Hi you need to make sure you have charged the player, does it light up when charger is plugged in??
PC will not recognize the player unless it is powered up.

try restarting it by holding in the menu and center button. good luck!

u must order the exact same default battery
and dimantle it there is a video on youtube that
will guide you thru it type fix yp-u3

1. Get a USB wall charger. These are AC adapters that plug directly into the outlet. You then plug the USB from your MP3 into the port on the adapter.
2. Charge your MP3 player on the go. There are also charging kits that plug into the cigarette lighter or power plug in your car. These kits come with a DC power adapter that has a port on the end for you to plug in your MP3.
3. Acquire Apple iPod specific chargers. When you need to charge your iPod music player through an outlet, look for the Universal USB car charger or the Universal USB travel charger made specifically for Apple products.

Make sure that you have your player on a power strip or surge protector so that if you get a surge you wont fry your player.

u need a new cord for charging.u lost ur receipt so no problem u can buy it any electronic or computer market i hope.

You should have received a a cell phone like charger with your player or most likely it will charge through the same USB cable that you used to transfer your songs from your computer. If you have the USB cable plug it into your computer. There should be some kind of display bar that shows the player is being charged. I hope I have been helpful

Well it wont be compatible with the mp3. even if it does seem to fit into the slot where it charges you still wont get it to charge. also different chargers deliver a different ammount of energy to the device so it either wouldnt be enough or it would be too much. I hope this helps you solve your problem.

the power switch is fragile - if you break it then you cannot turn on the player. plugging in the charger will turn it on but only while the is power coming from the charger.
