Zen sleek photo- how do i put photos on i

how do i put photos onto my zen sleek photo. i have tried doing it through both the creative software that came with the zen and also through media player, both with no avail. please help!

I've been doing it through the Creative software, through the Zen Sleek Explorer, click on "Add Media" and add your pictures. I have also added pictures on the Sleek Photo through drag and dropand thirdly, through Windows Explorer, right click the pictures you want to transfer to the Sleek Photo and you'll get a menu entry "Transfer to Sleek Photo", that's the fastest way

  • Zen Sleek Photo and Audi

    Hi everyone. First let me say for the millionth time how much I love my Sleek Photo. It puts the iPod to shame period. I love my Zen Micro, but my heart belongs to the Sleek photo. it has everything I wanted and more!
    My question is, how long will it be before this player is compatible with Audible? I'm using my Zen Micro for now, but want to make the Sleek photo my main player for everything. It has bookmarks so I assume, but we know what assume means:smileyvery-happy:, it will be compatible with Audible.
    This is a dumb queastion, but can I not just download the Zen Sleek Audible firmware? I won't with out confirmation of coarse, but except for the photo part are they not basically the same player?
    Thanks Creative for this wonderful player. You really do listen to us!:smileyvery-happy:
    Judi

    DM,
    Thanks. I mentioned when I posted that question that it was stupid to ask. I should know better, hey I thought I should at least ask. I know you all think I'm whiny for buying a Zen that is not yet Audible compatible, but this player is just wonderful. I still have my Micro, which is great also, but I'm hoping the Sleek Photo will also be Audible compatible. A tech at Audible told me that if the ZSP has bookmarks it will no doubt be added at some future date. I hope so. Thanks for answering, you are one of the most knowledgeable posters on the forum and I thought I'd get a response from you first.
    Have a great weekend!
    Judi
    Very proud owner of a 5GB Zen Micro & a 20GB Zen Sleek Photo!:smileyvery-happy::I

  • Zen Sleek Photo uploading Audio Book Iss

    I have searched the forum and been unable to find any information about problems uploading an Audio Book into my Zen Sleek Photo. I was wondering if someone would be able to help me out? The file is not corrupted, I can play it in Windows Media Player, I just can't sync it into my Zen Sleek Photo. Whenever I try, an error message appears. The same is true when I attempt to use the software with which I downloaded the file (OverDri've).
    The file is an audio book?digitally 'borrowed' from my public library and it is protected. I found a post by CATHERINA that she recommended using a Zen Sleek Photo for this same process. I was really hoping someone could help me out.
    I did copy and paste the file into the player and?my player told me?I didn't have a license... I then?find out after reading (... on this forum or website... read so much today I can't remember!) that I can't do that b/c the license doesn't transfer over (oops!). I have always had great experience with the Customer Service from Creative so I hope everyone else has and that you guys have some great advice for me.... Thanks!

    Thanks for responding!? I have tried following all of the steps they provided at their website. The program itself is pretty self explanatory. The problem always happens mid-transfer. For both WMP and OMC (OverDri've Media Center). I even updated everything I could for the Zen Sleek Photo, and as many of you know there really isn't all that much in the way of updates for it. I downloaded the ZenCast Organizer?thinking I could use it for all media types, not only ZenCasts, but I can't figure out how to put other files than ZenCasts into it. I'm usually not this computer illiterate!
    I have tried using Real Player to upload the file as I read here in another post that some people managed to use that to get around file size issues (I think they were able to load smaller files, just not big ones whereas I can't load anything). Error message was reported and the list of errors ranged from not having the correct license (I feel this is incorrect as I can play the files on my computer... is that wrong?)?to the player not supporting that type of file. Does anyone know if the Sleek Photo's have problems with DRM's??I have even updated my WMP to and tried to upload the files again, same error message. Someone mentioned on another thread something about having an error b/c my ID Tags are insufficient for the player. I tried using my sync manager that came with the player, but it doesn't seem to want to do anything. It sat there for about 20 minutes searching or something. It was my last attempt so I got frustrated and decided to hold off on playing with it for a while.

  • Zen Sleek Photo and Nomad Zen X

    I posted earlier about problems with Vista and the Zen Sleek Photo mp3 player. The Zen software is not compatible and won?t install.
    After receiving some information from Creative, and after some further experimenting on my own, I have put together a procedure that will, in fact, do a full install of the Zen Sleek Photo on a machine running Vista.
    I have also discovered that this installation procedure also works for my Nomad Zen Xtra ? a nice bonus!
    I will send this info, in Word document form, to anyone who requests it. Just email me at:
    [email protected]
    It worked for me, and I have received feedback from several people already who have used this procedure with 00% success, so I know that it works!

    Hey Chickybabe,
    I also own a Zen Sleek photo, and while I haven't had any of the problems you have mentioned with Napster; one problem you should watch for (currently experiencing it for the 2nd time!) is trying to play your music from Napster and not being able to because you get a message saying that "No license to play this track". And it's a huge problem, as it doesn't just affect one song, but your ENTIRE library. I fixed it once and am trying to find out how to do it again. Once I do, I'll probably leave Napster, but I will probably have to download ALL my music again.

    ok...i think i've fixed it! maybe... i cant work out how to delete this message though?technology is not my friend

  • Zen Sleek Photo Freezes/Locks Up after about 5 minutes usage (need to drain battery to recov

