Zicplay mp3 user manual Solved

Question

Hello!!
I've bought a Zicplay Mega Key 256 MB USB 2.0 MP3 player, but I don't have any instructions to make it work. I have a problem: why do I only have 10 seconds of music per track? Can you explain the different functions to me? Or can you provide me with a user manual? Thank you all.

Configuration: windows XP

if you go here  http://www.zicplay.com/fr/support_list.htm#manual_megakey  you will be able to get the user manual...and read it lol

Jean-Claude · Answer

Hello,
As I suspect a similarity between the functions of a Megakey MP3 player and those of a Minikey, please download the following file from the aforementioned site:

ZP-MINI-U1 without FM-FR.doc

Everything is explained in detail there (it's outrageous that this document is not included in the boxes).

Good luck,

Jean-Claude

wayreth · Answer

it is more specifically on pages 18-19 of the document that you will find the appropriate information...

wally · Answer

Uh, I’m willing to help, but I can’t open the files??? It says error! I wanted to know if what we’re given is a rechargeable battery (which seems to be the case), and if so, can it be charged while left on the MP3??

dalanda · Answer

Hi everyone, I also received a Zycplay nanokey MP3 player for my birthday and I don't even know how to open it. Does it have a battery? A cell?
I have to say I'm not very tech-savvy...
Thanks in advance.

milli · Answer

I have a problem, in fact my 256MB minikey player only accepts, for example, 15 songs now, whereas before I used to put at least 60. It tells me that the memory is full even though I've removed everything each time it does that.

What happened?

Truncks66 · Answer

me too, I have the same problem but YOU HAVE STILL NOT ANSWERED OUR QUESTION AND THE USER MANUAL IS NOT EXPLAINED EITHER

Hello,
I bought a Zicplay Nanokey 512 MB MP3! I can charge it on a computer and that's what I did.
It seems charged but I can't turn it on by pressing "play" or "menu". I can only do it when it's plugged in! Is this normal?? How do we turn on the MP3?

Thank you in advance for your help!

agls · Answer

I am also looking for a solution to recharge this mp3 (Zicplay Trio). It shows the charging icon, but then there is no autonomy.
There is something strange in the options menu regarding charging, I didn't fully understand it, but it might be related.

Hi folks, I have a Zicplay Visio mp3 player and the battery only lasts 2 hours. Maybe it's because I can't turn off the backlight while I'm listening to music? Please tell me how to do it because I'm struggling right now.

Teca - Genève · Answer

Hello,

I bought 2 Zicplay Vizio MP3 players (4 Gb) and I'm having the same issues with charging the battery. I even bought a wall adapter for USB.
It seems that the MP3 needs to be switched ON and left to charge for 4 to 5 hours. I even left it charging all night and I have no indication that it is charged. After a few minutes of use, it turns off: no battery!!! Even though it supposedly has a battery life of 4.5 hours!!!

I don't understand anything anymore; if anyone really knows how to charge this thing, please let me know!
Thank you.

lu · Answer

Hello,
you need to switch it on (on the back of the player), and then enter the MP3 player menu, and after a few seconds, it starts recharging... P.S. If anyone knows how to turn off the screen, I'm all ears.

re.lem · Answer

Battery issues are unfortunately recurring with this MP3 player. If it's still under warranty (less than 1 year), it needs to be replaced. (I've done it twice...). These are low-quality players with questionable ergonomics... The only real advantage is its size and thickness...

Vero · Answer

Hello,
I have the same battery charging issue. I think I will report it to customer service. It is still under warranty. But I can't find the manual anymore. I have everything else: the box, the cable, and the headphones. Did you have a user manual in your box? I only have 3 loose sheets... I might have misplaced it.
Thank you for your help!

re.lem · Answer

I don't remember the manual... As for mine, I took it back to FNAC and they had no problem; they just replaced the player for me.
That said... it's a bad product; I'm in the US this week and I'm going to buy an iTouch...

véro · Answer

Thank you for your reply.  I will also report it, but since Fnac is far from my home...  Have a good trip!

cigale · Answer

Having gone through the same hassle, I'm giving you the procedure:
select MP3, press the mode button briefly twice, choose repeat and random, then press the mode button briefly. When you select the Intro mode, you only hear the first 10 seconds of each song.

stephanie · Answer

while listening to a song, press mode and then repeat then use the arrows to click on normal (even if you only see intro written, still use the arrows)

NINA · Answer

HELLO MY PROBLEM: when I press play it shows me: FILE ERROR, so I can't listen to my music. If someone can help me, that would be super cool. Thank you in advance.

re.lem · Answer

It is likely that your file is either not in the correct format or still protected by DRM.

