I have plugged my coby mp705 into my computer via the usb cable. It charged, but my computer does not recognize it. My computer briefly shows the symbol for something being connected via usb port, but then it disappears. The manual says to open "My Computer" and that the device will be listed under "Audio Devices", but there is nothing.
Remove the device, swear a few times, promise your son you'll buy him a proper ipod, then give it to the dog to play with.
(Open Device Manager)
Click START
Right-click on "My Computer"
Go to Properties
Go to Hardware
Click "Device Manager"
(Bring down list on Universal Serial Bus controllers)
Right-click on the first one and click "Update Driver"
Do the same to the rest under that list
I had the same problem. I tried two different USB ports on the front of my pc. Same results. I then try a USB port from my USB hub and the computer instantly recognized the player. Try all your USB ports and see if that works.

you know the hold button on mp3 player? while connected to the computer, move it to the left until it says hold and it stays there... or if its already on hold move it to the right until its stuck on start symbol
or move it to the right and left vs left or right..
it worked after i played with it for a while...
now if you wait 30 seconds it may or may not reappear :o

i tryed what he said todo but it didnt work its still couldent find it
I updated my drivers, but it did not fix the problem. My computer still does not "see" the mp3 player.
When I try to sync it using Windows Media player - it does not show a device to sync to. It says connect a device.
i have the same coby and my laptop doesnt recognize it what can i do
