Creative zen memory card iss

Hello??I hope someone can help, i am looking at purchasing a creative zen as i am so pleased with my old zen touch.What i was wondering is when you fit a?memory card to the zen player, does it make the player slow to start up, which is apparantly a problem with the sansa mp3 player which also expandable memory.With music on the memory card, does the music on the memory card join the music in the library of the player, or do you need to select the memory card in a sub menu then search through the music on the memory card.Finally does the music on the memory card show cover art etc if its attached. Thankyou for any assistance

Hi,
"when you fit a memory card to the zen player, does it make the player slow to start up, which is apparantly a problem with the sansa mp3 player which also expandable memory."
As far as I know there isn't any slow down during the start up.
"does the music on the memory card join the music in the library of the player, or do you need to select the memory card in a sub menu then search through the music on the memory card."
just like you already wrote, you need to select the memory card in the sub menu, but there are petition you can sign, so in the future firmware they will integrate it
"does the music on the memory card show cover art etc if its attached."
for this question I honestly don't know the answer, because I don't use cover arts for the music I have
I hope I helped You a little

New Zen trouble adding a memory card (not seen)?

0New Zen trouble adding a memory card (not seen)?8I have a new zen 4gb unit and love it, saw it has a memory card slot so i stuck an 8gb sdhc sandisk 3 extreme memory card in there, figured I could dump more fun stuff in there on it but when i use the zen explorer i don't see that card.
I formatted the sdhc card in fat 32 and named it sd4zen yet when its in the zen and i check my computer I am not seeing the card in the windows menus to drag stuff over onto for the zen nor is it showing in any of the zen media explorer areas.
Do i need to dump stuff onto the memory card externally (thru a card reader first) then insert it and access that thru the memory part of the zen menu, or are the zens not able to read from an sdhc sd card or is 8 gb too big (compatability)?
Thanks for any help on this,
Bill

I am a dork, a few mins messing with it i realized in the main menu of the zen with the card inserted hit removable disk and hook up via usb, now my computer sees the sd4zen dri've and i can dump more fun stuff for zen on there...
Sorry to take up space maybe someone will read this and help them with the same issue i was having or mods if you choose just delete.

ZEN 2B MEMORY CARD QUEST

I have bought a creative Zen 2gb mp3 player a few days ago ( the one with the radio ) and to expand the memory I also bought a 8gb SD card. Now my question is when Iam listening to music from my memory card I cant do anything else , nothing ... Icant surf through other menus , I cant check the other songs to decide what to play next , I cant make EQ settings while the song is playing , ....etc etc etc...just staring at the 'now playing' screen , thats all '.. This seems very odd and very very impracticable to me.? My question is?
; is this the standart procedure of Zen or? is there? something that I am missing ?
Please help me about that . It is important to me because if I cant solve that problem , I will %100 sell my Zen and will buy another mp3 player ...of another brand of course

Wow, a store that won't take back what it sells, even for a store credit's? I know it's of no consolation to you, but in the future, I'd shop elsewhere.

Zen 4GB and memory card

Is it possible to play music from Zen and memory card together? Sometimes when I put music on my memory card ZEN had some problems of reset :S

I am a dork, a few mins messing with it i realized in the main menu of the zen with the card inserted hit removable disk and hook up via usb, now my computer sees the sd4zen dri've and i can dump more fun stuff for zen on there...

Zen SD card lim

Can anyone tell me if the new Zen has a limit on the size of SD (or SDHC) memory card you can put into it's The info around doesn't specify?
32 Gb may not be enough for me... but would probably buy it if the card size was unrestricted.

Thanks for the reply.
Not integrating fully into the OS wouldn't be too much of an issue for me as long as i could put, say a 6 Gb card into it. I know some devices (phones for instance) will not take cards bigger than 2Gb,? was just wondering if this is the same for the new Zen.

Playing music thats on memory card

I have installed a memory card on my MX - I can play the musicthats on the memory card by going to MEMORY_CARD then BROWSE - but the music that is on the memory card doesnt show up on the normal MUSIC menus - any ideas anyone?

That's why I threw away my 32GB Zen and bought a D2+.
Well... there were other reasons for breaking it and throwing it away.... the fact that it was a piece of crap that locked up constantly for one.
You should look into Cowon's players if you want to be happy with your purchase.

Zen SD card integration.

