Zen Neeon "Deleting" H
Hi,
I have a Zen Neeon, 5GB, and was trying to delete?one track, selected delete on the menu, which asked me to delete again, and I said yes. However, I am not sure if I have deleted my whole music library or not. The problem is that the player screen has since then said "Deleting..." so far going on fi've hours, and I only had about 500 songs. Should I wait it out, or does this require going into a recovery mode as described in the Knowledge Base? Is there anything else I can do to get the player to function again? Thanks for your help in advance!!
I had the problem too and had to reset the player (just reset, not relaoad firmware). Now it works fine - and I now delete any tracks I want to delete via MediaSource rather than on the player itself. I've had no problems doing it that way.

Zen Neeon - cracking band - skipping songs - highly disappointed in the quality of workmans
Has anyone had any problems with the "band" around the zen neeon cracking? It has not been dropped. It has been cared for like a newborn child and within -2 weeks it had a crack in it. Now, a couple of months later it has 3 cracks in it. My husband said the band was probably too tight to begin with and was cracking to relieve the pressure on itself. But of course I called warranty services and they say it is physical damage so it is my tough luck. This thing has been babied!!!! It is poor quality workmanship.All the kids in my daughter's class wanted one after they seen hers after Christmas. I specifically told her to tell them WE DO NOT RECCOMMEND THE ZEN NEEON!? I told her to show them what hers has done (the cracking) and suggest they might want to spend their money elsewhere. Now on top of all this, it has started going bonkers!? I created her some playlists, and they used to play fine. Now, it will play one or two, skip 3-4 of the songs, then go back to playing. It used to work fine. I told her we would delete them off, add them back on, and try that again. Has anyone else had this skipping song problem?HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM OF THE BAND CRACKING?I wish I would have spent my money on an Ipod.Message Edited by bulldogmama on 03-0-200602:0 PM
I have!? There's a big crack in mine, and yes I've dropped it, but not nearly as hard to have caused a crack (I catch it by the headphone cord before it hits the ground XD)? My brother saw it, and he's like, "What the heck did you do?"? and I told him "nothing!"?Mine's been going nuts as well!?It just gives me trouble!Now this time, I hope this isn't a permanent problem, but today, I was listening to my Zen Neeon. I shut it off, put it away, and then later on in the day, went to listen to it. Turned it on. The "Creative" screen comes up, and FREEZES there. The lights that normally flash when the player is turned on do not appear,? just the "Creative" logo, and it FREEZES there. I reset it, and turn it back on, and it just keeps doing the same thing. I'm VERY disappointed with it. Not to mention I'm going to have to take the heat from my parents because they bought it for me. I wouldn't reccomend it to -anyone- ever!

i got my zen neeon a few mths ago when it was just released not long in the market. the player seems to have problems with the playlist i created. it keeps hanging the moment i selected the playlist to play. sometimes it even 'locks' the player (the screen displays the lock sign) that i have to press the reset button each time. i tried recreating playlist for several times but that does not help.
i got mp3 and wma files in the playlist. or is it that it cnt include or mix wma files inside?
pls help. thanks.I had the problem too and had to reset the player (just reset, not relaoad firmware). Now it works fine - and I now delete any tracks I want to delete via MediaSource rather than on the player itself. I've had no problems doing it that way.

I have got Zen Neeon 5 GB. Mp3 player. I have created a playlist on Zen Neeon. There are 3 mp3 each one. It plays tracks but return to back from fourth track. It plays four tracks.
How can I solve this problem....perhaps try...
...creating a new folder called RECORD...
...on your player...
...all in capitals...
...it may have been accidentally deleted... -
when my zen neeon play some mp3 file it get's hang, i scanned with Norman antivirus and it hang when scanned the same file, when i deleted it hang again(connected PC).but it's ok playing the other mp3 file,help me...
can i formated the mp3 player from windows explorer(FAT)?
or any ather way to fix it's
i had it for 5 month.
so please help me....Does it hang with the same file? If so, it's the file and not your player. Some files could be corrupt or just a format that players have trouble with (like WMA DRM in some cases). If that's the case, remove the file and it should be fine.

Firmware already updated to .0I had the problem too and had to reset the player (just reset, not relaoad firmware). Now it works fine - and I now delete any tracks I want to delete via MediaSource rather than on the player itself. I've had no problems doing it that way.

my ! i've checked other messages on this board, but they all seem to be about zen micros, where you can take out the battery. i cant do that with a zen neeon, how do i stop the freezing? It seems to happen whenever, there is no specific thing that makes it freeze, and it happens when the music is playing, right in the middle of songs! i actually sent it in to be repaired for this same problem, and they apparently replaced the software, but the same thing is now happening again (three days after getting it back from the shop!) can anyone help? im contemplating the banging on the dresser method...
the same thing is happening to my Mp3 and i didnt know how to fix it so you just push the Reset button and all of your muxic is still there or does it get deleted?

