Zen V 1GB: PC say's no player connec

My player is connected to the usb port in the front of my pc, but I have tried two ports in the back also...the wire is fine, and the port works with other devices (i.e. the printer, and my digital camera) so I don't understand why the pc won't recognize that my Zen is connected. Any advise?

The first step would be the check Windows Device Manager to see if the player is recognized there. It will be under the USB Controllers section. If it is recognized there, chances are that the drivers did not pair up correctly with the player when it was first connected to the computer. You might be able to resolve it by selecting Update Driver in Device Manager.

Zen Touch latest Firmware Update...player not connec

I tried installing the latest Firmware update for my Zen Touch (released 2-09).
The player is connected and recognized by Windows and the Media Explorer. However, when I try to install the new Firmware it keeps saying "player not connected".
I tried d/l two different language packages cause I wasn't sure what counted - player language or operating system langauge. Anyway, that didn't make a difference.
So what do I do? I have no idea where to start. It's firmware for the correct device connected through Windows XP.
I have made a firmware update before, which worked fine. After that I updated the media explorer software.
Help is very much appreciated! Thank you in advance.

Perhaps it's worth making sure no software is using the player, so reboot the PC, and turn off the Creative Detector. Then try again.
Are you trying to upgrade to the .0.03 version?

I have a football game recorded on a DVD R disc that I was trying to view on my MacBook using DVD Player. The video comes onto the screen, but immediately freezes, and then disappears. An error message comes up saying that DVD player unexpectedly quit.

I have a football game recorded on a DVD+R disc that I was trying to view on my MacBook using DVD Player. The video comes onto the screen, but immediately freezes, and then disappears. An error message comes up saying that DVD player unexpectedly quit. My MacBook operating system is Mac OS X, version 10.5.8. DVD Player is App version 5.0.3, framework version 5.0.7.
However, the DVD+R works on both my Dad's and my brother's laptops. My Dad's laptop is an iBook G4 with Mac OS X operating system, version 10.3.9. The DVD Player is version 4.0. My brother's laptop is a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X operating system, version 10.7.2. The DVD Player is App version 5500.26.1 and framework version 5.5.0. The DVD+R plays fine on their laptops, but will not play on mine.

Lao Bo,
yes, you can locate and copy a file from your HD to a USB key using UNIX commands. If you know the exact name of the file which you’re trying to locate, try this:
find / -iname filename -print
This command will search your entire internal disk for the particular filename. If you know that it’s within a particular user account, then you can save search time with this variation:
find /Users/username -iname filename -print
Either variation of this command will print all files found which have the given filename. Presuming that you’re able to identify the correct file, you can copy it to a USB key using the command
cp -p filename_returned_by_find /Volumes/USB_volume
If you’re not sure which volume name your USB key has, this command will show you what the possibilities are:
ls /Volumes
Please let me know if you have any trouble with these commands.

I have had the same problem with firefox on facebook. It has happened for the last couple weeks. I can receive gifts under requests and every game I try crashes. I can usually read my homepage. this is getting really bad. I have cleared caches,downloaded what I am told to download to update, and cleared history and cookies and still happens , and have been told to get rid of firefox. what is the problem? and when I sent reports , nothing. and sent emails to all the games and told them and asked for help and never get responses. should I through the computer out the window, or delete you? I know they keep changing things on the games and that usually crashes stuff on mine, but all the time? this sucks. and I probably won't get a response from you either,but if this continues I will have to say, bye bye.It's ridiculous..before the crashes, it would take me over 2 hours to do a game and work on it. there was life before this and will be afterwards. it also happens on my regular email..not the crashing, but so slow and the download goes up and goes way down to almost nothing and keeps doing that.please help us all..thanks.

