It doesn't work the same


posted by sleepylibra on May 17, 2008


My ilo just recently started messing up, I have had for about a year now it has been working ok till now. My ilo will turn on but stay only on the ilo screen or searching files screen till the battery dies. When ever I connect to the computer all of my music files are there, but most of my voice and radio recording have dissappeared. I have figure out and successfully taken off music or recording that I don't want on my ilo. It only works for a little while correctly after I have removed it from the computer. I may turn it on two more times then it seems to go back to not working correctly. These problems occured before I started deleteing music off my ilo.
I have the same problem.

There are two ways to format an Mp3 player - one on the computer itself, and one in Windows Media Player. Both methods will end up erasing all the songs on the player, but the player will be "good as new" after that. Sometimes reformatting in this manner will override the player's native formatting and cause problems - this can be reversed in most cases by updating the player's firmware. Firmware upgrades are available from most manufacturers' websites.

WARNING: 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, double-click my computer, right click on icon of mp3 player and select format. This only applies to Windows-based computers.
You can also format the player in Windows Media Player itself:
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.
