Zen micro music downlo

Is this player compatible with any of the pay music download sites? I can't find anything that has a driver so i can drag and drop music on to the player.

I signed up for Napster and downloaded my first song. I noticed that it did not recognize my portable device and the error message was that it was not plugged in. It was definitely plugged in and working. I loaded 800 songs from my personal library earlier. I looked at the supported players list and noticed that the zen micro was not on the list. I tried MSN and several others as well. All the same thing. I was just wondering if someone has signed up for a pay - per - download site that has worked with the zen micro. I realize that this is a new product so it may take some time.

  • 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...

  • Zen Micro - music won't trans

    I have 355 songs on my Zen Micro and it says I have 55 MB space. I deleted about 0 songs and the free space didn't change at all... I think there's something wrong. ?
    When I try to transfer music to my Zen Micro in Creative Media Source it doesn't work, it rips the song from the CD but when it comes to Writing it it just says Error: Unable to create file.
    I looked through old topics and couldn't find this problem. Help!!
    thanks a lot,

    Did you try to delete the song with the Micro itself? You probably just deleted it from the Now Playing playlist, not from the unit itself. You have to navigate directly to the song (By going Artist->Album->Song) first and then select delete to truly erase the file.
    I find that the best and easiest way to manage the music on my Micro is through the desktop software (Creative Media Explorer, WMP, or Notmad). The Micro's user interface is great for all types of playback, but blows for things like tag editing, playlist creation, or file maintinence.

  • MP3 Zen Micro Music Purchasing Progr

    I'm thinking of buying the Zen Micro but I don't know where i can buy songs that are supported by the Micro. Where does everyone get their songs?

    I would recommend the Napster-To-Go service. I can't even imagine paying $.99 cents per song, and never have. For a flat $5 a month, you can download a mountain of good music, and stuff your new Zen Micro to the gills. I loaded a gigabyte of music into mine just this afternoon, sure would not have happened at 99 cents a pop.
    I wish I could have turned Rhapsody into Napster-to-Go - I much prefer it, but they are still on the insane 99 cents a track plan if you want to take the music on a portable device (as the monthly fee is $0). What I love about Rhapsody is the great depth of genres to choose from. When I saw the Napster genre list I almost fell over it was so simplistic. It can also be a pain if the music you want to smack on your Zen is in Napster as a "buy" for 99 cents, but I can li've with that.
    Since my son and I would fight over one music account anyway, we've decided to keep one Rhapsody account, and one Napster, and we're pretty well covered, still prefer Rhapsody on the home computers. I can open both at once, and go through the Rhapsody lists I spent eons building to help pick out the music for Napster lists to put on the Zen.
    I have just one warning for you if you are a new Zen Micro owner - never under any circumstances hit the "Reload Firmware" command. I, and many others on this board, ended up with a pretty paperweight. Luckily I killed it in the first 30 days from Amazon, I sent an email that mine was defecti've, and received a replacement less than 48 hours later - have 30 days to return the broken one.

  • Zen Micro Music Library Info Era

    I got a 4GB Zen Micro for Christmas two years ago, and it worked great until it fell victim to the fatal headphone jack problem. I sent it in to Creative, and got a brand new 6GB player. I was ecstatic until I found out the new player wansn't recognized in the Creative Media Software. After a lot of e-mail correspondence with the Creative Support Team that ended with no helpful advice, I decided to see if my player was recognized in Windows Media Player. Sure enough, it did! I was so excited to download my music and use my mp3 player again. That was a few months ago, and it's worked very well. Until tonight. I was trying to dowload more music onto the player, hit copy to device, and the song started copying. It reached 99%, then the player said "There are no items on the CD or device." I checked the player, and sure enough, my Zen's screen read "Select music to PLAY from the music library." When I go to All Tracks in the Music Library, nothing is listed. But when I go to Now Playing, it says it is playing 72 of 00 songs. I plugged in the headphones and can hear music, so that's one good thing. But I can't tell what track is being played. In addition, my Windows Media Player won't recognize the Zen Micro any more.
    I have a 6GB Zen Micro, am using a PC with Windows 98 SE, and WMP9. I've given up using the Creative Software because apparently my computer's too old to recognize the new software. HELP!!

    Hi Atrain,
    If you're about to purchase a Zen Micro player, and you currently use the WMP0 program, you should consider upgrading your new player immediately to the newest beta "Plays for Sure" firmware program, which will allow you to transfer tracks directly from your computer's WMP0 Music Library to the Music Library of your new Zen Micro player. You can avoid all the confusion and problems of using the various Creative software programs as intermediaries...
    If you do decide to interact directly with WMP0, then you can easily set up your playlists before you "synch" them over to the Zen Micro player, or you can set them up piecemeal on the player's software, after the songs have been transferred to the player's music library.
    I have quite a bit of music from foreign sources, much of it not readily identified by the major tagging programs, so I make up my own tags. I use albums, genre, composer, and artist... but I also have playlists set up for "trumpets", "strings", "concertos", "sonatas", etc.
    I upgraded to the new beta firmware when it was first released, and have had no major problems with it. If you can bypass ever having to deal with the Creative Media Source Player/Organizer programs, you'll avoid a lot of problems...

  • Zen Micro Music Not Showing

    I have a Zen Micro and I didn't update the firmware since purchase 2 years ago. It worked fine until this evening I transfered songs and they didn't show up on the player. They showed up on my pc as though they were in the player but they are not. I went ahead and updated to the latest firmware and software releases per this forum's instructions. The unit syncs up to the PC just fine and appears to transfer songs. They show up on my pc as though they are on the Micro but when I attempt to access them all my player says is " Select Music To Play From Music Library ". What am I missing?

    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.

