Creative Zen Mozaic question Can you download tunes from Itunes onto this MP3?
40592
I have the Zen Mosaic (the Wal-Mart version) and have been very pleased with it. This version has no radio or speaker but that really doesn't bother me. My concern is what happens when the Lithium Ion battery finally wears out. I have looked at the unit and can see no way to replace the battery. Many searchs on the web yielded no info about buying a "spare" battery for the Zen Mosaic. I just wonder if I will have to buy a new player when my Mosaic's battery dies. Does anyone know anything about this?

I don't think that iTunes works very well with non-Ipod MP3 players. You can use the iTunes software for Windows to convert to MP3 format but from what I have read the sound quality is not too good. I found this website that provides a good tutorial on iTunes.www.dynamicwebs.com.au/tutorials/iTunes-help.htm I hope this helps.

Thanks for the information. I was afraid that was the case. I have an older SanDisk player that has a replaceable battery but you have to buy the new battery and a special tool kit just to install it. And you are right, with prices dropping on these devices it is cheaper just to buy a new unit. Thanks again for the input. I think I will complain to Creative although it will probably do no good.

Yes, you have to buy a new one. Don't know why companies repeat that mistake... It happens with Creative, Sansa, and others. I think you can find the replacement, but is cheaper to buy a new one, because you have to pay the battery and the replacement by a qualified service deparment.My english is so bad, excuse me...

Yes. Just plug in the usb chord that comes with it and it will download to you computer as any other Mp3 would.

you CAN use your itunes card for your mp3. It will just take a little more effort. Once you purchase music on Itunes, burn it onto a regular audio disk, (one that will play in a stereo - not mp3), then reimport the disk into itunes as mp3 (see under itunes preferences, importing. Have fun with the tunes.

This player doesn't support shuffle and iTunes sync you have to covert iTunes to mp3. With Itunes you rent your music and it is protected. I believe that it will only work with non-protected music files, hence the MP3. I would suggest using a free iTunes to MP3 converter like Koyote or Fre:ac. This will solve your problem.

I don't know if it can be used with iTunes directly. I use my pedal with Express Scribe Software. You can put the song in Express Scribe and use it that way. I have done that with music. Express Scribe is a free software.

You and drop files in however for some reason or other you may have to install the driver that the Zen comes with to pull files out or rename. Overall simple mp3 player with all the bells and whistles, minus the accessories that he ipod has >< but still better then the ipod as a single product.

For iTunes music to play, you need an application to drive it. Since the USB drive doesn't have an OS, I don't see how you can do that. Personally I use an iPod instead just for this.

I don't know. I would ask iTunes support. They are really good about responding to questions.

itunes isn't compatible with most mp3 players...just ipod and a couple of others. I would suggest to download your music onto your player using windows media

I just bought my first apple product and talked to the sales person about that very thing. From what I understand you can only use itunes downloads on apple product. However, if you can make CDs from your itune files you can turn around and load them on your computer and put them on an MP3. I have every CD I every bought on my computer and put them all on my MP3. However, I can not recommend buying this product because mine never worked right. I can't turn up the volume enough to hear it well through headphones or speakers. I have bought one of these brand new and they are a good product but this one is reconditioned and it must not have been done right. :/

yes of course you can. On my computer I have media player. I create all my lists there and down load them to the mp3 I want. Each one is tweaked differently for what I am doing.

There may be other ways, but I'd simply burn a CD from iTunes and then rip it to create the MP3 files a copy them to the SD.

For Mac users, if you are iTunes users, you have to convert your music files into MP3 & WMA format songs, and then put them into the drive. &#65288;it won't sync to your itunes&#65289;

How did you upload the music from the Zen to the computer? Any special software required?

The answer to the guys question is no you have to convert the mp3 files to WAV which you could do for free online

You load iTunes on your computer which converts CD to MP3...when done simply sync with iTunes

If you can get the mp3 files you can put them on this player but you can't use iTunes to do so.
