Zen 20GB (like the micro) Firmw

Hi,
I have a 20gb ZEN (the one like the micro) with version .00.02firmware and was looking for the upgrade but the product isn't listed - the upgrade specifically says the for your , 4, 5 or 6GB Creative Zen Micro player.
HELP - WHERE IS THE UPGRADE :-(((((
TIA
Paul

It's only available in certain regions, so you'll only find the available downloads depending on what country you choose (ie, a quick check showed it's not listed in the US, but it is in Singapore). If there was a problem with your current player and you needed to reload the firmware, I think you'll have to contact Support if you can't find it on the downloads page. As far as I know, there aren't any firmware upgrades for this player.

FYI - the Zen 20gb is like a Micro on steroids. It's got the same design features and layout, but bigger.

  • Not sure i like the micro ph

    hello...first post. I just bought the micro photo on ebay. Looks cool, much heavier than my previous, but my first impression isn't great. I had the IAUDIO U2 and loved it! It was lost and while looking on ebay I got a deal for 00 bucks for the micro and thought the 8gb would be good. I wanted to try putting my songs on without coverting to mp3 to see if the sound was better. I downloaded my songs from cd converting to mp3 320. The iaudio has awsome sound! I don't care about bringing 4000 songs with me. gb was fine. I had 0-5 cd's of different variety and every few days would change them around. (with ease) I thought I could download the same amount of songs, leaving them in wav format, with the 8 gigs. First thing out I see no line in, and no thing to attach a neck strap? I don't always have a pocket. I was forced to get a case, which makes it bulkier (hate that) I bought the belkin sports case (pricy) and the plastic front makes it nearly impossible to take in and out. The player sticks to it, and the screen looks like crap. This is all before hearing the player, which is my main priority. My computer crashed and I'm waiting for my new one, so I can't put the software on yet. I listened to the preinstalled songs and it sounds alright I guess.... I need to hear my music to know for sure. I have, in my opinion, the best headphones....and I tried many! (future sonics em3) So... I'm feeling right now like I might sell on ebay and buy the Iaudio again....any thoughts?
    Thanks......Dale

    There is a spot for a neck strap. If you look on the very bottom of the player, there are 2 tiny holes for a neck strap.

  • NEED CREATIVE TO GIVE DRIVERLESS SUPPORT TO CREATIVE ZEN TOUCH IN THE NEXT FIRMW

    I had bought Zen Touch 20 Gb and found that the driver is not recognized by PC. Whenever i want to transfer the data, I need to install driver and software in the PC to do so. That's really make me sick!
    Here i would like Creative to update their next firmware for Zen Touch so that it can support driverless. Just like a normal external hard disk function.

    Check the boards, there is a petition for this already. Add your voice and cross your fingers.

  • Creative Zen (20GB) WHERE IS IT?

    I don't want the Zen Micro, or the Zen Touch, or any other Zen except for the "original" Creative Zen. That's it, a simple Zen... The one that looks like the micro, but has 20GB of storage space! It's advertised on your site, but I have no idea where to get it... I've been to stores and checked the site, but it's unavailable. Maybe it's just out in another country. Is it even available in North America? If not, will it be out anytime soon?
    HELP ME FIND IT!

    I guess it is only in Asia. Other electronics makers also tend to release models first in Asia then perhaps later they release them in the US, or perhaps some are never released in the US. I guess Asians tend to be more willing to pay high prices for the latest and the greatest than people in North America or Europe, so if there is a very limited supply of something, it might only be available in Asia.

  • Zen 20gb korean illiterat

    Hi Guys
    My new Zen 20gb mp3 (that micro lookalike player) fail to transfer audio files having korean, japanese and chinese fonts as their title file name.
    Is there any way, any way at all, to make the player read Korean, Japanese and Chinese? or do i have to romanize them all, one by one? :smileysurprised:
    Thanks in advance.
    os: window xp

    SSR, so sweet of you to teach my Zen 20gb to read, thanks a bunch~
    GlenZen,you're quite right, works for others as well. My dear Zen now reads Chinese, Japanese as well as Korean. Just have to click some extra buttons other than Chinese though.
    Thank you for popping in, guys. Have a nice day! :smileyvery-happy:

  • Is zen micro meant to work with radio transmitters like the iTr

    just wondering if the zen is meant to work with uni'versal radio transmitters like the iTrip or the belkin unit... i can't seem to find an accessory offered by Creative that does the same thing... please help

    thanks for the replies =)
    the reason i asked was because i used the tunecast with a cheapo no-brand mp3 player and it worked perfectly, but when i tried it out with my creative zen micro it wouldn't work... a new pair of AAA batteries fixed the problem though =) the old ones were still lighting up the little LED, but not powering the unit enough to transmit to the stereo...

  • Can MP3s from the zen micro be played using an FM tuner like the ipod

    where can we get an accessory like the ipod's wherein we can play music from the zen micro on a car stereo/home stereo using an FM tuner wherein the micro itself will work like a remote control? thanks a lot.

    Anywhere. Belkin makes the Tunecast FM tuner -- just make sure to get the TunecastII with the LCD selector.

  • Won't reformatting the Creative Zen Micro constantly kill it? Especially with the beta firmwa

    I have just been the victim of "sudden audio player death syndrome" my iri'ver h0 bit the dust two weeks after I bought it... I have the same fears about my creative zen micro, as I fear that these micro dri'ves are less durable than full size hard disks and more succeptible to failure. I really was scared to format it once. And I asked the question earlier... but I would like some more replies, do you have to reformat the dri've every month to renew subscription tracks on napster to go... does anybody have experience with the service and the player, maybe for a couple of months that could tell me?

