ZEN MICRO FIRMWARE DOWNLOAD PROBLEM! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!

I've had my 6gb micro for a little over 2 wks..and i wanted to download the free 30 day Napster to go offer that came with my package..and one of the steps before downloading Napster was updating Zen Micro's firmware..well i tried and it downloaded and after it asked me to select my language, i got a message saying: "your player's not connected, please connect your player" and my mp3 was hooked up through the USB..so i tried reconnecting and it still said the same...so at this time i skipped over updating this firmware and downloaded my subscription to Napster anyway...everything was working fine..i was downloading songs in Napster and syncing them with windows media player 0 which i already had on my comp...but about 5 days ago, my syncs began to start failing often...and I'm sure that i need these firmware updates for my mp3 to transfer files successfully but the problem is that my mp3 is not being recognized every time i try to install these firmware updates.... I'm quite stumped at this point.....DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY HELP THEY CAN OFFER ME.. ID GREATLY APPRECIATE IT by the way the firmware version that came with my player and is currently on it is 2.20.05

The firmware version you have is fine for Napster tracks, so you don't need to update. If your transfers are failing, there's something else going on.

  • Zen Micro Music Download Conundrum - Really Frustrated Help Nee

    <SPAN class=posttext>Man am I frustrated - really frustrated. Here is my conundrum:
    I have a Zen Micro. I want to purchase music online. It is a frikin' maze of problem solving. I download from iTunes, they have some sort of proprietary format that my Zen won't play. Okay - no problem. I go to Yahoo music. You have to pay to subscribe and then download. They are wma anyway. Napster is wma as well. Walmart music is wma too. I would try Rhapsody, but I think you have to pay to subscribe and download as well. It just occurred to me - Sony has a music download site as well? I will check them next. I tried converting the Napster wma into an MP3 but I got a message the Creative software cannot convert the file. Arghhhhh.
    So - what is the easy way? Is there a site I can pay and download mp3 music files and transfer them to my Zen Micro? Or is there a freeware converter to convert wma files into mp3 files - that is if the downloaded files do not have a voodoo whammy curse on them that prevents them from being converted.
    Might "Play for Sure" fix this? As far as I can tell this is for subcription services, not for single downloads.
    Thanks for any help.

    I'm no expert, but I think Etomi would work for you. I've been downloading music from them for a while now, and while I haven't had an MP3 player to try and download the music to, I know that at the very least, music I got from Etomi is on my hard dri've, and I can burn CDs with those songs.
    I also know there is some type of way to convert MP3 to WMA and vice versa although I've never done it.
    just google "WMA to MP3" and you should find some sites...

  • Major iMac Problem, please someone help me!!

    Hi everyone, I have a major problem with my iMac G5 and was wondering if anyone was any the wiser about what the problem could be. I’ll explain the problem I’m having the best I can.
    My mac was sent in for repairs last week as it was displaying the symptoms of the Video/Graphics card Extension Repair Programme Apple announced. So I got my computer back after it had been repaired and everything was working fine.
    Last night I was working on it as usual, and it just froze and came up with that greyed out screen where it says ‘You must restart your computer’ in several languages. I did this and then as it restarted, on the grey apple screen a bit of text which said what only I could make out as ‘Darwen Kernal Panic’ and a load of random text in the top left hand corner in black boxes popped up.
    I have since tried to restart and sometimes it reaches the grey apple screen and only gets as far as that without saying I have to restart - or the computer will turn on but the screen will be black, if I leave it at this, the full fans will kick in after one min.
    I have tried taking the extra 1GB memory I have installed and it pretty much does the same, so I don’t think it’s dodgy memory. I have also tried starting up from my installation cd’s but still have no luck as it wont start up from any cd’s. Is there anything I can do? I haven’t had my mac for months properly, as it always seems to be broken!
    Please can someone help!! Thanks very much.

