20 Most Recent Creative Labs ZEN Vision:M Digital Media Player - Page 9 Questions & Answers

What I would tell you to do is check your cord to see if it is a connection problem. After that I would ask you to check the driver on yout computer to see if it is working. You can go to the creative zen website and download the windows vista driver. This might be why the player is not being seen by vista. If vista finds your device, you need to download the firmware again. It is not that you dont have the latest firmware it is that your player is in need of a reflashing of the firmware. Just get the latest version and try again. That should fix the problem. It has worked on all creative zens that I have worked with personally. Thank you for using Fixya and hope this helps. ~WEBMASTER21

There could be a lot of possibilities at this point. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the creative software? how long have you owned the product and how long have you had this problem. There is a lot of troubleshooting that will need to be done so we can isolate the problem. Once I have more information I can assist you further.
Thank you,

Deleting Files,Pictures,etc from MP3 Player

Hook up your mp3 player to your computer
Go to your desktop and double left click on "My Computer"
When it opens you will see listing that says "Devices with Removal Storage" your mp3 player should be listed there.
Right click on your mp3 player, and a window will open, right click on "Open" and now your files/songs should be visable.
Hold the left click down and drag it across all the files/songs that you do not want this will hightlight the files/songs you do not want, release, right click and then click on "Delete"
Now you mp3 player should be clear of the files/songs you do not want.

Thank you for Using Fixya.
Please let me Know if you need any further Info.
Good Luck.

You have a defective battery, replace it, there is no great mystery here, this is the classic symptom of a defective battery.

Ok then its your Creative Vision M 30gb problem. go to the store and have them fix it.

go online

Try to format it, if it shows a hardware error, replace the hard drive or the zen.

change the battery

These problems sound to me like its time to format your hard drive. To format the hard drive, put your Zen into Recovery Mode. Put a paperclip in the reset hole and hold the on/off button in the "on" position. Then release the paperclip and continue to hold the on button until you see the screen change to Recovery Mode.

Select the Format option, then Reboot. If your Zen still isn't recognized by your computer, this likely means there is a chip failure on the motherboard. Click here for more troubleshooting advice.