    Hi,
    My 20G Zen Sleek Photo has just recently transformed itself into a useless brick.
    No matter what I try and do, it always ends up freezing after about 5 minutes usage. When you force a reset it does unlock but when it comes back on it sticks on the Creative "copyright" start up screen.
    I've reformatted and re-installed the firmware several times but with the same result.
    font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">
    The only time it totally unlocks is when you either:
    () let the battery fully drain and then recharge it or
    (2) you disconnect the battery lead and then press the On/Off switch for several minutes.
    I've looked everywhere for a solution/reason but nothing. You find plenty of people with the same problem but no answers. Surely someone knows how to fix the problem
    Is it a faulty battery (unlikely because mine charges up fine and holds it charge well)
    Is it the hard dri've (very unlikely since the player can start up correctly [given the above recovery procedure] and play tracks within the 5-0 minutes you have available)
    Is it the firmware (I doubt it, I can't see what the firmware's got to do with a delayed lock up, having worked fine up to that point)
    Is it the motherboard (maybe....., to my mind it points to a component failure that allows an electric charge to build up and not dissipate, the only way to discharge it is to short the battery pins [with, I hasten to add, the battery removed!])
    font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">
    Has anyone within the Creative community successfully solved this problem Has anyone received a decent answer from Creative
    I find it staggering that the guys at Creative have washed their hands of this problem. They, after all, are the most likely people to identify the problem - only they have a schematic of the motherboard that would allow them to investigate and locate the problem.
    For the record the firmware I'm using is v .0.0.
    Any guidance would be much appreciated,
    Victor

    Is there really no one with an answer to this problem or have I overlooked a previous post that explained the fault.

  • Zen Sleek Photo, Zen Xtra, and Vi

    I know I?ve posted about this before, but new folks visit here every day, and the information contained in these posts can get buried after just a few days. If the moderators wish, they can remove any earlier posts that I have put up here on this board.
    This concerns problems with Vista and the Zen Sleek Photo mp3 player. The Zen software is not compatible and won?t install.
    After receiving some information from ?Creative, and after some further experimenting on my own, I have put together a procedure that will, in fact, do a full install of the Zen Sleek Photo on a machine running Vista.
    I have also discovered that this installation procedure also works for my Nomad Zen Xtra ? an unexpected bonus!
    It worked for me, and I have received feedback from several dozen people already who have used this procedure with 00% success, so I know that it works!? I am currently getting three or four requests daily for this, and most have been kind enough to follow up and let me know that it solved their problem.
    I will send this info, in Word document form, to anyone who requests it. Just email me at:

  • Zen Sleek Photo - Can't reload firmw

    I acidentally erased the firmware on my Zen Sleek Photo and I've been having troubles re-loading it. I downloaded the only firmware available on Creative's site for the Zen Sleek Photo and tried to run it, but it keeps saying that my player is not connected. My player is in fact connected and I don't know why it's not picking it up. I know Microsoft Windows is picking it up because I get that pop up that asks what I want to do when a media device is connected. I am basically stuck in recovery mode now because I can't load the firmware. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    After hours of searching around the forums, I finally found the solution. I downloaded the hotfixes found here http://ask.americas.creative.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE?New,Kb=ww_english_add,U={B8F6030-DA4F-D3-94F4-00500463020E},Company={CEAE26D-879-4C00-AC9F-03BC258F7B70},d=3025443648,VARSET=ws:http://us.creative.com,case=793
    They'll fix the problem even if you don't use an online music subscription.

    Hey, ZVM_00, I think these are what you're looking for. I'm not sure which one you want to buy but here they are:

    http://us.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=3&subcategory=264&product=505 0
    As far as your problem with connecting, I can't really help you there. It COULD be your computer but I remember someone telling me to use a different USB port than you're already using. If it's plugged into the front of your computer, try using a back port. That worked for me (for a while anyway). Good luck to you two.
    And try what I said, it may work!

  • Zen Sleek Photo won't turn

    My Zen Sleek Photo won't turn on period. I'm kind of scared because I just bought it and finished getting all my music on it. I tried putting the charger in because that usually turns it on but that didn't work. I tried holding down the on button. I tried to access it from the computer with the USB cord and that didn't work. So if anyone has any help please tell me.

    Try resetting it, with a paperclip (put it into the reset hole and you should feel a very small "button" to press with it).
    Leave it charging for a while aswell, in case it has run completely out of power. If it still doesn't work after trying those two things, then I would definitely recommend contact Customer Support directly, as there could be a problem with the unit.

  • Zen Sleek Photo - Dust Gathering Inside Scre

  • Zen Sleek Photo and Podca

    I just bought a Sleek Photo to replace my very nice (small capacity) Creative Muvo Sport. My first few hours have been disappointment. Rather than listen to music, my plan was to partition a 4-5 gigs for data backup, and leave the rest for podcasts, and some music.
    Although Creative has broken the code on music, they have forgotten about the podcast market. Ideally their software would allow automatic importation of podcasts that could be programmed to be listened to once, and then automatically deleted. They could allow a specially flagged folder to offer this destructi've feature. And an instant delete button sequence could remove any podcast you didn't want to finish.
    Unfortunately, podcasts are treated like music... there forever. This make deleting and keeping track of listened to podcasts a problem.
    I'd also like to see that the 4+ gigs of space accessible without going to dri've mode. It's such a waste of time. Perhaps Creative could allow the podcasts to be copied to, and listened to in this dri've space leaving their music software features in the protected music space?
    Finally, it would nice to watch movies. I am surprised that Creative doesn't offer a $0 firmware upgrade to facilitate that.

  • Zen Sleek Photo and Naps

    I'm having a big problem transferring my songs to my new Zen Sleek Photo, and I subscribe to Napster to go. The first 25 songs I have transferred with no problem...but now everything else I try to transfer gets an error message. Even Creative Mediasource Explorer and Organizer aren't working. Anyone have any clues as to what the problem could be? Thanks.
