Yahoo Music Engine can't recognize Zen Mi

Is there any definiti've guide out there to get the Zen micro working with the Yahoo subscription service? When I plug in my Zen, WinXP recognizes it and asks me what I want to do (i.e. synch, or take no action), but neither the WMP software nor Yahoo music engine recognizes the Zen. I have the 2.0.05 firmware on the Zen, and have installed both of the following:
Windows Media Format 9.5 Runtime update, WindowsMedia-KB8922-x86 package
</LI>
Windows Media Player hotfix WindowsMedia0-KB902344-x86-INTL.exe</LI>
...but still no luck.
The Creative "plays for sure page" (http://ask.americas.creative.com/SRV...e.com,case=793) says to make sure that WMP is version 0.00.00.3802 or later, but it doesn't say how to get that version. Mine is 0.00.00.3646.

Try this:
Open up your registry (Start, run, regedit)
Browse to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum
Right click on this folder
Select Permissions
Click Everyone
Click on the Allow box besides Full Control
Click OK
Restart your pc just to be sure that the settings are saved
Connect your player and hopefully it will work...

    <B>If you see an error indicating your songs may not be licensed for transfer:</B>
    This might be an issue with Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscription music if you are trying to transfer subscription music. Your subscription music licenses are renewed automatically, but in some cases, you may need to manually renew them. This might occur if you have not logged on for several weeks. If you have an up-to-date subscription to Yahoo! Music Unlimited and you see an error message when trying to transfer subscription music to a device, or your songs on the device will not play, try the following:
    Sign in to Yahoo! Music Unlimited. Be sure you're online.
    Download a Yahoo! Music Unlimited subscription song, or play a previously downloaded subscription song from My Music while online.
    Reconnect your portable device. When the name shows up in the left pane, your device should now be updated. </LI>
    This is driving me crazy.
    Following the FAQ advice does not always work.
    )Sometimes you can download the song to YME My Music and xfer directly to the Zen.
    2) Sometimes after the download you can play any downloaded song from YME My Music before the xfer to Zen will work.
    3) Sometimes after the download have to play the just downloaded song from the YME My Music before you can xfer that song to the Zen Micro.
    Can anyone provide insight?
    (Sorry if this is not exactly a Creative Zen issue.)
    Thanks.
    <!-- end answer -->

    It isn't strictly related to our players, but I'm sure there are other people on the board that use the same service, so they might be able to help.
    But it might be a good idea to send a mail to Yahoo aswell, to see what they advise.

  • Yahoo Music Engine and Musicma

    I was just wondering if anybody has had a problem with Musicmatch after installing the beta of the Yahoo Music Engine. I installed the engine yesterday to try it with my Creative Zen Micro and have been having problems Musicmatch ever since. Basically Musicmatch either will not start or will freeze after a period of time. I apologize if this is not an appropriate group for this question. So far I have not been able to find an other group to post this question. Thanks for any help or advice.

    On the contrary. I would stick with just Yahoo. After reading dozens of threads in various forums, Yahoo has had the most success with users getting their players working. Yahoo has also updated their software, which no other subscription service has done as yet. And Yahoo is also the cheapest so far, I'm not sure what MusicMatch is charging tho....
    So far i've only seen problems with Music Match's subscription service.

  • Yahoo Music Engine and Itunes Conflict

    I downloaded the Yahoo Music Engine and subscribed to Yahoo Unlimited. It works great, until I go to run itunes again. Something happens where and artist like "The Cars" will be renamed "Cars, The" when a song is played. It does this just for a song that has been played and itunes then sees it as a new artist. So if I play an album the first song is then switched around and it stops playing, because itunes then sees it as the only song the artist has. The only way I have seen to fix it is to reinstall itunes. I don't want to switch all my artists to the "cars, the" format either. Anyone else have this problem or any suggestions

  • Yahoo Music Unlimited works with my Zen Micro

    I read about Yahoo launching a new music service today that features unlimited subscription downloads like the Napsters service. http://music.yahoo.com/unlimited/
    I wasn't sure if my Micro would work without flashing it with a new firmware, but it does.
    Luckily I let me Napster trial subscription expire a few weeks ago, because I just bought an annual subscription to the yahoo service for $60. I am loading it with more music as we speak. Who needs iTunes? Thank you Creative.

