Wired Remote stopped working.. PLEASE HEL

I got the zen a few months ago, with little problems thus far. Last month, my headphones decided to stop working. No big deal, I am very acti've so I figured I was just too rough with them. I bought some new phones, Sony in ear types. Recently, my Wired Remote has stopped working. It will work some days, and then stop working just like that.
I am just wondering if this has happened to anyone else out there.. and if so, how they solved their problem.
Please help, and thanks.

The wired remotes are notoriously badly made - you'll probably need to contact Creative support to get it replaced.

  • Remote stops working when I insert DVD

    Since I got my computer two years ago, every once in a while the remote stops working. I go in to System Preferences and disable the infrared receiver, and it works again. In the last week, the remote has stopped working every time I insert a DVD. Pairing or unpairing the remote makes no difference.

  • Inspire P380 wired remote not working...

    hey guys
    juz recently bought the inspire p380 2.1 speakers from the SITEX PC Fair in singapore.
    btw, im from malaysia and now im having problems with the wired remote
    it has loose connections on the jack connector (the green thingy)...
    and the sound produced in the speakers is kinda... fussy
    the wired remote did work for a couple of weeks b4 this problem appeared...
    so my prob is, its hard for me to claim my warranty and send this back for repair
    coz i bought it in singapore and the staff there told me if i want to send my product for repair, i will have to go back to the main creative HQ in singapore
    or a creative service centre located in another state here in malaysia, which is like 2 hrs dri've away from my place here
    so how am i suppose to claim my warranty?

    I am diagnose the problem, it's due to the new firmware so if Creative read this, can you put the remote control compatibility in new firmware? !!
    how did you diagnose the problem? unless you have 2 identical zen player. one with latest firmware and another with older firmware to actually test it to confirm it's the firmware problem. I'm still incline to believe either your player is faulty or the remote is faulty and the problem is not due to the player firmware.

  • Apple wired keyboard stops working after iTunes sync

    I have an imac running snow leopard.  When I sync old ipad, iphone 3gs or iphone 4, the wired keyboard stops working.  The only solution seems to be to turn the IMac off and turn on again.  Have tried resetting permissions with no success. Any ideas?

    Try resetting the NVRAM

    Try another BK. Maybe a KB problem.
    Try booting to Recovery and see if it works OK. Maybe a software problem with Yosemite

  • Hello Apple members, my iPad Air fell on the ground and camera stopped working, please how can you help me out, this is because the camera is so important especially when I am out for events, thanks

    My iPad fell and the back camera stopped working, please help me out, thanks,

    If it doesn't come back after you restore the iPad, it sounds like you've damaged the hardware, you'll need to take it to Apple or an authorized service center.

  • Why do Apple TV remotes stop working?

    Why did my Apple TV remote stop working?

    Mine isn't working either.  Just changed the battery a couple weeks ago.  It was working fine yesterday, now it won't work at all.  I also tried resetting the Apple TV and pairing the remote (holding down menu and rewind for 6 seconds close to the device).  Anyone?

  • Earphone and remote stopped working.

    I have the earphones that come with the iphone 5s. I've had the phone for a little over a year and I opened the earphones a couple of months ago. They suddenly stopped working. This has happened with every pair of Apple earphones, I've purchased. I have the box. Would I be able to get new ones? The right ear doesn't work and the remote doesn't work either. Please help.

    Hi misty_saha,
    Included Apple accessories carry the same coverage as the device they're included with, so if your iPhone is still covered under its Warranty or AppleCare plan, your headphones would be as well. For more information on coverage and service options if your earphones appear to be faulty, you may find the following page helpful:

  • Toshiba All-in-One DX1210 - remote stopped working

    Hi,
    I have a DX1210 (PQQ09A-02900G), and I have an issue where the remote works fine when I start the machine for about 15-20 mins, then it just stops working.
    There are no errors and can't find anything in the event logs.
    Only way to get it to work again is reboot or put it to sleep and wake it up again.
    Still only lasts another 15 mins or so again.
    Anyone come across this before? Running Win7 64bit.
    Cheers,
    Nathan

    Hi
    Did you check if driver reinstallation/update would fix this issue?
    I think you should check this
    There is an driver called Winbond CIR Driver
    http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/all-in-one/dx1210/pqq09a-02900g/download?os=25
    You should uninstall this firstly and after new reboot, install this package again.

  • SOLVED: W510 Wired Network Stops working

    I had a problem with a W510 I ordered with Windows 7 32 bit. At random times, the exclamation point icon would appear over the network icon in the system tray, and the network adapter would no longer be recognized. I could use the built in Windows facilities to reset the adapter, but it would quickly fail again. The only cure was to restart the machine, which was annoying. Wireless networking was not affected - just the wired Ethernet connection.
    I downloaded the latest drivers from the Lenovo site and that did not fix it. I have had numerous Thinkpads over the past 12 years and have NEVER had any sort of hardware fault before, so I doubted that it was a hardware fault. Therefore I wiped the machine clean and installed 64 Bit Windows 7 instead.
    The first problem I had after installing Win7 x64 was that the internal USB controller was not recognized by Windows. Therefore, USB devices (i.e. my thumb drive with all the x64 Lenovo drivers on) were no longer recognized. Therefore, I burned the x64 drivers to a CD and used that instead.
    All the devices including the USB controller then came to life, and it looks like the problem has been completely solved.
    I post this, in case anybody else has such a problem. 

