Sound capabilities My player was playing music very well, but i dropped it on the pavement (i tripped and fell - I'm not that irresponsible). Now it still plays, however when I try to listen to music, I only hear the instrumentals or background voices, but I can't hear (or very distantly hear) the main soloist. Is it permanently ruined? or is there something I can do to fix it? I tried adding some new songs after the incident, but they, too, play only the background music with very distant vocals. When I slightly pull out my headphones so they have only light contact, then it plays more normally. When I push them in all the way, then the voices disappear to leave very clear instrumentals. Thanks for the help!!

The symptoms you describe are caused by a break in the earphone socket ground connection.

If you are confident enough, dismantle the player and re-solder the 4 connections to the earphone socket.

Does the home music system have the capability to play MP3? If it does not then its simply reading a "silent audio file", therefore you will get no sound from it. To me it does not seem to have the MP3 capability.

Highschool mucial mp3 won't download music from my computer

The nameless mp3 player that you have is probably not capable of playing DRM-protected songs. Double-check the songs that you have downloaded from Limewire, and see if the 3 songs that you ARE able to play are in mp3 format. If so, only transfer songs in mp3 format to the player. DRM-encrypted WMA's and iTunes (AAC) songs will not work.