    Mark, its the specific circumstances, with failure occuring so soon after the repair work, that makes me think its worth taking it back ASAP, rather than spending time trying to get it going.
    In your case its quite possibly simply a re-assembly error (a loose connection that has come astray, for example) , or it could be a failed component on the replacement midframe (motherboard).
    As far as your data goes, you could discuss with Apple the possibility of removing your HD and putting it in an external drive enlosure, to see whether you can access the data that way, before sending it in, though I suspect they will want to see the whole computer. (This sort of situation highlifghts the reason why I always suggest that peole buy an external drive for backup purposes at the same time they buy ANY computer - its far more useful than any utility software in a situation like this!)
    Given the symptoms you describe before heading in to the repairers you could try:
    1) a PRAM reset - hold downthe command option p r keys and start up the computer. Keep the keys depressed until the chimes have sounded three times
    2) an SMU reset - on your model you need to press an internal button - see the second dot point of para 9 in http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300908 (with later iMacG5's you simply remove the power cord for ten seconds or more to achieve this)
    3) a "Safe Boot" - see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107393 ((depending on the cause of your problems, this last one may or may not be possible)
    Good luck

  • Toshiba 16gb micro SDHC card problem, please need help!

    Hello,
    I didnt know where to post about this problem, so I just post it here. I bought few months ago Toshiba 16gb micro SD HC card for my android Huawei Acend G300 it worked fine for two months, in computer and in my phone, but yesteday after I listened music my android made restart by itself. I tought it was nothing so I went to sleep. But in the morning I saw that my mobile says that I have no sd card insterted into phone. I made restart to my phone, took battery out and took sd card off and put those back in, but still didnt find my sd card. Then I put my sd card into computer with micro sd card adapter but it cant find my sd card too. it doesnt reconize it. Please does anyone can help me with that? I had important stuff on that card,
    Thank You For Reading
    PS! Sorry for my english I hope you understood what I was saying.

    Greetings,
    I realize it's been quite awhile since your post but, did you ever get a response on how to correct the issue with your 16GB MicroSD HC card that 'died' suddenly?  I ask because I had a similar issue. My card suddenly unmounted itself (it was in a Galaxy S3) then it just was 'gone'.  Phone doesn't see it, pc doesn't see it...
    From what I was able to determine it would appear that this card is history and unrepairable but was curious if you ever had any luck in either recovering data and/or getting the card to be useable again.
    thanks,
    nataswon

  • Zen micro photo download problems with Virgin digital music c

    I'm new to all this and got my first Zen microphoto for fathers day (UK). The player worked fine for about three days.
    Then, when I was downloading about thirty tracks, I got an 'unknown error' message. From that point on the player would not accept any downloads. I re-loaded the firmware as advised by creative but it would only ever accept one track at a time which is useless. I got fed up and returned it to the shop for a replacement.
    I have had the second one for about two weeks and exactly the same thing has happened! Do any of you wise people have some advice before I throw the player or possibly myself out of the window.
    Life is too short to waste this much time.
    thanks in advance
    for the technos, I have WXP and WMP0 which seems to be the perfect configuration?

    If you have WMP 0. Otherwise, make sure that you have MediaSource (although I prefer Zen MicroPhoto Media Explorer, both of these come on the CD that came with your device).

  • Strange problem please someone help!

    My CS3 has been working fine untill today. When I try to import or go to file and open the dialog box briefly appears then it seems like it hides in the background. So I can't do anything but force it to close in task manager. This only happens in cs3 programs. Everything else functions normally. Anyone have any ideas? I tried rebooting, updating, nothing works. Thanks in advance

    How many monitors are you using?
    Does all of application disappear, or only the dialog? Is is still in the taskbar?
    Try pressing Alt + Spacebar, then M, and see if you can move the dialog back onto the screen.
    If it's still in the taskbar, does clicking on the button twice bring it forward?

  • ZEN MICRO PHOTO ACTING STRANGE PLEASE HELP.

    I have had my Zen MicroPhoto for a bout a month now and it is great! I use it quit often. However just yesterday, it began acting strange.... It deleted many of the files that I originally transferred to it and whenever I start it up, it says "rebuilding library" Also it does not display the now playing info for teh current track. it only displays "choose a track from music list" It will play songs and stuff but it just seems strange..... I do not know what to do about it.... Should I reinstall the firmware or what? please someone help me.... I would appreciate any advice on the subject... I freakin' love using my ZenMicro. help me save it. Thank you.

    aaron78: Follow the advice in the section "My Zen is not behaving properly, won't startup, or goes into rescue mode. What should I do?" in the FAQ.
    Snoweagle: Reloading the firmware shouldn't erase the data, although you should ALWAYS keep a backup.

