Zen Touch - loose key-lock but

I bought my Zen Touch last month. When I received it, the key lock-button has already been loose. Now, it falls out of the hole all the time. I have to keep an eye on it to avoid losing it. It bothers me so bad. Does it happen to other Zen Touch ownners? How can I get it fix? I still have the warranty for it's

I have a Touch myself and, luckily, nothing like that happends with mine!
As said, you can contact customer support to see what can be done! Hopefully you'll be able to send it back in to repair or get a new one in return!

(Zen touch) Is there a way to do a file count for Nomad Explor

Hi. I just got my Zen Touch. It rocks, but I was wondering if there's a way to count how many files are actually in the NOMAD Explorer. Can anyone help? Thanks.

I'm sure my NJB3 tells me somewhere. Is there a place you can view the firmware version? I'm thinking it's around there somewhere, if it hasn't been removed from the Touch. I know that Notmad Explorer gives very clear details.
To save the tracks as a playlist, just queue them all up then hit the scroller and choose "save as playlist". Of course you can do a similar thing in the software by creating a playlist and then copying the tracks into it.

Zen touch connecting prob

I bought the zen touch yesterday and since then I have not succesfully been able to dock it to my computer. I followed all the instructions and have uninstalled/reinstalled several times. In device manager it says that the zen touch is working properly, but whenever I open nomad explorer the device blinks "docked" a couple times then goes back to the menu screen. I was wondering if anyone could help me?
Thanks

I wouldn't recommend installing software *after* the Zen is attached, this can cause other problems with the driver not being found by the player.
I would recommend to the original poster that you make sure you get the latest drivers, firmware, and MediaSource from Nomadworld.com downloads. Install this with the Zen *not* connected, then when all is done and the PC is rebooted connect the Zen.
If you're still having problems there's lots of advice here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net.

Nomad explorer and creative mediasource not detecting zen touch player. PLEASE HE

Hi, I got a new pc and I was going to install my Zen Touch mp3 player on my new pc but I could'nt find the installation cd so I followed the instructions on here and downloaded all the necessary? software, drivers, plug ins, and followed all the instructions. Once everything was downloaded and installed I plugged my mp3 player into my pc and the noise it makes came up and mtp media player pop up appeared. Windows media player accepts that my zen touch is plugged in but creative media source and nomad explorer is not detecting it's?My os is windows xp, I am using windows media player 9 as I was having trouble with windows media player . Could someone please help me? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If you've just upgraded to XP, you now have to upgrade your Zen as well as your Mediasource. First you've got to upgrade your Zen Touch firmware to version 2.0.05 or above. Look around on the Creative Support site and you'll find the download without too much trouble. Be warned that the firmware upgrade is permanent, and it will wipe out your Zen hard dri've contents, so say goodbye to all your music unless you want to back it all up to your PC first.
Then you've got to upgrade your Mediasource to v 3.30.2 or higher. Again, you can find the upgrade download on the Creative site. Then you've got to install Zen Touch Media Explorer v .30.04 or higher. Same thing -- easy to locate on the Creative site. Then you should be good to go!?Best,?John

Connecting zen touch to car stereo (no tape dec

i'd like to play music from my zen touch in my car, but i've a head unit with no tape deck.... is there some accessory/way i can get by without a tape adapter? thanks,
-matt

Most car decks don't have auxillary input with the two holes. The Aux. input is usually combined with the CD Changer option, an adapter is usually needed to convert the CD changer jack to an Aux. Jack.
Most likely if you are trying to do this with a stock deck, it might be impossible, but it doesn't hurt to try take a look and see if there is an Aux input.

Zen touch connection issues with Creative softw

I?ve updated my Zen touch to the play for sure drivers and since I?ve done this the creative software does not recognise when the ZT is connected (Nomad explorer). However windows media player and HMV digital do recognise the connection and allow me to sync songs to the payer. I?ve tried loading the ?Creative Software Suite for PlaysForSure-enabled Creative Zen Touch Players? update, but this doesn?t work as it won?t recognise my ZT as connected during the installation! I?m running WMP and IE7 on my computer and have already tried the registry change mentioned to solve connection issues but this doesn?t help either.
Any suggestions or anyone else having this issue?
Thanks

Sounds like an incompatibility with the card, which is surprising as NEC cards are usually no problem. There are various things to try as mentioned in the FAQ post (search on "connection problems") but I think you need to focus on making sure you have the latest drivers for the card, as well as the player itself.

