Zen and 8gb SDHC C

I have a 8gb ZEN with a 8gb SDHC card. I can see the card within the zen if I go to 'Memory Card' within the zen menu. However, I can not see it via windows explorer to drag and drop films/music on it or I can not see a way of how to copy things onto from within the ZEN either?Please help

That's how it works, unfortunately. If you have the latest firmware you can put the player into card reader mode and access the card but not the player with Windows. If you don't put it in that mode you can only access the player with Windows. With earlier firmwares you have to put the data on the card some other way. Barry?

Creative Zen Microphoto 8GB hangs

Hello,
I have seen a lot of posts on the same subject here, but have not seen any resolution yet.
I am sure the story sounds familiar... hangs at "Creative" logo, I go into recovery mode, and run scan disk or format etc... They don't work. I have even left the player on "formatting" overnight until the battery drains and it never finishes, same goes for "Scanning".
I am on my 4th player now and am having the same issue again. This time the player is now out of warranty so I can't return it, and I am not paying money out of my own pocket to get this thing fixed. Please don't tell me this product is defecti've... I don't buy that excuse. And it isn't a corrupt file, because a reformat would fix that.
Once it hangs, my computer won't recognize it, so I can't even try to update the firmware or anything.
Any new updates or information on this issue? It is obviously a well documented problem...just google "Creative zen freezes" and see how any hits you get!
I am pretty disappointed with this player. I should have followed my gut instinct in the first place, and just bought an iPod. I spent a lot of money on this paper weight. Any help,advice,prayers,or donation$ (for a new iPod) would ge greatly appreciated!

Right you will need to download the latest firmware from this site.
Here is a hyperlink to where you can download the firmware:
http://uk.europe.creative.com/suppor...lect=4&x=9&y=2
You might have to put some details in.
Once you have downloaded the latest firmware just start the program up.
Plug in your Zen into the PC and then press the "Reload Firmware" button on your Zen.
You should see your computer screen pick it up.
Then you click on your PC to install firmware.
That should be it.
I hope this hel
ps.
Got any questions you have just post on this space.
I do apologise if this does not make much sence my grammer is not that brilliant.

Did you download the right plugin for MediaSource? What firmware version are you using?
If you're using the v.xx PDE firmware, make sure you have downloaded and installed the following:
. Creative Zen and Jukebox Driver Upgrade version .30.03
2. Creative MediaSource Player/Organizer 3.30.2
3. Creative Zen and NOMAD Jukebox plugin 2.00.20 for Creative MediaSource
4. Creative Zen Micro Media Explorer Web Update
Install , then connect the player to the PC. Then install 2, 3 and 4 (the player must be connected for 2 to verify you have a Creative product).

Does Equium M70 support 4GB or 8GB SDHC card

Could anyone help please?
My laptop reads standard sd cards fine (1gb),
However i want to buy a 4gb or 8gb SDHC card to transfer pictures from my camera onto my laptop and then onto my ipod.
Cant find any info in the manual
Any replies really appreciated
Thanks, Mark

Hi!
The Equium M70 supports only SD cards up to 1GB so SDHC cards will not work.
You can find this information in the user manual. I have checked it and so I know this.
If you dont have the user manual you can download it on the Toshiba website.

ZEN MX 8GB: E-book, RSS options only in Chinese, not English

Just as the title says, on my ZEN MX 8GB, there are menu options for "e-books" and "RSS feed reader" that appear only when the player's language is set to Chinese. My firmware is up to date, so I know that's not the issue.
Placing text or HTML documents or e-books in the "EBOOKS" directory on the dri've allows them to be viewed, but only if the option is accessible, which is only true when the language is Chinese. The RSS feed reader works similarly, and feeds can be synchronised when the player is docked by running the "RSS Feed Synchronizer" application on the dri've.
How I can enable these options when the language is set to my nati've English? Has anyone else encountered this on this or any other player?
Thanks in advance for any help!

On the Main Menu of the player go to Memory Card >Removable Disk & connect the player to the computer It will showup as a removable dri've with a dri've letter. You can then load it as you do a usb thumb drive & can drag & drop files on it. When done use the safely remove hardware to disconnect it.

