<SPAN class=postbody>Hi folks,I just got my Zen micro for couple days. Immediately, it seems to have the back button stick all the time (just like you press back button all the time). Everytime I go to the next menu it immediate going back to the main menu, even when it is at the main menu I still hear the clicking sound even I did not touch any thing. I updated to the MTP firmware sine I used Yahoo Music, I did the restore -clean up.Once in a while it behaves normal but not for long the back button seem got sticky again. I wonder if any of you have to deal with this problem and can offer any help. Thanks, HienMessage Edited by neihn on 05-30-2005 06:05 PM

Zen Micro - "BACK" button sensitivity iss
My Micro has functioned flawlessly except for one thing: the "back" button doesn't seem as responsi've to touch as the other "buttons". Sometimes I need to tap it three or four times to get it to function properly. On occasion, I actually have to press the thing down as if it were a button on a remote control. I have seen mention of similar issues from users in other posts, but didn't see a dedicated thread. Anyone else having this sort of thing go on with their player?
I thought I was going nuts when I kept on pressing the back button and nothing was happening. It just started happening to me for the past couple of days (had it about two weeks w/o problems. I've upgraded to the latest firmware, but I also notice that I need to plug in the headphones and wait about 0 seconds and this cures it most of the time. Not sure why, but if it gets worse I'll contact Creative as well.

Ability to see multiple previous pages by dropdown next to Back button seems to have gone
Since the recent update, I seem to have lost the little down arrow next to the Back button to enable me to jump to, say, 4 pages before the current one.
Can I bring it back or has it disappeared for good?
Thank you for any repliesYou're welcome.

Not clear on Zen micro back up proced
I am currently trying to re-install the Creative software for my 8 month old Zen micro after getting new computer and since I have lost my software CD, I will be attempting to do this with downloads from the Nomad site. I am scared that something will go wrong and my player will crash, since I have to connect it to allow software to properly install. I have a lot of music on it and I have thought about trying to back up the files--of course now without Mediasource on the PC, I can't do this. My questions are: has anyone successfully downloaded the software from the Nomad site and had the music already on the player survi've intact? And next, once I get the software back on the PC, is there a way I can back up the files on the player to the PC? (I did read about this on the FAQ, but I was not clear on exactly how this works--i.e. if a track ripped from a CD is already on the player, can I get it back and store on the computer?)
Thanks very much!
pkoeppenThe same thing happened to me and I called the co. and they told me to send it in, (bad hard dri've)not only that the head phone jack was loose so i only got like half the sound, either high's or lows it sucked. I only had it for a month!!

Creative Zen Micro--HOLD button proble
Is anyone with a Zen Micro also having problems with the hold button? Mine only works when the player is on. Once I turn the player off, it automatically turns on again. It's very strange. Then when I'm actually able to push it to hold after it's shutdown it just starts up again and maintains that it's on hold (I can't press any buttons on the touchpad). I've tried to reach Creative CS but it's busy or I wait forever. I've come to the desperate point of taking out my battery every time I finish listening to my player. Otherwise I end up with no battery power because it's in my pocket, playing all day while I'm at work.
Anyway, if anyone has had this problem and can hand over any suggestions, they'd be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
AMessage Edited by ailngale on 0-02-2005 06:0 PMi have also expericend thisproblem with the player turning itslef on even when its on hold, verry annoying as the battery runs down,
But i would not worry about this problem in comparrison to my Zen micro not even woring as the headphone jack is loose.