  • HUGE Zen Micro Music Prob

    Ok...i've had this problem practically since day ...i got it for x-mas. Everytime i add a song...it doubles it. Just recently...i added 57 songs. I look on the list...on my computer...and GUESS WHAT?!?! 44 (ish) songs...woohoo. What do i do?
    Please dont say delete each double...that will take WAY TOO LONG!

    sorry..it was clear in my head ;-)
    I just meant that all i'm doing is the ripping phase. i am not moving the tracks to the zen device, just ripping cd tracks to my laptop. is use zen micro explorer for the ripping phase; notmad will not rip cd's. ultimately, i would transfer to the device using notmad. BUT, the duplicates show in the library immediately upon ripping the cd. it does not happen when i download a song, only when the tracks go into the library from a cd. Ideas?
    Not life-threatening, but certainly annoying.

  • ZEN micro - music library (artist and alb

    Hi,
    I just got the Micro for xmas and installed the software. I now have two issues. After converting all my iTunes songs into mp3s, the artist and album won't show up. I've right clicked my Folders tab to include the artist and album and it lists on my Details section for view but not in Creative Library...any suggestions?
    I have hundreds of songs and going through each and everyone just to add artist and album will take forever.
    Second and more importantly: My micro starts up and I'm able to hear the clicks in the touchpad but it won't do anything. It shows 3 demo songs but they won't even play. I connect the USB to the micro and it shows "NEW HArdware detected" then a few minutes later it says, "device not connected" - i'm gonna see if the store i bought it from has any suggestions but figured I would try here as well. Thanks!

    . Chances are the converted songs don't have tag data. Use a tagging program to check, and add the required data. There's no real shortcut I'm afraid but a mass tagging program (which most are) should make easier work of it.
    2. Sounds odd and like the player is faulty. Can you access the Rescue Mode to see if you can run a disk cleanup? To access the Rescue Mode on the Zen Micro, remove the battery, hold the power switch to the "on" position, reinsert the battery. Choose Disk Cleanup from the menu.

    Well there's a delicate reminder at the top of the forum: <Please read the FAQ at the top of this board before starting a new thread.
    <
    The main problem here is the sheer volume of posts, so anything that can be done to reduce those is very helpful. I know what it's like though, if you have a problem with something the last thing you're interested in is (a) reading FAQs (b) people telling you to read FAQs. You just want an answer. We've all done it I'm sure (I know I have).
    Of course the FAQ post here isn't the shortest thing in the world, but hopefully the contents and even a text search make lighter work of it.
    I have to say having written several FAQs, I now begrudingly *always* check the FAQ for something I might have an issue or question with.

  • Can you browse Zen Micro music via folder na

    I find it annoying having to browse via album name as i have to rename all my tags to have artist then album name as i cannot always remember the artist from the album name.
    Thanks for all your help
    great forum

    Thanks for quick response
    I don't browse by artisit because most (probably %95) of the music i listen to are compilations that are mixed and that would be useless. I don't think mp3 players are very good for people listening to mixed music.

  • What to do if new firmware for zen micro is not for you

    Ok its pretty simple, takes long but it should work (never been tested)
    Uninstall the new firmware (keep all your songs saved onto PC music library)Install the cd you were given with the zen micro.You'll have all your songs on your pc library ( i would reccomend clearing out you zen micro music library and just putting the pc music library songs on your zen micro from there) so just transfer all the files you want onto the zen micro and it should be running fine.please reply and tell me what happens.Zenmastertml

    Hi Prakash,
    As per GAAP - FI general accepting account principal,
    Balance is define as on date,
    while transaction/P&L can define for perticular period date range.
    Here, I guess you want to see balance as on 30.06.2011
    and transaction for 01.06.2011 - 30.06.2011.
    Am i right?
    FYI, If you use 0BALANCE for any period, let say 01.06.2011 - 30.06.2011
    then it will show balance for last day 30.06.2011
    because its aggregation is SUM, LAST Value on time characteristics.
    More detail on requirement will help us to provide you better solution.

  • MS Organizer - music won't load on my Zen Micro Playl

    Hey, I've had a reoccuring problem regarding mediasource organizer. Lately, if I load music on my Zen Micro in one of the playlists, there are times where it looks like the songs are being loaded without a problem. However, the playlist is still completely empty. If I check out the "music" section in my Micro, the music's there. And if I try to re-load the songs from on my desktop in the playlist, it still won't show up. I've never had this problem and am clueless as to how to solve it. I have Windows XP and version 3 of mediasource organizer (I tried v5 before I reformatted - I didn't like it). Any help would be appreciated!
    - Jeff

    I am still having this issue. I have attached it in various usb ports, the mediasource 5 works and reads it. I cannot use the much easier explorer. I have WMP I have SP2 all upgraded firmwares etc... If anyone knows what to do please help.

  • I can't transfer my music from my zen micro to my

    I have a little problem when I try to transfer my music from the zen micro to my pc with zen media explorer I have an error ,I have the same thing using creative media source organizer.the error is always the same "transfer error" its says that my file is working or its occuped and it can't transfer it. That is so strange its that I can transfer misic from my pc to my zen micro but not the inverse.Help !!!!!!

    My personal view is the PC Music Library is a waste of time. It's an intermediate step between transferring tracks to the player, and I don't use any features within it. However your mileage may vary.
    You can import tracks into the MediaSource PC Music Library one of two ways (at least). . Have a view with the files/folders on one side, and then the PC Music Library on the other, and simply use the transfer arrow to put the tracks into it (basically the tracks won't be copied, the links to them are simply added to the library database). 2. Use the Import button, on the toolbar. I believe this prompts for a directory with your files in, and it will then scan through the files.
    Not sure if this was mentioned before, but before doing any of this make sure you install the latest drivers, MediaSource, and MediaSource plugin from Nomadworld.com downloads.
