Yeah, it happens to me on my 30 GB.  It's really frustrating, especially when I'm playing changing music at a party.  It happened to me so many times last Friday....

short version: problem occured to me today.

long version: i first noticed when i would play AFI's "the art of drowning" the last 5 sec of track one would freeze, and i'd have to restart my zune cuz it'd be unresponsive. the software plays it just fine, the device doesn't.

then today, i hit the back twice, while listening to a song, then found an album then song, and pressed the center button. Chaos. for 5-7 hours my zune was unresponsive. i'd check in between breaks at work, no signs of life. then it claimed it was out of batteries when i plugged it into my computer. depressing, really. i love my zune, but today, i wanted to chuck it out the window going 65 on the expressway.

Man, with the large amount of problems the Zune is having with FW3.0, I hope the main firmware being pushed to Zunes was corrupt or something on MS' servers.  I don't see how firmware this flaky could possibly make it out of QA...

Has anyone tried it on a 4, 8, or 16gb flash?  Couldn't the "bug" just be the hard drive catching up since you are pressing the buttons fast, since it goes back to working normally a few minutes after it freezes?  Not saying there is not a bug, just a thought.


This would be interesting to see.  It very well could be a hard drive spin-up/caching issue.  However, keep in mind that this method people are trying is only a method to reproduce it, but it does happen at other times too.  It mostly happens for me when I pick Shuffle All.

It has no effect for anyone so far, including myself.

Hello all,

I have experienced this issue several times.  In fact, I was just going to post this issue, but I found this thread.  Zune device software turned out to be a "micro-Windows" after 3.0 update, freezing and slow response, etc.  I restarted several times.  It did not help at all.  Still freezing. 

Additionally, the time slider does not work for a song.  It just freezes at 0:00 at one side and (-) whatever the length of the song at the right side even though the song is playing.  Could be related to the previous. 

PS: Thanks CHUCK2NORRIS!

That's not true at all.

I myself reported back and said that it seems to have cured that particular glitch.

I've only seen one issue crop up a couple times since doing so and it was doing it every few minutes before I did the total device recovery.
