Question about Lexar LDP-400 MP3 Player

No space left even though all files deleted

Hi there, My Lexar LDP-400 MP3 player is supposed to have 256 MB memory. This morning it refused to let me load more files even though the total space taken up by the files already on it was under 30 MB. I went to Get Info (on a Mac running OS X) and it showed there was only 1.7 MB available. I deleted everything on it except for the settings.dat file (which shows 2 MB file size), and it's still showing only 1.7 MB available. Help! Is there a way I can scrub its memory or something? Thanks much! Gigi

Thanks, it worked! When I tried it out on a PC, I could see a "Trashes" folder which was not even visible on the Mac. That basically contained everything I had ever put on the drive and thought I'd deleted. Now I just have to figure out how to make that work on a Mac... (Not an actual question. :))

I really appreciate your help!
Gigi

How do i load music on my lexar ldp-400 mp3 player

Hi skidney11...

1...You must download and install Windows Media Player 11 on your computer.
NOTE...Some older MP3 players will not work with Windows Media Player 11 or Windows 7 with Windows Media Player 11.
If this happens to you, then you will have to uninstall Windows Media Player 11 and install Windows Media Player 10.
2...After you have downloaded and installed Media Player on your computer.
3...Open Media Player on your computer.
4...Install all your music into Media Player that you want to install on your MP3 player.
5...Plug in your MP3 player to the computer using your Data/Sync cord, be sure that Windows Media Player is on.
6...Media player should recognize the MP3 player and sync with it.
7...After it is sync'ed with the computer,you can add the music you have installed into Windows Media Player to your MP3 Player.
Please take time to rate me thumbs up.

How to recover space on my 256 MB trekstore?

Try this:
Hook up your mp3 player to your computer
Go to your desktop and double left click on "My Computer"
When it opens you will see listing that says "Devices with Removal
Storage" your mp3 player should be listed there.
Right click on your mp3 player, and a window will open, right click on
"Open" and now your files/songs should be visible.
Hold the left click down and drag it across all the files/songs that
you do not want this will highlight the files/songs you do not want,
release, right click and then click on "Delete"
Now your mp3 player should be clear of the files/songs you do not want.
Be careful and do not delete files needed to operate your MP3 player.
Good Luck,
I hope this helps

Thank You

Can't Delete Files From Global MP3 Player with Mac OSX

When moving an item to the trash, it actually is just in a hidden ".Trash" folder on that disk, so no space is actually freed up. Can you try hooking the drive back up and then emptying the trash?

Mp3 player displays "no files"

It is likely that the files loaded are not true MP3, therefore the PC -which can cope with WAV and other formats will play them but the player that read only MP3 cannot. Are you sure the files loaded are truly MP3?

You have to format your storage on the MP3 Player to FAT File System.

You need to change your USB Port... try the back of your computer. Or you need a firmware update.

Lexar LDP-400 MP3 player (128MB capacity

Formatting the Disk maybe solve it. But if the disk itself is working. Go to Start-> Run -> type "cmd" -> format F: then press "y" and another "y" if it asks you again if the system couldn't read the drive itself. Then this means that your storage on the MP3 Player (that shows as F on your computer) is now broken.