Updated and smaller Zen Touch using Hitachi's newest C4k60 hard disk

The new Hitachi C4k60 hard disk is really small and is NOT inside the "actual" Zen Touch:
Zen Touch hard disk model (Hitachi): HTC424020F7AT00 (red it on a Zen Touch hard disk)
Hitachi C4k60 model: HTC426020G7CE00 (found it on Hitachi's website, that's the 20gb version, also available in 30gb)
Obviously, the 2 models aren't the same, and the new C4k60 is "much" smaller (physical size).
Anandtech's review of the Creative Zen Portable Media Center says that it uses a Hitachi C4k60 hard disk. So Creative are already using those new Hitachi hard disks for some of their products.
Is it possible that an updated version (smaller of course) of the Zen Touch using this new hard disk appears pretty soon? I really HOPE so...
I know that the Zen Touch isn't old, but other brands already have smaller 20gb mp3 players using Hitachi's new C4k60 hard disk, so I guess Creative is going to respond with an updated, smaller and even better looking Zen Touch (other improvements like a line-in, "standard removable dri've in windows" and EAX would be welcome to)!
Can someone confirm this, or give any details/information?
ThanksMessage Edited by Lazar on 2-27-2004 03:06 AM

I just saw the archos gmini xs200 in a local shop, had it in hands:
it's really a nice player, and it's so small for a 20gb one, but from different online reviews, true battery life is only about 8hours and battery isn't removable. This sucks !!!
Well, i'm goin to wait for a new Zen Touch firmware enablling driverless windows support or an updated gmini xs 200 with a better or removable battery...
Still no new high capacity portable mp3 for me YET, lol !Message Edited by Lazar on 2-28-2004 :23 PM

Zen Touch Orig. Power Adap

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement cord? I have a 40GB Zen Touch and love it, but somehow I can only one part of the power adapter. I have no clue where the second part could be, I have been traveling a bit so it could have been misplaced. Do you think it would be as simple as going to Radio Shack or somewhere? I couldn't find anything on the Creative website about replacement parts. Right now I am just using the USB connection to charge it, but this won't be possible when I travel in the future. Thank you very much for any help.
ps Is it worth it to buy a USB 2.0 card just for the faster file transfer rate? I have heard that it can be almost forty times faster!

yes a usb card is worth it if you are in the us go to www.newegg.com they are cheap also what part did you lose the part to the wall or the part to the zen

Zen touch locked

Can anyone help with a fix, my Zen touch 7 mnths old has just locked up. It has turned on but I just get a loud crackling noise out of the ear phones and it will not turn off. The battery meter is not displayed at all and the last track it was playing is displayed frozen on the screen. The re-set button doesn't fix the problem, the screen goes blank when the re-set is pressed but then it returns to the frozen track display.
I'm well annoyed, I go on hols in a week and a half and don't think it will be fixed in time if it has to go back.

I know you said that you tried resetting the player, but did you try from the recovery menu?
You get there by holding the play button down while pressing the reset button.
Let us know if that hel
ps.

Hmm, I sort of got the impretion that whenever he used that option(the reset option), it just appeared on the frozen screen. Maybe when he turns it on it takes him there too? :|Message Edited by E0Delta on 07-07-2006 04:05 PM

Zen Touch lock swi

I've just bought my daughter the Zen touch only a week ago, which worked OK, until now, when the lock switch at the top stopped responding and stays locked no matter what. Could there be, in the experience of the user community, some simple function we may have overlooked or is this be the black death of all Zen problems?

Sounds faulty to me...
You might try resetting it - press button on bottom left hand side with unbent paperclip - but probably best to contact Creative support (or whereever you bought it from) about getting a replacement...

Zen Touch locks

I have a 20 GB Zen Touch that I've had since January. I upgraded to the 2. firmware as I was waiting to use the subscription services. Anyways since this firmware upgrade, the touch has become about as stable as rollerblades on ice. The player will spontaneously lock up and the only way to get it working is to get a paperclip and press the reset button. I've done a disk cleanup on the player, reformatted the player. I've even reinstalled the firmware, and it doesn't fix a thing. It tends to crash more often on the subscription WMAs but it will also lock up on other nonprotected files regardless of format (WMA and MP3). Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Searched but didnt find answer: Zen Touch probl

I have a 20GB Zen Touch and randomly it just changes the mode to 'shuffle' without pressing the key and I lose my playlist, its reallly annoying :robotsad:
It was bought in 2005, end of March or begining of April.
Can I still send it back to Creative for it to be fixed or is there a thing I can do?
Been happening for ages.
I think I can send it back, right? Because my friend had an original black and white iPod (he bought it like 2 months after release) , send it back coz the wheel broke and he got a new one or a Video one
Thanks
Please reply :manhappy:

The firmware was successful. I just tried docking the player again. This time the computer didn't recognize the player. It seems to vary. Sometimes a message will open "Creative Zen Connected" or something like that.
But this time, nothing happened. I Opened WMP and it said "No player connected"? even though the player said "Docked" I have tried opening the player to view the files - which is an option that Vista gives when it does recognize the player - and waited about 5 minutes while it tried to open the files? - then it stopped responding. This has also happened with Real Player. If I try to sync, transfer or view the files - the program will stop responding.

I daughter's iPod touch is password locked and authorized to computer that doesn't exist anymore. i want to set it up on my iTunes but it won't recognize it because of the failed password attempts. what can i do?

My daughter's ipod touch is password locked and attached to a computer that doesnt exist anymore. i want to authorize it to my computer itunes account but itunes wont even read it due to the password failure. what can i do?

That's by design. The password is designed to protect the user's information and cannot be circumvented. You can restore it to "new" condition though, and sync it to your computer. The iPod Touch's content will be securely erased by doing this.
Refer to iOS: Unable to update or restore. Follow the instructions exactly as written.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.