Still not fixed?
Still ignoring customers for how long now?

. I really think there's some sort of hardware problem that prevents it from happening on the Zen. I can't imagine this hasn't been thought of, long and hard.
I have my shortcut button set to go to my bookmarks. Ever notice that when you're navigating the memory card, that button doesn't work? You have to back out to a higher menu first. Somehow, when you're on the card, it's like you're in a different system.
Anyway, that's my guess.

My pc will not show my memory card/removable disk

Hi.
My first MP3 player, I chose Creative Zen 4 gig, I have added an 8 gig sd card the problem I have discovered is that my PC does not list the card as a removable disc as stated in the manual therefore I cannot add files to it.
Some advice pleas.
regards

Hello NewUser2,
Welcome to Creative forums!
You still need to put the device in Removable disk mode. Here's how to do it:
In the main menu, select Memory Card.
Select Removable Disk.
Connect your player to your computer using the supplied USB cable. Your memory card appears as a removable disk under My Computer in Windows Explorer.
Use the drag-and-drop method in Windows Explorer to copy files to and from your memory card.
When you have finished copying files, safely disconnect your player using the Safely Remove Hardware icon on the Taskbar.
Warning!
DO NOT disconnect your player, or attempt to remove the memory card, when files are being transferred. Disconnect the player only when file transfer is complete.
Notes
When you select Removable Disk, you view the contents of your memory card only, not the contents of your player. Playback stops when you select Removable Disk.

Problem with 5300 and 2 GB memory card

Hi,
I just bought 5300 phone and 2 gb micro sd card, sandisk.
And I am now storing music files to the card via usb connection and phone is shown to pc as a disk.
It transfers 990 MB of music and after that is says card is full.
From gallery it shows memory card as 2 gb card, and full status is 990 MB, free fine also. I tried transfer also with music manager same result. Like the 1 gb is the limit somehow.
Is it ?

I also have problems with my new Kingston 2GB micro SD card on Nokia 5300. However quite different. I uploaded appr. 1.5 GB music and it worked fine. Then I switched the phone off. When I tried to switch it on again the screen started to flash and after 15 sec the phone switched off itself. It took for a while till I discovered that the problem somehow relates to the memory card. When it was removed the phone worked fine (no flashing, no switch off). I reformatted the memory card and everything worked fine till the next switch off. Then it started again. I updated the software (V 04.70), but it didn't help. I'm not 100% sure but it seems to me that the problem relates to the music player which tries to update the music library after the switch off and somehow it freezes the phone.
Any idea how to solve this?
In short because I don't have a 5300 - No ...
However - something to try is to see if your card works without problems on a PC (via USB card reader) or laptop (some have memory card slots built in)
Lastly on Nokia's 5300 webpage it states that they only recommend using authorised cards ... it might be worth seeing if you experience the same issue with Nokia's own 2Gb microSD card ?

How can I get Verizon to return my memory card- There screw up

After screaming about 1x a week with this new pre-paid SAMSUNG phone, I finally was able to get the store to take the phone and replace it. Sadly, I was so frustrated with Verizon for my phone never working, and getting the run around, that I was glad to get the "we will get you a new one".
Wasn't happy that they can't just give me a new one off the wall. (that would be 50 bucks please. (phone was 30 days old).
SO, The guy behind the counter advised me, I would get a new one. Took battery, I asked if things were backed up, and he said "yes", the backup synch was set up. "like OK".
So, removed battery and the lid, and the case I bought for it, took my old phone and said wait for new one. (came in today).
I didn't even think of getting my 8GB memory card from the old phone at the time I left the store.
This was 3 days ago (26th of Dec). Today, my new phone came in, it was not synching, not doing the backup right, and then I realized my memory card was not there.
Nicely called the help desk thinking I was calling the store where i returned the phone. NOPE, got tech support in a different state after 14 minutes of listening to switch witch and running around with button pushing. Just to be told "contact the store diectly".
Headed to store, advised of what happened, and the cheerful guy with hte IPAD, typing your name, pretty much said " to bad". It's goneft
No help. Just me trying to stay calm, after the head-aches with this phone. And now I am out an 8GB memory card, that Verizon, in their haste, never took time to remove (but did the battery), and I forgot to remove it myself.
Now, I want Verizon to replace the memory card. Their phone was bad, every week complained about this phone, and in 30 days, I now had to get it replaced.
I take error in not remembering to get it. BUT, figured the techs behind the scenes would have thought of this.
Anyone know of whom I can contact to ask VZN for a new card? I lost some vital pics and info from my realtor, and have to bite that, but this wouldn't have happened, if I could have gotten some satisfactory service, and I still ended up 3 days without a phone.

