Unable to download songs onto SD card

MP3 players can only play music files in mp3 file format. You need to convert your CDs to mp3 music files onto yourcomputer or download them from the Internet and then copy them to your MP3player.
You can do this using Windows Media player and Rip the CDs - Media Player willcreate a MP3 music file for each music track.

put the sd card in the laptop better to download that way, if you have an sd card slot on your laptop.I have the same mp3 player thats the way i do it.

Try the manual here http://www.retrevo.com/support/RCA-RD1028-MP3-Players-manual/id/288ag309/t/2/ or here http://safemanuals.com/user-guide-instructions-owner-manual/RCA/LYRA%20RD1072-_E. Besides the shuffle, there is some kind of program function as well.

When RCA first came out with the Lyra series the only way to get music onto the device was by using musicmatch jukebox that would convert your mp3 file to mpy before downloading it to the device. But now RCA has come out with a new firm ware update for these mp3 players that improved the players playback quality plus enabled it to use .WMA files. so first go to RCA support http://support.rcaaudiovideo.com/select.aspx?u=downloads and find your player and download the firmware upgrade and install to your player its very easy and instructions are at the same site. You can now convert your music to .wma or use the free Real player that will convert mp3 to wma at the kbps that you request before loading it on. If your music is all ready in wma format you can use windows media player to send the files to your player. One last thing the .wma files that you put on your Lyra player need to be at least 128kbps or higher enhanced playback quality of wma files (160 kbps to 256 kbps).

WMA files come in two formats DRM & non-DRM. Change your setting in Windows media player (Options - Copy Music) and re-rip the music CD. You can copy both versions but one will play but not the other.

no puedo reproducir mp4

Upgrade the player's firmware following the RCA's website instructions (goto support, RD1021, Software upgrades)

One thing to try would be to copy all the files off your CD ROM onto your C: drive, then run whatever .exe file you're trying to run from the CD itself

My suggestion is switching the file transfer protocol from MTP to MSC by accessing it under the Menu. Once you do this, when the Lyra is plugged into the computer, it will appear as an external hard drive. Format the hard drive and then drag and drop your songs and/or directories of songs onto the Lyra. This is what I do, as I never use Rhapsody, URGE, or even Windows Media Player or MusicMatch to upload songs onto my RD2763. Hope this helps!