IMAC won't read sandisk 8gb sdhc from canon hf m-31 hd camcorder

IMAC won't read Sandisk 8GB SDHC card from Canon HF M-31 HD camcorder

Your camcorder is fine with iMovie 09. My suggestions are two;
1)Canons sometimes take a little bit of effort to connect. Try disconnecting and then reconnecting your camcorder. Try shutting down iMovie and then turning it back on. I have a Canon hf100 usb camera also and love it. I just put up with the odd frustration of it sometimes not recognizing the connection.
2) Click on the camera icon in the main iMovie interface (middle, extreme left). See if your camera is "seen" my iMovie. If not, try disconnecting and reconnecting the camcorder.

Zene MicroPhoto 8GB - FM Radio Feez

My Zen MicroPhoto 8GB work ok except for the FM Radio feature. Anytime I try to scan stations, whether automatically or manually, the unit will freeze and I have to remove the battery to reset it. I have already tried the Clean Up, Format All, Reload Firmware, & Reboot options in that order and nothing has worked. The FM radio still freezes the unit when I try to scan through stations. Any help regarding this problem is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.

I have a 8gb zen microphoto and the same thing happened to me. The first time I tried to use the radio and find a station it froze up on me. I removed the battery and that seemed to solve it. I have not tried since. I do not use the radio much but would like to be able if I wanted too. Thanks so much for these forums. I am a idjit when dealing with computers and electonics and have learned just from reading the message threads.

After some advice, I am new to Apple and looking to purchase either the MacBook Air 13inch with 256GB and 8GB mem or the MacBook Pro 13inch with retina 256Gb and 8GB mem. I am an assistant principal in a primary school and also studying my masters

After some advice, I am new to Apple and looking to purchase either the MacBook Air 13inch with 256GB and 8GB mem or the MacBook Pro 13inch with retina 256Gb and 8GB mem. I am an assistant principal in a primary school and also studying my masters at university. I don't play computer games and I don't watch movies. I do store photos and videos of my kids and music on iTunes. I also like browsing the net with numerous windows open, check email etc. I am really wanting long battery life as I do a lot of my work on the couch - not close to a PowerPoint. Would the air do the trick or will it soon be outdated as Apple move towards retina display? Both air and pro seem very thin - almost the same? And not much difference in weight either so both very portable which is also a necessary requirement. Just can't help dreaming about that 12 hour claimed battery life. Any helpful advice/opinions, very much appreciated. Thanks

It's not likely that you'll get 12 hours in reql life. Those benchmarks are set under very strict controlled conditions. Kind of like mileage per gallon claims on cars. If 16GB of ram is an option at all I'd highly recommend you get that. As far as storage 256GB isn't alot, consider storing some things on an external thunderbolt real

I have a macbook pro 15" Retina Display with 2.6 ghz and 8gb of ram yet when i try to download a HD movie from itunes it says my computer doesn't support HD?

i have a macbook pro 15" retina Display with 2.6 ghz and 8gb of ram when i try to download an HD movie from itunes it says my computer doesn't support HD? i went to the support on the apple website and looked at the specs that a computer has to meet in order to play HD movies and mine is well above them. Why can't i play the movies?

That would at least partially explain it.
These MacBook Pros drew more power than the power brick could readily supply, and so would only run at top speed when the power brick was supplemented by the battery.
Though the applicable tech note has been removed, it stated:
"If the battery is removed from a MacBook or MacBook Pro, the computer will automatically reduce the processor speed. This prevents the computer from shutting down if it demands more power than the A/C adapter alone can provide."

Is battery life a factor in your decision? If so, knowing that may help someone else give you some more input.

