Did you hack the ... ( 5 months ago by ThoughtsMedia)

Did you hack the Zune somehow, maybe the Asian character font hack? I'd say to hard reset the Zune (look up how to do that) and update it with the latest firmware update again. - Jason

Uninstall the 3.0 ... ( 3 months ago by ThoughtsMedia)

Uninstall the 3.0 firmware? No, not really - the best you could hope for is to do a hard reset which will restore your Zune to the original firmware it came with. Why would you want to get rid of 3.0 though? Is it giving you trouble? - Jason

Hey, I am trying to ... ( 3 months ago by RichardsADHD)

Hey, I am trying to update my Zune and when I go to Settings>Update it shows that I still have Version 2.3, and it says my device is "Up to Date"... Do you have any idea what's going on with it, and why I can't update to 3.0?

That's pretty ... ( 3 months ago by ThoughtsMedia)

That's pretty strange! Reboot your PC, and reboot your Zune. Then download the 3.0 software from the Zune web site. Install the 3.0 software, then dock your Zune and hopefully it will update your Zune... - Jason

1. Press and hold the back button 2. Press up until it reboots 3. Then start pressing and holding the centre "OK" button and pressing left on the control pad (you have to do step 3 when the screen goes blank but before the reboot process actually starts) - Jason

Sounds like it could be any number of issues - way too complex to trouble-shoot in YouTube comments. Call Zune tech support: 1-877-438-9863. - Jason

Love the video... ... ( 3 weeks ago by Rugerman205)

Love the video...I've got all the ZUNE desktop software updates and all that jazz! I'm just wondering when the update for the ZUNE 80/120 adding an Equalizer to the Music setting comes out? I love the ZUNE, even the Windows Mobile 6.1 on my Cellphone! *LMAO* So I'm certainly a PC person awating WINDOWS 7...but I can't figure out how MS missed the Equalizer Setting on the Current Gen models???

Somehow, the ... ( 3 weeks ago by ThoughtsMedia)

Somehow, the hardware on the new Zunes doesn't support an EQ, and doing it in software would kill the battery quick. So there's no EQ. - Jason

Yes, you do. Firmware updates over WiFi are risky things - there's a reason why even Apple has you dock the iPhone to get a new firmware update. - Jason
