firmware 2.2 problem with old 30gb zune

[The Thinker]

I can't shutdown my zune but only standby it (holding pause button). Any help?

Thanks

P.s New desktop software doesn't play videos and music, any help?

I am wondering if you know how to shut the zune down if you dont then do the following:
Hold the down and back button at the same time for a few seconds.

as for your second question, what format are you trying to play?

[The Thinker]

Before this new firmware to shut my zune down I held only back button. Now I have to hold back and down button, I prefer the old method.
About my second question, I tried to play mp3 and avi. (the old software version played them succesfully)

Any idea?

Thanks!

You must be mistaken, the shutdown method has always been the same.
The zune software only supports(ted):
m3u,m4a,m4b,m4v,mp3,mp4,wma,wmv and zpl

Hence your mp3 should work unless you are trying to play a corrupted file. There was a multi extention support mod for the old software. Just wait around and youll probably see one for the new one aswell.

I bought my zune 1 years ago and believe me the shutdown method was different in my zune (only back button to shut the zune down)
and I though this method was the same for all the zune around :/
Now I can shut it down with "2 button method".
I hate the new firmware but everything is changing and I love to update my device.
Any idea how to install new themes? (I had moonlight theme in the old firmware, and I miss it)
About mp3 and videos, I don't have corrupt files and I'm gonna try to reinstall the zune desktop software and test it again.

Thanks!

Err.
Do u mean a theme for the firmware o.O?
Coz only the software had themes, and we offer them [Only registered and activated users can see links. ].

I mean theme for my zune firmware. I had moonlight theme in the old version, and other 2 themes installed by default.

In the new firmware there is nothing about themes.

There aren't any themes for the new firmware.
And you couldn't modify/add to the themes that came with the old one.

I have never heard of anyone shutting down the zune with only the back button. Sounds like it was a bug in your firmware so at this point there is no way of restoring that. Your zune is no more special than anyone elses now, sorry.

The background "themes" that you are talking about was specific to the old firmware. Once you upgraded those went away and there is only the one default under Settings - Display - Background. You can try searching the internet and see if there is something similar or someone may be able to make something for you that you like.

I remember the 3 themes in the old firmware. I also remember that you couldn't add more.
Themes aren't the same as just changing the background.
