I have the exact issue. I am trying to load the bible on to a zen nano plus and after much stilly behavior came to search why...
Its ~500 or so meg but 66 folders, 89 files total.
Does anyone know of a small mp3 player that can handle this? I really love the nano plus but that was the main issue of buying and if it cannot handle that it will be a gift for a kid somewhere
Can anyone tell me if Creative Zen V GB can hold 200 files or recommend one that can?Message Edited by docster on -08-200608:58 AM

Zen Nano Plus 256MB lost co

Hi. I lost...or should I say I dropped the battery casing for my White Zen Nano Plus into the drain..*ouch* Does anyone know how I can get a replacement cover. I am living in Singapore..thanks.

Why have you bumped this - the answer given above is a good one?
Contact Support via email, tell them the clip at the end broke and they will send you out a new one. It is a known problem that these clips are weak so they don't seem to quibble about replacing them.

Zen Nano Plus armband in Austra

Hi all
I've spent a lot of time researching what mp3 player to buy. I eventually decided on the Zen Nano Plus due to it's size, features, good reviews, and being able to use the armband for running and gym work.
Until I discovered the armband is unavailable in Australia! According to the Creative website, the armband is a standard accessory included in the box if you li've in the US. In the UK, it is available from the website as an optional accessory. But it's not available at all in Australia.
Without starting a discussion on why Creative would market in this way, does anyone have any suggestions on how I might source an armband, with or without the player? I am happy to purchase from US websites, but I haven't come across any that will ship to Australia. Creative themselves certainly don't, neither the US or UK sho
ps.
Does anyone know of an online US retailer that will ship to Australia? Does anyone have one that they don't want?
Cheers

Woohoo! Success, at last.
Found an Australian online retailer that ships to Australia (obviously). It looks like this mob has imported a stack of Zen Nano Plus's, complete with silicon case and armband.
http://www.mp4store.com.au/category4_2/product222/product_info.html
I ordered late on Monday night and it was in my hands on Wednesday morning. About $255. And the best bit - available in orange! Most retailers only seem to stock black or white. Also in light blue or silver apparently.
Very happy, finally. Thanks to all for trying to help.
Clowndogger - I hope you haven't switched to iri'ver!

Mass Storage Drivers to save Zen Nano Plus...[HALLELUJAH SOLVEDDDD!

Okay, my Zen Nano Plus was working fine until about two days ago, when it just started shutting off. The battery was full, and I switched batteries three times, but it still wouldn't stay on. I looked through the forums, and there was advice to update the firmware. [I had ..0] I downloaded it [.3.03], and ran it, but then it said that it couldn't find the hardware for the software [or the software for teh hardware?] and I didn't know what to do, but the computer [or whatever] decided to disconnect the Nano from the comp, so there was no firmware on the player at all. And now it won't turn on.
So I looked on the forums for THAT, and it was advised to download the Mass Storage Drivers, so I did. Only I don't know if I'm supposed to double click the icon and execute the program before I do the whole "push play before connecting the player to yor computer and continue holding play for ten seconds" thing, but I did, and I don't know if I was supposed to do, and somebody please help meh because I love my Zen and if he dies I am going to die as well. And be really bored during my classes.
Also, I am running on Windows ME.Message Edited by rubyandrest on 0-29-200708:4 PM

Dude...i have been a loyal customer of creative for years....i just updated my firmware on my nano plus and my zen shut down....no reset...nothing. i sent an email and i recieved a generic email about paying for contact help. they have lost a loyal customer and i am telling all of my friends to never buy a creative product. mine was fine and then i saw a firmware upgrade and thought, "wow, this would be great". then after installing it is useless. no help from creative at all. i have always had soundblaster cards and creative speaker systems so i figured id get their mp3 player...now i will never patronize their company again. go get an ipod. i am on payday! they will probably delete this post and deny me access to the site after this, but i am a marketing management major and this is a big No No for companies that wish to stay around. Creative will be gone in a few years if this is the service they offer.

