[SOLVED] Wireless and Cable syncing issues

[praasch]

I just picked up a used 30 GB Zune this weekend. Finally got it sync'd with most of my music/movies, but having some problems.

I've got the 3.0 version of the software installed on my PC and version 3.1 on the Zune. Are there other drivers I should be installing for the Zune??? I'm using XP.

When syncing with the data cable, the software recognizes the Zune but it constantly tries syncing but disconnects, then reconnects and disconnects. It will sync a bit of info but them seemingly loses connection and tries restarting. Not sure if the cable or the connection point in the Zune is going bad.

So to avoid this problem, I tried setting up wireless syncing. I was able to get it set up on the Zune with my network. When I went to do the wireless syncing, it found my network and connected, but then hung up on "connecting to PC", timed out and lost connection. The desktop is wired to the router, not wirelessly connected.

Hoping for some help on getting the wireless figured out mainly.

Sorry for the long post, but just want to get these few things figured out. Other than that, I'm loving the Zune....now to just get some games on it tonight and I'll be set!

Thanks, Patrick

Have you tried reinstalling the drivers? Also, make sure you don't have LibUSB installed, that causes problems.

And try plugging into the usb ports on the back of your tower.

when i got home, i uninstalled the zune software, reinstalled and plugged into the usb port in the back of the pc instead of the front ones and have yet to have a problem with syncing or connection. the wireless sync is now working as well.

thanks!
