Oh my gosh. I don't believe it. I had to restart my computer because of a virus and i thought "no biggie, ill just put my important files on the zune". So I restart and here is irony for you. No, I didn't bring the virus from the zune to my PC. Well, sort of...You see, the virus is the new version of Zune firmware 3.0. It completely disables doing a quick registry hack and thus enabling drag and drop. You can VIEW your files but you can never sync because if you are ever syncing with the new firmware/software, which allows zune games, you will NOT BE ABLE TO SEE ANY OF THE FILES. Wow microsoft, touchee, way to bend me over and nail me.

I dont understand where to go to get this hack to work, I get all the way until it says:

Search for â€œPortableDeviceNameSpaceâ€. This should be contained in the Vid_####&Pid_####\########_-_########_-_########_-_########\Device Parameters within the above â€¦\USB\ The ##â€™s listed here will be numbers and letters specific to your Zune

Could someone help me? Thanks

Why do I keep losing all my songs or video data when I try to sync something new to my Zune 30gb. Do I have to keep EVERYTHING on my PC library in order to keep it on my Zune? I don't want to overload my PC with a bunch of stuff. I'd like to be able to just sync my songs/video/pics to the Zune, delete it, and keep going. But once I've removed it from the PC, if I sync anything new, the old stuff get deleted and I have to start all over again. What the hell am I doing wrong?

For all of you who are using Vista and can't get the hack to work at all (this has nothing to do with the copying/protected problems) make sure you change the registry values not only in ControlSet001 but also in ControlSet002, ControlSet003, and CurrentControlSet if you have all of them (I don't have a ControlSet002 but I assume it does exist). I had to change it in 001 and 003 for the hack to work.

Hope this helps those who can't get their player to show up at all!

you guys, you tried to show off, like you are some real masterminds, you lost to microsoft, you see, microsoft, unlike many other companies, does learn from it's mistakes as much as it can, although i hate microsoft, but you gotta give it to them, i looked almost everywhere for a new way to hack the zune with no luck, so we lost, they won.

AND AS ALWAYS, ENGLAND PREVAILS...

I did this hack on Vista a few months ago and it worked great! I had no trouble at all... until I updated the Zune firmware and the computer software to the new version. I checked to see if it was still there and it wasn't. I redid the hack and it still doesn't show. Any fix to this?

After the hack try starting the Zune software and transferring a large file. During transfer while it is synching close the Zune software which should leave the Zune player in synching mode allowing transfers. At least that's what I've read, going to try it out for sure tonight.