Zen Nano PLus song list probl

I had transferred about 00 songs into my zen nano plus but when I played it, I realised that I had lost alot of songs. Check the system info and it states that I have only 34 songs in the player. When i check back on my pc, it indicates that i have 00 songs in my player.
I owned the gb version and have only transferred less than half of its capacity.
I have the updated firmware and driver installed and my songs are all mp3 format. Therefore there shouldn't be a reason the player can't play my songs.
Thanks,
NinaMessage Edited by arnina on 06-04-2006 09:40 AM

So after I posted my initial qns, I went through the forums and found out that flash based players couldn't handle too many folders. I had transferred my songs using wmp sync and by doing so, the player created folders for each individual artist and broke down further into albums. This would have been great for hdd players but not for flash based ones.
What I did was to just transfer the songs individually using the explorer. It's a tad hassling but it doesn't create all those folders.
Hope that this help for any other new users of zen nano plus or flash based player. Feel a bit idiotic answering my own question though.
Jaded_Whisper if you have any more questions, you could pm me. I could try to help you with all my newbie expertise. LoL

Zen Nano PLUS - Firmware Broke My Ze

Please help me .
I have read through countless threads here looking for the answer on what to do when...
...your Zen Nano Plus is passed warranty, you install the latest firmware, and your player is no longer readable by your USB ports.
Before I tried upgrading the firmware it would detect it as what it was -- a Zen Nano Plus. Now, however, I plug it in and I don't even get a notification that Windows detects it even so much as a generic device.
Everyone says: Revert back to an older version of firmware.
Question: HOW DO I ACCOMPLISH THIS WHEN ) I CAN'T TURN MY PLAYER ON AND 2) IT IS NOT BEING READ WHEN I PLUG IT IN?
Sorry about the caps, but I feel Creative is about to let me down after all these years. Did I waste money on this thing or is there an actual solution that works?
My friend's dad had this exact same problem. He took it back and exchanged it for another Zen Nano Plus and it did the same thing agan.
Thanks in advance.
PS - Thanks to Creative for being acti've in these forums and trying to help their customers who have given Creative their hard earned money that they earned working at a job.

IT WORKED!!
PeeBee you are the man for your post in this thread:
http://forums.creative.com/creativel...d=279272#M6263
All this is Creative's doing, though, for their lackluster support for their own product. In one thread they specifically say Zen Nano Plus has no recovery mode. Why does it take non-Creative staff such as yourself to call them out and help with these issues? My friend's dad had to take time out of his day to dri've back to Best Buy to exchange it (TWICE). If only Creative would administer care in their own product support then threads centered around Creative's MP3 players being beat down by their own firmware wouldn't have over a thousand thread views each by people looking for retribution for a piece of junk they think they wasted their money on.
Thank you, PeeBee. I, on the other hand, am investing in Apple next time due to lost faith, faith that has been religiously stood by since the beginning days of Dr. Sbaitso. If this thread gets deleted rather than replied to by a mod, admin, or Creative staff member then it means I'm right.

Zen Nano Plus bricked by Recovery Tool?

Re: Books on Cd I went ahead and attempt to install the latest firmware upgrade. At this time the upgrade seems to be progressing.
Okay. The player has successfully booted up
Success. After removing Windows Media Player , I was able to install the latest firmware upgrade. I have several follow-up questions. Most important question is #
. I wonder why the Zen Micro Media Explorer is not available to me. It is all grayed out. Any suggestions on how to get it to work
2. Is the Zen Micro Media Explorer a logical substitute to employing the Windows Media Player 0 It seems to have everything I need .
3. How am I able to create a new playlist in the device if I cannot access this application
4. When I select Playlist on the device, I see a message that says: To create a playlist select from the Now Playing context menuWhat is that all about and where do I roam to do this
Thanks very much for your help
Richard One of my new Zen Nano Plus appears to have been bricked by my use of the Recovery Tool, when it was misbehaving. This happended before with another Zen Nano Plus we had, but we fixed that over a year ago and it works fine now.
Actuallly, it's one of 6 my family has - plus we have lots of other Creative products (a Micro, Zen, Vado, X Mod etc). While its almost brand new, its was purchased on eBay in 2008.
Usually the first thing is to update the firmware, and tried the Recovery Tool hoping it had been updated - but now my Zen Nano Plus dows not turn on or get connected, and I tried to PCs and several USB cords and various USB connections.
I undertand a Zen Nano Plus does not have a Recovery Mode but did try usual method.
. Remove the battery, and press & hold the Play button will connectiong to the PC.
2. Keep pressing play for about 0 second until the New Hardware Wizard starts - that will only happen the first time.
3. Completete the New Hardware Wizard
I believe it may need to be reformatted, but is not totally bricked and can be repaired.
Is it possible to get a get a Zen Nano Plus into Recovery Mode, or connect it to a PC so I can reformated
Thanks!

