I don't remember to download music on my camnex 602
Plug in your player into a usb. Open windows explorer or my computer and look for the new drive letter. Open the folder If that is the correct folder then go to My music and copy the songs you want to copy then paste them inside the players folder

I have movie, photo and text.dir but NO music.dir on coby 620 MP3 player. WTF? It's brandnew, Xmas gift.
I had the same problem. Plug the player into your usb on your computer. Bring up "my computer" and find the letter drive of your player. All the existing folders (movie.dir, photo.dir, etc) should show. NOW, while your still in this folder, use your toolbar on the top of your screen to click on "file" and then select "new folder". Carefully type in MUSIC.DIR, click enter and you have now created your own. I did this and it seems to work as it should. It is weird that mine didn't have a music.dir folder either! Good luck!

How to download music onto mp3 player just received player for first time not to sure how to go about it
The answer is "it depends".

Some MP3 players, such as an iPod, use the free iTunes software to download.

Some MP3 players, when connected, appear as "disk-drives",
which means that you just "copy" the files from your C: drive to the drive-letter assigned to the player.

Modelno.GC-821 2GB can not down load computor will not find format how may I down load music to my mp3
If you would like to download music from the computer to the MP3 player, please follow the steps below:

1. First, you must download music from a website or from a CD, then save the music into a folder in your computer.

2. Connect your MP3 player to the computer. Once detected, you will be prompted to either play, browse or to open the folder. You must open the folder.

3. While the MP3 folder is open, you must open the folder in your computer where you saved the music.

4. Then, simply drag and drop the music from the folder in your computer going to the MP3 player folder.

Then you should see a progress of transferring music.

Thank you and good luck!

You do not need any special software. Just a USB cable that will fit your device.
  1. Connect device to PC
  2. A box should open on PC asking something like "what do you want do do?" Select the option that opens folder to view files. When folder opens, leave it open and move to step 4.
  3. If a box does not appear in step 2: click "My Computer" or "Computer" on Vista systems, then look for a device with a drive letter (usually F: or G: or H:). This represents your mp3 playerconnected to your system and you can access it from here. Click it and it will open a file on your mp3 player for you to put music on.
  4. Open the folder on your computer that contains the music files you want to put on your mp3 player. These files are usually found in you "My Music" folder.
  5. Hold the Ctrl button and highlight all the music files you want on your mp3 player. When all are selected, release the Ctrl button, right click one of the highlighted files, and select "copy"
  6. go back to the folder for your music player and right click an empty area of the folder where the files would be shown, and select "paste."
  7. Look in your tray (the little icon area near your computer's2_bing.gif clock) and see if there is a little icon that says "safely remove hardware" when you hover the cursor over it. If this is present, then click it and select the option to safely remove the device with the drive letter your music player was listed as. If you don't know the drive letter, then follow the first part of step 3 to find out what it is.

Open the new folder (which you created) in the mp3 then paste the songs that was downloaded.

To play the music in the mp3 player, just find the folder you created.

try viewing directly with Windows: Open "My Computer" and look for your drive letter for the Jensen. Open it and you will see all of the folders and files on that MP3 player. Try mouse dragging songs into the correct folder of the drive letter.

How to upload files from MP3 player to computer
Hi. To upload files from your E260 to your computer, you can do the following: Step 1: Browse the player on your Windows Explorer. Under "Windows Explorer", your player should appear as an icon under "Portable Audio Devices" or as a "Removable Drive" with a corresponding drive letter. This really depends on the mode your player is in -- MTP or MSC mode. Step 2: Set your Windows Explorer to "Show Hidden Files or Folders". The folder containing your music files on the player is a hidden folder, so make sure you go to "Tools" menu on your Explorer window, then select "Folder Options", then select the "View" tab, then enable the "Show Hidden Files and Folders" radio button Step 3: If your player is set to MTP, you would find the sub folder called "PPI NAND". Open this folder and you would see a list of sub-folders, one of which is labeled "Music". Open that and you would see your music files If your player is set to MSC, open the drive letter corresponding to your E260 and you see a list of folders, one of which is labeled "Music". Open that and you would see your music files. Step 4: Select the music files you want and copy them to your local hard drive I hope the info helps.
