Zen Micro Media Explorer Not Detect

I just downloaded the new ZM FW the other day. I just noticed today that my Zen Micro Media Explorer doesn't detect my device. Any ideas?

No, it's not that version as such.
As mentioned you need to go to the download page (Nomadworld.com downloads). Select the Zen Micro. On the resulting list of files the one I mentioned should be listed. This is what you need to download as it has specific MTP support.

  • Zen Micro Media Explorer not working

    Recently I purchased a new PC. winxp. My zen worked just fine on my old PC. I installed my zen and the media explorer. When I launch the Zen Micro Media Explorer everything is grayed out. I cant click on anything. Windows media explorer shows my zen, but the Zen Micro Media Explorer is just all gray. I have FW version .3. I figued I would upgrade the FW and when I try upgading, it says the zen is not plugged in. I need to edit my playlists and I cant get into the media explorer. help!

    I'm having exactly the same problem with my Creative Zen Touch 40 gB - a couple of months ago I had to re-instal windows and manage to re-install MediaSource and all the Audigy and Creative Zen drivers and they all worked together nicely. I've now upgraded the motherboard and processor, re-installed windows and cannot get mediasource to see my device. I've tried intslling the plays-for-sure software suite and it says it can't see my device and to check that the firmware is updated to PFS devices, which it is. I've tried the updated drivers, updated mediasource, uninstalled the device and re-installed it and nothing works. I'm running Windows XP Professional which has been updated with all the critical updates and also runs Media PLayer .
    I know this doesn't help the previous poster, but if anyone else can help, that'd be fab.

  • Zen Micro Media Explorer not sorting alphabetica

    I just had this problem ever since I installed the 2.20.05 firmware. I backed up all my music in a folder, I chose detailed view and usually when I click on those buttons on top that says Artist, Size, Name, etc. They arrange it from A-Z or Z-A. Zen Micro Media Explorer didn't do this for me, I clicked on Arist and everything gets mixed up. Also I have lost my Genre in all of my music during the process of backing up. It made it harder for me to sort my music back together.
    And the weirdest thing is that Creative Mediasource properly sorted my music from A-Z just like how it looks like under Windows Explorer. But under the Zen Micro Media Explorer, it still doesn't display correctly.
    Any reasons why this is happening?

    ^^ I also have the same issue, but only with one of my two microphotos. I first noticed it when I was trying to update my firmware. My first player worked perfectly, the second one always tells me that my player is disconnected (yes i've jiggled the cables and such). It then tells me that my player is not compatible with creative media explorer. Trouble is both players had the same firmware as i bought them at the same time, but one doesn't work while the other does.

  • Zen Micro Media Explorer - Zen Micro not showing

    When I start the Zen Micro Media Explorer, all of the options are blurred out and it says "The device is not connected. Please connect your Zen Micro to the computer." But I have it in my USB port, and all the other programs see it....just not the Zen Micro Media Explorer.
    What is wrong?

    Make sure you have the latest version, called Creative Zen Micro Media Explorer Web Update on the download page, click the link Support > Downloads on this page.

  • Zen micro media explorer error mess

    I can't seem to get zen micro media explorer to acknowledge that my player is docked into my computer. I keep getting a message that says "the device is not connected. Please connect your Zen micro to the computer".
    Has anyone run into this?

    Just to tag along with this thread. I also updated the driver and applications for my Zen. All works fine. The only flaw is after upgrading the MediaSource to 3.30.2 the PC desktop shortcut icon is not automatically created after removing the earlier release one. I gotta manually create it. And there is no need to uninstall any earlier release cuz it seems the installer is smart enuff to detect earlier release and do uninstall before install the latest version.
    I feel some changes in the software but not so critical but I guess I want the latest version to keep up with the times :smileytongue:

  • WHY WON'T CREATIVE ZEN MICRO MEDIA EXPLORER RECOGNIZE MY ZEN MI

    I am wanting to start transfering music over from my laptop to my zen micro.
    I try go into Zen Micro Media Explorer and it says this: The device is not connected. Please connect your zen micro to the computer.
    My zen micro is connected and it says "docked" on the screen.
    When I connect it to my laptop with the usb cable it makes the connection sound and MTP Media screen pops up giving me 2 options: syncronise files to this device using Windows Media Player or to take no action. Shouldn't the micro media explorer option pop up here too?
    How can i solve this?

    No problem
    It's better to direct folks to the link "problems with connecting using MTP firmware" in the FAQ post, which takes them here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net. This has the full set of help that has worked to-date with solving MTP problems.

  • Problem with Zen Micro Media Explor

    I got my Zen Micro the other day, and installed the software, but when i try to load the Zen Micro Media Explorer my computer goes to a blue screen and then restarts. I reinstalled the software but still have the same problem. Please help me!

