Zen micro "all trac

I have heard that the zen micro does not have an all tracks list, and i was wondering if that was true or false? and even if it didnt have an all tracks list cant you just make your own playlist of all the tracks?
thanks

There is an option for an all tracks list on the Zen Micro. In the first menu, select Music Library. On the next screen there is an option called "All Tracks". Once you select that, it'll go into the list, and you can choose to play and it'll create a Now Playing list of all the tracks.

Creative MediaSource won't recognize my Zen Micro all of the sudden!! What is going o

When I first began using my Zen Micro, Creative MediaSource worked fine. I could start my player and it recognized it right away. Then I was told I had to update my firmware and download an update to MediaSource. I did both but shortly thereafter I started having problems! Primarily, when i plug in my Micro a window pops up where I have 3 options, none of which are Creative MediaSource. The window has "MTP Media Player" across the top bar, but i havn't a clue what the "MTP" stands for. The 3 options given are "Sync your music using Napster", "Synchronize media files to this device using Windows Media Player", and "Take no action". I initialy tried "Take no action" and then opened MediaSource only to find it didn't recognize my Micro any more. I then e-mailed Creative for help and got a reply telling me to.............
Thank you for contacting Creative Technical Support.
In regards to your issue, you can try uninstall and reinstall
MEdiaSource with these procedures.
. Click START -> RUN -> type MSCONFIG and click OK.
2. Click SELECTIVE STARTUP and then uncheck LOAD STARTUP GROUP ITEMS.
3. Apply the changes and reboot the computer when prompted.

5. Manually delete the MediaSource folders from the computer system :
C:\PROGRAM FILES\CREATIVE\MEDIASOURCE

C:\PROGRAM FILES\CREATIVE\MEDIA MANAGER
C:\MEDIA\MUSIC
6. Right-click your My Computer icon and click Properties.
7. Click the Hardware tab and then click Device Manager.
8. Remove any listings for Creative NOMAD products in the Device
Manager
(they will most likely be located in the Uni'versal Serial Bus
Controllers category).
9. If you have a category call Other Devices, look for listings in
there
called USB Device. If you have any, remove them.
0. Install MediaSource only from the original installation CD.
NOTE: DO NOT OPEN MEDIASOURCE WHILE PERFORMING THESE PROCEDURES.
Also, you can try reloading the Zen Micro's firmware through recovery
mode.
Move and hold the Power button to the Power On position and re-insert
the battery to the Zen Micro. Hold the Power button until the rescue
mode appears.

Reboot: Reboots the device
Please attempt the options 'Reboot' and 'Clean Up' first. If they do
not
help, you must try 'Reload OS'. To do this, you must have a downloaded

I followed the directions, but 3 of the folders listed in step 5 didn?t exist (only C:\PROGRAM FILES\CREATIVE\MEDIASOURCE did), there were no Creative NOMAD products listed as in step 8, and there was no ?Other Devices? as stated in step 9. I did everything else for all the steps through step 0.
I then re-installed Creative MediaSource from the CD only to find it still didn?t recognize my player! I?ve now done this twice with the same results!
Zen Micro Media Explorer doesn?t even recognize my Micro when it'ss plugged in! It just keeps saying ?The device is not connected. Please connect your Zen Micro to the computer?.
I?m hardly a tech expert, but it seems to me that something on my PC is detecting my player and decieding for itself that the only 2 programs it will let manage my Zen Micro are Napster and Windows Media Player. If this is the case where do I go from here?!?!

LakeTahoeGuy,
Just as SSR mention, if you're using v2.xx.xx (MTP) firmware then you will need to get the correct version of Media Explorer that support this firmware and also install the MTP plugin for MediaSource. Both the software and plugin are available from the site SSR mention.

Will there be any new player software upgrades for the Zen Micro-all those in the know please re

The only thing that I like about the ipod and itunes is the fade out of the current song and the fade in of the new song, which works well in all playing modes.
Thanks
Matt

I'm not 'in the know', but my suspicion is that we are all done for the Zen Micro now. There aren't any bugs left in the firmware, and generally the Micro does all it was supposed to do. The market is moving away from the 5gig(ish) hard dri've players (being replaced by high capacity flash), which means the micro is running to the end of its life.
Thats not really a bad thing, the Micro is stable, and we have some new features (Audible) that we didn't have when purchased. I think that is about all we can hope for....

Zen micro - all tracks go

i've had my zen micro for months now and i've gradually filled the dri've to capacity. this morning when i turned it on it went into the "rebuilding library" screen and when it started up there were no tracks on it! wtf?

It sounds like some form of corruption occurred which made it think all the files on the device were corrupt also. Perhaps you should reformat the player before downloading the files again.

