My mp3 player won't play any songs, since it says that there aren't any songs on there. wen i go on navigation it shows loads of files but there isn't any music on them. and worse it says that my memory is being taken up. and when i try to put on more songs it just says that there aren't any there. what do i do?
I have had the exact same problem-in navigation it showed the names of the artists as a folder but these were empty when I tried to play them-it would only play about 14 other tracks. What I tried this morning - and it seems to have worked-is copy the tracks individually from where they are stored on my pc using the right click and send to removable disk,instead of making a playlist on Windows Media player and then syncing it to the MP3 player. Don't know why or how this has worked but my 8 year old is now very impressed with me!!I have had the exact same problem-in navigation it showed the names of the artists as a folder but these were empty when I tried to play them-it would only play about 14 other tracks.

I have a stunning new breakthrough on the frequently cited problem - "I cannot add any more songs to my Mp3 Player." Before we proceed, I am assuming that the reason you cannot add any more files has nothing to do with available memory space. Of course, if your Mp3 player is full, it will not accept any more songs. But, I am assuming that this is not your problem. Apparently, if you add too many folders, especially via Playlist, via Windows Media Player, the Mp3 player's file system will become unstable - it can only handle a certain number of additional folders.
To resolve the issue:
1. Connect the player to the PC using the USB cable. 2. Open Windows Media Player. 3. Go to the Sync or Devices tab and delete all content from the player. 4. Go to the Tools menu and select Options. 5. Select the Devices tab, highlight the ILO or Siren player and click on Properties. 6. Uncheck the box "Create Folder Hierarchy on Device"
Now, when music is transferred, it will be placed in the root directory of the flash memory disregarding the folder structure and allowing all tracks to be seen.
This procedure was designed for Siren Mp3 players, but is applicable to many other Mp3 players. It is not a guaranteed fix for every Mp3 player and every error of this type, but it is certainly not a widely known or reported solution. i hope that this benefits many Mp3 player owners who are experiencing this issue.
The reason only some songs are playing is because the other songs aren't in a format that it recognizes. Make sure all the songs are in mp3 format, if they're not you can get programs that will convert any song into mp3. If you need more help let me know =)
Step 1. Put the playlist in a regular Windows folder on your desktop.
Step 2. Open a window for Window Explorer and navigate to your Rca Pearl which should show up as a portable USB device.
Step 3. Open the Explorer window for the device and navigate to the "music" folder.
Step 4. Drag and drop your playlist folder that you created into this folder.
When you navigate through the pearls songlist the name that you gave the folder will show up AND all the songs in that folder will play in order...... DONE!!!
the radio and mp3 uses one audio amplifier, check if you have loaded your music with mp3 songs, if not load with mp3 songs. if songs used to play and just stopped playing, then follow these steps,
i does your display show song playing, if it does then your set is fault, and if it doent and display unsuppoted, load with mp3 songs.
ii if it was playing and just stopped, than take it to a tech, who can open it and check the change-over switch, or selector of that set.
Each mp3 player can only play songs in certain formats. A Philips GoGear, for instance, can't read iTunes format. Some players cannot read DRM-encrypted WMA files, which is what most music services use. When you load a song in the wrong format to an mp3 player, the song appears to transfer, but the mp3 player won't actually play it. The best workaround for this problem is to only load songs that are in true mp3 format - they are accepted by 99% of digital audio players. If you give us your manufacvturer/model #, and music service name, we can tell you exactly which formats your player plays.
Make sure you have the version of the Musicmatch from the Philips website first, and try again - Musicmatch discontinued their service in Oct 2007, making this particular Philips mp3 player obsolete.
Also, make sure the files you are trying to load are in Mp3 format specifically - this player cannot take DRM-encrypted WMA files.
