After you sync your music collection to a Philips GoGear MP3 player with Windows Media Player, your favorite tunes will always be with you. Backing up your music collection on an MP3 player requires only a USB cable and a computer. Follow these steps to find out how easy it is.
jQuery('.intro .thumbnail').each(function(i,e){ jQuery(e).find('img').one('error',function(){ jQuery(e).remove(); }); }); Difficulty: Moderately Easy Instructions Things You'll Need:

1. Plug in the Philips GoGear to your computer. Use a USB cable to make the connection so you can begin synchronizing your music collection.

3. Find the Sync tab in the media player window. Click on this tab and open the Sync screen. The Sync screen has two panes. The left pane is for the music collection on your computer; the right pane is for the Philips GoGear.
   
4. Choose the songs from your collection that you want to add to the GoGear's memory. Check the boxes that are presented by each song title.
   
5. Click the "Start Sync" button. The files from your computer are being copied onto your GoGear MP3 player.
   
6. Wait for the sync to complete. You can monitor the progress in the "Windows Media Player" window.

Media Manager is just the software that allows you to sync, the MP3 player should still show up as a Removable Disk drive under 'My Computer'. If not, check your connections, something should also appear on the MP3 player screen when connected to the computer.

Try to reset the drive to the factory setting and see whether it helps.
This can be done by Set Up >> Preferences >> Defaults >> Reset.

Good Luck!

of course you have to secure a installer disk even if you lose it.... And also you can download a Software Installation from your MP3 Website..
Theres a lot of MP3 are not using a program on its own to upload and download a mp3 files in your MP3 player.
But if you can download your mp3 files without using a program of your mp3 player and then you can play it... Its ok...! Good luck!

It says in the user manual for C-100 sansa player that "various software packages are available to syncrhonize your songs on your device. Please refer to the specific software package instructions. "

I used Windows Media Player 9 and when you use these older Media Players you must remember to change your USB setting on your Sansa player to MSC. Turn on your Sansa Player, Choose the Main Menu and select settings. Don't choose auto-detect, but select MSC. If you choose auto-detect it will default to a setting called "MTP", and MTP wants Windows Media Player 10 to download your stuff.

I'm not familiar with how ITunes works, but perhaps AUTODETECT will work to synchronize your files.

Good luck.

Download a program called "media monkey" it will sync with your mp3 player automatically and does lots of other cool stuff too, and it's free.
Just google it and download.

you have to have on your computer windows media player, then download your music into a foulder named music in my documents, that way when you open the media player the music should show in that program, then select sync on the bar and drop the music into the right side colum where said sync list then select sync at the bottom of that list of songs, of course you have to plug your device into the computer for this. good luck, it work if you do the correct thing.

OK blondjoke windows vista doesn't work on a lot of things but here is a fast and easy way to fix it. Plug your MP3 into the computer it will show up on "My Computer" as a driver. Then go to Windows Media Player pick the music you wish to play on your mp3, next go to Sync chose device driver your MP3 then drag the music you have picked out to the Sync box then click Sync this will download your music to your MP3. do not forget your microsd card you can download on and use to.
