Tips & Warnings

I would unplug the whole system so it will reset everything, leave it unplugged for a few minutes, now Im not sure if it matters wich usb port it plugs into, but my daughter says she always uses the left one and we havent had a problem with any of the sing it games.
Try connecting the player to your computer and press the reset button. You'll need a paper clip or thumb tack to reset it. Then remove the clip and try turning it on. Also as a general rule it's always best to insert and remove the clips when the player is turned off.
The Mix Stick will show up as a removable disk in your 'My Computer' icon or in 'Computer' if you have Vista. You can then open that Removable Disk and drag and drop songs to it or you can use the 'Sync' function in Windows Media Player.
