Zen Xtra problem with latest firmw

Hi everyone. I've tried searching for this but I can't find the answer.
I've recently upgraded my Zen Xtra 60gb to the latest firmware on the Creative Labs downloads page (2.0.03). Re-copied all my music back onto it and some of the albums which were fine before now play out of order.
All my music is correctly tagged with track number information and when I view the files using the new Zen Explorer addin the tracks are all present with the track number prefixed by the filename. But on some albums when I right click and choose properties there is no track number stored.
How can I fix this? Is it the way I transfered my music onto the player (I just copied the folders using explorer to the 'My Music' folder on the Zen)? Or is this a 'feature' designed to get me to change my mp3 player?

I'm not sure why some files lost thier tag info. But I'll tell you this, adding tag information through Media Scource does not wirte to the actual file.
And when you export files from Media Source, you have configure it a certain way to add the tag info to the files while its exporting.
Zen Explorer may be the sameway, so check that.
Theres a program called Tag&Rename, it can correctly Tag mp3 in batch. I think the free version is like a 4 or 30 trial but it should be long enough just to get your job done.

  • Zen Xtra problem with MUSICMATCH

    Hey everyone!
    Just got a Zen Xtra 40g and it seems to be great EXCEPT<EM> </EM>I can not get it to work with my Musicmatch. When I plug it in and start my MMJB it seems to be working but when I try to transfer songs or "snyc" my library it says "Device reported an error" Anyone else have this problem? The software that is provided ( Mediasource) with the player SUCKS! Doesnt work at all....any help?

    Try updating your Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) from Microsoft website. The filename name is MDAC_TYP.EXE.
    If the difficulty persists, you can uninstall MediaSource via Add/Remove Programs Wizard in Control Panel, delete the MediaSource folder in C:\Program Files\Creative.
    After which, download the latest MediaSource for your Jukebox from www.nomadworld.com.
    Here is what you will need to do to update your Jukebox:
    ) Go to www.nomadworld.com and select downloads and drivers.
    2) From the next page select "Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra" and your version of Windows
    3) On the next page you will need to download three files:
    ) Creative NOMAD? Jukebox Driver Update version .23.00
    2) Creative MediaSource Software Update version 2.03.29
    3) NOMAD Jukebox Pack (version .0.8) for Creative MediaSource
    4) Install the driver first, after which, connect the player to the computer.
    5) After the driver had successfully been installed, install the MediaSource application follow by the Nomad Jukebox Pack.

  • Zen xtra- problems with the wh

    I have a 40gb zen xtra. The wheel has always given me a bit of a problem but moreso recently. Often when I click it to select an artist (or anything, it happens randomly, but frequently) it doesnt perform that function but instead pauses the song thats currently playing. If I press it enough times, eventually it will work, sometimes it changes the song if i press it too many times. This has happened for a long time but now is happening more frequently.
    Also, and this just started happening, never has before, when i try to scroll up or down by holding it, it will stop and I'll have to release it and push it back up or down in order to continue.
    Anyone else have these problems and is there a solution?Message Edited by Wolfe on 02-07-200706:2 PM

  • Zen Xtra -- Problems with downloading mu

    Hi!
    i'm having problems with loading audio files into the player
    My audio files are on Real Player, and i used the "sniffer" to find them. No problem.
    They are in the order that i want them to be in, when i burn a cd (or, in this case, when i load 'em into the player).
    I highlited 'em, then clicked the Transport. The problem is that they don't appear on the right-hand side in the same order; they're in reverse or random order!
    How can i keep the original order? Also, how can i create a playlist containing the tracks?
    Is there any way that i can "re-order" the items?
    Thank you, Norm<SPAN><SPAN class=date_text>2-22-2005<SPAN class=time_text>09:29 PM

  • Creative ZEN MX problems with charging battery

    /Creative ZEN MX problems with charging batteryHi!
    I've bought Creative Zen MX player a couple months ago. First thing I noticed when I plug in it into my computer was that battery after 3 hours was not full, what is more computer disconnected with it couple times;/
    After weeks or two when I tried to charge it i Went where I bought it and they said after some examination that it really didn't work
    They've sent it to the service. I had t wait for the return two months!!! and at the end they said that that tiny usb wire was damaged not mp3.
    OK . The battery was fully charged maybe on 5 attempts ;/
    There is no problem in my computer because I tried it on several other and it did not work ;/ ?Please, help me
    Where is the problem?
    ?Why this player simply disconnect with my PC?

    I was given this as a gift. I charged it for 8hrs when i got it and it showed fully charged. I have been trying to give it a full charge over the last 2 days once on a power adapter plugged into the wall the other through the USB port on my laptop .each for about 8hrs each. Using different cables. I remove the player and it shows full battery (never gives the plug icon though)and within 30 minutes of play music, I get the low battery warning. it was purchased on 0/6/200. nAlso it will not power on while charging.My original ZEN was able to play music when charging this one says DOCKED and will not repond to the power button being presses.

