Home Premium operating system which recognized the scanner on USB and worked flawlessly . Recently rearranged the office which required disconnecting the peripherals, and now the scanner is not recognized .
    The product support area on this website says the scanner is not supported on WIn 7 .  How then did it work previously ?
    And why would HP discontinue support for a product that still has a long useable life ? Is this just a ruse to encourage purchase of new products ? Should the baby be thrown out with the wash water ?
    I am not a computer guru , but suspect a 'driver' is needed to get operational again ?
    Thanks in advance for any help offered .

    The last version of PSE which supported Vista was version 12.
    You'll either have to upgrade your operating system to Windows 7 or Windows 8 or return PSE 13 for a refund.

  • Windows 8.1 not recognizing Zen X-Fi 32Gb

    My Zen X-Fi 32gb was recognized by Windows a few weeks ago on my computer. Now I cannot connect my device. I keep getting an error saying the USB cannot connect as the Device Descriptor Request Failed.
    This on my Windows 8.1 laptop. I've also tried on 3 other computers which I have previously never had an issue - a Windows 7 Pro installation on a desktop, a Windows Vista Premium desktop and another Windows 7 edition. Has there been a windows update lately that killed compatibility with this device?
    Anyone else having trouble connecting their Zen lately?

    Hi ccnicholls,
    The ZEN X-Fi 32GB supports Windows Vista, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition, Windows XP (Service Pack 2) or later.
    The last driver update was in Oct 2008. It is not compatible with Windows 8.1. You may wish to keep one of your systems with the supported operating system so that you can continue to use your player.
    Best regards,

  • 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.
