Philips GoGear HDD6330 MP3 Player Logo
Anonymous Posted on Jan 11, 2008

Philips HDD 6330/17, doesnt play music..

Not sure if this is a double post, if so i apologise but the one i saw didnt use english very well, when i load the music it processes the information properly but once it gets to the file it stays at 00:00, almost like there is a software glitch.. thus far nothing has helped (formatting reloading songs charging battery) and i cannot find this problem on the philips site, can anyone help me here?

    i tried all that, i think its the power supply i know with computers and other electronics when the batteries are dying the data starts messing up, it wont play music it just stays at 00:00 and once i turn it off unless its plugged in it wont turn back on.. if i am wrong which i hope i am please tell me XD aside from that i think i need a new battery.

The rule for this device is first reset (hold power on/off and volume + simultaneously and continuosly while the player is turned on; reset works when the power turns off), and then Repair if that fails. The problem with Repair is that it deletes every file from the GoGear. Here are better instructions for repair than the manufacturer's:
1) Open up Philips Device Manager (Start --> All Programs --> Philips) - if you don't see it, then re-run the installation CD or grab the "Device/Firmware Manager" from the Philips website
2) Click on the Repair Tab, and look for a msg that says connect the player while holding the volume + button
3) Disconnect the GoGear from the computer and turn the GoGear off (if you haven't done so already) - hold in the volume + button and continue to hold it as you reconnect the GoGear to the computer; after holding the volume + button for up to 20 or 30 seconds, a window will open up saying that your device is being repaired (now you can let go of the volume + button); after the repair is successfully complete, your GoGear will be good as new.

    Did the problem persist after Repair? You can try uninstalling and reinstalling the software. Install the new version from the Philips website.

I formatted my Philips SA1922 2GB MP3 Player and didnt copy file folders now i cant play music and cant find where todownload firmware

when you format any drive you erase everything that is on them. you need to find the original files from the manufacturer to rebuild your system. philips should have files to download on their website philips.com. make sure your item is registered and they should give them to you for free. next time be sure to only delete your files. and only format first time use storage devices. the player should have already been formatted for your use.!!!!

Non-supported fomat detected use the philips media converter otconvert files to the devicr. Flashing when music is playing and some music won,t play and it won,t delete.

The HDD series GoGear is only compatible with older DRM licenses. You will have to load files that are in mp3 format to have any success at all with this series of GoGear.

Shoqbox not playing or showing song loaded

Make sure you have the version of the Musicmatch from the Philips website first, and try again - Musicmatch discontinued their service in Oct 2007, making this particular Philips mp3 player obsolete.

Also, make sure the files you are trying to load are in Mp3 format specifically - this player cannot take DRM-encrypted WMA files.