Having problem with back button on
The bottom left hand button on the Zen Micro won't seem to work correctly unless it is charged into the power adapter. I've tried the clean up mode but that didn't do anything, is there anything else that I can do other than rebooting it because I would hate to have to go through the whole method of inporting my music back on there cause it takes hours. Please give me any advice you have!
~Michellehaving the same problem at www.dealnews.com
not a problem with previous 3.32 version, but now i can't get back to the previous page without pressing the back button twice quickly.
if you press it once, it just reloads the same page.
i've reset safari, but nothing fixes it.
anyone else have an idea?
thanks! -
I just got a new Zen Micro and everything seems fine until I select radio. After this is completely locks up. I had to remove the battery to turn it off. When the battery gets put back in the Zen goes to a Creative Labs screen and you can do nothing. I did the reset by putting the battery in while holding the powerr switch. This let me listen to mp3's I had copied over but then again when radio is selected it is locked up.
Any idea of the problem or does it need to be returned. Less then hr of use on it so far!You could try loading a new firmware onto it, from the Downloads page (such as firmware version ..0). If you're still having problems after that, I suspect there is a hardware problem. It would be best to either have it replaced at the store, or to contact Customer Support and they'll be able to replace it for you.

** NOTE ** This is the message I sent to Creative support. But I would like help from everyone here, too. **
Last night I had been charging my computer, and
shut off my computer with my Creative Zen Micro
still plugged in. At that point, everything that
was on the screen became frozen onto the screen.
I turned in on, then turned it off, and
everything disappeared. I thought it was fine.
But earlier today at school, while listening to
my MP3 player, I went to change the song and
noticed that a bunch of jibberish was being
displayed. At that point, I had proceeded to
turn off/on my MP3 player again.
When the random assortment of letters, numbers,
and lines hadn't ceased to disappear, I
immediately turned off my MP3, took the battery
out, and placed it back in. At which point, I
turned on my MP3 player to discover... nothing
is being displayed on the screen anymore. I took
the battery out again, put it back in, turned it
on, and still nothing.
I am now at home and have backed up everything
that was on my MP3 player. I attempted a
reformat via the troubleshooter, (take battery
out, hold power button on, put battery in,
continue to hold power button, etc...) but
nothing is being displayed. Thus, I cannot
perform a complete reformat, cannot restart, or
do anything with it at all.
The screen remains entirely blank, even if music
is playing. You can press pause and it pauses,
or press the [next song] button and change songs,
but nothing is displayed on the screen.
I had acquired my Creative Zen Micro on Boxing
Day of 2005 (December 26, 2005), and have only
had minor problems such as it freezing
occasionally. I currently have a 2 year warranty
that I purchased along with the MP3 player in
question. Any help would be appreciated.Bump. Sorry, but I would like a response. I have checked other threads about this issue, and to me it sounds like it is a hardware malfunction and I HAVE to send my Zen Micro back to Creative.
Update: My MP3 player has been sitting, off, for about 5 hours. I turned it on and there was a single blue line running across the bottom of the screen. At this point, I began to reset it again. Good news, the screen appeared! I told it to reboot, and now everything is working A-OK. But I DEFINITELY will not turn off my computer without unhooking it first. Biggest mistake I made.Message Edited by Rape_of_Faith on 02-04-2006 0:44 AM -
New Zen Micro 4GB Player. (2 days old)
Was working fine and now suddenly, it's not getting powered on.
Battery had enough power before it became dead.
Looking for some help on this issue.
Thanks
KrishnaThanks.
Your suggestion brought my Zen Micro back to Life. I was really happy but it didn't last long. Because the touchpad seems to evoke no action on the player. I can perform the functions (like playing a song) through the Creative Software suite while being connected to the PC. Once disconnected from the PC, Zen Micro goes dead, though the the battery is adequately charged (for about three hours). Still could not power on using the touch pad power on option.
Awaiting your suggestion.. -

Hey
I'm getting my Zen Micro back from repairs today, after a very long wait, Last I had it i used windows XP, but now I have changed to Kubuntu Linux. Is it possible to mount the Zen into a linux box to transfer music to it in a decent way?Wow such a strong statement for no purpose.
I use linux too and have a zen touch. THESE FORUMS would be EXACTLY where I would ask the broad question: "Can I use Linux with my Creative Labs MP3 player?" I would not necessarily expect a direct answer, but at least redirection. Not a smart-alek answer with commands to delete my file system.
Direct question on topic (mp3 players). ggs -
