Can't get my mp3 player to work iwave

Just bought one and figured it out. On these mp3 players the default option when you turn them on is to go to the folder of files that are recorded using the microphone. hold the menu button down and you'll see a number of options. use the track skip buttons to navigate left and right and select the music option and press the menu button to select it. once you're in the music folder it will turn on to music. plug it in to usb and drag any .mp3 file to the folder in explorer and it should play. if your songs aren't playing make sure you convert them to .mp3 files before loading them.
Best,

Just bought the 1 gig mp3 player at marshall's for 9.99 (guess they're trying to get rid of them). Haven't read through the manual completely (not easy to figure out either), but I have figured out that even though it says on the box that it converts WMA files to mp3, it doesn't, and they'll be on the player but it won't read or play them. So I either use the transfer option on Windows Media Player to drag files to the device and then right click on the song and click properties to make sure it is an mp3 and not WMA, or just transfer songs using realplayer, which rips everything into mp3's. Instruction manual says it has fm radio but mine doesn't, and the hold button is reversed. Haven't figured out the A-B button yet. These are definitely cheap little things, but I've successfully loaded about 20 mp3's on it and it sounds surprisingly good. I bought it because I'm backpacking through Guatemala and if I lose it, no biggie, but wouldn'tve paid $20 for it. If you have advice or questions contact me, we'll try to figure it out.

we had the same problem with the one we bought for our younger son. Will take the itunes, but wont play them. We transfered songs from WIndows Media Player through the URGE sync, and they all play. If you still have any of the other songs you want on actual disks, rip them to the Win, Med. Player library then sync them (thats how we got that blasted Crazy Frog song on his player, so now we don't have to listen to it!!!)

Best we can figure, all of the itunes stuff comes up as mp4 something, and says its locked. Thats why we tried a different player.

GOOD LUCK!!!

I also purchased an iWave 1GB FLASH MP3 PLAYER from Marshalls. www.iWaveAudio.com is a useless site. If you want to see you for yourself, use "iwave" as the user ID and "iwave" for the password (no quotes). There is a support form you can try to fill out, which I did, but I'm not optimiistic that anyone will contact me.

I was able to download music and run the lousy utility software that came with it, but after turning it off, if won't turn on again. Nor does my PC recognize it when plugged in.

Pure garbage. I'm returning mine to Marshalls ASAP.

That's all the information I have. Good luck all!