    I have the Micro as well as the Seagate Pocket Dri've, a standalone version of the S dri've that's in the Micro. I've owned the latter for about fi've months now. Both of them take a fair share of abuse: the Seagate dri've travels in my backpack or pocket every day to and from work. The Micro is strapped on my arm fi've times a week as I do my daily jog. Both have yet to show any signs of damage. I also reformatted my Micro dri've about 0-2 times when I first got it (I had problems that I thought were caused by the firmware but, as it turns out, were caused by my USB card).

  • Im confused about the zen micro firmw

    First they say that they are releasing a new firmware which will reduce the sleep time of the micro from 24 to 4 hours... and now they are saying that they are retracting that release and redoing it... what's the deal with creative... it took a few months for them to release this firmware to begin with... and now they are saying that it doesn't work... and from the posts that I saw under the thread dedicated to the firmware... the thing doesn't even work... what's up with that... I just really want an educated answer that says something about the direction in which the firmware is going for creative... Beyond that... I read on the CNET website that the zen neeon is slated for asian only release... and on top of that they have released a new pmp called the vision I believe... what the hell is going on with creative's marketing department?

    ok, the firmware is still available from the creative website. it has been removed (or was, it might be back) removed from nomadworld.com
    for thoes it works for it works well but there have been a lot of problems with it. it does go into deep sleep after 4 hours but some are saying that it uses up even more battery than before. they are testing it like lots of ppl here are to try and find reasons and if they find a problem they will probably redo it.they may be redoing it anyway.
    The neon was only released in asia because there are so many players in europe and america that they didnt feel it was needed. many people complain that there are too many players and that creative cant offer good enough support for the players it already has out.
    i dont know about a new pmp

  • Zen 20gb - firmwa

    Hiya
    I have hunted high and low for a solution to this, so i'm going to have a final stab by registering here and asking....
    I have a Zen 20gb, it's not a touch, a micro or anything like that, just a Zen 20gb, I think they might have been limited to Europe and Asia, not sure.
    The Firmware on board is .00.02
    I need to get this working with Vista. I cannot find a firmware, I did try the Zen firmware but it couldnt find the player, then I found further down in the archi'ved section the page for the Zen 20gb, it said my player was not supported anymore, which I was amazed about as it is not that old.
    So is there a work around for this, or am stuck with fireing up XP everytime I want to add music to it's By workaround I mean firmwares for other models that might work. Am pretty p***ed off with Creative for giving up so early on this player by the way, it was a few hundred pounds when I got it a few years ago!!
    Thanks for reading and for any ideas you can offer : )

    I believe they were using Asia mainly Singapore as the test bed for that harddisk based mp3 player but it did not sit well with the customers here. I bought it because I needed the disk space at a close-out sale. I believe that particular model was a total flop and those of my friends and family who saw it thinks it was the ugliest thing around. They have not sold the unit for quite many years now. It was based on a different format and providing a driver for it make be too time consuming and expensi've and probably just support a handful of users who still uses it.
    You pretty much cannot use that one failed model to guage what Creative is doing to support the other popular mp3 players.

  • Not able to Remove the ZEN 20GB Safely from compu

    Hi All
    When i connect my Zen 20Gb to my comp win xp sp2, it gets detected and i am able to get a new icon under removable dri've and am able to save data's in the Zen's dri've but when i want to disconnect it from the comp, i right click on the usb icon on system tray and click on safely remove the device, i select usb mass storage ZEN ( F: ) and click on stop, now it comes with an error msg that some application is still in use, i am sure i have closed all application and none are running, it happened y'dsday also, and i get the icon on the zen which says do not disconnect, finally i have to shut down the pc to remove the device why so, what could be the reason

    It's important to shut down every program at least. There are tasks like Explorer though that shouldn't be shutdown ideally, and of course Explorer is one of those programs that might well have its hooks into the player. Again though, as long as you're not actually using it then you can most likely disconnect safely.
    If the worst comes to the worst then just shut down the PC. You know it's not using it then!

  • Creative Zen 20gb (not sleek or anyother type like that) problems with subscription downlo

    Does anyone know whether the Zen 20gb can play subscription downloads?I have been trying, and the micro version is almost identical and can do it, i don't know why my player cannot do it.

    my zen sleek isn't on the playsforsure list yet it says it on the creative website, but if you download all the tracks into a folder and set windows media player to update the library on that folder, and sync it it should work because mine wasn't working at first on the napster program.
    i am probably wrong as for it being able to work because your talking about the zen 20gb but mine wasnt on the napster website ( or whatever you use )

  • Upgrading Zen Micro Firmwa

    if I upgrade the Zen Micro to the NEWEST available firmware...will I still be able to use Zen Micro Media Explorer? I love the program..
    the new firmware uses WMP, am I right? anyone use WMP as the main software for putting songs on your player, etc. Is it better?

    There is a latest MTP firmware and a latest non-MTP firmware. Note that for MTP firmware, if you view the tracks in your Zen Micro on the PC, you will see that the track organization is by folders, just like the way files are organized in your PC. For non-MTP firmware, you will see that the track organization is by library.
    There is also a MTP version of the latest Zen Micro Media Explorer and a MTP version oif the latest Creative MediaSource for download.

  • Why does the micro zen break for any little thi

    I hate that the micro zen break if u drop it on a soft suface. I dropped my micro zen on my futon and the zen didn't want to work anymore. Can anyone tell why this machine is so bad? And if you know how to fix it, please tell me.

    Hold on a second people. Every manufacturer builds their products with some amount of durability in mind. Being able to take a short drop IS a part of that. Surly its not meant to be dropped, but manufacturers know we dont li've in a perfect world, so they take a little of that into account when building their products. Some of you guys act as if its EXPECTED to stop functioning after a small drop, and on a cusion at that.
    By the way, i see your problem as a freak accident or something.