    Try downloading the latest version to see if that has the same problem.
    Also turn off automatic restart so you can see what file is giving you the error, if there is a file.

  • Zen Micro Media Explorer (P4S) Problems, anyo

    I may have missed a thread on this, but frankly, I'm surprised that no one else is complaining about this problem.
    Since upgrading my firmware to make the Micro Audible-compatible, I find the new version of "Zen Micro Media Explorer" suddenly very deficient!
    Selecting "organize music in device" now offers a VERY limited function. The old interface is gone, replaced with just another (windows) Explorer window with a folder called "Music" in it. You can't sort your player's contents by genre or album, just artist (folders).
    If you open an artist folder, then album folder to get to the tracks, you can't "edit track properties" on more than one track at a time (for instance, if you need to correct the genre on all files for an album or audiobook).
    All these options USED to be available in the old version of "Zen Media Explorer". Now I'm regretting upgrading to the "plays for sure" firmware -- this is probably what's causing the limitations.
    I'd sure be curious to see if anyone else finds this as frustrating as I do... I can't imagine Creative making a software upgrade LESS useful, but it appears they have!
    Thanks,
    Dave

    I completely agree...this new software is a major step back! ... I get the feeling that Creative struck some sort of deal with Microsoft and dumbed down their software in favor of Media Player 0!
    For a while there, I was able to turn all my audio over to Creative's software - I was using it to listen to the music on my PC, organize, burn, transfer to my Zen, and life was great!
    Now that I've "upgraded" to this new firmware, Microsoft's Media Player keeps butting its way onto my screen and draining all the life out of my computer!
    For example, I used to be able to right-click on a song and select send to --> Zen...now all I can do is add the song to my Media Player sync list! Media Play is such a resource hog that i don't even bother... I'd rather just go into Creative's software and use the import wizard.

  • Help .. my Zen Micro Media Explorer (MTP) is in chin

    When i have installed Zen Micro Media Explorer (MTP) . It turned out to be in chinese .. is there anyway to change it to english ? .. the previous version of Zen Micro Media Explorer is in english version .. yet i cant figure out why Zen Micro Media Explorer (MTP) is in chinese .. please reply asap .. thanks !

    draike,
    Most likely you had set the regional & language setting in control panel to be in Chinese and that's why your Media Explorer are installed in Chinese. You should uninstall the Media Explorer and make sure that the regional & language setting in control panel are set to English and then proceed to install the Media Explorer application.

  • Micro media explorer not recognizing zen micro, organizer and Windows does.

    I recently purchased a Micro 6, did all program installs. etc. and could never get it to work properly, exchanged it for another, had all the problems to get it recognized by Windows etc. and through this site, managed to get compatable with zen organizer and windows media player0, but the micro media explorer refuses to see it! I checked the registry and noticed that the two units are registered there (usb), could that be the problem, and if so ,how do I correct it's
    It seems to me that I uninstalled the first unit, that this not clear the registry of it also?
    Thanks in advance.

    I have KINDA the same problem. The Zen Media Explorer doesn't reconize my device and I don't know HOW to make lists etc in the MediaSource Organizer (is there any tutorial f?r it or something? i need lots of help there.. how to make lists and how to get em into the Zen).
    I've had to copy / paste music to my zen manually.. which takes longer than necessary and I can't make fancy lists etc.. Help would be very appreciated :/
    Oh, and I have version 2..02 if that makes any diffrence.
    Thanks.

  • Zen Micro Media Explorer says ' Device not connect

    Brand new Zen. windows2000. Installed software from disc. I have the icon at bottom right but Media Explorer says its not connected. **bleep**!! this is a Christmas present and now we can't even use it!! Ive searched the forums but can't find anyone having this problem on win 2000. anyone? thanks

    FIRMWARE applies to the device.. right? how can I load firmware if the device isn't recognized? Wouldn't my pc have to detect the player in order to write new firmware to it's?!!
    I knew I should have got the Nano. I'll never get this running now in time for Christmas. Thanks alot Creative!! OH and my usb ports are fine.. lots of other devices run fine on them. I've tried both ports. Besides.. the driver shouldn't be outdated should it's I just bought it yesterday. Shouldn't the driver included with the brand new player at least get it running? AAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Zen V Plus - Media Explorer not detecti

    Hi, I'm not sure if this has been posted somewhere along the lines. If it has sorry.
    Anyway, my problem is I have my V plus attached to my PC I have it turned on and it says it's docked.
    But my Media Explorer and other various Media Sync programs won't detect it.
    It shows up in My Computer as a Portable Device but that doesn't really help me that much.
    I can transfer files onto it the old fashioned way of dragging and dropping but i'd really like the convenience of the Media Explorer.
    If anyone could provide me with a solution to this I would be quite greatful.Message Edited by Konis on 04-6-200702:24 PM
