ZEN 8GB - Problem with ID3

so i transfered some songs in my zen, but zen reads from tag only title. i want artist - title
because with only title displayed it is very difficult to search

There's nothing wrong with this as a wishlist item, but if you already know the artist of the track you want to find why not search for it via the "Artist" option? Seems like that would resolve the problem. For the "All tracks" list you can also use the "menu" button to "View Details" if you get multiple tracks with the same name.

Creative Zen 8GB Problem with Recognizing Mu

For some reason, whenever I go through the artists menu to select music, when I click on an artist, it shows with no tracks available even though when I go through the (ALL MUSIC TRACKS) option the song shows up. I tried rebuilding the memory and updating album info, but the tracks still aren't appearing. Anyone have any idea why this occurs?

Make sure that all your music tracks has ID3 tags. The player requires the ID3 tags to show up on the player.

Creative ZEN MX problems with charging battery

/Creative ZEN MX problems with charging batteryHi!
I've bought Creative Zen MX player a couple months ago. First thing I noticed when I plug in it into my computer was that battery after 3 hours was not full, what is more computer disconnected with it couple times;/
After weeks or two when I tried to charge it i Went where I bought it and they said after some examination that it really didn't work
They've sent it to the service. I had t wait for the return two months!!! and at the end they said that that tiny usb wire was damaged not mp3.
OK . The battery was fully charged maybe on 5 attempts ;/
There is no problem in my computer because I tried it on several other and it did not work ;/ ?Please, help me
Where is the problem?
?Why this player simply disconnect with my PC?

I was given this as a gift. I charged it for 8hrs when i got it and it showed fully charged. I have been trying to give it a full charge over the last 2 days once on a power adapter plugged into the wall the other through the USB port on my laptop .each for about 8hrs each. Using different cables. I remove the player and it shows full battery (never gives the plug icon though)and within 30 minutes of play music, I get the low battery warning. it was purchased on 0/6/200. nAlso it will not power on while charging.My original ZEN was able to play music when charging this one says DOCKED and will not repond to the power button being presses.

Zen Touch: problem with touch pad and formatt

Hi guys!
I have a Zen Touch 20gb but I'm experiencing big problems with my touch pad: it really doesn't work fine, precision is almost none, to poit the desired voice in any menu I have to work hard. If the menu is longer it is almost impossible to navigate it with precision. I can't move of a single position, it jumps at least two... Is it a common problem or should I take it to be checked up?
2nd problem:
I was trying to format the player's HD. Instructions said press play botton and contemporarly reset hole.
But nothing happens. When I release the system reboots.
Any idea?
Thanx!
Gp

Please be patient with the touch pad. Reading these boards, I think a lot of people are not really understanding how the touch pad works and assuming it's defecti've and returning the Touch. First, set the sensitivity to where it's best for you. If you can't move only one line at a time, you may have it set too sensiti've. Second, use your index finger, not your thumb. Then, practice moving around. For me, it was really easy to move rapidly through the choices or to move just one line at a time. But moving at medium speed always tripped me up, until I figured out the technique of repeatedly stroking the touch pad through the slow zone to move several lines at a time, just like you were using a scroll wheel.

Zen Extra -problem with "add to Play " but

Hi
I have a creative Zen Xtra, bought it just a week ago, and liked it a lot, (Except the size ...)
but i think i am having a problem with it. If I have to create a play list, while I am playing songs how to do it ?
Lets say i am playing song aa from album AA
i click on AA , and the select song aa and click on Play now it starts playing but now i want to add it to playlist , then i click on aa and in the menu that comes up i click on "Add to Play" but as soon as i click on the "black roller while) to select "add to play" I can see the selection on the previous menu (song aa ) moves to next line..
Same thing happens if I have to add Album AA to play list, the cursor on the previous manu shifts one position below,
And the song/alblum is never added to the play list.
Do i have to do it only using PC ?
that sucks ..
let me know

Basically whenever you make a playlist, it includes whatever is in your "selected music". So let's say you want to add an album to an existing playlist. Go into your media library, add your playlist ("Add to play"). Then add the album you want from the media library (also doing the "add to play" option). When you go into the "selected music" section, click in on the scroll wheel and "save as playlist"

Zen Micro - problem with hard d

I have a problem with my zen micro. It does not boot up - I have tried reformatting the disk, but no success. One of the technicians I showed it to sugegsted that the hard disk has gone bad and I need to replace it. Any idea of where I can procure one from? Does creative sell it online?