  • HT4623 When I download an app from the App Store, it jus shows "waiting" and doesn't download as it used to do earlier... Then after a day or 2 the app is downloaded... I dunno wuz d problem, can someone help me :(

    When I download an app from the App Store, it jus shows "waiting" and doesn't download as it used to do earlier... Then after a day or 2 the app is downloaded... I dunno wuz d problem, can someone help me

    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

    My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for future reference and for legal purposes.  I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need.  It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

  • Big problem installing... Please someone help :-(

    Ok I started up the bootcamp assistant (with my windows xp disc already in the MacBook) and continued to partition the drive as shown on the video demonstration on the apple website. I believe I gave it 80gb for windows and the rest of the 250gb to the mac. I believe this was about 70gb. Now once the partitioning was done the windows installer automatically came up without me pressing anything. It went through a short installation process on a blue screen and came up with the option to choose a partition.
    This is where I realised there was an issue. There was only one option present for the partitions. This partition was called partition 1 and had around 120gb all of which was available. I thought this didn't look correct so I quit out. A warning came up saying that the installation wasn't complete. Now when I start the mac is goes to a plane black screen. If I start it up holding the alt key it only displays one hard drive named windows.
    I am now very worried all my stuff stored on the mac is is gone. Can someone please explain what I did wrong because I didn't format the drive or anything and so did not delete anything at all on the hard drive. I feel like everything should be there but I can't get into it. Putting in my os install disc didn't help at all. Please someone help!

    I think its that its tried to install it on my initial partition for some reason. But like I said I did not even go far enough to choose a partition. It did some installation stuff on the blue screen without me pressing a single button. The minute it wanted me to pick a partition and then format it I realised there was something wrong and backed out. I have no idea why it is now coming up as windows. My main question really is: is there anyway to get it back to what it was? I would really appreciate any help on this matter as I feel a bit out of my depth
    NOTE: I realise it was ridiculous of me to do it without first backing up all my data, however the video made it look fool-proof and also I only was planning at that point to create the partition first. But as soon as I created the partition the blue screen came up and it started to install. I pressed nothing at all at that point, and it didnt take very long so I couldnt see how it would delete all my data.

  • Zen Micro Firmware 2.20.05 with Audible suppo

    So I was checking out Audible.com to see what devices are listed and I noticed the Zen Micro was there. It was weird because non of the firmwares listed on Creative.com showed Audible Support. So I e-mailed Audible asking what firmware they tested out for the Zen Micro that supports Audible. So they e-mailed me back saying go to this website: <a href='http://www.audible.com/muvo_upgrade.html' target=_blank>www.audible.com/muvo_upgrade.html[/url] (yes it says muvo but that doesn't mean anything). Click on Creative Zen Micro or scroll all the way down. The link they gave was a download from their website as a file named: ZenMicroP4SAudible_2_20_05.zip Now it doesn't take a smart guy to notice that 2_20_05 is the firmware version of the file. And any firmware beginning with 2 is considered the PlaysForSure firmware if going by Creative's convention of firmware numbering.
    Only one problem. I dont have a Zen Micro to try it out. And its not even listed on Creative's support pages as a download.
    I'm curious and I'm sure many others here are as well, does this firmware fix the battery drain issue? Also does it have any new features or does it fix anything else?
    Direct link: <a href='http://download.audible.com/creative/ZenMicroP4SAudible_2_20_05.zip' target=_blank>http://download.audible.com/creative/ZenMicroP4SAudible_2_20_05.zip[/url]

  • [Zen Micro] Firmware upgrade has bloc

    Hi,
    I'm upgrading my Zen Micro firmware from ..0 to 2.2.02 version right now, but it looks like the process has stuck. My processor seems not to be working, the progress bar is no more advancing and the arrows on my player are white. There's a message on the window that says "Rebooting your player. Please wait." But nothing actually happens. What should I do? If I plugged off my player, can I cause it any damage? Should I restart the upgrade? As the 'Close' button is available for clicking, I can assume the process is stoppable and its terminating shouldn't cause damages... can't I?
    Please, help me.
    Thank you for your suggestions.
    haunted

    And no software will acknowledge mine since I stupidly upgrade to the 2 level firmware. I've been on a three-week merry go round with email customer service...they've even had me go into the registry of my computer (yikes!) but no solution.

  • Another question about the Zen Micro Firmware Upgr

    Hi there,
    I have just successfully installed the Creative Zen Micro Firmware .02.05 on my 5GB Zen Micro but I have a question regarding Windows Media Player. The Set up Sync button and some of the properties still appeared greyed out. I thought the upgrade would solve that problem.
    Any thoughts?
