Zen V Plus 2GB needs reset when I disconnect it from U

It seems to happen at random. I have already tried reinstalling the firmware, and it did nothing to help the problem.

UPDATE: This only happens when it charges fully.

Zen v plus 2GB free

<font face="Courier New" size="4" color="#ff3399">My zen v plus 2GB frooze. I reset it and when I turn it back on it freezes agin with in a couple of seconds. wut can i do 2 fix it's

This happened to me on my zen v plus 4GB.
I fixed it by resetting and then starting in recovery mode and choosing the "clean up" option. To do this, reset your zen through the pinhole. Then hold down the play button while turning the player on. When you see the creative logo on the screen, release the play button.
A recovery mode menu should then appear. Choose "clean up". That's what worked for me. "Clean up" doesn't delete anything from your player, but the format option will. Also, definitely don't choose "reload firmware" unless you have a copy of the firmware on your computer!

Problem with my brand new mp3 player Zen Stone Plus 2GB ( with built in speaker )

Hi .
I have purchased the following Zen Stone Plus 2GB with built in speaker on 24.06.2008.
From day one, it had a charging problem . Initial charging it'snever go beyond 87%.
After using it for 2 days, at the time of recharging , I found my player won`t get dectected in my PC .
I took the set to the vendor for a checkup . He tried to solve it by resetting , formating etc. But he could only able to to format it's sacrificing its 50% of its allocated space.
My vendor then changed the set with a brand new one, againts that faulty one .
Now the new one worked well for 3 - 4 days , but it is now totally dead .
But the set did not give any indication before it become completely dead.
A few dust particles inside the LCD screen was also observed. I can`t understand how come dust particles can enter inside
a player which is sealed box pack .
Next issue is with the battery which CREATIVE promised of giving a backup of approx 20 hrs of continious playback , which with minimal scuffling and with minimal settings lasted for 0 hrs approx ( 50% less than promised ).
Another thing that i must state is the problem of FM Reception . It is simply terrible . In the same area where my mobile's FM reception is fine , Zen Stone's FM failed to give any reception .
I came to know about Zen Stone Plus from of my friend , who is using Zen Stone Plus GB without any problem for long time.
Pls tell me what to do now, since my player is compleately out of order now , and pls suggest me something regarding the issue of battery backup , FM reception ... etc.
Now i am in a total mess . I just dont know what to do with the set that is few days old .
Pls help urgently .
Waiting for any valued suggestion .
Bye ...

Zen V Plus 2gb - Space prob

Hello guys,
Saturday I bought a Zen V Plus 2gb and I installed the software, loaded my Zen and tried to fill it with music.
But suddenly (by about 800mb ~ 80 songs) my Zen froze. I used the reset button and tried to fill it again. My 80 songs were still on it. But my computer didn't recognized it anymore. So I formated my Zen and I upgraded it with new firmware.
Then I filled it again - and it froze again at 800mb and my pc couldn't recognize it anymore, too.
I don't think that it is normal. What can I do? My Zen got 2gb free space but I only can use about 2/5 of it because it freezes. There is no notification like "The disc space is full", it just freezes and I have to format my Zen to use it again.
Without formating I can't fill it with my pc or with the pc of my father. So it can't be a problem of a computer. Even the record function doesn't work. Is my Zen damaged, or is it normal that I can use only 800mb of my 2gb Zen?!
I hope that someone could help me and I excuse me for my bad English :-)
Bye,
Lumpi

The st?8GB Zen V Plus I?bought also had this same problem. It would allow me to add?only about 7GB of music before it would freeze and even cleaning up the links from the recovery mode menu would cause a freeze. I called Creative and told them I had read that someone else in this message board?wrote about?the same problem - a "faulty" flash dri've. Creative said they hadn't heard about it and recommended that I return it to where I bought it from and simply replace it. That's what I did and my 2nd 8GB V Plus has been working great.

Creative Zen Stone Plus 2GB vs. Zen V plus

Hi. I recently had my Zen Micro just freeze and die after 8 months. I lost ,600 songs. I am now interested in purchasing a flash mp3 for working out and commuting. I've heard good things aobut the Zen Stone Plus and the Zen V plus. Can anybody give me any adivice on deciding between the two? Thanks!

Why do applications (Illustrator, Pages, Mail) launch so slowly with spinning ball (about a minute to 90 seconds) when Mac is connected to our LAN, but when I disconnected Mac from the LAN, those applications launch instantly and function normally?

I hope I'm submitting this properly, I apologize if this irritates anyone because of improper etiquette. Why do applications (Illustrator, Pages, Mail) launch so slowly with spinning ball (about a minute to 90 seconds) when Mac is connected to our LAN, but when I disconnected Mac from the LAN, those applications launch instantly and function normally? This is a condition which seemed to start just recently and abruptly. These applications reside on, and are launched from the startup drive, not from a network drive. Also, we have a NAS drive on the LAN that we connect to that also takes a minute or two to mount, when it used to (before this problem) mount on the desktop in a matter of about 5 seconds. We have three identical Mac Pros on the LAN, and they all have this problem when launching and using the above mentioned applications. When I physically unplug the network cable from the Mac, all applications launch instantly and function normally. I know very little about networks, so I can't begin to test or change any setting pertaining to our network - if that is where the problem lies. The only recent change to our network situation is that we lost or our internet and phone service due to massive flooding here in Minot, North Dakota (our ISP tells us the communication lines are under water and shorting out). But shouldn't our LAN still function even though we have lost our connection to the outside world? Thanks so much, in advance, for helping me solve this problem. Sheldon.

