I have a Creative Muvo TX FM mp3 player that wont play mp3 files after I formatted it. Its radio and other components are working perfectly. How can I fix this?

MP3 players can only play music files in mp3 file format. You can download mp3 music files from the Internet toyour computer and then copy them to your MP3 player. For your CD collection, you need to convert your CDs tomp3 music files onto your computer or download them from the Internet and thencopy them to your MP3 player.
You can do this using Windows Media player and Rip the CDs - Media Player willcreate a MP3 music file for each music track.

System eror on mp3 can this be fixed?

You would need to format your MP3 and reinstall the firmware on it.
Be sure to get the latest firmware so your MP3 gets all the fixes possible. Format it in FAT32 using windows or if you have an application included with the factory CD-ROM, use it to format it.

Downloaded music to 60g zen xtra

Hi there

I would suggest that you have a look at the file format, i.e .mp3 .wma and then make sure that you mp3 player supports that file format because if the mp3 player only supports mp3's then it will not play .wma. Please remember to give me a good rating.

Kind regards

Cannot play files

The files can be read only from the ROOT and their Subfolders. Subfolder of the Subfolders cannot be read in most mp3 players.
Example,
Let's F: as your root.
F:\My.mp3 can be played.
F:\Subfolder1\My.mp3 can be played too.
F:\Subfolder1\Subfolder2\My.mp3 cannot be played.

Music wont play

check to make sure that the file you are trying to play is not corrupted. If replacing the file does not work, then check to make sure it is a supported file format, and that you have the latetest firmware installed for the player. If none of these work, the try reformatting the player from the options tab of the creative software.

File error

What's the music format of the songs that you placed on your mp3 player? Some MP3 Players only capable of playing song files with .mp3 extension and are incapable of playing other music format like wav, wma, etc. Check also the contents of the player for corrupted files and foreign files. Some viruses from a computer could affect the performance of your mp3 player.

Won't format and won't play mp3

try loading files on different bit rates and see what bitrate your player can play. some player wont play files that are directly copied to the player, it needs a certain software to encode it to its standard format. sony walkman is an example, it has its own software to encode files from mp3 to its own supported format.