  • Problems with latest version of Muse

    I'd like to report some problems with latest version of Muse. Its actually all related with scroll effect.
    1. In previous version I had a group of rectangles and when I added to them  motion (initial motion: 0 everywhere, final motion: 0 everywhere) they where sliding nicely down during scrolling my page, and it happened only in y line (horizontally). Now its moving also on the right and left, when I am changing size of window. Other thing is that in firefox this group of rectangles is pinned to bottom of window.
    2.  I have footer that I want to be always pinned to the bottom of window. The footer is a group of objects: rectangle + one png file with hyperlink, and one text with hyperlink - and of course it worked perfectly in previous version, but now finally when I export the page I have only the rectangle without hyperlink on the bottom of the page and the rest is missing.
    I hope I explained it clearly? I did my best :-)

    I have a same problem like no.2.
    Finally, I fixed it.
    First, You have to ungroup the footer objecs.
    Second, Group again that.
    Then export your site.
    Please try this!
    I hope this will be of some help.

  • Zen Extra -problem with "add to Play " but

    Hi
    I have a creative Zen Xtra, bought it just a week ago, and liked it a lot, (Except the size ...)
    but i think i am having a problem with it. If I have to create a play list, while I am playing songs how to do it ?
    Lets say i am playing song aa from album AA
    i click on AA , and the select song aa and click on Play now it starts playing but now i want to add it to playlist , then i click on aa and in the menu that comes up i click on "Add to Play" but as soon as i click on the "black roller while) to select "add to play" I can see the selection on the previous menu (song aa ) moves to next line..
    Same thing happens if I have to add Album AA to play list, the cursor on the previous manu shifts one position below,
    And the song/alblum is never added to the play list.
    Do i have to do it only using PC ?
    that sucks ..
    let me know

    Basically whenever you make a playlist, it includes whatever is in your "selected music". So let's say you want to add an album to an existing playlist. Go into your media library, add your playlist ("Add to play"). Then add the album you want from the media library (also doing the "add to play" option). When you go into the "selected music" section, click in on the scroll wheel and "save as playlist"

  • Zen Xtra Problem, Need H

    I can't get my Zen Xtra to turn on except when I've got it plugged into the AC Adapter. When it's on, it always has the icon saying that it's on AC power, and that it's not charging. With the battery in, or with the battery out, it runs the same way.
    The battery should not be dead, it's not been used really all that much, and it's only 6 months old. Is my problem likely a big one? I'm really worried that this thing is not going to work at all anymore, anyone have any idea of what could be wrong?

    You can try the advice here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net, at your OWN RISK.

  • Hard Drive Of Zen Xtra problem... help me !

    After exactly 3months and 3 days the Zen Xtra went haywire. Exactly how ? How Should I explain it... I guess I should start by describing what happend. A few days ago , I was sitting down listening to my Zen when I heard this poping sound ... I sniffed the zen , and it smelled like burned ... capacitors. Then when I moved it a bit , there was this rattling sound . There was 2 diffrent sounds , thus created by two diffrent broken parts ?
    Right after the poping sound the thing shut down ... I tried several times to turn it on , yet when I did ... there was a screen saying : Rescue Mode. Then upon trying to format all ... It responded with : HardDisk Problem. What Should I do ? I am pretty angry at Creative , exploding capacitors ? yeah... I want an explanation , Creative Labs... Due to timezone constraints I cannot call you. And one more thing : Please explain what could of happend.

    To all you mods out there : any idea why ? Cause the replacement 40$ + some other amounts ) could have the same effect ? I think it was dangerous , cause the popping sound , was really loud... really really loud.

  • Creative Zen Xtra - Issues with file transfers

    Hi, I've had my Zen Xtra for about 4 or 5 months now. It's been fine up until recently. When I start Nomad Explorer, it would only allow me to transfer maybe 3 or 4 albums before producing an error message along the lines of "This operation cannot continue due to an unknown error". Gradually, the number of albums would decrease until, last night it wouldn't even let me transfer a single file.
    So I restarted my computer which normally helps, but when I plugged in the player this time nothing happened. The screen on the player lit up but instead of displaying the little icon that shows it's plugged in, nothing happened. In Nomad Explorer it merely shows "Not Connected" and in Media Source it doesn't even show up.
    I deleted and reinstalled all of the drivers, software and that hasn't helped. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Thanks for any help, Matt.

    Have you tried a disk cleanup? See the FAQ Part post.
    These file transfer issues are indicati've of USB problems, but there's a link in the FAQ Part post with lots of information about troubleshooting connection problems.

  • Zen Touch: problem with touch pad and formatt

    Hi guys!
    I have a Zen Touch 20gb but I'm experiencing big problems with my touch pad: it really doesn't work fine, precision is almost none, to poit the desired voice in any menu I have to work hard. If the menu is longer it is almost impossible to navigate it with precision. I can't move of a single position, it jumps at least two... Is it a common problem or should I take it to be checked up?
    2nd problem:
    I was trying to format the player's HD. Instructions said press play botton and contemporarly reset hole.
    But nothing happens. When I release the system reboots.
    Any idea?
    Thanx!
    Gp

    Please be patient with the touch pad. Reading these boards, I think a lot of people are not really understanding how the touch pad works and assuming it's defecti've and returning the Touch. First, set the sensitivity to where it's best for you. If you can't move only one line at a time, you may have it set too sensiti've. Second, use your index finger, not your thumb. Then, practice moving around. For me, it was really easy to move rapidly through the choices or to move just one line at a time. But moving at medium speed always tripped me up, until I figured out the technique of repeatedly stroking the touch pad through the slow zone to move several lines at a time, just like you were using a scroll wheel.
