    Hi all, its my first time posting on here. I'm having some trouble with my Creative Zen Mp3 player. Basically I've partitioned my player by half to 16gb. I done the partition on my mac using the Disk Utility. The reason I've partitioned it is because the Creative Zen is windows based and I've only got a mac, so I halved the player so I could use it as a hard drive. I called the partitioned half 'For Mac' in the Disk Utility, and now I cant find the partition on the player! Does anyone know what I'm talking about, am I making sense!:confused: Any help would be great.:)

    Doesnt the zen have a disk partition utility built in to the menu on the player,settings etc, i see no reason to use a mac utility.I,m going by memory ,i think it has a button to go back to factory settings, but you,ll lose whatever photos,mp3s you have on it if you use the reset button.
    i had 2 zen players years ago.

    Actually yes it does, and I did that, but I thought by giving it a name in the Disk utility that I could find that half of the drive when plugged in. Now I can't find it? Any ideas?