take it back to the store and buy something other than a creative. My nano plus crapped out after less than 6 months. Creative will not replace it, even though the warranty is for 2 months. Worst customer service I have ever seen.

Zen nano plus 1GB not fully connec

Just tried to connect a new Zen Nano plus gb to my XP machine. 
I can see it in Device Manager (both disk dri'ves and USB) and it says its working properly

But, it takes about 5 min to appear on Explore and then it freezes Explore and cant be read.

I have installed the Creative Mass storage drivers.

I've tried to update the firmware to .3.03 (from .2.03) but no go. It recognized it in recovery mode and sets a driver but the .3.03 install program takes it out of recovery with no changes to the firmware (it keeps searching for a compatible device with no luck)

I have also tried different USB ports, checking the power lever (which is OK) and assigning a device letter but Disk Management wont see it until after 5 min and then the device is not available

Very Quirky - any suggestion?

I'm about to send it back (very disappointed with Creative Support as I own Jukebox III and just lost my MuVo.

Thanks in advance,
David

Yes, thanks,?
I tired that and so many more things (restarting, deleting driver and re-installing, deleting media program, different USB ports, checking power allocations for ports, different cables etc.)
I'm a smart guy (BSEE) and spent about 5 hours trying to get this thing to work and no go - still quirky so I just dropped it off at the Post Office to return to Amazon.
Honestly, it not worth my time to spend 5 hours trying to get it to work after paying good money for it. Poor QC testing, poor firmware, and poor support.
What I don?t understand is why Creative doesn?t admit that these devices have a problem and either recall them or fix them. Look at the number of hits the "Zen Nano Plus Connection Problems " thread has! Over 200 hits.
This is obviously a problem and they have their head in the sand. And it irks me when companies do this; release a product that is faulty and let their customers sort it out.
I suggest a thread that logs the problems with respect to each device.
Example:
Thread: Zen Nano Plus Problems:
) connection problems: 493
2) Automatically powering off problems: 327
3) Etc
Each person could add their one occurrence to the running total and someone could sort through and actually find the number of occurrences a problem happens. This can get a company to own up to larger design and QC issues which they shove out the door to boost the bottom line.
But what do I know, I just stumbled upon this site googling ?Zen Nano Plus Connection Problems?
I'm moving on now and thank everyone for their help.
Best of luck,D

Zen Nano Plus Folder limi

Is there a limit on the number of folders that the g Zen Nano Plus can recognize on the screen? I can only see 33 folders. I can see all of my cd's that I have loaded when I view the Zen flash dri've with my explorer, however the last 5 cd's I have loaded do not appear on my screen and I cannot listen to them.

hello
im having a similar problem with my nano plus gb firmware version .
i have 25 folders with 34tracks both mp3 and wma loaded to my player and able to view them via windows explorer (xp sp2)
but when i disconect the player and view the folders im only able to view 9 folders and they are arranged out of order . i use the player to listen to audio books as well as music so having folders displayed in order is important.
i have tried naming the folders audio book , 2 audio book , and a audio book, b audio book but they still get mixed up
i have done a reformat in fat32 , should i do a firmware upgrade ?
i purchaced this player witha bigger memory and now find i cant use all of the gig :-(
any suggestions apreciated
regards

Zen nano plus browsing.

i want buy a zen nano plus GB but reading reviews found this problem : "Zen Nano does not allow you to browse through the collection of music files on the device while listening to music at the same time. You have to remember what?s on it because once you use the skip folder function it simply interrupts what you?re listening to and moves you on to the first track in that folder."
is true? with any firmware?
i thing is a problem something silly dont browse through files while listening but maybe has been solved now, i hope.

