My mp3 player sometimes will come on then play for a few seconds then shut off. Sometimes it wont come on at all. If I move the battery around it works for a second. I replaced the battery, but that doesn't help.

My Eclipse 180 SL (4GB) MP3 player stopped playing in the middle of a sound file voice recording of a novel I have been "reading." Also, neither of my computers will recognize it any more.
Get the updated verison of the Philips Device Manager from Philips website, and then click on the Update button once you have installed the new Device Manager.
Several things to be wary of:
* a Philips player ending in "/02" is designed for use outside of the United States
* the SA5125 is incompatible with Windows Vista and Windows Media Player 11 without a firmware upgrade
You can try holding the menu button and center button for a few seconds to do a soft reset. I've had the same thing happen numerous times. Sometimes you just have to restart it because the memory probably gets tired or something. Anyway, if that doesn't help, let me know. Good luck.
The only thing I can think of is try new batteries. I know when mine plays and then shuts off by itself, the battery needs to be changed.
Hope it helps
press and hold the Select button while pressing the Volume Up (+) buttons simultaneously.
Also, after doing so, try connecting it to the computer, and leaving it for about 5 mins to see if you can get a charge. Then turn it on, if that works, you just need to charge your battery.
if that doesn't work, return and exchange it since you just bought it.
thank you i will try that
