Detective Garda Johanna Doyle, who is attached to the Online Child Exploitation Unit, has sent the file to the DPP, a State solicitor told the court.
It was a “large and significant file” and the case was at stage one, the prosecution said.
Defence counsel Sharon Rossiter told the court there was consent to a four-week adjournment.
Mr Creaven, wearing a grey tracksuit and a mask, did not address the court, but spoke briefly to his barrister.