If it's music purchased online, you first need to listen to it for a few seconds with Windows Media (to acquire the license), burn it to a CD, then "rip" it from the CD to your PC and finally sync your music player.

Good luck,
Rémy

Hello, I just bought a Zicplay mp3 player and I found a manual, but it doesn't explain how to recharge it when the battery is flat. Thanks for replying xD

re.lem · Answer

Welcome to the hell of zic play... to recharge it, you connect it to your PC and it charges itself (your PC must be turned on). Just know that sooner or later... your battery will give up the ghost and the battery life will be... at best, an hour...

Drie · Answer

Hi, I also have a Zicplay, the 8GB one, I got it for Christmas (so it's not cool to sell it...) and it already has battery problems, I have 2 or 3 hours of battery life, no more, and it's very complicated to charge, this time I had to leave it for more than a day for it to fully charge... But I see that all Zicplays have this problem. By the way, I also want to point out that sometimes you have to turn it on several times in a row for it to really light up... But anyway, my question wasn't really about that. I wanted to know if there is a sub-menu in the "music" menu, with music folders, for example like on an iPod or another mp3 player. Because, well, 8GB is nice, but if I have to search for the song manually, and since the shuffle feature works only when it wants to, which doesn't help me, it's quickly tiring, and I’m really starting to lose patience with this thing. Thanks, Drie.

Alice · Answer

Hello everyone, I see that I am not the only one having a problem with my zicplay (nanokey 1gb)... I would like to have a user manual (which, as everyone knows, is not included in the box). I searched the internet for this manual, but I cannot access the link that is provided. I look forward to your response. Thank you.

re.lem · Answer

There is no manual.... let's face it... the link on the website no longer exists... and anyway, don't regret anything, there was nothing interesting... it needs to be discovered step by step... or go return it and try to exchange it at the store where you bought it... you're not out of the woods yet...

aliceC · Answer

Actually, my computer doesn't recognize the zic play... I don't know where the problem comes from... it might be better if I return it...

Slido · Answer

Hello everyone,  Well, I came to the site to look for an answer and in the end, I found it myself.  Basically, for the battery issue, you need to go to options >> Battery charge >> select "start charge" and then turn off the MP3 with the "play" button.  So when you turn the MP3 back on, it is ready to be charged.   Have a good evening everyone, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask, I'll come back.  See you!

chropto · Answer

Hi missSy, for your problem, you must have set your mp3 to the intro playback function of your tracks; that's why you only have 10 seconds of playback per track.

Hello everyone Zicplay Trio 4 GB same loading problem! No battery life and no way to be sure it's charging! Plus, the menu is super slow and really not practical... I don’t have a solution because I sadly believe there isn’t one!! This product is crap!!

kas · Answer

Response to Drie The submenus are created by you on your computer at the time of transferring music. They then automatically appear on your MP3 player. But it's true that anyway, even with my subfolders, the menu is slow and it's very long to change the playlist!!!

praline · Answer

In fact, this product is really *****, you understand me! I can't even turn it on and we all have the same problem with charging... oh dear, technology these days! I think I'm going to change my MP3 player, that's it, and I advise you to do the same :S there you go, have a great day everyone!

I have a Zicplay MP3-WMA and I can't recharge it. I leave it connected to my computer for hours, but when I unplug it, it turns off showing low battery. Help me please!!!

re.lem · Answer

Hello Stephanie, if you read the comments left on this forum, you must have understood that the device has almost all the flaws... the battery is a nearly systematic problem that can only be resolved by changing the device.  What I advise you:  1/ if you just bought it, try to exchange it for another player where you purchased it 2/ If the previous option is not possible, use the warranty to have it replaced 3/ If neither solution is feasible... well, buy another player, a real one!!!   See you soon!!
