I cant get my mp4 player to download music

Firstly, if your player is strictly an MP3 player, it will not play videos. MP3 is a music file format. The generic/umbrella term for video files is MP4 (MP4 is just one video format, but is not the only one).
To download files from your PC to your player, hook up the player to a USB port on your PC using the USB cable that came with the player. Once connected , the player will show up in Windows file explorer as a removable drive. Copy and paste the files you want to download on that removable drive using Windows file explorer or Windows Media Player or iTunes
.

Connect the player to your PC (desktop/laptop) from the USB port on the player to a USB port on your computer and transfer videos (MP4 files), music (MP3 files) and pictures (JPEG files) to the player.

The ITunes maybe be in MP4 file format.
MP3 players can only play music files in mp3 file format.
You can download mp3 music files from the Internet to your computer and then copy them to your MP3 player using the USB cable.
For your CD collection, you need to convert your CDs to mp3 music files onto your computer or download them from the Internet and then copy them to your MP3 player after you have connected the USB cable to the MP3 player and the computer.
You can do this using Windows Media player and Rip the CDs - Media Player will create a MP3 music file for each music track.

Donna,
I haven't opened the box yet but found the manual online. Here it is.

Within the first few pages it tells you to download the music to your computer, connect the USB cable to the unit, then drag the music files to the unit. To get the music files to your PC, you can download music from a CD to your PC using Windows Media Player, but there are probably other ways as well. I had a terrible time getting the music into an Android Tablet so I returned it. This seems easier to use. I'm not an expert either.

For help to get music into your PC, you can go to YouTube.com and search on downloading music to your PC. Good luck.

first connect your mp4 to your laptop with a usb cable. once it shows up on the laptop copy or cut and paste your music to the root folder of your mp4 or the music folder. after that is done disconect your mp4 from your laptop.

restart you mp4 and your music should now show up. enjoy your music

I used real player to get songs on my missil sd-2415 MP4 player. You need to use the driver disk it came with to get it to work. Once you've used the driver you should be able to just plug your player into the computer via the USB cord, open real player Version 11, compatible with Windows XP, although the driver says win 98, it worked fine with my Windows Xp. Nothing really comes up once thr driver has been downloaded, so don't get confused, just follow the driver install wizard and it should be fine. Then on Real player just click on removable disk or player not sure of the exact wording but it's removable somthing the just drag and drop or click to move music from your playlist onto the player.
I had to fiddle around with this player a bit because the instructions are VERY LIMITED! that's putting it mildy but hey it is what it is. This little player is quite neat once you figure out it's little quirks! Good luck!

all mp3 and MP4 players have a built in USB port for connecting it to your computer, connect a USB cable to your MP4 player and the other end of the able to your computer's available USB port, windows will recognise the drive and install it for you. all you need to do is to go to my COMPUTER and double click on your MP4 player drive to open the content of your drive
check to see that the drive is has foldes like MY MUSIC, you can use windows media player to sync music files in your library to your MP4 player.

Well i think maybe your usb cable might be loose or the mp4 player is damaged. I really want one though...

buy one that actualy works

go on limewire or itunes or where ever you go for music and download the songs that u want onto windos media player and select burn as an option on that page ,and an icon should pop up asking you if it is for an mp3 , click yes and it will complete your download
