Zen Vision M: 30GB//Player gets stuck @ "ZEN vision M" lo

Alright, this player loads, but it freezes at the "ZEN Vision M" logo (as I said in the subject). I tried formatting it, and all those other options on the boot menu, except for updating the firmware (I can't, since I do not own Windows Media Center anymore). The warranty is past it's date, and I am not sure what else to do. Any suggestions, because I do not feel like going out and buying a new one. I'd like to send it somewhere to get it fixed but I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't be able to do that.

Zen Vision:M 30GB Player Prob

The problem is that my Zen Vision:M 30GB Player is stuck in recovery mode. I turned it on the other day with no previous problems, and now it only goes to recovery mode. The player is detected when I plug it in, but it does not leave recovery mode.
I have tried:
) Cleaning Up
2) Formatting
3) Rebooting many times
4) Reloading firmware
All to no avail. When I try to reload the firmware on my computer by using the MP3 Player recovery tool it says "Upgrade Failed" at the end. I even tried downloading the firmware and upgrading it manually, but it only ended in the same outcome.
My firmware is v.62.02_0.0.23?
Any help is much appreciated.

I Need Help With My Zen Vision M 30GB Player ASAP

Tonight i had started deleting of my music folders on my creative zen vision m 30gb player and as it was doing that i accidently disconnected the usb cable from the player. After that the player was froze on the docking mode and i hit the reset button with a paper clip. Then after that for some strange reason my computer does not detect my zen vision m player as being connected to the computer. the docked screen appears on my player but the arrows keep spinning and my pc keeps saying found new hardware mtp device and does nothing but repeat that over and over again. I run windows xp pro service pack 2 with windows media player installed. I really need help asap to resolve this issue and have my pc reconize it normal again where i can access my music folders and playlists again.

The core problem is related to Microsoft Windows Media . To resolve the issue, you need to uninstall MWM v from the Add/Remove Programs. Then it will rollback to MWM v9. Unplug the player from the USB port. Reinstall the supplied software from Creative if you need too. Reboot, plug the device into the USB port. Reinstall the device driver for the MP3 player. Reload the latest firmware. The file can be downloaded at

I tunes player gets stuck at the end of the song

When I play albums from external drive library sometimes a song gets stuck at the end and keeps looping at the last a second or two, and doesnt go to the next song. If I restart iTunes it will play OK. It happened more than a dozen of times.
What is the problem and how to fix that. Its annoying to restart the iTunes all the time.
thanks,

Presnently experiencing this 'last second' glitch downlaoding songs from a CD. The first CD transferred okay. The second CD will not import beyond the last second of any – first, second, middle, last – selected song. FORCE QUIT , eject CD, and reinserting the CD does not change the issue.

Creative vision M 30GB - Rebuilding get st

I configured the video size?of my zen while I was watching somthing and the?zen?got stucked. so I press the reset safety button like?I used to did?several times before to fix it. Only this time I get the rebuilding message and the green bar goes up untill the end and it stucked there with full green bar and "Rebuilding..." massage for hours instead of return to the main menu like it used to do.
I tried to re-reset it a few times already and I got the same problem.
I tried the "MP3 Player Recovery Tool" program but it says: "No supported device connected". The computer doesnt recognize that I connect the player to the computer (I tried it with other computers as well).
Does anyone know what to do and how? Its really important. :/

I guess there is some problem with WMP on my own computer because I can't see WMP of any kind at the add/remove program even WITH the show all updates checked on.
So I tried to reinstall WMP in order to have the option to delete it and now I can see it finally at the add/remove program. The problem is that even when I do remove it, it says: "Windows Media Player rollback is complete." But I can still see it at the add/remove program even after restart. Because of that, I can't delete?"Windows Media Format runtime."
Never the less, as I said before - I already tried that at a few other computers which I DID uninstall wmp completely and still got the same problem: "Your player is not connected."
I bought this device at diffrent country more than 2 years ago. I don't think I still got any warranty, right? :/
Even if I did open the creative zen, how this would help to my problem of setting the frimware? I mean, I can't install the frimware by opening the zen, right?
Is it really necessary to send it to fix just because I can't make the computer to recognize it's
Oh and one more thing - when I'm connecting the zen and try to locate it through my computer, it says that this device have 50GB! When I'm clicking it I see an empty driver and no file can be copy into there.
Why is it says 50 GB instead of my 30 GB and where is all of the files I had there? Maybe that's why I can't install the frimware?