Zen micro dissapearing trac

So randomly when I go into different artists, it shows that I have no tracks from them. Then when I plug it into the computer and check it through explorer it shows I do have tracks from the same artists. I've also found that lets say, if an artists has 4 songs, only 3 will show up on the micro and on the computer 4 will...HELP!
PS maybe this has to do with me draggin and dropping? if so how could i fix it's

An artist should only be listed though if a corresponding track that with artist exists.
It sounds like something has gone CUCKOO with the player, so for starters make sure to run a disk cleanup from <A target=_blank href="http://forums.americas.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=dap&message.id=3">rescue mode[/url], and if that doesn't help perhaps format the player and start over.
Yeah, I know, I was thinking that maybe the artist tag is correct but maybe the album or title tag is missing? I just know I've had things missing on the player music library that I knew were on there, and it was due to tagging issues.

Zen Micro only plays mo

i've recently bought a Zen micro and relised that it only plays music through one ear phone.
is this supposed the be like that, or is there a way to change it.

A SMALL amount? Of the 3 persons i know who have a Zen Micro, all 3 have got the headphone jack problem. I have even had it on my second player (after RMA!). Also look at all the posts on the forum. Cant be a small amount, see?

How to transfer all music in my Zen Micro to either my PC or another mp3 player....help ple

i have a creative micro zen with about 000 handpicked and some very hard to find songs on it...i don't really have trouble with the player itself, just the software and the continous problems seems like everyone is having with something... my question is this..........if i wanted to get another mp3 player as a backup in case this one crashes, then what does everyone think about one of the smaller ipods? what about their software and such? and, if i do decide to get an ipod, then how would i transfer all these 000 mp3 songs onto the new ipod? would there be an issue with the fact that they are not bought from itunes?? would it not be safe to do that? and if it is okay to do that,? how would i transfer the songs back onto my PC, as i have tried everything suggested on this board recently in trying to do that using Mediasource and it just won't work even after downloading all new plugins etc. if someone has an idea about this, please let me know step by step if possible about how i can get these songs that are valuable to me from my zen micro, to my computer, and then onto another mp3 and if ipod (nano for instance) is a wise choice or if there is another player in the same category that others have found they have waaaay less problems with and better support/service with it's?any help anyone gives would be greatly appreciated!? i appreciate all the suggestions to my other questions as well!?thanks,barb

for a new mp3 player, i would get this one, its awesome (and the one i would get if i had a choice instead of my microphoto that broke)... here's a link
http://reviews.cnet.com/Samsung_YP_T9_4GB_black/4505-6499_7-3208083.html the 4gb one is $80, the 2gb one is $30... so thats cheaper than an ipod, and much better features and stuff

Xbox 360 / Zen Micro / DRM'd Subscription Trac

I see all of the posts about the Zen Micro working with the Xbox 360, but does this work in the case of DRM'd tracks - particularly subscription services like Yahoo Music Unlimited?
I don't have an Xbox 360 (yet), but am curious as to if this works. And, if it does, does the Xbox 360 have to be networked as to contact the subscription service itself (to determine legitimacy of playback), or does it get this licensing information directly from the player? The latter way - while it makes sense technically - doesn't seem like it'd be too popular with the subscription services, or particularly the schmucks at the RIAA.
I love my Yahoo Music Unlimited, but this DRM stuff sure creates some headaches.

HEY CREATIVE ! BIG MISTAKE WITH v2 EXPLORER!! PLEASE MAKE IT LIKE HTE OLD ONE WHERE U CAN CHANGE THE ALBUMS/ARTISTS etc WITH OUT ACTALLY GOING INTO INDIVUAL FILES!!!

Where to Buy Zen Micro and get all the goodi

Hi everyone. I have a MuVoN200 and I love it to death, but I am ready to move on to something bigger. I have had no problems with Creative and I would like to get a Zen Micro.
I've been reading on the internet how some people get different things in their box! Some have a belt clip/stand thing and some don't. I would, of course, like to get the most acessories for my money, so where should I buy mine to get all of the acessories?
I'm considering Target since I have a Target card . . . but Walmart is having a sale on them right now. I saw them in Best Buy, but the box was pretty small, not the tall one. Any input would be appreciated!!

I just received my Zen Micro from bhphotovideo.com for $70 with all the extras (charger, stand):
http://tinyurl.com/8qcro
However, it came in a box (rumored to be old, prone to headphone jack problem), not plastic packaging. And the firmware installed was only .0.03. This also makes me feel it might not be the newest model with the rumored fix for the headphone jack problem, even though it's from a high-volume reseller. For me, I'll just pay $40 for the extra warranty to balance my risk. Maybe ask Creative where you can buy a newer, headphone-jack-secure Micro with all the trimmings?

