When I turn on my MP3 player it says "Incorrect format, reformat the player!" I've tried pluging it into the computer, rightclicking the icon and trying to reformat it, but it didn,t work. What am I supposed to do?

MP3 WMA MP-556 from ilo was formated. How can I re-load software so the MP3 will work again

My mp3 player will turn on but then when it's in the loading stage it will say error, back up music and reformat. I've tried saving music to it and I've tried to download music off of it and it won't let me do either. I've only had my mp3 player for 3 months.

To correct this error try the following.

1. Take out the battery
2. Blow inside the battery slot
3. Put the battery back in
4. Turn the player back on

Should be fine after this, worked for me. My player is a Curtis 1GB mp3 player. Hope this helps.

Plug the mp3 into your computer, open your "my computer" folder and click on the drive your mp3 is plugged into. right click the mp3 icon and click reformat. should fix it but it will get rid of anything on the mp3

transfer all song files to a different file on my computer. reformat removable disks. then try to transfer the music to the removable disk if it doesn't show as your mp3.

I agree, taking a poop on it seems effective, it worked for me.

Connect the USB, and run chkdsk on the drive and set it up to fix errors. If a file shows up with an error, that is likely the culprit to the problem.
If that doesn't work, try to back everything up and then reformat it (to FAT) and put everything back on.
