Question about Philips GoGear SA178 MP3 Player
SOURCE: Philips GoGear 2GB memory corruption
You have to do the "update" in the Philips Device Manager (make sure you are connected to the internet when you do) to repair the corruption:
Recovery
Mode for Philips' GoGear
Open
the Philips Device Manager (Start à
All Programs à Philips Digital
Audio Player à SAXXX à Philips Device Manager) and
click on the “Repair” tab. Then click on
the “Repair” button to start the repair process. Most of the time, when your player is in that
state, the Device Manager will not recognize that your GoGear is plugged
in. If this is the case: Disconnect the
player from the PC, and make sure the mp3 player is turned off. Hold in the
volume + button on the mp3 player, and reconnect the player to your pc while
holding in the volume + button. Continue holding the volume + for 10-15 seconds
until a "Found New Hardware Wizard" pops up. It should recover your
device if there isn't anything internally wrong with the player. Warning: this
procedure will result in your songs being erased off the player, so they will
have to be reloaded.

GoGear Firmware Upgrade
You
need to get the latest firmware upgrade from the Philips website:
1.
Go to www.philips.com/support
2.
Enter your country/language
3.
Enter your model # SA6045 or whatever
4.
Click on the link for your exact model # (the one w/o the "B" in it)
5.
Click on "Software & Drivers"
6.
Download the updated "Device/Firmware Manager"
7.
Once installed, open the Philips Device Manager
8.
Click on the "Update" tab, then the "Update" button (with
your mp3 player connected to the computer, of course)
9.
Your Mp3 players firmware will update automatically
If
you do not have the latest version of the Philips Device Manager installed (the
latest is the version from the Philips website), then clicking the
"Update" button will give you a false positive saying "The
firmware on your device is already up to date."
