    @foryouiwill90 Go to the Zune Web site, download the latest version of the desktop software, and connect your Zune…

    @MidgetMan14xxEClipse If you don’t have a backup of your music, I think you’re probably screwed…backups are CRITICAL for digital content. :-(

    Get an AC power brick with a USB port connector on it, then you can charge any USB device.

    I was experiencing a black screen for my Zune 80GB. I’ve had this device less than 2 years. I read that you should try to reset your firmware by pressing back and up, followed by back, pad, and play. I did so and I now have step 1 that says connect your player, step 2 says update the firmware. I called Zune help and they walked me through the process. To no avail, they informed me that we have exhausted our troubleshooting processes and that it was a harddrive issue.

    I can understand why you’re frustrated, but things do break – even iPods. Nothing lasts forever. :-)

    They proceeding to inform me of my options for service ($159 for a refurbished Zune 80GB with a 90 day warranty.) I think this is bogus. The hard drive fails in less than 2 years? Not to mention I haven’t used my Zune in a week and I turn it on this morning to a black screen. I’m considering buying an iPod. No wonder Zune are so cheap.

    for anyone who has an older zune do not download the newest firmware! its a death trap! its microsofts way of saying “buy a new zune now!”but if u already have u can fix it without taking it apart but u might end up loosing all ur music…u aft to have an older version of the zune player and update it with that…

    I hate zune players cuz one day i update it and all my music was damaged and not playable or downloadable on my comp! I spent about 300 dollars on music and im sitting here looking at an error and a bunch of damaged song that i cant get back. i called them and they said that they cant refund me any of the money that i spent on all the song that i no longer am able to listen to! WTF! I currently use a sony walkman for a player and i have about 20 dollars of the songs back. Any advice or help!?!?
