How easy is it to use your place? I need a player that doesn't lose its place when you turn it off. Is this one?

Well I had mine shut off for two days. when I fired it up last night it started playing back the song right in the middle where it was when I had turned it off. It always starts playback where I left off and I have owned it for a week.

I have the 4gig and it does it too. The trick to fix that worked for me is shown on UTube, although it is annoying to have to do it all the time. Just look for Zen White screeen of Death on U-Tube. I found it hard to accurately understand how to do it without watching this video.It seems to also help to have the player in standard play mode before turning off, or I might be imagining things.

There is an option in the settings menu to have the player play from where it left off or to start from the beginning. It's up to you.

Beats me. I could not get this player to work for me. I would have sent back except cost more than worth. Sorry I can't help you

You can't spend $100 or less and get built-in Wi-Fi. That feature alone raises the price of the player $60 generally.Try to be more reasonable in your budget or what you want.

I have never sold one of my units on Amazon, but I did get some instructions with mine, but being a "man," I never looked at them. You did purchase the most advanced player that Sandisk ever turned out. It will take a 32 gig micro sd in the slot on the side. It will play music from anywhere you buy it. It has great features for audio books through your local library from Overdrive. It will play books from Audible without a problem. These players are getting more expensive because they are out of production and people are realizing their worth. There is one thing that I think I need to tell you. If the battery run out of juice you have to plug it in and just let it charge. Sometimes it doesn't want to come back in which case you have to play with it until it revives. Do throw it away. Hold the power button down for a long time. They sometimes if you just push the power button to "Unlock" it and then press the power button for 20 seconds it comes back. Remember these units are like Timex watches. You can kill it if you forget and go swimming in the ocean.

Yes, if you hit stop once or hit pause. Then turn off. I have had no problems with this player.

yes..... i love mine. this is the third one ive bought, both of my previous players were lost and stolen. The only feature that i find has any hinderances, is to configure a video to play on the player. The movie or video must be a certain format to play. a plus is tha fm radio, which a ipod does not have.

I'm glad you warned me. I notice there are firmware upgrades on their site. But why would I have to upgrade a brand new player? One of them said it was necessary to listen to audible books? I hope not. I may very well get back to you with questions. Thank you again!

I disagree about Creative Labs being "excellent player". I have had a CL Zen for a year now and I'm ready to replace it. The Zen locks up once a week. The controls seem to respond randomly when you press the main function key. I had a great offer for a Zune, but after reading all this crap (pro and con) I have decided to live with the Zen for another 6 months ...

I'm sorry, I can't give you an answer as I have not used the player in that fashion.

My unit has never done that. I know some players have a feature that will turn the unit off after a period of inactivity but that can be changed in the settings. I've never had this Blu-Ray player turn on by itself so I'm not sure about that part. Either there is a glitch in the player's computer.... or the machine is haunted. If so, call those ghost hunter guys. They won't accomplish anything but you'll get to be on television.

I haven't had that exact problem. My only suggestion is to update your player's firmware. The manual tells you how, but really you just connect the player to your internet router with a cable and turn it on. It updates itself and when it's done you can remove the cable. I believe some of the newer disks have new "features" that can confuse the older firmware.

The player has a pause button on it and you can pause as long as you like but if you hit the stop button and turn the machine off - hoping to resume it will go back to the beginning. No resume button.

I use my player for what it is, a DVD player and it works very well. I am not interested in downloading therefore I have absolutely no idea.

If you pause it then shut it off it will keep your place. Even after charging when it usually returns to the spot that says music you can always resume where you left off. It saves it. Hope this was helpful? I love it myself?

I have music, videos, audiobooks on them. (I bought two, for my two kids). These are nice units. It doesn't do everything, but as a player it is great. With the wifi, you could also stream from sites.