Are ALL Zen Micros DEFECTI

Are all Zen Micros defecti've because I really am considering buying this player over a Rio Carbon / Karma or an iPod Mini or a 52mb/gb Sony flash memory mp3 player (those are nice by the way.) I really am looking forward to having an mp3 player that would just dead on play music, have a good audio quality, and can possibly hold 4/5/6 gigs of memory. It's really annoying when you see all these nice products out in the market (ie, products mentioned above) and they're all defecti've one way or another.
Please, somebody give me their honest opinons, especially the mods from Creative since you do work for the company. I really am looking forward to buying a product of yours.. mainly because of the memory, audio quality, price, and one of the best qualities -- the removable battery. I don't mind much for the voice recorder, removable disk, etc. I really want a long lasting mp3 player with a replaceable battery, good memory and audio quality.
If you think the Zen Micro is not for me, please let me know and recommend something else, please.
Thank you,
Rue.
PS.
I have a few weeks until I do buy one, so do you guys think the Zen Micro's flaws (headphone jack, etc) will be fixed by then? Have anything to say about this Creative Labs?

A small percentage of them have a problem? Just have a look at this forum. Poeple are constantly reporting some problems. Also, I asked in various shops whether they had any complaints about the Micro. Guess what a number of shops admitted that customers would frequently return them as a result of the battery drainage problem and the headphone jack. Do you guys like taking out the battery every time you finish listing?
Stay away from the Micro. It's a pile of rubbish. Also, I don't like iPods and I certainly don't own one. But as it seems, the iPod Mini has far fewer problems than the Micro. Obviously, this doesn't mean that you have to go for an iPod. I myself have managed to find my personal perfect player. It's a real shame as I really like the look of the Zen Micro, but I suppose looks aren't everything. I'd rather have a well-functioning player than one that has blue lights.
The player has only a few problems, but those problems are serious. The battery drains even when the player is off, which means that you either have to put up with the fact that you wake up in the morning only to find your battery completely empty or you take out the battery after listing. Quite a few Micro owners do this, without realising that the wear and tear from the constant taking out of the battery is a serious problem and will later catch up with them. The other problem is the famous eadphone jack. It's not said that your player would develop this problem, but too many players do it. I wouldn't feel comfortable at the prospect of listing to my music through only one channel. Oh the touch pad is faulty with some players as well. And there are a lot other problems with it. At least, you're making the research beforehand unlike me who trusted various reviews by people who owned the player a day and claimed that it was so great. Sure, after only a day this is a valid and trustworthy thig to say. I should have known better.Message Edited by Reef on 05-04-2005 04:44 PM

Zen Micro won't rip all music from

Hey I just bought i creative ZEN micro about a month ago and started ripping a bunch of my CD's to it. Any ways, after awhile i started to notice that some of the songs that were supposed to be on there from that CD were not anywhere on the MP3 player or anything. So i figured i guess it just didn't copy that one song and messed up or something because it ripped all the other songs from the CD. So i go back to try to rip that one song again and it will not rip it no matter what i do.
It happens on CD's every once and a while and i can't find a reason why. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem before and if they got it fixed through a firmware update (I haven't gotten that yet) or if it was a player problem and had to send the whole thing back to creative and get a new one. From what I can tell it seems like it isn't the player, but i don't know. I'm really just clueless on what to do next because if I can't rip all my songs this seems like a waste to me. I just hope it turns out to be an easy fix lol.
If anyone can help me it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
Mike D.

yes that is what i am using. If it makes a difference the one song i'm trying right now that doens't work is the song ocean from the cold cd "a different kind of pain" It acts like its ripping it but when it gets to the end it seems like its done and i check the player but it hasn't been added.

For all those ZEN MICRO fans who cant get their player working on VISTA - THIS WO

Listen guys.... I dont know who knows what on here but I thought I might share my knowledge (not that I have much )
I have a ZEN Micro player that would not work on VISTA
After a number of attempts and advice from people - I finally got it to work...
YOU DONT HAVE TO UPGRADE THE FIRMWARE
I was going to upgrade but the thing is I run XP and vista and I wanted my MP3 player to be used on both and I also heard that once upgraded then you cannot undo...
I explored my CD installation folder and rightclicked (whilst in VISTA) and went to properties
Once in properties I then clicked the Compatibility tab.
Then I clicked the box which states "run in XP compatibility mode"
It took a while then recognised what I wanted then I clicked apply.
Then I double clicked on the setup application and it run as per usual.
This does work!! Thankgod I didnt upgrade firmware
Thanks everyone on here who has helped me too I just thought I'd pay some people back in return :smileytongue:

go through the recovery mode of the Zen Micro. Take the battery out, hold the power button, while holding the power button put the battery back in and then recovery mode should pop up. Look it up in the support section if u still need help after that.
