On the VL-340 I can't change/add music because of a write-protect

I recently received a Visual Land VL-340, 1 GB MP3 player.

I plugged it into my computer, a newer model Windows XP, installed the disk to help with file conversions and the assistant program.

Then opening the MP3 folder, I found that I was unable to drag or paste music into it. I was also unable to modify or change the existing files on the MP3 player.

I received and error message when trying to preform these actions that prompted me by telling me that the Folder was Write-Protected.

I am unsure of how to remove this "write-protection" because after reading the manual twice, found nothing in it mentioning it. If anyone knows how to fix this problem I would be much thankful to find out the solution.

-Thanks

I had the same problem. My wife discovered the battery was installed backwards. Turning it around solved the problem. I have no idea why the battery could effect the write protection!

when you have your Vl-875 is plugged in just open up my computer and double click on the f drive (i think its f anyways) and you should get a bunch of folders like "Audio" and "Music" and the like. just open up the Audio folder NOT the music folder and drag your songs into it it you can create folders with in it for naming cd titles etc then just drag and drop your music into the folders you have created