Hi there.
A slow LAN can have many things so its going slow.
1) is your lan 1gbit speed? (full duplex)
2) are the macs also 1Gbit speed? (full duplex)
3) does your nas has a firewall? (so you can see what the mac asking there)
4) on the macs is the firewall on? (does the programms can pass the fw?)
5) how big is the nas and how many files/dirctorys are on the nas? (big folders speeds down )
many questions, but sometimes there is a solution.

Zen stone plus 2gb god **bleep** error

ok i have the 2gb zen stone plus and my problem is it's a.not being recognised by my computer b. it does nothing to play music store files etc c.when it's chargd i turn it on but all i get is the creative logo and nothing else but the small blue light that is supposed to flash on and of stays on fully instead of flashing on and off. does anyone have any ideas to resolve this problem? preferably knowing how to format my player.

So the player will not turn on correctly at all? Have you tried it on another PC to see if it's recognised there, and so you could format it and/or update the firmware. Has the player been working correctly until now, or did you just purchase it's

BIG problem with zen v plus 2gb mp3 player HE

i just brought my zen v plus today for 83 gbp i was scrolling through the radio channels and it decides to freeze on me i cant take it back because it was at abu dhabi airport any know how to sort the problem out? contact me on +44792328937 or post on here. thankyou

Hey. Have you tried resetting the player. Under the power switch, there is a tiny hole. Use a pin or paperclip to gently push in. The player should turn off, and rebuild its library when turned on again. You should also upgrade your firmware, available here. Just click on support, and go to downloads.

Queries about Zen Stone Plus 2GB with built in speaker .

Hi ,
This one goes out to all friends who have?used Zen Stone Plus with built in speaker for some time ...
As stated in the box pack of giving a standby time of 20hrs continious playback ...
What is the approx backup time it offers or rather it should offer on minimal scuffling and minimum change of settings of the player?
Reply soon .
Byeee .

I haven't tested it off yet as I always charge it after one bar of the battery indicator has gone. But thought I try to use it'suntil it's completely flat this time. After listening to 4. albums and minimal playing in the menu the battery indicator still says full.

ITunes opens when I disconnect iPhone from computer... WHY?!

Ever since the 3.1 update (I believe), whenever I disconnect my iPhone from my computer, iTunes opens... Is this Apple telling me I HAVE to have iTunes open at all times on my computer, and if I don't, they're going to open it for me? It's quite annoying really, and I can't figure out how to make it stop opening each time I disconnect phone from computer.
Anyone else experiencing this problem?

AHHHH! This has been happening to me for a while now. it's REALLy annoying. iTunes pops up for a second when I unplug my phone and then it hides itself in the dock. I wouldn't care, except that I've got limited RAM and use a lot of Adobe programs...and iTunes is a bit of a memory hog.
Wonder if it's a bug or a "feature," though i'm not sure what the feature would be. Please let me know if there is a way to fix this. I've gone thorugh all the options without success

I need opinions on the Zen V Plus 2GB MP3 Video Pla

Im thinking about getting one for my birthday. Any opinons?

Bacon, You should read some of the posts about connectivity issues before you invest in this. I'm having a huge problem that seeminly can't be solved, and if you start looking through forum posts over the last week you'll see A LOT of people are having the same problem. In my case, the Zen worked great for about 6 weeks; then, all of a sudden, halfway through ripping a CD the software stopped recognizing the player. The player says it's docked; the computer says the players connected, but the software to run the thing says it's NOT connected, although it clearly is. I've tried everything under the sun; I tried the advice listed on this website; I tried the advice of the technicians at Creative; nothing works, and I'm taking my player back to the store today after work. I really liked it for the first six weeks I had it, but now it's useless and I'm not alone in that. Just read the forums.....there are a lot of us having this same problem.

Zen Stone Plus 2GB -- Unresponsive

I have had my Stone for a couple months now, and just recently it has been giving me problems. On Friday I was using it in the car and turned it off while stopping in a store. When I returned and tried to play it, the Creative symbol came on, followed by the Zen Plus screen and then went blank. I then thought that it just needed a charge and brought it home. After leaving it in my computer for a day, I took it out and found it was still doing the same thing. I tried charging it again but that didnt work either. When it was plugged into my computer it showed a full 3 bars, followed by a lightning bolt. The next time I tried, I found that not only has it become unresponsi've (no lights, or screens), the computer is not recognizing it.
I hope this does not mean the end for my MP3, because I have enjoyed it up to this point. Thanks.

Hi,
Try attaching the player to the computer. While it is connected use a paperclick (or straightened staple) to click the reset switch.
Hope this hel
ps.
John
