Zen Neeon 6gb - audio blips after changeing

hey, i have had my Zen Neeon 6gb since the 24th of June, up untill about two weeks ago i was running Windows ME , the player was working fine, just recentaly i have changed OS to Windows XP professional and now, whenever i copy a song onto my player, it has really annoying audio blips and skips in every single track. Most of the music on my new computer has been copyed off my other useing my player, and it all plays fine, its only when i goto play it on my player.
Please Help, im really annoyed at this
PS: i have tried re-installing drivers and formatting the player, i even have the latest firmware, nothing is working!!!Message Edited by mischala on 2-02-200607:2 PM

I had the same problem. I was using the zen neeon as a mobile dri've (as in, copying stuff over to it through windows explorer). If you use the creative mediasource application to copy music to the player instead, it solves the audio blip problem completely. I hate having to use the software when the dri've is accessible in explorer but at least it isn't as annoying as itunes.

  • Zen Neeon 6GB (USB Probl

    Hi,
    I bought a zen neeon 6gb a few days ago. There were no problems at first but now.......
    When I plug it into my laptop, it's as if nothing was plug in!
    Same thing when I used the desktop in my office, I've changed another usb cable, I've pushed the reset button & nothing seems to work. Downloaded "Zen Neeon Firmware .0", also didn't work.
    So what now? I'm still waiting for the support team to reply my email.

    Does the player turn on, or doesn't it respond at all? Was the battery run down all the way?
    Regarding your e-mail, did you use the form on the website, and did get an auto-response back? You should always get an automated e-mail back with some tips, if they don't help, check over the e-mail as you generally need to reply to that to let them know, so someone will deal with you directly.

  • Zen neeon 6GB problem

    Hai
    I have a Zen Neeon 6GB and Iam frequently facing malfunctioning of the player. Sometimes the player is generating heat and the total battery is going to dry. i used it until it was out of battery and went to charge it up on my computer, i plug it into my USB cable, and when i looked at the screen all i get is the "CREATIVE" logo, it wont change.. i unplug it and try to turn it on, i either get the 'no battery' symbol and it switches off, or usually i jus get the 'CREATIVE' logo and it just sits there.. this is VERY frustrating and i hope theres something that can be done
    Please help me.

    There is no "replace" battery warning, Because of the type of battery it is when they are to the point of needing replacement the main sign besides not holding a charge or short battery time usage is heat. As electronics go heat is not your friend. I have not seen any instructions on how to open your player but if you Google it you may find some. The only way to find out what battery you need to replace is to get it open to look at it since it is an internal one.http://www.batteryuni'versity.com/parttwo-34.htm I don't know if this will help much no pictures. http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum...09&postcount=8

  • Zen Neeon 6GB..... DEAD

    Hope somebody can help out here, I'm at my wits end!
    Got my new Zen Neeon 6GB one week ago. Installed all the software, hooked the player up to a USB port, charged it up, and had a few days of problem-free listening.
    The battery was very low this morning so I hooked it up to a USB to recharge. Only this time my laptop will not recognise the device at all! It does not come up as an extra dri've on my "My Computer", and it is nowhere to be found on any device list.
    To make things worse the battery is so low that the player will not switch on at all. So basically what it does is:
    When connected to the laptop the word "Creative" appears on the display, but with no backlights, and no other button has any effect at all. The device is not read anywhere, and apart from the Creative logo could be considered dead as a dodo.
    When not connected to the laptop, I push the on button, the Creative logo appears very briefly, followed by a very quick glimpse of the "battery needs recharging" symbol, then it cuts off completely. No other button has any effect.
    I have reset the player a couple of times. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the softwear, and still no joy. I am really cheesed off that this kinda thing is happeneing only a week after buying it, I had been told that Creative were reliable?
    Anyway, any help would be very gratefully received.
    Merry Christmas!

    I have used Zen Neeon 6GB for the last 2 years untill a few months ago. I do not remember having any issues connecting to the computer. But I do know that when you connect, you don't need to turn it on via the on button. It the connection is auto detected and the player turns on on its own. Sometimes computers can't detect devices you might want to try disconnecting and connecting again (I know this may not be your case). You should get the charger to charge it via socket, it is much more efficient and less troublesome. You could also try connecting to other computers. You may also try posting this problem on PC Help forums to seek advice on device detection, they would likely be able to help.

  • Zen Neeon 6GB, charging via AC Adapt

    I have Zen Neeon 6GB player. When I connect my player to Creative's AC charging adapter there is no indiacation of charging. But when I connect it to my computer's usb port the battery icon flashes. Is it charging or not?

