Zen Touch Froze, It will not re-set or enter recovery m

My Creative Zen Touch froze when my sister was using it, She didn't know what to do with it so waited for me to come home, when i got home the battery had died. Letting the battery die and recharging it has sorted this problem for me on numerous occasion at this stage but this time i am unable to recharge it. It sits at the reboot "Creative Copyright 2004" screen and will not recharge or turn on. I have tried the re-set button and entering into the Recovery mode with no success.
Any ideas ?

there is a way to recharge the battery, but therefore you have to remove it from the player, which will void the warranty, and still nobody has done this with a touch. at least i know of.
i don?t know the exact procedure so maybe you should search this forum for " battery died", or so. or somebody will explain it again.
the other way is to contact customer support and ask them if they could help.

  • My IPod Touch Froze, It will not turn off or move at all. Help me please?

    I was using my Ipod Touch the other day and it was fine...It just froze right when I was using it. I was on the home page and it froze and it won't turn off or move at all it is just un-responsive and I don't know what to do. Please help me!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I have an ipad2 and my iTunes page has froze.  Touching or tapping will not unfreeze it, any suggestions?

    I have an ipad2 and my iTunes page is frozen.  Touching and tapping will not unfreeze it.  All of my other apps work fine, but when I go back to iTunes it is still frozen on the same screen, any suggestions?  Thanks, Alan

    Have you tried closing the iTunes app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with iTunes 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iTunes app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Zen touch froze, now i'm stuck in recovery m

    my zen touch froze, after idle shutdown i turned it back on and it froze again. the next day, i turned it on, and it showed my libary as being empty. i tried to reload some music onto it, but one of two error messages kept coming up; one saying that the player was either busy or not connected, or one saying there was an error and to ensure that the player was properly connected. it was, as i could tell by the "docked" image on the screen of the player. i went into recovery mode and reloaded the firmware, and am now unable to get out of recovery mode. i turned the player off, then on, and nothing. i hooked the player to my computer to see if i could put music on it, and i still got the same error message. how do i get the software to recognize the player, or is it not recognizing it now because im in recovery mode? if so, how do i get OUT of recovery mode? and any idea if this all means my music library is completely gone, or will it be able to be recovered??
    ANY help at this point would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

    thanks so much for your help!
    i ran the firmware update, it got me out of recovery mode and the player itself is working normally, but when i try to add music to it from my computer, it still says "the operation failed. ensure player is properly connected before trying again." The "docked" icon is on the screen of the player, and whenever i try to add music, i can hear the hard dri've clicking away. it clicks a few times like it's trying to do something, then that message pops up on my computer screen. i went into device manager with the player hooked up and it was recognized. i disconnected the player and reconnected it so i could see that it was being recognized when i plugged it back in and it was. i then went back into the mediasource to try and add music again, and still nothing.

  • Develop software for connecting to creative zen touch and other devices not recognized by wind

    hi there,
    as a programmer i wonder, is it possible to obtain information of how to connect to usb-connected creative device (which is not recognized automatically by windows, as the zen touch) and how to communicate with it's is there any documentation about that available to "non-creative" ;-) developers?
    the idea is to create a plugin (e.g. for musikcube) that enables the programm to access the files on the device.
    i know there are third party companies that do provide software for connecting to e.g. zen touch, but i do not think that they have figured out every little bit by themselves, have they?
    greetings and thanks a lot
    asdf

    Try this:
    Download <a href='http://www.delldjsite.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=444' target=_blank>this[/url] file. Extract it to whatever folder you like. Inside that folder run the file fixup.cmd. A DOS window will open up and start display messages on what its doing, when its done it will instruct you to remove the device from Device Manager and reconnect it.
    Try this and see if it works.

    Hey guys
    all of a sudden, my zen touch froze. a screen came up that just said there was a firmware problem. this happens whenever it switches on and once on it wont turn off until it runs out of battery! also the reset button doesn't work. i've tried just connecting it to the computer and trying to update the firmware that i've got off the internet but of course it tells me that the player is not connected!

    I am having the same problem (lost in back-up purgatory) on both my iPhone 4 and my iPad2.  I am running Windows XP.
    I have tried everything I've seen suggested on various support communities, with no success.
    I have gotten used to having to find a windows workaround everytime Apple updates iTunes, and this time it is especially frustrating.  
    I don't have any solutions, and I am responding to all of these types of messages in hopes of finding something that will work for me.
    One person was able to work through it by deleting all of the previous iTunes backup files.  I'm trying that now.  4 hours into it, and it does not seem to be working......

    - Try another USB port.
    - Try on another computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • The backlight on my ipod touch 3rd generation will not come on, but everything works perfectly. I even used the advice given on the tech support page, and it still will not come on. HELP ME PLEASE.

    The backlight on my ipod touch 3rd generation will not come on, but everything else is working fine I even took the tech support advice by plugging it in and resetting it, but that didn't fix the issue either. I need help.

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

    Then:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what do i do?

    Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?

    Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.