    I just started seeing this issue with my pen silo.  The Wacom tablet component has completely stopped working, and I'm seeing "USB device not recognized" every time I insert and draw out the pen.  My guess is that all the peripheral components in the tablet are connected to the motherboard via crappy silver trace ribbon cables, and they're susceptible to the tiniest amount of flex, heat, and disruption.
    Since the USB device is, at least in my case, still operating well enough to report that it is having trouble, I'm guessing that the issue is transient, but that doesn't fix my problem - and probably won't fix yours.  I'd recommend getting a refund.
    Here's how to see if the device is reporting a problem:
    1) Wait until you see the "USB device not recognized" message again.
    2) CTRL+X -> Device Manager
    3) Other Devices -> double-click "Unknown device"
    4) Go to "Details" tab
    5) Select "DevNode status" from the drop-down; the Value pane will have DN_HAS_PROBLEM on one of the lines.
    6) Select "Problem code" from the drop-down; the Value pane will likely show "0000002B", or Microsoft USB problem code 43 in decimal.

  • My Refine Edge in Photoshop CS6 has STOPPED WORKING, please help!

    Photoshop CS6
    Windows 8.1
    I have been using refine edge with no problem for months.
    everything worked great!
    I was able to extract out hair and edges very, very, very well...
    but about 2 weeks ago...something changed... the refine edge brush no longer works.
    When I click on Refine Edge... instead of a brush icon, I get the CIRCLE with a SLASH and my system keeps dinging because the tool is just not available.
    I deleted my preferences...but it is still a problem
    NOW... when I adjust the sliders, i don't see a preview of the adjustments...
    Please help!!!!

    no difference.
    i have tried to check and uncheck everything...
    if i adjust the sliders, i get NO Preview... but when i click OK, the resulting photo has been completely ruined by the tool...
    I tried deleting preferences...no change
    the weird thing is that this problem was very sudden.  Just a few weeks ago, I was using refine edge with NO PROBLEM. it is my GO TO tool for extracting people out of pictures...
    but then one day, it just stopped working...
    Do i need to reinstall CS6???

  • Ipod nano 6th gen touch screen stopped working please help

    Everything on the ipod nano 6th gen is working except the touch screen and once it goes to sleep i have to hold the sleep button and the volume down button to turn it back on. I went into the volume -, sleep, volume + menu and went through the tests and in the touch panel error check section it says i have IC error reported: 0xFFFFFFFF. Please help as i have reset and restored and update itunes etc. Do i need to send it in to apple? The touch screen was working at one stage and then i disconected from the computer while it said eject first (this is when the touch screen stopped working) and put the ipod on a different computer. The first computer was windows 7 which i used just to charge it a little and the second one im using is windows vista.

    I have had the same problem and changed three Nano's. Each time the fault is diagnosed by Apple as "water damage".
    If you take your Nano to one of their maintenance centres they will look into either the headphone socket or the power dock and and tell you that you have infringed the warranty by somehow getting the thing wet.
    Basically is a poorly designed piece of kit whereas a simple shuffle is way more robust.
    I have given up with my Nano and am now using an old model

  • IMON Remote stopped working after update?

    Hi,
    I have an IMON_PAD remote which simply worked out of the box since the chassis got setup; it's an Origenae S21T - LCD (Monitor) Touch Screen chassis.
    As my device is the newer model things should just have worked with the kernel driver and no need for Lirc however, after the update to kernel version 3.17.1-1 x64 and reboot things stopped functioning and I can't work out why.
    The output of lsusb is:

    I'm not sure if something is conflicting or if the kernel is thinking that this is the older remote that needs to be used with Lirc but I'm really stuck on how to fix this. I can tell the receiver and remote are working as both sides blink when sending a signal, also I can power up the box using the remote "ON" button.
    Would somebody be able to suggest something or help out in some way? This really should be plug and play as the driver is already in the kernel but obviously it seems to still have issues.....
    Many thanks.

    I know I'm in an ArchLinux-Board ...
    ... but I have on my XUbuntu with Kernel 3.13.0-40 the same problem with my IMON PAD.
    Could this patch help me, too? And - if yes - how can I apply it?
    Quite desperate since about >2 weeks, wife and children already haul me over the coals :-O

  • Apple (wired) keyboard stopped working

    Hi everyone,
    I bought a 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon "Nehalem" processor Mac Pro (model MC560LL/A) in April, 2011.
    1 year and one month later (after the warranty expired, natch), the apple wired keyboard (MB110LL/B) that came with the computer stopped working. No stuck keys or repeating characters, just stopped working altogether.
    I didn't drop the keyboard, or spill anything on it. As a matter of fact, I kept the keyboard clean with a cover. I tried the keyboard in every USB port, no dice. I've rebuilt permissions and zapped the PRAM, still no dice. I'm stuck using the clickety-clackety black keyboard from my G4.
    Has anyone else had this problem?
    Since it's been one month (and 2 weeks) out of warranty, should I still try to get Apple to replace it?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    p.s.- OS 10.6.8

    OK, it looks like Christmas came early.
    I called Apple (and spoke to a WONDERFUL service agent named Hannah), and she agreed to send me a replacement keyboard at no charge, even though the warranty on my non-working keyboard expired 38 days prior.
    I was wanting to replace the wired keyboard that I have with another wired keyboard, because of the numeric pad. Unfortunately, Hannah informed me that Apple no longer sells the wired ones and that I would be getting a wireless keyboard as replacement. Bummer.
    I ended up buying a new wired one, because I really need the numeric pad. I'll have to send the wireless one back. I feel awful that the good will was wasted. At least I left a glowing review for her and suggested that she get a raise!
