Zen Touch in Vista- Not working, don't know what to

I've looked around for over an hour and I still can't find a solution. I'm trying to install the software that my player came with onto a different computer that has Vista. I've read that there's a problem w/ that on Vista, but no where that tells me what exactly to do, or if there is anything to do at all. I read something about nati've drivers and firmware, but where would I even get that? I did go where you select your product, and then what type of system you have and look for firmware and applications. No firmware came up.. I have Vista 32 bit. Basically, I just want someone to tell me if I can use my Zen Touch in Vista right now or not. If I can, and there's something I have to do for it to work, what do I have to do?It seems like they would have a solution to it by now, especially since I paid about $300 for the mp3 player when I purchased it, and to find out it doesn't work in Vista would really piss me off. If anyone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.Message Edited by Tiffany3 on 09-2-200708:43 PM

I got it working... I had to instal the original cd on the XP machine and Windows Media player 0 too. apparently it was WMP0 that did the trick, I don't know why. Anyhow the new firmware installed and it now works on MY VISTA machine. I installed the newest applications for Vista and it I have problems using the software.. so I just use the drag and drop feature with windows explorer instead of the Creative MS 5 software. Oh, and I DID watch my language. I purposely put in symbols to blank out what the word I meant to say was. :smileytongue:

  • Zen Touch, LCD Display not working at all, but player is f

    So I'm on the bus, listening to my Zen Touch, it's working fine, the LCD is working fine. Everything is dandy. Few songs later, I pull it out of my pocket, the LCD is blank. But the player is still going. I can change songs, adjust volume, play all randomly etc etc, but I'm working blind, cause there is nothing on the display whatsoever.
    It was a dry day, so it wasnt moisture damage or anything. And I didnt drop it, or bang it. It went from working fine, to going in my pocket, to not working. Really strange.
    I'm sure its just defecti've, but I leave for a week long vacation in just under an hour (good timing eh? works fine for 8 months and then bam, 6 hours before I leave the country...ugh **bleep** karma), and I'm praying theres a simple fix I'm just missing. I already tried multiple restarts and resets, and I even charged it for a few hours, thinking the battery was just getting weak. But no dice. I doubt anyone can help me, but I figured it's worth at least a shot.Message Edited by myname on 0-24-2005 05:07 AM

    If it won't display anything at all, even after a reset, it's likely there is a hardware problem. You could connect the player to the PC and update the firmware, but I suspect it'll be the same after that, unfortunately.

  • Internet connection not working: don't know how to change network settings

    I have a Macbook Pro with an internet connection that normally works fine. However, in my apartment, we are provided with a cable modem that has only one ethernet cable hook-up. Since we needed atleast two ethernet connections for two computers, we bought a switch that we hooked into the cable modem to give us extra ethernet ports.
    Recently, while hooking up my ethernet cord to the switch, I have not been able to connect to the internet. Network Diagnostics tells me my Built-in Ethernet is working correctly, but Network Settings are at yellow, and my ISP, Internet and Server have all failed. I have followed all instructions to check my connections, and restart the modem, switch and computer many, many times but there is no problem with any of these things. The other computer connects fine on the switch and cable modem.
    Additionally, under Network in System Preferences, I am being shown that there is an IP address and Subnet mask, so I am assuming there is nothing wrong with the cord, modem or switch (which work fine on the other computer), but there is no Router number, which seems odd. If it helps narrow things down, I am also trying to connect to the internet via DHCP rather than PPPoE, which is what I normally use.
    I am guessing I must have accidentally changed something to do with my network settings and it is not adapting to the cable modem any longer. Unfortunately, I do not know how to do this, nor what to change it to if I had to. My landlady knows nothing about what kind of network settings I need to connect to the internet service provider. Other than calling Time Warner Cable (who provides the cable modem with ethernet hook-up)is there anything else I can do or should be considering in order to get my internet connection working?

  • My ipod touch states "ipod disabled" and don't know what to do or how to fix it

    ipod touch is stating "ipod disabled" in red on the screen and do not know how to fix it.  Forgot passcode

    If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode, or you do not have the syncing computer. place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore.  For recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Also, it is OK to restore from backup since the screen-lock passcode is NOT restored to the iPod.

