Iriver h340 shows no content or does not load properly

My iriver is several years old and has several problems. A while ago it gave up letting my charge in by the AC powers connection.

It now does not load properly. It used to cut out and then show a 'low' battery sign when I try to reboot. Now when I try to boot the player it will either show the low battery sign or it will load and say I have zero files and zero songs.

If I connect to the computer it still shows all my files and music.

Can anyone help?

Sounds like the battery is dead. Rechargeables only last so long. I'd copy all the content off it, before the battery dies totally, which could make it not work even connected to your computer. Looks like you can get a replacement battery: Iriver h340 Google Search
And here's a video on replacing the battery: How to Replace the iRiver H340 Battery

It can be the charger that is actually causing your battery to not hold a charge. The closest thing to you would be www.iriverstore.com. connie

SOURCE: Iriver H340 motherboard?

Hi , the price of the motherboard you might as well buy a newe Iriver mate , but if you wanted you might be able to salvage one from a broken I river on an auction site since replacements are not readily avalible for the public .. and as for complexity ,
it shouldnt be too hard but technician to preform the repair job would save alot of hastle in the long run.

SOURCE: iRiver H340 firmware

with the hex file hold the navi button for a few seconds; you get four options select the general one then you will see an upgrade firmware option. select this the hex file on your player is your firmware it will then go through the upgrade process. don't touch while this is happening. it will turn off when done. then thats it. Be careful the version v1.30 will get rid of the video option go with v1.29 or less

Window XP does not recognize my H340 after battery change.

H340 should show as a removable disk drive. Ensure it is formatted as Fat32, run chkdsk, or scandisk. Does the H340 boot into play mode? you did not say. I replaced my battery with no problems... so if it boots Ok it is a non-related fault.

Iriver H340 - new battery charges, but does not work...

Hi, I had the same problem with my H340. I bought a battery for $16 on eBay and swapped them out. The unit would say "Charging" but would never "Complete". When disconnected from the AC, it would not power up at all. I opened it up again and noticed that the old battery connections had the red wire on the left, the battery had the red wire on the right. I took the black and red wires out of the quick-connect jack and swapped them so that the red wire would no go into the player on the left. Works like a charm now.

What is IRM (iRiver Rights Management)?
The IRM is digital copyright information file designed by iRiver

Use the proprietary software found on the IRiver website to transfer songs. If they still won't play, run the songs through Media Monkey or another Mp3 Converter to make them playable.

Iriver h340

Have you tried a program such as drive rescue (I got a portable version (for PC)from portablefreeware.com)
Likewise roadkill's unstoppable copier(google it, sorry no link) I don't know of Mac equivalents.

From memory the hard drive is a 1.8" Toshiba drive. If this is the case, you can get a USB enclosure to plug it into. (I got one on eBay for a similar situation with a faulty X-drive) You will need to pull the h340 apart before you buy it because there are a couple of pin configurations for 1.8 in drives. If you have to resort to cracking it open there was a video on youtube (I think) showing you how.

MisticRiver For iriver Enthusiasts would have more detail, I am going from memory and has been a long time.
