Turning the player on
1. Check the polarity of the battery plus (+) and minus (-), matching the indication in the battery compartiment
2. Switching the player on viewing next image, moving switch 2 towards the USB connector until the display shows up.
Are you using the cheap AAA batteries? If you are, that's your problem. Try getting some more expensive batteries or even better get some rechargeable. That's what I did with my RCA Pearl. Bought the batteries yesterday and it's still working on the same battery almost 24 hours later. hope this helps. Good luck my friend.
All u have to have is yahoo jukebox, thats the easiest way i think. Then just plug ur mp3 player into ur computer and it should pop up when u click the actions button on yahoo jukebox, then just drag the songs into the list and then hit "copy to portable device" and ur mp3 player should be listed there and then u can get the songs onto your player.
Make sure the SD card does not have a storage capacity greater than the internal memory of the Mp3 player, or the Mp3 player will not reocgnize it in many cases.
RCA TH1100 Series:
RCA TH1100 Series:
Remove and reinsert batteries - if that fails, go to RCA website for firmware upgrade - if that fails:
Try this: disconnect the player from the computer, turn it off, hold in the volume + button, and reconnect the player to the computer while holding the volume + button in. Keep holding the volume + button for an additional 5-50 seconds. Windows should eventually go into recovery mode and revive the player- it will pop up a window that says Found New Hardware Wizard.
If that fails, it's dead.

The following procedures will erase all songs on the player.
Check if the file system is NTFS. If yes ,format it to FAT or FAT32. - Connect player to computer, click my computer, right click on icon of mp3 player and select format.
You can also format the player in Windows Media Player tiself.
Connect your Mp3 player to the computer and open Windows Media Player. Click on the Sync tab. Pull down the drop down menu underneath the Sync tab by moving your cursor over the Sync tab and left clicking on the little black arrow underneath the Sync tab. Highlight "name of Mp3 player here 1GB" (wording may vary slightly), and then select "Format." - this should erase everything.

for any firm updates - the above procedures in some cases undo the original formatting on the player, and a firmware upgrade will be required to replace the Mp3 player's formatting.