  • I have an ipod touch 3rd generation and the whole touch screen is not working.

    I have a 32gb ipod which I bought for fifty dollars and when i bought it had a pretty baddly cracked screen but thing is it worked fine. Every part of the screen worked fine; it was as senstive where the screen was cracked as the areas of the screen that were not cracked. I dropped it a couple times from like two or three feet on two a hard wood floor about four times all it did was make the cracks on the screen a little worse. Then one day I dropped it from about a foot and now the whole touch screen is not working does anyone know why this is. They told me at the ipod store to get a new one would be 130 to trade mine in. But the thing is I very mechanically inclined and I am very good with electrionics; I was planing on buying the glass for fifty bucks and putting it on myself because I read how to do it and I am more then capapble of doing it. But now since the touch screen is now working; do I need a new screen along with a new glass? See the thing is because I think both those part cost 120 together. Which would not be worth me doing that when I can go to the ipod store and they would trade me a new one for 130 bucks. But the issue is, they told me at the ipod store they would have to look and see how damaged the ipod is to see if they will exchange it. My screen is severly cracked; also I have a dent that is a half inch long and 1/8th inch deep in the back of my ipod and its very scracthed up; do you thing an ipod store would exchange it in the condition it is in. Also has anybody had this problem before and I was wondering if it would be possible for me to take it apart and fix it my self without buying any new parts.

    If I were you, I would pay the $130 for a replacement. Then you can be sure that it has all the working parts it needs.

  • I have bought  three iPhone 6  one for me and one each for my two kids  we have just done the update iOS 8.01 now all phone  do not connect to service provider and touch id is not working ,  APPLE HELP !!!!

    i phones  updated iso 8.01 all three phones  will not connect to service provider and touch id
    will not work  APPLE HELP !!!!!!!!!
    anyone know  i fix as  i have spent over 2000 pound on three phones that won't work
    all three where working fine until the 8.01 update

    Apple just pulled the update because it is a major fubar! You will have to rollback your iPhone to the base iOS 8 using iTunes and Apple needs to seriously test its patches!
    Update:
    Simply connect your phone to iTunes and back up your data. Then, click the “Restore iPhone” button and follow the on-screen instructions. It’s a huge pain, but at least it’s better than having your shiny new iPhone turned into a big expensive iPod touch.

  • HT4623 I don't know what's happened but the media sound isn't working unless I have headphones in. Games, voice notes, music, radio, touch tones and lock tones aren't working and it's also starting to not charge properly as we'll now. What do I do ?

    I've tried resetting all settings and tried to alter the sound in settings. It plays ringtones and alarm works but no message alert tone or touch tone lock tone radio and when I try to turn the volume up by the buttons I just get the bell with no volume bar. I don't know what's going on it's annoying I don't wanna have to wear headphones all the time. How do I fix it ???

    Clean iPhone charging port very well with toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol. If still problem the replacement part is charging port assembly with flex cable, lower mic and home button flex connector, all a less than $10 single part. Apple handles this with replacement iPhone 4 for $149, make Genius reservation.

  • The Wi-Fi on My iPod Touch 4G is Not Working (See Description)

    The Wi-Fi on my iPod Touch 4G is not working. People were working on my wi-fi, and, since it showed three bars still, I thought it was working. So when I found out it wasn't working, I tried to fix it by myself by forgetting the wi-fi network. Now, when I try to log in, it says that my password is incorrect (even though I know it is right). I think it is not working because I forgot the wi-fi network while they were working on it. I don't know what to do and I would like Wi-Fi to work on my iPod again (and it is working on my computers and my iPad). Can anyone help me? Thanks:)

    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 the 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 make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • HT201406 my ipad touch screen is not working please give solution for it.

    i have connected ipad to itunes and done it restore seetings then also my touch is not working but
    when i connected ipad to i tunes inside functions are working properly but touch screen is not working what can i do

    If you have a screen protector on the iPad's screen, try removing it. If you don't or that doesn't help, and restoring the iPad to factory settings has not corrected the problem, then the iPad probably has a hardware problem and will need to be taken or sent to Apple for replacement.
