Concerning the new Zune software and those of us using the Zune Guest Hack

Dragod · 11-12-2007, 07:59 PM

Alright, everyone knows that the new software and firmware are being released tonight. And I was thinking that those of us who have been using the Zune Guest Hack from our Hacks and Mods section might want to take a precaution and sync everything you absolutely do not want to lose back on to your computer. I have quite a few videos that I have on my Zune, but not my computer that I'd like to keep, that I will be syncing to my computer.

What I was thinking is that with the new software update, the Zune Guest Hack may be ineffective in stopping us from shielding us from "Guest" status. I know I've reinstalled my Operating System, and I use the Guest Hack to stop me from losing my files.

So, my warning to those of us who have been relying on the guest hack: Sync everything to your computer if you do not want to lose it.

Just a little precaution. I'm not saying it will happen, but it's quite possible.

thanks for the warning

I read somewhere that the new zune software does not erase guest zunes anymore, guests simply do not exist. Pretty cool, but puts me out of a job

Dragod · 11-12-2007, 08:09 PM

Lol, still. It's still a precaution everyone should take.

sk8erfreak846 · 11-13-2007, 09:20 AM

yea with the new zune there is no guest!

Max · 11-13-2007, 12:56 PM

I have updated my zune and it had the guest hack it works nothing is deleted since Microsoft fully supports syncing on more then one computer.

Gregory · 11-13-2007, 04:11 PM

There is also the option in the zune software to always sync as a guest.

MasterMoe · 11-13-2007, 09:20 PM

SO does the guesthack work with the new firmware?

Cuz I can't sync wirelessly with it running on guest.

PickleMan · 11-15-2007, 08:21 AM

Yeah this is important to my brother and i, and if we cant sync wireless as a guest when im at his place and vice versa its not worth the headache IMHO

flytai45 · 11-18-2007, 11:24 AM

KornDogg · 11-24-2007, 10:53 PM

So i just got Zune on Black Friday.Has anyone tried the guest hack on the new software.I apologize if a am posting in the wrong section.

Max · 11-25-2007, 04:13 PM

You DON'Tneed the guest hack you can have more then one home computer. Read the things at zune.net it says it all there.

Sylor 0 · 12-02-2007, 07:02 PM

It's nice that they allow you to cancel zune-computer relationships with the new software, but kinda unfortunate that the work put into the guest hack has somewhat gone to waste.

Dosed · 12-04-2007, 11:02 AM

I hope there is a new Zune Guest Hack in the making. Does anybody know about this?

rodrima17 · 12-19-2007, 07:48 AM

What features sould a new Guest Hack add? I think you pretty much have all you need with the new Guest mode, plus you can link your Zune to more than one computer.

dungfountain · 12-23-2007, 08:09 PM

Yah I always use the guest mode - seems to work fine for me.