    Wow, thanks for the heads up!
    $5/mo is pretty good, how's the selection? What's the bit-rate?
    Looks like NapsterToGo and RhapsodyToGo better get their pricing in order!
    Competition is a great thing

  • Can you eject ZMP in Yahoo Music Engi

    Hi All
    I just subscribed to Yahoo Unlimited To Go this weekend and am loving it ... loving trying out new artists/genres.
    Anyhow, is there a way to eject my ZMP while in Yahoo Music Engine? That is ... keep the YME running but just eject my ZMP (like iTunes does with the iPod with a nati've eject button in the software)?
    Thanks so much!

    RentMusic wrote:
    There is no "Eject". You can just disconnect the Zen MicroPhoto (presuming you have finished all transfers). I think your idea might not be a bad one. I forwarded your idea on to some folks I know at Yahoo Music to see what they think.
    Hey, that's great ... thanks so much! I think there would be just too many people who would "pull the plug" too soon from the USB port ... I waited until the line was solid but you just never know with these things ... I think an eject button (or a "right click" option) could alleviate a lot of potential problems.

  • Yahoo Music problems with Zen Vis

    After working fine, suddenly I can't transfer Yahoo subscription tracks, I keep getting 'licensing error' - and the fixes from within Yahoo Music don't work. They (Yahoo Music) hasn't been able to figure out what's wrong, so now I'm wondering if it's a problem with my player. Does anybody know any way to tell if it's my player or Yahoo that's causing the problem? Or any other way to fix this? Thanks.

    ok, i found it out, and then it stands that i can take the plugin out, but the music would not show up on the zen micro?!

  • How to change the default search engine? I accidentaly change it from google to yahoo, and I can't get it back. I changed my homepage too, but it isn't solved. Thanks

    dear, there.
    how to change the default search engine? I accidentaly change it from google to yahoo, and I can't get it back. I changed my homepage to google too, but it isn't solved. Thanks

    Clarification:
    I believe now you potentially lose all extensions, plug-ins when you use the new reset function, but you will let me know.
    If that is the case, your find corrupt file method maybe better. However, I reviewed the two help articles and there appear to be more files than just the delete search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder. I am confused. Then I have to find the folders. I think help articles mentioned how to find the profile containing the files, but not sure.

  • I am trying to retrieve music that I had from an iPad to my iTunes account. I'm using the same computer for synching my iPhone.  I'm logged into my iPad account, but can't retrieve music. It only recognizes my iPhone.

    I am trying to retrieve music that I had from an iPad to my iTunes account. I'm using the same computer for synching my iPhone.  I'm logged into my iPad account, but can't retrieve music. It only recognizes my iPhone.  Does anyone know how I can get my music?  I know longer own the iPad so I don't have access to it, but I don't think that should be a problem.

    So you had music on the iPad that is not in iTunes and you no longer have the iPad. Is that what you are saying? If that is what you are saying, iTunes won't "recognize" anything that was on the iPad, that was not purchased from iTunes. If the music was purchased from iTunes, you should probably be able to download it again for free as long as you are using the same Apple ID that you bought it with. Did you try downloading the music again?
    Am I understanding what it is that you want to do? If I am understanding you correctly, you will find this to be useful.

    I admit that I'm a little confused by your remark about being logged into your iPad account. You should be logged into your iTunes account.

    Had this problem for quite a while but found a work-a-round. I click anywhere in the text I want to delete and insert any character. I am then able to block and delete any text I want to. It's been working great.