Same problem here. After about 5 months of dutiful use, the hard dri've failed.
It's a paperweight now and I decided quickly and easily that the money it would take to replace the hard dri've was better spent on a flash-based player. Seeing as my original MuVo is still trucking, I'd say that flash-based players are a better choice if your storage needs are small (< 4GB being small these days).

Zen Touch problems with WMP

Found a way to get round this apparent problem which i have been experiancing for some weeks now.
No matter what way i loaded or connected the touch WMP0 couldnt recognise the player to allow me to sync my library to the player. It used to work ok, but stopped all of a sudden. Of course Mediasource works grand, but i think people's problems actually getting the touch to be recognised in windows and docked at all stems from this problem.
Anyway, plugging the touch in with mediasource loaded will detect and dock the player ok, but any attempt to load and use WMP0 simply crashes everthing.
The process 'CTPdeSrv.exe' runs when the player is plugged in automatically, but this is what is causing a lock up if you use WMP0.
Simply stop the process in task manager and load WMP0. The touch will be recognised, and be ready to sync.
I can't understand why this process is now causing problems with WMP0 as it used to work ok, but this seems a decent way of getting round this problem until new firmware is released.

I use WMP0 quite alot for my uploading. I tried MediaSource, but to find that my Zen Touch came up with 'Playback Error'! I also have a Zen NX as well. They both work fine with WMP0. If you are having trouble, Start WMP0, plug in the Zen Touch, Goto Sync. If it's not there. Goto 'Now Playing', wait a minute, return to 'Sync' and Refresh the screen (F5). This works for me when switching between Players.

Zen Micro Problems with Shutting Do

My current problem with the Zen Micro.. all of a sudden i have difficulty shutting it down. Usually when we turn off the ZM, it will take a couple of seconds to shut down. But since Sunday, i was unable to shut down the ZM successfully. It seems to have hanged at the "shutting down" image and that's about it. the lights are on. the ZM is not shutting down. so i have to take out the battery instead to shut it down. I wonder what's the problem with the ZM? or does anyone have faced or is facing the same problem too?
Previously the problem with the Zen Micro i bought was with the hard disk, which i think alot of early buyers had the same problem. Coz i remember queueing for ages.. at the Creative Service Centre to get the Zen Micro changed for a new one. Apparently the batch that i bought my zen micro was faulty... =((
Hope to get some help!
Thanks!
Ange.

I had exactly the same problem... fixed it by doing the following
Remove the battery, hold the power switch in the on position and re-insert the battery.
The recovery menu should appear, select disk cleanup from this. When thats finished select reboot.
I can't take any credit for this, copied it from someone else in the forum!

Zen Xtra -- Problems with downloading mu

Hi!
i'm having problems with loading audio files into the player
My audio files are on Real Player, and i used the "sniffer" to find them. No problem.
They are in the order that i want them to be in, when i burn a cd (or, in this case, when i load 'em into the player).
I highlited 'em, then clicked the Transport. The problem is that they don't appear on the right-hand side in the same order; they're in reverse or random order!
How can i keep the original order? Also, how can i create a playlist containing the tracks?
Is there any way that i can "re-order" the items?
Thank you, Norm2-22-200509:29 PM

Creative Zen have problems with AAC files

)C I have a Creative Zen 4GB. When i play AAC files (.m4a ripped with iTunes) they are played regularly, but if I switch off the Zen while playing them, when I turn on newly the device it is completely frozen and I must reset it.
Anyone can tell some on this problem? The firmware is the latest.
Thanks.

Exactly the problem that I have with my 8GB-player! The firmware update didn't help. Does anyone have an idea?

