My Mp3 player blinks when i turn it on and never turns of and to turn it off. I take out the battery and put it back in. What should i do?

I meant to say "turns off" not "turns of". And i meant "to turn it off," not "to turn it off."

Here's how I fixed mine:

Turn on your MP3 player, it should be blinking. Plug it into your computer and wait for it to link up. Then use your computer to format it, THIS WILL ERASE EVERYTHING, so copy off your music before hand.
Then go to this web site and download and install the software:

Now when you start the software, if it doesn't find your MP3 player (it didn't find mine) it will say your firmware version is 0. Go to the DETAILS button. It will list four files (it will show five but two are the same file) for he update. Locate these files on your computer and copy them to you MP3 player.

Pull out your MP3 player, and it should now work. Hope this helps.

Try this: disconnect the player from the computer, turn it off, hold in the volume + button, and reconnect the player to the computer while holding the volume + button in. Keep holding the volume + button for an additional 5-50 seconds. Windows should eventually go into recovery mode and revive the player- it will pop up a window that says Found New Hardware Wizard

My sansa 3280r mp3 player just froze and can't turn it off - computer doesn't recognize my mp3 player

press-down on the power on/off button for 20 seconds. that should force it to turn it off. however, should that fail, you can use small screwdriver to remove the four screws on the back... then lift-out the battery, and then put battery back in place.

You have to change the battery. To do that you have to take that thing off on the back of the MP3 player and unscrew it to change the battery.

Not turning on

This happens to me on my Lyra MP3 player when my battery is low. If you have a fresh AAA battery in it, and it is in the right way and your lock on the back of your Lyra is OFF, and you still only get a blink, then you have a defective unit. Return it to RCA and get another one.

RCA means (Really Crappy Audio)

It seems that it is very difficult to find help from RCA. Most drivers and manuals are not available for MP3 players, and the ones that are, don't help very much and are often very generic. RCA, among other brands make disposable MP3 players that short of changing a battery or resetting it, there is nothing else that can be done. Warranty is the most important thing but when you have to send the defective unit off, they want money for shipping. I have heard of them returning your MP3 player as fixed and the minute you turn it on, it does not work. On here, we try to assist with many problems but MP3 players are often hard to diagnose as most are defective from the factory.
