When i connect my mp3 player to windows media player,a message pops up and says "Windows Media Player encountered a problem and needs to close"

I would suggest trying to install the latest version of windows media player,but if you are at work it may not be possible. Most companies try to block their employees from doing this at work. Thanks for using FixYa

what kind of mp3/phone is it

You have to update the firmware on that particular player to make it compatible with Windows Media Player 11. Grab the latest version of the Philips Device Manager from Philips website, install it, open it, and click the "Update" button. It will erase all your songs in the process, but then your player will be fixed, and you can move on.

Best advice is to get a different player. The firmware on this device is ultimately unstable. After months of different issues i replaced it with an ipod, though many others are more reliable than mymusix.

The songs you are trying to transfer are in the wrong format.

The instructions in these pages, which are largely links, pertain to Windows Media Player 10 and 11 only.

I love my mp3 player but it is soooo boring. i can't add music and i don't have any good songs. Someone please help me before i go off.

This player doesn't play well with WMP-11. Try reformatting inside Windows Media Player, but this may not work. Other methods you can try:
MyMusix's PD-6030:
If you have a Windows-based computer,
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,
Check the battery polarity. (+ and - must be in correct psoition)
Set the hold button to the unlock position.
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

If that fails,
go to www.mymusix.com to see if the latest software update will correct the problem

-Tha Mp3 Doctor

When you use an mp3 player on 2 different media players, it causes a format change when connecting to one or the other. Stick to one media player only.

I had the same thing happen to me when I installed the copy of windows media player that came with the player, I downloaded wmp10 off the internet and started again and then it worked.