    It appears that generic usb chargers do not work properly with the micro photo.
    It has to do something with the micro photo's usb jack not being entirely compatible with them. The device isnt recieving enough power using these chargers.
    I tried quite a few, none worked.
    It seems that if the micro photo isnt pulsing, its not being charged properly.
    When I connect it to my dvd player through usb, it does indeed pulse and charges at normal speed.
    I'm afraid that the only way is to buy the original charger from creative...

  • ZEN NEEON 6GB - SNR changed to 98

    Recently, Creative had added a 6GB Zen Neeon to their Mp3-player segment. I noticed that the Signal-to-Noise Ratio of this new player has changed from 90 dB to 98 db! Is this a fault on the new specifications page, or was this intended? (so, the new Zeeon has a new sound chip in it or something?)
    My questions to Creative:
    Is the SNR of the Zen Neeon really 98 db?</LI>
    Is the new 6GB Zen Neeon still laggy as the Neeon 5GB in menus, or less laggy?</LI>
    Thank you for your reply!

  • Zen Neeon 6GB (Micro-HD Version) Setup for New Harddisk

    Dear all Zen Buddy,
    My Zen Neeon have been with me for more than 4 years, and recently just drop from table and has death certified.
    I have bought a 4gb hd new brain for it, hope anyone of you can please guide me possible to install it from scratch?

    Dorothy,
    Congratulations!!!
    You have worked hard to select a strong build and tuned the system well. Your system seems to perform VERY well and you certainly have not broken the bank to get to that level.
    I just checked PPBM5's site and your are #2 on the CS6 list performance board. So, I don't think that you need to do much else; it is time to put the PC to work! Also agree PPBM5 is a great tool - thanks Harm and Bill!!!
    Regarding the Areca, I don't think that it would get you much more speed unless you added more drives. I do love having mine, but it is more for the security of the redundant parity RAID protecting me from any data loss if a single drive were to die.
    And finally, I can't imagine not being on the www; you should probably get a good virus protection and get back on. I would not expect that with as much CPU power and RAM as you have that virus protection (set up correctly) would impact you performance in any noticeable way.
    Regards,
    Jim

  • Zen Neeon 6GB Prob

    Hey guys, I recently got a Zen Neeon for christmas, It was working BRILLIANTLY without error up until yesterday, i used it until it was out of battery and went to charge it up on my computer, i plug it into my USB cable, and when i looked at the screen all i get is the "CREATIVE" logo, it wont charge.. i unplug it and try to turn it on, i either get the 'no battery' symbol and it switches off, or usually i jus get the 'CREATIVE' logo and it just sits there.. this is VERY frustrating as i cannot li've without my mp3 player (seriously).. Thanks for your time.. i hope theres something that can be done,Neil

    Do you lose all your songs if you reset it's And is the reset button the little hole under the 'hold' button?
    Yes the little hole next to the hold switch is the reset button. You can use a pin or needle to press it down. However, don't jab it too hard like I did because I think I sort of dislodged the button. But it still works.. for now. And no you shouldn't lose any of your songs. Although the first time I reset my Neeon the music folder I was in it caused problems. It wouldn't delete and when I tried to access it on my player, the player froze. But that is just another problem altogether.
    If I remember correctly there is some firmware update for the Neeon that reduces chances of freezing, and should be downloadable from somewhere on this website.
    I found that freezing occurred the most when it was used for a long time, or when it heated up in hot weather or in my pocket.
    Hope that helped!

  • Creative Zen Neeon 6GB filesystem error on Li

    Hi there,
    First off, I have had no problem with the Zen Neeon in the past on Linux, has worked perfectly. However, now the mp3 player says it has a Filesystem error and shuts down. Is there anyway to format or fix this problem for Linux? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks in advance,
    Jeriko

    Well, good news. There is a simple way to fix my above problem if you're running Linux. Thought I better post it here incase someone has the same trouble. Simply open up your terminal and create a windows filesystem on the mp3 player device. For example, my mp3 player was dedicated to /dev/sda, you'd do this:
    mkdosfs /dev/sda
    And that should do it. Check the man page (man mkdosfs) for more info.
    Cheers,
    Jeriko

  • Is there a better way to re-render audio waveforms (after changing media files)?

    I'm shooting documentary footage on RED cameras at 6K resolution.  That generates a large amount of media.  The RDC format records R3D media files in 4GB chunks, which is actually relatively short compared to my hours-long media captures.  I've discovered that it's very handy to simply delete the R3D files from the RDC folder in cases where nothing is actually happening at that moment.  Since each R3D media file is timecode stamped, these actually stay in sync with my master audio track.  And Premiere Pro sensibly places gray diagonal bars where the underlying R3D files are missing.  All good.
    What's not good is that Premiere Pro confuses itself about the starting point of the PEK files.  Instead of simply greying out the part of the audio waveforms that are missing due to the missing media, it shifts the *waveform* to start at the location of the first R3D clip that is present, which is wrong.  If I clean the cache, quit the project, restart the project, and let it rebuild the cache, the audio waveform is correctly drawn.
    An ideal fix for this problem would be for Premiere Pro to recognize that if it re-links media it should re-render the audio PEK file.  An OK work-around would be to make it easy to just re-render the PEK file for a given media clip.

