Beleive it or not this is how i fixed my venturer digital audio player sounds bizarre but its 100 per cent how i did it ...
the story goes like this i have had my player for about 2 years and never had a problem with it until yesterday after putting some more music on it i turned pc off and went to plug it into my stereo... nothing worked ...got system error turned it off only for it to turn itself on again ... connected it back up to pc and it kept saying disk is unformatted but wouldnt let me format it (i should point out i had over 32 gb of music on it ...
after about two hours of frustration and reading forums talking to the advice centre who to be honest were as usual as a chocolate fire guard... (kept telling me to turn it off and on reset etc...) which none of it worked at all ... i got totally fed up with the fact i lost all my music folders .... i lost my temper ...
i literally unplugged it from pc and threw it at the wall ...
devastated the fact it no longer worked and i lost everything ...

after about 30 mins i decided to turn it on ( dont ask me why i did this )
to my surprise it turned on and the screen lit up venturer and then went to the main menu

i then plugged into pc and to my surprise everything worked ok

i have lost my music but luckily i backed a lot of it up on mp3 discs... ive actually lost about 10 gb but to be honest thats better than loosing everything

not sure if it will stay working or not but i shall keep you all updated right now i am re putting everything back on to my player

please note that it seems any music you install needs to be scanned first .. im not sure if it was a virus from paid for services or something else .. but it seems that swift shock did something to the player ..

i promise you all that this is a very true fact and im not making it up ..
i just hope it stays working

Sometimes formatting can delete key system files, and these files will have to be re-added. Go to the manufacturer's website and see if they have a repair or recovery tool that will let you add the missing files. sometimes a firmware upgrade will add the missing files, but sometimes it will not. What is your model # and manufacturer name?

How to put music on a gpx mp3 player?

Make sure your music files are in mp3 format, if you are trying to load wma's or some other format the player may not support it. You can also try going to my computer and finding the player, right click and then format the disk, but this will wipe everything off of the player

Iriver E10.....wont play songs

well it seems you deleted your songs but not the titles. weird huh but that happened to me too. so hook it up to your computer, go to " my computer", and then right the icon that is your device, and then click format and that should take care of that.

I cant even delete my music or put new music on...

Instead of deleting the songs you may need to format.

If you haven't tryed this follow these simple steps.

To format your device first click on "Start" then click on "My Computer" now look for your mp3 player, if it hasn't been change the names usually called "Removable Disk", once you've found that right-click on it then click on "Format".

Now you've formatted put songs on then try your mp3 player to see if the problems be fixed.

Good luck. Hope my solution was helpful.
