Question about RCA TH1101 MP3 Player

RCA TH1100 I have been using my MP3 for weeks now. Yesterday, I plug it up to my computer like normal and the player automatically comes and starts playing songs. It is as if the player is not connecting to the computer (normally the USB connector prompt would come on). what do I do?

RCA TH1100 Series:
The following procedures will erase all songs on the player.
Check if the file system is NTFS. If yes ,format it to FAT or FAT32. - Connect player to computer, click my computer, right click on icon of mp3 player and select format.
You can also format the player in Windows Media Player tiself.
Connect your Mp3 player to the computer and open Windows Media Player. Click on the Sync tab. Pull down the drop down menu underneath the Sync tab by moving your cursor over the Sync tab and left clicking on the little black arrow underneath the Sync tab. Highlight "name of Mp3 player here 1GB" (wording may vary slightly), and then select "Format." - this should erase everything.

My computer wont detect the mp3 and connect

Is the player working normally otherwise?

If so, then try the player in a different USB port on your computer. When plugged in, the display of the Pearl should say that it is connected to a USB device and it will show up automatically as a removable external drive in your windows explorer.

If not, then upgrade the firmware in the unit and the computer will recognize it again. Download the firmware upgradefrom http://voxrightnow.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2243/related/1, and follow all the troubleshooting instructions that popup when you start the program:

start the program,
remove the battery,
hold the play button while plugging into usb,
release the play button the the term "initalizing" replaces "searching",
check the box that says "format data" (you can try it first without this checked, it may work and will save your music),
click the start button to replace the firmware.

After I did this, my pearl started normally, and my computer recognized it again.

I have a Phillips gogear aria MP3 player. It originally worked OK. After about a week, the play button no longer worked. I used the reset button, but that did not help. The device manager from the CD said...

Time for anew MP3 player.

The player turns on but does is not do anything else.

One time I replaced my battery and my unit would not go any further than the Pearl logo and my computer would not recognize it. So, I downloaded the firmware upgrade from http://voxrightnow.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2243/related/1, and followed all the troubleshooting instructions that popup when you start the program:

start the program,
remove the battery,
hold the play button while plugging into usb,
release the play button the the term "initalizing" replaces "searching",
check the box that says "format data" (you can try it first without formatting and maybe save all your music),
click the start button to replace the firmware.

After I did this, my pearl started normally, and my computer recognized it again.

Reformat the player. Then when you plug it in your computer toggle the bottons back and forth. Also down load the Vista version for the computer, it works for xp also.

Stuck on start screen

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

Then get the firmware upgrade

MP3 player won't turn on with or without plug in.

first toggle the hold switch, make sure it's not on.
then press and hold the menu button+ centre button, together at the same time for about 10 seconds.
if that doesn't work try pressing the middle button+the play button, for a few seconds. It should work.
If the thing still doesn't turn on just hook it up to a comp and leave it there for a few hours. mine actually took a week to recover.

Mp3 player wont play songs or anything

Only 2 suggestions here: 1) Make sure your HOLD switch is not enabled. 2) Try to update the firmware If neither of these work, time to send the unit back to Sandisk