    A slightly quicker way to do what you described for an images is to select 'Duplicate version' instead of 'New version from Master' and then 'Remove adjustments' from version 1. This will leave you with the first version as the 'before' and the second version as the 'after' without having to use L&S.
    If you need to do this for 108 images, it might be quicker to do the following:
    Export Masters for all 108 images.
    Reimport these into a new project (called 'before', for example)
    You will then have a new project with the 'before' images and your original project with the 'after' images. You could then build an album to group all of these together. When you've finished with the 'before' & 'after' images (build your web gallery or emailed them or whatever), simply delete the 'before' project.

  • Creative Zen Neeon 6gb Reset But

    Does pressing the reset button delete all your songs? And is it the little hole below the hold switch?PS: Anyone solved the freezing of the screen issue yet? Or the speed problem (takes ages to change between songs)?Cheers

  • Zen Neeon Batt

    Help PleaseCan anyone tell me how I can get a new battery for my Zen Neeon 6GB, one month after warranty it has crashed and only shows the Creative symbol when connected to the computer (the computer doesnt even recognise it as being connected) and a large?empty battery icon in the middle of the screen when not connected, it wont charge or do anything - Creative want AUD$40.00 to have it serviced - is there anyway this can be done without the massi've cost. I have done all the downloads and upgrades etc, tried other USB...Will never get another Creative again

    Is there a way to check if your battery is fully charged without disconnecting the usb cable and turning the player on?
    I don't own a Neeon, but is there no onscreen indicator of charging?
    I'm wonder if disconnecting while its charging could harm the battery in any way or stop it from properly charging.
    It won't cause any problems.
    I've also noticed that sometimes even though the usb cable is connected the backlight is not on and the little wave (on the zen screen) doesn't move, there is just a line, at these times does it mean its not charging?
    Ah, it sounds like it does show something. Normally the manual has a list of the charging icons, but if it's a little line with a plug on the end that means with all the other players that it's operating off the mains and has finished charging.

  • Zen Neeon Trou

    I've had my Zen Neeon (6GB) for about 2 months and have recently started having problems with it. When playing it has started taking a much longer time to change songs almost like it's freezing in between song changes and when this happens it takes a few goes before being able to turn it off. I originally thought it might have something to do with the battery, but it doesn't seem to be anything connected to it. Any help would be great. Thanks!Message Edited by steph0202 on 0-03-2007:09 PM

    I am having the same problem with my Zen Neon (6GB). It starts up very slow and takes a long time to load different screens. It actually stopped playing songs now. Seems like it has trouble?loading the songs. The radio FM works though. Please advise someone how to fix it. I tried?resetting but?the same problem?continues. Please?advise. Thanks.

  • Zen Neeon play for sure suppo

    <SPAN>Hi All
    <SPAN>
    <SPAN>Creative haven?t release firmware update so it can support play for sure for the creative Zen Neeon 6gb. Does anyone know if creative are looking to release a firmware update soon so it can support play for sure?
    <SPAN>
    <SPAN>Many Thanks
    <SPAN>
    <SPAN>Pratt

    I too would like to see Playsforsure compatibility with this player. I've been scouring the net and it seems that this player once was Playsforsure compatible as I can see it has the Playsforsure logo on the back of the box. It's also still mentioned in the manual. Whats changed since then?
    This player meets all the requirements that Microsoft need for it to be compatible. Come on creative release a firmware update!

  • Zen Neeon freezing iss

    I recieved a Creative Zen Neeon 6GB last friday, and it was working perfectly until yesterday.
    Now, when I tried to turn it on yesterday, it simply went to the CREATIVE logo screen, and then got stuck there. I tried resetting it, but it continues, every time. I left it alone for a while, and now it shows a low battery logo when I try to turn it on. So, I tried to plug it in to my computer today to charge it, and it got stuck on the CREATIVE screen then too. I've tried everything available in the pinned message on this board, but I can't seem to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.

    If you can't get into rescue mode then the player sounds faulty.
    There no point in contacting support three times, it just wastes resources as they'll have to close the duplicate requests or may even answer them unwittingly.
    You need to wait for the autoresponse email from support, then reply to that, and allow some days for a response. Particularly over the Christmas period.