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! -
Can no longer access my menu on Zen Neeon
I have upgraded to the .009 firmware so now my zen neeon loads quicker and skips tracks quicker but now when I press the scroll button to access the menu nothing happens except it resets to the first track on my player.
I've tried resetting my player. I've created playlists which I can't access. I just can't get to my menu!!!!
Do I need to do a recovery mode rescue?Thanks for the reply Edmeister. All the tabs take a moment attempting to load, then the Inbox Preview screen pops up. I have even uninstalled FF and reinstalled it. I've checked my settings even though I've made no changes in months. Again, the mail box has never had a problem until about 2 weeks ago. Fortunately, I can retrieve my mail through my old Eudora program and do the house keeping through IE8. Just wish I knew what has changed, i.e., my fault or a program.
Thanks again. -

i have my neenon about one month. so far it worked quite well until a few days ago. every time i plug it to the usb the computer seems to have a problem to identify the device and it gets stuck on this window (the window image is in hebrew):it seems to take to much time to act only on this process, and after it finally finished (about 0 minutes) it cannot open the neeon file and it says something about a problem with the input/output.i go to "zen neeon media explorer" and is says that the device is not even pluged in!?same problem with other comuters! so the problem is realy on the neeon. i already tried to press on play/off button and plug in the usb at the same time and then downloading?a firmware but it did not helped at all. can somebody pleas help me?
Should I just get a new one?

BSOD when I connect my ZEN Neeon to my
Hi,
As said in the subject title.. My computer goes to the BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) each time I connect my Zen Neeon mp3 to it. This is the first time this has happened, just recently it started doing this, I've connected and disconnected the MP3 and the same thing happened 3 times in a row.
Is there anyway to fix this and ways to prevent it's
I took a photo of what comes up on my camera, so if I need to post it let me know. "fastfat.sys" is the technical error problem, that's what it says on the BSOD.Hey,
Well somehow I've fixed the problem. I did some things?before I tried connecting the MP3 to my computer but whatever I did, it fixed it. I installed some Windows Updates and then connecting and disconnecting the MP3 quickly because apparently that does something - not sure though, so it could've easily just been updating my Windows Update.
I didn't even have to download that Microsoft hotfix - thanks for the link though
Cheers! -
I am very happy with my Zen Neeon and have no complaints as of yet.
Here are two suggestions I have thought of:
. I listen to electronic music among millions of other people. Often times they are recorded as sets, up to hour or so long. If there could be faster 'fastfoward' times, or perhaps some sort of skip by percentage or something to that effect it would help greatly. Many car cd/mp3 players have this feature available now. This way you dont have to listen to the first 20 minutes of every set, but never hear the finish.
2. Put the volume buttons in a different location or change the interface. Your hand generally cover the volume buttons when pushing in the scroll wheel, and if a volume button is pressed in the scroll wheel will not select.
Hopefully these suggestions are in the right place, I had a look around but could not find anywhere else to put them. Thanks.Message Edited by Phikticious on -4-2005 05:48 PMI'm not quite happy with my neeon. My current firmware version is .009.
Here are the features that I think creative should have already included on it Neeon:
. Neeon should remember where it was when I turn it off. Let's me give you an example. Suppose you are listening to a 2 hours audio progrom (Audio Book, Blog, etc) and at some point, you have to stop listen to it and do something else, what should happen. For iPod (even the shuffle one), when you turn the player back again, it will continue where it left. For Neeon?, First you have to browse for the record first (If you play the program from the playlist) then you have to manually scroll through the record until it reach the point that you have left, via the scroll botton. And suppose you do one too more click and it go to the next record, you have to do this whole thing again.
2. It should remember the playlist. As I've already mention in the st features: When you play from a playlist, the Neeon will not remember that it 's play from the playlist. So, when you turn off your and turn it on later, it will just goto the first music/song/program on your neeon, not the first one on the playlist.
3. It should support audible just like other mp3 in the Zen series or even the low-end muvo.
I've already contact their technical support and here is a quote from them:
"As regards to your request, what we can assist you is to feedback the information to the relevant development department. As such it will be up to the development team to determine if this is within the product means. If this is possible then, perhaps they may be able to implement in the update."
The last sentence is great :: it says if we can and we want to, perhap we maybe do it.
I'm considering these lack features as a bug in design/implement. Maybe my expectation is too high as I'm a previous iPod user and such a stupid problem have never occur to me. Maybe yo wonder why I switch to zen Neeon. The reason is at that time, iPod Nano 4 GB is out of stock in Thailand, so I pick up this one (since the shop owner only tell it's good point, like sound quality is good, it have one GB more, etc).
I do really hope that the creative's "Development Team" is capable, willing, and do implement these features, in order to make the Neeon be what it should already be or put it the other way round, just to make it work, at least as best as, the entry level iPod Shuffle.
I know that Neeon have more features comparing to iPod (and it is what lure me) but as an mp3 player, I think it should focus most on mp3 features. All other features is just an add-on.
I believe creative do have a future, but it should know where to focus. -
Zen Neeon direct record in WAV form
Hi everyone,
I'm looking at buying the Zen Neeon 2. I want to use the Direct Recording to record straight from, say a CD player into the Neeon. But I want to record in WAV format at 6 bit, 44.k (full CD quality). I've read through the manual and it's not clear.
Does anyone out there know that it will defintely reord direct in full quality WAV format?
Thanks, I'd appreciate any help.
Stewart Peters
Sydney, Australia... thanks.
I'll use it for rough mixes in my studio. I'm getting used to the idea of mixing it then naming it and tarnsfering it in wav format via usb.
Thanks again
