so, this guy that I ehrrrr... know.... ya... this guy that I know recently got a JB3

But he cant for the life of him figure out how to transfer a wav to his PC... He installed the firewire card and the driver. What more is needed to transfer a file, and how do you do it? Sorry for the stupid questions

d00d, do a lil more research then, ummm, load creative disc in, BAM, plug into the comp, creative playcenter should pop up, put one side of the transfer screen on your pc music library, the other side should be the jb3, highlight a song or a set and once you click on it, the transfer buttons in the middle should allow you to transfer

i know there's not always a bunch of money hanging around when you're in high school, but i think it would save him on the head banging side of things. if i could send you a copy alex, i would.

Swampy · « **Reply #22 on:** March 19, 2004, 09:46:22 AM »

Ya, I would go that route, but as a highschooler, there are other things Id like to spend 20 bucks on... Thanks though for the suggestion. If I every get some cash I might check that out!

F.O.Bean · « **Reply #23 on:** March 19, 2004, 10:00:44 AM »

i might send him the creative disc if he behaves!!!;-)

I take it the refurbs don't come with the install disc since several people have had this problem. Unfortunately, the Playcentre software you can download is upgrade only - you need the original install (on the disc you didn't get).

I've had a few people download it from me (ftp)- you're welcome to do the same if you pm me. It's only about 27 MB zipped.

and then DO download and install the latest updates. It also put the nomad into Explorer, so you can access it as a drive on your system (I believe the new version of file manager adds this capability).

ya know, i've never had a problem with the playcenter or the file manager that came with the nomad. i've never tried notmad, maybe i'm missing out on something. but i guess if i've never had problems, why bother spending $20.

thats the way i look at it too, a 20% faster d/l isnt that big of a deal, hell, ive never used firewire before and its a dream come true!!!

4 mins for 3 hrs, hell yeah!!!

I swear by Notmad, and swear at Playcenter! The only thing I used Playcenter for was to put the custom startup image on.

i doubt i'll be loding up boot screen images. and i will use playcenter to sync up the time, but thats all. notmad is really a good product, for me. i love the fact that it open up an explorer window.

F.O.Bean · « **Reply #39 on:** March 25, 2004, 09:50:13 AM »

is that its only benefit, not knockin it man, but 20 bux for an explorer window really isnt worth it, to me!!!

all i do is plug my jb3 into the firewire and BAM, playcenter opens automatically, for me, thats as simple as it gets!!