Can any one tell me how to install flash player on powerbookg4.i actully uninstall it to upgrade it but now i can not install new one.it always says get flash player for powerpc when i try to install it after downloading.it is 10.5.8 version

Flash Player version 10.1.102.64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users. However, this Flash version won't work for many videos on Facebook, YouTube and other sites. Adobe's latest version, 10.2.x or later, is only for Intel Macs. Adobe will not provide a newer Flash version for PPC Macs.
The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to Flash Player requiring an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I found a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

I definitely have put this under the wrong catergory but i don't care, I was wondering why everytime i click on a video to play it says: Windows media player has stopped working

Ok, so I made a video with Bandicam, and every time I click on it to play it (it is saved as an MP4), it just says: Windows Media Player has stopped working. Then it gives me two choices: Close the program OR look online for a solution. I REALLY want to
post these videos, but I can't. If anyone could help that would be great!

Hi juderocks14,
Please first take a check with the other Players and see if they could play the MP4 file normally. If it can't be played, which means it might be corrupted. You may ask at the Bandicam side, or save the files again.
If issue insists, take a try with the Troubleshooter (For Windows 7, 8 and 8.1):
Open the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter
Fix Windows Media Player video, and other media or library issues
Or you may try to turn Windows Features on or off to reset Windows Media Player:
Turn Windows features on or off (Before turn it on again, please remember to reboot first)
More reference:
What happens if I turn off Windows Media Player?
Best regards

I get a message that says Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation.

I use Articulate to create my player.html files. When I double click my player.html file I get a message that says Adobe Flash Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. Then it shows me the name of a swf file in my files that is trying to communicate with the player.html. Then is say s to let this application communicate with the internet , click settings but that doesnt seem to help. I've tried clicking on all the tabs that are under the settings window that opens up but the problem persists

This is from my Mac, but it's the SAME on Windows.
I'll post a windows screen shot as soon as I reboot my laptop.

I cannot load an app for Adobe Flash Player on my iPad. It says not supported on this equipment. Is that right? If so, is there a recommended sub that will satisfy that requirement? Some programs say "adobe flash player"

I cannot load an app for Adobe Flash Player on my iPad. It says "not supported" on this equipment. Is that right? If so, is there a recommended sub that will satisfy that requirement? Some programs specifically say "adobe flash player"

What App? From where?
You can only get Apps from the App Store. nowhere else. If you are trying to download form a website you cannot do it.
If you need Flash Support for websites, you can download a flash supporting browser from the App store.
Examples are:
Puffin
https://itunes.apple.com/en/app/puffin-web-browser/id406239138?mt=8
Photon

There may be others in the store.

Connection Detection! Zen Nano. It says it isn't connected... But it

I connected it to my USB, I have windows ME and I tried both USB ports. the Lcd displays a diagram showing it is connected but the Zen Nano Mwdia Explorer says it isn't! I download a driver but to no avail, a message popped up and said it could not find a specific file. it asked for my window ME disk.

Says my unity player needs updated but unity website says up to date

says my unity player needs updated but unity website says up to date

There may be an issue with the Firefox plugin checker. 
Please do the following:
#Close Firefox
#Open the application data folder and locate the Firefox data
#Locate and open your profile from the folder
#Rename the <code>pluginreg.data</code> file
#Open Firefox
Does this fix the issue?
If not, you can restore the old <code>pluginreg.dat</code> file by deleting the newly created file and renaming the old file back to <code>pluginreg.dat</code>

Charging Zen Stone 1GB Player via Laptop USB P

Greetings to the forum.
I tried to charge my new Zen Stone GB player via my laptop's USB port. Even though the charge indicator went solid, I got only about three minutes out of the player. I then repeated the process, and the player charged perfectly. I may have used a different port the secont time around. Are there differences between laptop USB ports?
In both charge attempts, I made sure "Standby" and "Hibernate" were disabled, and I did not use a USB hub.
Thanks for all help.
Craig

Using a different port may have been the solution. Laptop USB ports can be a little flakey when it comes to standards compliance. The USB ports on the back of the laptops are generally compliant to USB standards.

Zen micro plugged in, says 'player not connect

i looked at the faq,
but am not much of a computer head, and really didnt understand a word of it!
but um yeah its only the organiser that does this, the 'explorer' connects fine.

so how do i fix it's?

chole,
Which explorer are you referring to that works? Windows explorer or Zen Micro Media Explorer? What's your player current firmware version? More information would be better.