DVD Player gets stuck on some discs

I'm not sure how to solve this, right now I'm just watching the DVDs on the TV (no problems on the TV)
Some discs in a few Star Trek series I bought do not work on the computer. When I put them in, they start in the middle of the disc and play. The rotating rainbow wait cursor is active the whole time. I can't do anything with the DVD -- I can't stop, pause, menu, etc. The only way to stop is force quit.
I've tried verifying and repairing permissions.
I think it has something to do with the fact that DVDs save the last played location so that when you put them in the computer they start from that point, and it's stuck there. But these were brand new, unopened packages and I know nothing about how these DVDs are made.
I've tried letting it play to the end but once it gets there it starts from the beginning again or just goes black and I still can't do anything. It's the most recent version of DVD player that I'm using.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Usually you get a dialog asking if you want to resume from where you started off, or play from the beginning if it was played on the machine before. If you aren't, it might be hiding behind your player window. Try to reduce its size to see if it is hiding. If you've never played those discs on your computer before from any other vendor, and this a machine you bought from Apple, dust might have gotten on the lense in the drive to cause this problem. Take it in for service in that event.

E66 Music Player gets stuck and end of some tracks

Hi,
I'm trying to use my E66 as a music player when I work out, but it gets to the end of some (but bizarrely not all) tracks and in the last 5 or 6 seconds will start looping the same short (.5sec) piece of a track, and will continue to do that after the time has hit 0 and not move on to the next song. Some tracks seem to be ok, but others don't. The player and the phone haven't crashed - I can move to the next track by clicking the skip track button, or just pausing and playing again. The music is stores on a MicroSD, mostly in MP3 format if that helps anyone diagnose the problem. It's driving me nuts - can anyone help??!

Zen Vision M 30GB is stuck in Recovery Mode

Hi, I have a Zen Vision M 30GB that is stuck in Recovery Mode. I have tried ' Cleaning ', ' Formatting ' and ' Reload Firmware ' but none of my 3 computers in which it was previously used recognise the device. The computers have Win Xp Home, Win xP Pro and Win 7 Pro, 64-bit. I could get it to connect once to my Win 7 and I set the firmware down to .4 ( I think), as I have read that latest Firmware .20 does not recognise some of the new batteries with 400 mAh and 700mAh batteries. I have tried the MP3 Recovery Tool, Creative Wizard tool but none work. Would appreciate any suggestion. I have read extensi'vely the postings about Zen Vision M in the ABIT (anythingbutipod) Forums, but no luck in re-loading the firmware. TIA, MPM

I had installed .4. and in the Recovery Mode, it dispalys v0.0.6. I have Creative Zen Vision M Media Explorer installed in both, my Xp Home desktop and Xp Pro ( not 64-bit) in my laptop. I will check which version of WMP is installed in my Xp systems.
On many occasions, all 3 computers (including Win & Pro 64-bit) signalled ' Un-recognised USB Device many times but now nothing happens and I can operate the touch pad of the Zen even when it is connected to the computers !!

Zen Vision M 30Gb Battery Prob

My zen vision m 30gb player can not hold battery charge. The battery when charged fully will drain out without usage. When charged fully and in use, the charge will last for only 2 to 5 minutes instead of the 5 to 0 hours it use to last. Can any one help me with this problem please? The firmware I am using is v .62.02_0.0.23 and my operating system is windows XP professional with service patch 3. I have done clean-up and reboot, the only thing I have not done is reformatting the player.

Zen Vision M 30gb Prob

I have a relati'vely new Zen Vision M 30gb player, which as of today stopped working.
It will not turn on, will not charge or interface with the computer. When plugged into the computer a blue light flashes at the top of the player, and the same occurs when attempting to turn on. I have tried recovery mode to no avail and the resets do naught.
Can anyone help me with this problem?

No helping me. I just got mine about 5 weeks ago and its been working great. I charged it overnight last night to take to the gym and it didn't work. So I though that maybe the outlet I charged it on was popped or something. I verified that it worked. I plugged it in again and I have the blue light, but I just chekced and the battery meter barely had a line, and that was after 7 hours. I unplugged it and it wouldn't turn on. Any idea. I am currently charging it now and there is a blue light again. It just doesn;t seem to hold a charge

Zen vision M 30GB blank white screen

I have scanned the forum for a smiliar problem but I need more help.
My Zen vision M, 30GB player is a 2004 model, my Operating system is Windows Vista, 32-bit. I'm not sure what firmware I have on my player. As of last week, I have only a blank white screen; I have backed up all my contents and dowloaded the recovery tool with no result.
After contacting Customer service, they sent me to the forum to look for help or buy a new unit...just want to make sure there is no other recourse I can pursue.

A white screen can not be repaired it must be replaced. It is a hardware issue not software. You can do it yourself. Purchase another screen & replace it. I have done this many times.

Zan Vision:M 30GB connection issu

My computer died. So, I am installing my Zen Vision:M 30GB player onto my brothers computer. I have failed to find the installation disk for my player. So, I downloaded the "update"/software. This is a windows 98 computer. Every time I go to install it, it says that I don't have a player connected, even if I do. I checked in the device manager, and it lists the player, but says there is no driver for it.
Where can I get this driver?
Or what do I do to resolve the issue?

Formatting the player should correct it.. Format>Cleanup>Reboot.
