I got a Nomad Zen Xtra about a month or two ago and suddenly one of the ears isn't working. It wasn't dropped or anything like that to cause it, it's just suddenly ceased working. When I swivel the headphone jack around in the socket the left ear comes on and off so it's definatly a problem with the socket. Both of my friends who have Zens (one has an Xtra, the other an NX) have had this problem. The one with the Xtra it's happened to twice, and now he's trading his in for a smaller capacity iPod, the other one it's happened to about 5 times and each time he's brought it back and they've given him a new one so he has to reload his library. I have a 60gb one and there's only 10gb free on it. I've spent a lot of time organising my music and sorting it all out on it and now that looks to be all down the drain. I was praying that this wouldn't happen but it has. What the fuck is with the Zen that it does this and why isn't there more outrage about it (like there was about the iPod battery)? I could fucking kill those fucks at creative right now, peddling their inferior machines as better alternatives to the iPod. ... And if any of you fucking bastards work for creative, don't think i won't hunt you down and slice your necks up into little pieces because I will. Cunts. |

can you possibly back it up to a hard drive? |
||||||||

160gb drive for 70 USD ending in 10 minutes. back it up, send it for warranty, and send angry furious letters to creative to see if you can milk some free merchandise off them. |

that's not the problem, i have 130gb of music on my server harddrives, but it's just that if i get something done about it (if i CAN - since i got it "slightly" second hand - the guy had gotten credit at a creative store after bringing a soundsystem back and so just bought lots of Zens with the credit and flogged them off on boards.ie, so in fact it was completely new and unopened) i'll have to re-load all the music on which takes a LONG time over a 10mbit network and a lot of effort. a lot of work has already gone into this fucking thing and now it's all down the fucking drain. CUNTISH FUCKS |

doesn't matter whether it's over USB2 or firewire (which none of my computers have), the data still has to travel across a 10mbit network... *frowns* |

Glancing at the topic header I thought you were infuriated by an artsy woman who was into zen. |
||||||||

I was likewise deceived |

That same thing happened to my friend's Creative Nomad whatever mp3 player. He was also, understandably, very pissed off. |

same here, what a disappointment. |

i-pods are adorable. |

and same here. why isn't there more outrage about this? |
||||||||

maybe we should demand a re-post. |
||||||||
|

we should, dammit!! |

ok, you start. |

you should see the nomadnesss forums, loads od folk seeting about the Zen and the headphone jack problem. I've got one and emailed them jst to see what I can do if it happens to me and they said that if it happens within a year I can get it fixed or possibly replaced. It doesnt seem to effect everybody, but it does effect a large number.. here's hoping I dont get the same... |

I thought maybe the poster was a follower of traditional old school zen, blasting a nu-school progressive for her "creative" zen. Some kind of factional dispute. I am kind of disappointed. |

I thought he was fucking a creative zen-cunt... |

A cunt that facilitates meditation and self-contemplation? That's some sweet action. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the cunt is creative in the sense that it utilizes zen to get into new and ever more exciting positions (plus.. she lets you "put it anywhere!") |

lol ps - i can scarcely believe that three separate artists employed |

HAHAHAHA! |

i don't think this is the response redrum was expecting when he began this ill-fated thread... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe no but it's lifted my spirits a little at least :D apparently if they refuse to fix it it's possible to take it apart and fit it manually soldering etc. ugh. but at least there's light at the end of the tunnel |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha that's gr8 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey if you do that, at least if you do that, you'll know the workmanship isnt shoddy and shouldnt fail again (assuming of course youre adequate with a soldering iron) |