I admit, I did screw up for not checking. I was just soo steamed with the customer support and going back and forth with phone and offices in Charleston, SC and here in VA, I was just getting frustrated with this phone that i had for 1 week, and couple with the craziness of the hustle trafflc of customers during the holidays.
Just a lot of crazy here, but my new phone is in, I had to get the service center to reset things, as the backup synch wasn't right, and I will get a new card.
I just wanted a new phone that worked, and oversaw the issues. This isn't the first time I had to return a phone, but last time, it was a slower pace, and no issues, and I reminded myself to get the card out.
Got 99% of my contacts. Just wishing there was somehow to track the phone, and have hope, but it was nothing that was life critical.. And cost of new cars is cheap.
Chalk up to "pay attention".... but oh, the frustration of 6 visits to the stores in 32 days I had that phone. Ahh!
Happy New Year, and thanks for the replies....

Not able to Delete the data from Memory card

Hi all,
I have bought a new nokia 3120 classic.it is working fine but recently i have received some data from my friend.
Then suddenly the problem begins like.. when i take a photo.. i am getting error like the image is not in the format and i am not able to save that.And also, the main problem is I am unable to delete the data from my memory card.
Every time after deleting i am getting the same data.
Why this happening..is it because of VIRUS?? If so how to delete the virus from my memory card??
When i contacted the nokia care people in bangalore they are saying that they can offer the service of formatting the memory card??
Except that my Phone is working fine..the problem is with Memory card!!!
Please help me...

you can actually format your memory card first see if you have such option on your phone to format directly from the phone if that is not possible you can always use a card reader and reformat your card using your pc. just understand that all data from that memory card will be lost unless you do a back up of it. if you do a back up and restore the data to the memory card after reformat you might get the same issue so be careful as to what you will decide to do with the data from the card. once you format your card it should all be good unless the card is corrupted itself which can also happen. but first try with the reformat and see if it works out for you.
You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

Memory issues - kernel panics / system freezes with 1Gb Memory Card

I've recently updated my PowerBook OS to 10.4.7 and now more recently 10.4.8.
Prior to this, i had been running a pair of pc2700 memory cards (1x1Gb + 1x 512Mb) bought from crucial technology on 10.3.9 with no problems.
During the upgrade, i experienced complete system lock ups and kernel panics. pulling the 1Gb card resolved the problem.
So i thought it could be duff memory (it happens). I ran hardware checker, both long and short tests, ran memchecker from single user and there was no reported errors although i was still getting crashes.
I returned the memory to crucial and they replaced it and then i went to reinstall memory in the pb.
Once reinstalled, problems re-emerged. Both System profiler and iStat pro show both memory sticks as ok. both are pc2700 DDR.
i tried just the 1 Gb stick in alternate memory slots. with the memory in the lower slot i was getting system freezes, in the top slot i was getting kernel panics.
I've pulled the 1Gb and reverted to 768Mb (512Mb lower (crucial)/ 256MB (apple) upper) and i'm back to normal.
Now what?
As my mac is getting on, i'd like to get as much RAM in it as i can, ideally the 1.5Gb /2Gb which it can support. I'd be suprised if it could be the memory stick being duff (2 duff in a row?), its not a faulty memory slot as system profiler is showing that its full.
Any suggestions? Anything to do with how 10.4.8 handles the memory addressing?
Any help would be appreciated.
PowerBook G4 1Ghz FW800 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I've had that problem, too. I found out that it was one of my memory modules that were broken.
I'd say pop back in your other memory module, then get out your PowerBook DVD and stick it in Restart your PowerBook while holding down the Option Key on your keyboard until some buttons start to show up on your screen.
Select the Hardware Test one, then click the Arrow button. It'll boot into a utility and you can run a hardware test that includes checking your memory.
If any of your memory is bad, it'll show up like "**ERROR ERROR**" and give you a code.
After you've identified the hardware problem (hopefully just the RAM), then you can go to Crucial's website and fill out an RMA request to have the memory replaced. I'm pretty sure Crucial has a life-time warranty on their memory products.