Creative zen 4g problems with song/artist ***

hey all--
i'm mostly very happy with my new 4g creative zen, to which I upgraded from my old g zen nano that I love. my only problem is that many, many files i try to transfer to it (i've used both the zen organizer software as well as the windows explorer drag-and-drop method) come up all strange. for instance, songs by artist A will show up in? artist B's folder, with artist B's song names as titles for artist A's songs.
now, granted, i have been ripping music onto my hard dri've for years, and many of the original discs i ripped may have been burned copies. plus, many of the discs may be pre-AAC encoding.
Also, as I said, once the songs are on my Zen, they appear in these weird places and under the wrong names, but when I look at them through the Zen software on my computer, they appear correctly.
so (i may be kind of answering my own question here) is AAC encoding the problem? and if so, is there a conversion tool allowing me to convert the files i already have to AAC?
another thought: if this has to do with IDE-3 tags, what can I do to rename the songs so they will come up correctly?
Thanks for whatever you can do.

IPod Nano 8gb problems with iTunes/iMac

Bought a brand new iPod Nano 8gb last night. I am trying to use it on an iMac G4 1 gigahertz with OSX 10.4. This computer is not online. I downloaded itunes 7.0.1 from a neighbors computer and installed it on my imac and it seems to work fine. I can hook up the Nano to the iMac with no problem. Itunes recognizes the Nano and seems fine UNTIL I click anywhere in the itunes window woth the Nano plugged in, at which point itunes disappears from my screen. I can relaunch it, but the same thing happens again. Itunes works fine without the Nano plugged in, but not with the Nano.
I called Apple Support, and was told I HAVE to be online to use both itunes and the new Nano I am online at work on a PC, but don't have internet access at home. I have no desire to download songs online, or do anything else online at home, I just want to be able to put my own existing CD's on my Nano to listen to away from home.
Any ideas? Do I HAVE to be online to use iTunes 7 and the new Nano?

I guess I'd better clarify this for my own sake. By "update" are you referring to changing music, folders, artists, etc? In which case, I realize that I would need to update my Nano to reflect any changes I make to my music files. If by "update" you are referring to making a software or firmware change through an internet connection, then I would think this would be a rare occurrence that could be done at a friends computer.
The Apple "help" person on the phone said that I couldn't even USE my Nano without being online. Period. That the new Nano and new versions of iTunes REQUIRED an internet connection to function properly.
At the Apple authorized dealer where I bought the Nano, they said there is no need at all to be online, as long as I have the proper versions of everything (OS, iTunes, etc) installed, it should work fine, there is no need for an internet connection. (Unless I want to actually download songs, of course) They have burned a CD for me with the required updates they feel I will need, which I will install later this evening. Hopefully that will work.
It makes no sense to me that I would be REQUIRED to be connected to the internet in order for the Nano to simply be able to playback songs I have stored on my iMac, as I was told by the Apple help person the phone. He made NO effort to help at all, saying repeatedly that as long as I was not "online" with my iMac, the Nano and iTunes would not work, saying "What part of this don't you understand?"
Then he hung up.

Hey everyone!

Try updating your Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) from Microsoft website. The filename name is MDAC_TYP.EXE.
If the difficulty persists, you can uninstall MediaSource via Add/Remove Programs Wizard in Control Panel, delete the MediaSource folder in C:\Program Files\Creative.
After which, download the latest MediaSource for your Jukebox from www.nomadworld.com.
Here is what you will need to do to update your Jukebox:
) Go to www.nomadworld.com and select downloads and drivers.
2) From the next page select "Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra" and your version of Windows
3) On the next page you will need to download three files:
) Creative NOMAD? Jukebox Driver Update version .23.00
2) Creative MediaSource Software Update version 2.03.29
3) NOMAD Jukebox Pack (version .0.8) for Creative MediaSource
4) Install the driver first, after which, connect the player to the computer.
5) After the driver had successfully been installed, install the MediaSource application follow by the Nomad Jukebox Pack.

Zen 8Gb: problems to find all so

Hej all,
I have just recently purchased the Zen 8 Gb and uploaded many songs today. Somehow I am not able to locate them all, seems like some of my folders are not to be played ?!?! They are starting with a number, does any of you experience the same problem ?
I can thus find them in all tracks or create play lists for the folders on my computer and hereby play them, but I wonder why I cannot find the folder itself ?
Thanks.