"The player remains usable as it is, don't get me wrong. It's just that it lacks features I wasn't expecting it to lack. A clear example... at any time I have no clue what track number I am listening to, which album/folder/number I am at, when the albums have changed."
If this is so important to you, then you could add a prefix for each song . For the first folder, each filename could start with A, then have a number 0,02,03, etc. for each song. The songs in the second folder could all start with the prefix B. If you use the album/folder/number sequence, then the prefix could start with a number. For example, the first song in the first album in the first folder could use the prefix 0A0. The first song in the third album's second folder could have the prefix 03B0. This seems rather simple to implement. If you want to save a charachter and use only 4 rather than 5, then instead of using 03B0, you could use C02A. Of course this assumes that there are no more than 26 songs in a folder. The other scheme assumes no more than 26 folders per artist.

Have tried to download drivers and software for Zen Micro. When I try to run it though, it does not install because it says that I do not have device connected. Have erased everything off of Zen Micro, but have not reformatted. When I attach Zen Micro to PC, Zen Micro displays "booted" & PC displays "Zen Micro" for a second or two, then switches to "MTP Device"?. Do I need to erase everything from the Zen Nano Plus first?2. What do you think my next step should be?Thx???

Zen Nano Plus WON'T START / RECOVERY / RES

Hello ZNP friends and fellow victims of frustration,
I have the GB Zen Nano Plus and a Windows XP operating system. My Zen is just over 3 months old, and a few days ago I started having the "stuck on Logo or hour glass (building library) problem". Like many of you, it has frustrated me beyond belief in my attempts to correct it. I'm certainly not a computer whiz, but I'm fairly good at following clear, numbered, valid instructions. I have tried many of the offered cures for this problem as provided in the discussion forum. None have worked for me.
I have just stumbled onto/into the fix for the WON'T START / RECOVERY / RESCUE problem. At least, I hope it lasts. The bad news is that I don't know or remember the steps for the cure. The good news is that the problem can be fixed. In the frustration of trying a million variations on the steps offered in the discussion area, I happened to fix my nano plus. I was becoming like a hyper zealot playing a slot machine.
What I do remember is this:
) I did download the application ZenNanoPlus_PCFW_LF___0 and install it, and put an icon on my desktop so I could activate it easily.
2) I did double click it to call it up.
3) I attached my nano plus via USB to the computer. I don't remember if I had to do that before or after bringing up the above application. (You may have to try both.)
4) I did leave the battery out of the nano plus during this operation.
5) I was required to reformat the nano plus which eliminated anything on it. When the instruction came on to reformat, it said "... area" so I was worried that the reformat might include more than the device itself but it didn't.
6) Then I loaded a song, disconnected the device from the computer, put in a battery, and it started fine.
What a task that whole process was! Of course I'm not telling you anything new. I was tempted to just get on with life, but then I thought I should really share this with those of you who have been in the trenches...to let you know that a cure is possible.
Creative should really have a clear set of instructions by now for fixing this problem.
Good luck!
Buck

Have you updated the firmware? this could be the major cause. Also, MP3 has far fewer kinks as a uni'versal format than WMA. If possible, I highly suggest using MP3 on MP3 players.

How exactly do you do this? I checked this out tonight - when I logged onto my PC using my son's Limited User account (XP Home, BTW) I could connect his N200 and see it in Device Manager and Windows Explorer but both Creative pieces of software (CMS and N200 Media Explorer) did not see that it was there!
I tried setting the Run As... properties for the CTMS.exe file to run as one of the Admin user accounts but kept getting an error about being unable to find a specific file (which is in the Media Explorer folder!). When I went back to using the current user the error stopped. Perhaps I need to set the Run As.. options on that file as well?
As we don't use DRM'd music this isn't going to be a problem but it would be good to find out the cause of this once and for all.
I'm going to see if WMP0 has problems as well or if it's just the Creative ap