ZEN 4 GB + SDHC APACER 16 GB (needed to be inserted when the ZEN is turned on)

Hi there,
after using the Cowon D2 i am quite shocked with the ZEN player, but have to solve some issues....
Some cannot be solves, like the copying via internal and external memory, "expension" of SD without player funcionality, some other bugs
The?Cowon D2 have not such a bugs, but this is not an advertisement. I bought the player for my friend, and I am sorry that I havent bought her the same player....
anyway...
I have this problem...
The card works well when copying, playing from browse "thing". But when I turn off the ZEN and turn it on and select Memory it behaves like there is no card... when I reinsert the card while the ZEN is turned on, it will access the card until i will turn that thing off again... quite irrating
I havent formatted the card, as it works with the Cowon D2 without any issues (which has the integration of slot in player's library)
I will format the card and when it is solved I will let you know...
The strange thing is... Sometimes the Card works on even after turning off, and turning on the ZEN.... but this "certainty" happens once in 5 times...
Thanks in advice

If your player fails to restart after the firmware upgrade:
1. Turn off your player.
2. Disconnect your player from your computer.
3. Press and hold the Play/Pause button. Continue to hold the button while you perform steps 4 and 5. If you accidentally release the button, start the procedure again.
4. Gently push a straightened paper clip into the Reset hole.
5. Slide the On/Off switch towards the USB port and hold until the display lights up. The Recovery Mode
screen appears with four options: Clean Up, Format All, Reload Firmware, and Reboot.
6. Select Reload Firmware, followed by Yes.
7. Connect your player to your computer.
8. Double-click the downloaded file and follow the instructions on the screen.
try follow the instruction. you need to press the button the plug in the reset button for a while. then you try on the player

A fast automatic tag fixer for owners of Zen and other tag based players

Fast automatic tag fixer for owners of Zen and other tag based players.
I've written a simple freeware utility for fixing mp3 tag discrepancies. It is intended for use before uploading a bunch of albums to a tag-only media player. There's like a million of such programs out there, but this one is based on my exprience with the Creative Zen player, so it could be useful for fellow owners of the device.
First, the utility scans mp3 album folder tree looking for tag inconsistencies and suggesting corrections. After that you can review (and cancel/modify if needed) the corrections and apply the changes.
The detected tag errors can be corrected either manually or semi-automatically with the integrated Discogs search. There's a tuneable compilation processing feature, which helps keep compilation albums in one piece on your player.
You can check the utility out here http://taghycardia.narod.ru/english.html
Feature suggestions, bug reports welcomed.

The free program has been vastly updated since the last post.
Now, it can find and embed cover art for mp3 albums automatically, or it can do the opposite, remove cover images from mp3 files if you need to save space on your player or mobile device. In addition, there is an ability to correct wrong track order automatically and get exact tracklists from Discogs.
The URL is updated, too: http://taghycardia.info

Should I install "Creative Zen and NOMAD Jukebox plugin 2.00.20 for Creative MediaSourc

I have the Play For Sure firmware on my Zen Touch, now I'm going to first install the driver on my computer, then install the creative media source, then the play for sure software suite, and then the media source CD plugin. Should I also install the Zen & Nomad Jukebox plugin afterward or that's only for ppl who haven't upgraded the firmware?
Thanks!

The "Creative Zen and NOMAD Jukebox plugin 2.00.20 for Creative MediaSource" is for those who have the non-PlaysForSure firmware. So, you do not need to install it.

Zen microphoto 8gb.. im shock

Hi guys!
Well i hope u can help me cause im really desperate :/
Today i connected my Zen microphoto to my car's stereo and it suddenly rebooted... i said "what the hell", but i kept listening. Some time later i reconnected the player to the stereo, again rebooted (it doesnt happen always) but this time it restarted in recovery mode. Gave me 4 options:
CLean up -- Cleans but does nothing
FOrmat ALL --Havents tried it yet (wouldnt like to try it)
Reload Firmware
Reboot --Reboots player and enters into recovery mode/menu again
So reloading firmware makes a little window appear saying "firmware is being erased" and then it just frezes. One time it finished but nothing happened, just returned to recovery menu.
I tried reloading firmware via usb but the process fails at the very end. I dont know what to do.
I read in another post something about waiting for the battery to be depleted. Im gonna try that now.
Meanwhile i would apreciate your opinions. Thnx!
Oh by the way my pc does recognize my Zen and all.Message Edited by kaji_to on 2-8-2005 08:25 AM

This happened to me the 2nd week I had mine, so I went to Best buy, almost got an iPod.... but got a new ZMP, and I am glad I did.
