Product Description:

Nomad MuVo Helper is a small Status Bar application that detects the insertion of Creative Lab's Nomad Muvo (Original, USB 2.0, NX,TX,N200, V200), TravelSound MP3, Rhomba, and Zen Zeeon.

Features:
  • Opens iTunes automatically
  • Upon unmounting MuVo the helper will delete any hidden files that might interfere with playback of files copied from OS X or iTunes.
How to Install:

Drag the MuVo Helper out of this disk image and drop it into the Applications directory or in location from where you are allowed to execute applications.

Once you run the application the first time, it will auto-start from then on and show itself in the status bar.

The MuVo icon in the status bar will brighten when a MuVo is detected.

When you unmount the MuVo device, MoVo Helper detects this and delays the unmount operation until it cleans up the files.

Note: This action may result in a small delay before the device is unmounted.

What's new in this version:

MuVo Helper 1.4.8 has finally been released. It has been localized this with support for: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Swedish, German, and Italian. If there is another language you would like support for, and you can help us with the translation, send me an email and we will send you the file with the text and list of words to translate for MuVo Helper 1.4.9, which has no time frame at this point. MuVo Helper 1.4.6 supports the following players: MuVo, MuVo USB 2.0, MuVo NX, MuVo TX, MuVo TX FM, MuVo N200, MuVo V200, MuVo Slim, TravelSound MP3, and the Zen Zeeon.

It turned out there were two ROM revisions of the MuVo TX, and we were able to resolve the problems with the player loading by testing with those devices. A special thanks goes out to Mark Randazzo for loaning us his MuVo V200 so that we could add support for it! Mark you ROCK, and as a special thanks, I am going to send you a Creative T-Shirt! Thanks Again!

If anyone has any of the MuVo^2 (Squared) type units, I would like to add support for these, but I have had trouble getting my hands on one. We would only need it for a few days to add support for your player. Please contact me if you have a player not listed here so that we can support it.

Requirements were bumped to OS X 10.2 or later. We believe that this new version will work on the new MacIntel systems, but we do not have a system to test it on. If you have access to a Muvo and one of the MacIntel systems, please test the software out and report back to us.

MuVo Helper Troubleshooting ReportDownloading this application - Version: 1.4.8, 12/28/2006 04:52PM PST

I too am unable to download this application. I get a 404 error as well. I tried dragging the icon into Applications (I'm on an Imac Core 2 Duo running OSX 10.4.7) but only got the gif of the icon. How do you do this?

I've been trying to download the update for 3 weeks now at least with a 404 error - I love this little program - can I send money so you can get back up?

MuVo Helper CommentaryDoesn't work with macintel - Version: 1.4.8, 6/1/2006 09:35PM PST

I just tried muvo helper 1.4.8 on my duo imac. The software appears to load fine, but it doesn't detect the muvo when I plug it in. I tried it when muvo helper was running as an installed app and when it was running as a mounted disk with no success. My muvo is full of hidden files so I can't load anything else. Is there a way to manually delete those files?
By the way I have a 1gb muvo tx fm.
