This is a great replacement for the original usb cable and dongle if all you want to do is recharge your Creative Zen Vision:M. However, I have been unable get it to sync with any computer, and I've tried at least three.

I'm sure you are looking at this becasue you lost the little addapter for your vision M right? Dont want to pay 20+ buck for a replacement(if you can find one), well this is a great replacement. Charges and Syncs the Vision M. Nothing else to say, for less than 2 bucks how can you go wrong? Plus as soon as you get this thing the adapter will probly show up.

For my Zen Vision:M 30 GB, this cable charges and syncs with my WinXP laptop, so I haven't experienced the problems some others mention. But, I've also synced before with the original dongle and haven't tried using this cable after a clean install, so I can't say much about that. So far, it works great!

I gave it 4/5 stars b/c there's no A/V out port and no place to plug in the wall adapter like there is on the original dongle from Creative. But I guess that's OK, considering this cable was <$1 :).

Cable charges from some computers, but not all, and DOES NOT transfer any data nor is it recognized as a device by any computer I have tried. I have the Zen Vision M 60gb. The packaging says it's for a Zen Vision M.

i suppose its a good product, but dont expect it to charge your iphone 4.

i emailed them, they sent me a 2nd one..... didnt work either.

Plugged it into my old ipod nano and it worked.

Good thing I only paid less than two dollars for this cord. It doesn't work with recent technology, and you have to go searching for a driver.

Recently for my plane trip I bought a Brook Stone 92-Hour Rechargeable Battery. The adapter that came with my ZVM didn't charge properly with the brook stone battery. This Creative ZVM USB DATA sync cable charges my ZVM perfectly now! I can also sync music/movies with this cable without any problems. I highly recommend this cable if you have a zen vision m.

Charges just fine but pc won't read player therefore I am unable to transfer songs onto the player. Main reason for buying the damn thing. oh well...

I also purchased this product in case I loose the dongle(could happen so easily as it gets loose with time.Which developer thought up the idea of this ridicolous "in between" bit anyway,especially as replacement dongles don't seem to be available anywhere???)
I connected the Charge & "Sync" Cable -it does the job of charging off the computer fine, but it DOES NOT transfer data (main reason why I bought it).If anyone can explain exactly how this works,please do, I quite happily would want to be proven wrong ;-)

I thought my player wasn't recognizing Linux, but when I got on my windows computer, my vision m just turns on when it's plugged in but the arrows that signify it's transferring data won't come on and the computer doesn't recognize that anything is there. I wish there was a replacement for the original cable that came with it!