  • Any Yahoo Music Unlimited users can he

    I've used Napster to go, Rhapsody to go, and now Yahoo Music Unlimited over the past two months. Yahoo is a real winner, the interface is great, everything is fast, and a great music collection.
    But I have one problem - I set up the Yahoo on one machine, it has my 'streamed' (not downloaded) playlists. I set it up on another machine (you can access it on up to 3 computers), log into the same account, and there are no playlists. With Rhapsody, any time you log into your account, of course your playlists are there. Without this feature I am doomed as I try to put together a playlist for a big party.
    Have any Yahoo Unlimited folks tried to access on multiple computers? Is there some kind of playlist file lurking on the original machine we installed on that can be moved over? Thanks.

    I keep setting all my default download locations to a slave dri've but for some reason Yahoo keeps putting them in C:\\Documents and Settings\User_Name\My Documents\My Music
    I checked the Yahoo program and it points to the right folder,so now I am going to change the Windows default location of "My Music" to my "G" Dri've,this can easily be done with the XP Power Toy Tweak UI program that is free from Microsoft or you can change it with Reg Edit.
    As for the service,I had a service from ISP that was partnered with MusicNet(same as Yahoo) and this,the Yahoo program blows all of them away,Rhapsody,Napster 2 Go,Music,MusicMatch,iTunes.
    My old service had a terrible,no they worst ever Acti've X controls ever made,search sucked,no personalized radio,only 28kb wma (Yahoo is 92kb and there is a BIG difference)no transfers to portable device or purchase options and it was $ 7.99 (U.S.) a buck more than Yahoo.
    I am sold...Creative please please firmware now !!!!

  • How can i sync music from mac air to zen creative mp3 player

    how can i sync music from mac air to zen creative mp3 player

    iTunes will only sync with Apple devices.  You may find when you plug in your player it appears on hte desktop as another drive.  You can drag files from iTunes to that drive.  You may need to then place them in a special folder but all this is something for you to research since players differ.  We use a Sansa Clip and a RCA player with our iTunes library and that how we do it.
    Make sure your player can play the format files you have in your collection.  Our slightly older players will not play AAC which is the standard format used by the iTunes Store.  If you find that to be the case you will have to convert formats.

  • Safari Version 6.0.2 (7536.26.17)  Yahoo security - Using Yahoo search engine: while logged into Yahoo my entire screen gets taken over by a full page popup add/i've cleared histories

    Safari Version 6.0.2 (7536.26.17)
    I believe my problems stem from the public side of Yahoo where I go to open my Yahoo Email account, and/or from the file I get in
    email.
    Yahoo security - Using Yahoo search engine: while logged into Yahoo my entire screen gets taken over by a full page popup add/i've cleared histories & cookies & flash cookies but the problem returns, sometimes right away, sometime on the next log on … what to do … . I’ve heard of this problem being called a form of ‘yahoo mail hijacking’.
    Yahoo is better than Google right now. While using Google as a search engine and logged into Yahoo-mail the page elevator (up& down) bar actually freezes, a dead giveaway that something is up. So far nothing I do will stop the page elevator from freezing when I'm using the Google search engine. I either have to use the Yahoo or Bing search engines.
    MacPro w/OS X ver 10.7.5 & Norton Internet Security 5 for Mac ver 12.4 (73) /  I update Norton security at least 3-times a day. I thing I get the bug when I log onto my Yahoo Email and go through my emails. When problems get constant I Reset Safari then run flush to burn flash cookies. What else can I do?
    Yahoo wanted $58-bucks for a consult, that’s ********. You would think Yahoo would want to be advised of ongoing Yahoo Searchengine / Yahoo Email problems, and want to help there users with ongoing problems. Sure they will help me with their problem for $58, and probably even suggest even less than what I am already doing on my own.

    It's hard to tell from your description what is going on, but try this first.
    Quit Safari. If it won't quit in the usual way, select
     ▹ Force Quit...
    from the menu bar, then select Safari from the list and press return.
    Relaunch Safari by holding down the shift  key and clicking its icon in the Dock. That will stop the bad page from reloading automatically. From the menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove all website data
    to get rid of any cookies or other data left by the server. Open your Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.
    Also get rid of the useless Norton crapware, after backing up all data.
    Uninstalling your Norton product for Mac
