When I plug this MP3 into my computer, it doesn't find it, I have Windows XP and I'm not sure if it's just because it needs Win 98 or something, so is there a way for the computer to read it?
Sorry this ain't a solution but the loading screen won't go away..so my comp. can't find it .. therefore i CAN'T format it....
so we basically have a similar problem!

Hi lcharlingen3... Downloading Music to your MP3 Player
1...You must download and install Windows Media Player 11 on your computer. NOTE...Some older MP3 players will not work with Windows Media Player 11 or Windows 7 with Windows Media Player 11. If this happens to you, then you will have to uninstall Windows Media Player 11 and install Windows Media Player 10. 2...After you have downloaded and installed Media Player on your computer. 3...Open Media Player on your computer. 4...Install all your music into Media Player that you want to install on your MP3 player. 5...Plug in your MP3 player to the computer using your Data/Sync cord, be sure that Windows Media Player is on. 6...Media player should recognize the MP3 player and sync with it. 7...After it is sync'ed with the computer,you can add the music you have installed into Windows Media Player to your MP3 Player. Please take time to rate me thumbs up.
Hi, newer operating systems from windows 98 do not require a driver for a mp3 player, since you just plug it in and it will work, if its not working test with another pc, if it doesn't work on any pc, then your mp3 player may be faulty.
check for up dates to the software for your mp3 and also make sure you have the right software for the make and model of the computer meaning is it a xp, vista or windows 98 .
windows xp should detect new hardware auotmatically. you could delete the software and remove the hard ware for your mp-3 player and try to reinstall it.
What kind of computer and what O/S ( windows, linux, 98, XP, ?) are you using? What make and model of MP3 player. To connect your MP3 player to your computer you need the right cable and the right drivers for the computer. Drivers are the translator program that lets your computer talk to the MP3 player. If they cant understand each other, no files will flow. Make sure you have the drivers for the MP3 player installed on your system and you have the right operating system installed in your computer. Good luck....Rob
Make sure you have the latest version of Windows Media Player. XP has all the right drivers but the iRiver needs to synchronise with Media Player inorder to transfer music onto the player using the sync function. Get Media Player 10 or higher then plug the iRiver into the computer.
You have to make sure that you have service pack 2 install in your computer...and also i would recommend you to get the latest windows media player upgrade...The upgrade should contains the driver you need for your device...
If you are using Windows 98, install the drivers. If you are using Windows XP, simply open windows media player. open the Sync tab at the top. and drag and drop on the right to your device. Hope this helps.
