you need to transfer jb3 files with the creative jukebox playcenter, which is found from the acommpaning cdrom that comes with the jb3

umm, make sure you have the latest driver(s)

from that error message it sounds like you don't

Mike

you HAVE to install creative's driver for the JB3.....they are pre-installed on windows and you can't find them using the driver wizard

I definitely disagree here.  xNJB only supports usb 1.1 transfers.  If you get the PC transferring working right, it can work with firewire, needless to say, MUCH faster  ;)

But every other audio application, definitely leaps and bounds better than PC.

Just my opinion, of course!  :)
