Re: I am trying to rip cds onto computer but it is saying...
Hi. I think if your machine has no DVD or an Optical drive installed then you have to purchased one because you could RIP any CD or DVD without an Optical Disc Drive. Hope This Helps

I guess you meant ripping store bought CDDA, ;discs. right>?
compact disk-Digital Audio, disks as see in WALFart. music department. right?
first off CD players can skip error playing CDDA will try to play even with scratches, and the data is repeated if you read the spec, on CDDA, but a scratch that is long in the direction of the spin
that will be BAD DATA! and if you rip a CD , it will not like scratches at all. this is COMMON.
Hint bad disks don't rip.
you have 5 choices. (I think I got them all)
A new CDDA disk, with no scratches., duh factor 1:
B: have the disk professional polished, (yes this is a service)
C: try a new CD DISK DRIVE, in your PC, some work better with scratches, or buy a portable CD/DVD USB player it may work better.
D: try a 2nd PC for same reasons of C:
E: try other ripping APPS< some may work better with scratched CDs./? many are free, costs zero to try.
Hello, to Rip a CD to your computer means to convert the audio on the CD into a format that your computer can play, such as mp3 or wma. Windows media player can rip CDs to both formats and stores them in your music folder. Just insert your CD and the option to rip should pop up.
To Burn a CD means the reverse, to transfer music files from your computer to a CD. Media player does this a well, just click the Burn tab to begin.
Thanks for asking, and using FixYa
Go to the player manufacturer's website. They should have software you can download that may make the process much easier.
If not, on plugging the player into your computer, it should recognize it as an 'external' drive in which case you can treat it as you would with any external drive.
When you say "convert," do you mean how do you sync it to your computer so you can put MP3s onto it, or are you asking how to convert CDs to MP3s so that they can go onto the player?
If it's the first, you need to make sure you install the proper driver so that your computer will recognize the MP3 player. You can get the Windows driver here:

If you meant the second part, you will need some kind of CD-ripping software. iTunes will do this, as will WinAmp, and many, many others. You can look up user favorite CD-ripping software on a trustworthy site like C-Net.

What happens when you chose open to see files, this is how I us mine. I go to the folder tree and drag my files from the computer folder to the music folder on the player. If you use windows media player you can convert cd's to mp3 from the menu at the top. if you can not see the menu right click the top bar next to the now playing button, and chose classic menus. Then go to -> tools -> options -> rip music tab and look for the folder it will put mp3's in or change it to a folde you make at the top of the folder tree say ( create a folder named AAA. right click the top c:\ drive and create a new folder and re-name it aaa that will put it at the top). then in the rip music location chose mp3 rip when cd in inserted and close out and your good to go. rip a cd and drag it onto your player.
Its a common problem with CDs. Check that your CD drive can PLAY CDs. If so either the CD drives optical head is dirty or your CD pack are low quality. CDs damage real easy. Try putting another CD, another brand or you must use CD doctor-something like that. Did that help
open media player and insert cd should see a list of tracks displayed (if not select cd from list on lhs)in media player select rip and start rip and media player will rip tracks to your music library.
no..it should be able to burn cd's as well. What burning program are you using. If nero express, set it to burn Cd's from the main screen..What type of cd's are you trying to burn ?
