the problem could be with the headphones or the jack on the mp3 player

Hi Mommychrista,

Thanks for the question ,

To connect this media player you don't require any additional drivers but you can use the inbuilt windows media player if you are using windows XP, VISTA or Windows 7.

However please note that you need windows media player version 7 or more to get this player connected to it.

What you need to do , is open windows media player and then connect this music player to a working USB port via the USB cable which comes along with this music player.

Then Windows Media player will prompt you with a setup screen asking you to name the MP3 player.

Once you have named your MP3 player, select Finish, and your Windows Media Player will open to the Sync tab.

Drag your music to the sync list (on the right of the screen) from the list on the left.

Once you have selected the music you wish to add to the player, press Sync.

Windows Media player will load the songs on to your MP3 player.

Once all the songs you have added are synced to the unit, and Windows Media Player says that is safe to disconnect your MP3 player, disconnect the device.

If your son has all his music files that he needs in one folder , then he can follow another method of simple copy and paste.

This works as follows :-

Connect the music player to the computer via the USB cable, connect this cable in a working USB slot and the player on the other end.

Then you will find a removable device being detected in your my computer, that removable drive is the memory of your music player in which you need to copy files.

Just right click on that icon of removable drive and select open and then you can copy the folder that you want to copy by right clicking on the folder and selecting copy and then come back to the removable drive , which you have opened and then select paste.

This will copy the complete folder to your music player's memory.

Then you can safely disconnect the music player via the USB cable and then you will find that the files are being shown in the music player , ready to play for you ...:)

Hope that helps ..:) In case you have any queries, feel free to let me know , your feedback would be appreciated.

I could only get mine to work by copy and pasting files directly into the "music" folder. Don;t use sub-folders.....

Ok lets look at your mp player. Name brand and model, what do you have? Some players do not have to have media player to put files onto your player. You can use media player to convert most sound files to MP3's, but if you are downloading MP3 files you can copy straight in to your player's music folder and play the files. Does your player hook up to the computer as a "portable device" or as a removable drive? If it hooks up as a removable drive you are set to go with copy and paste. If it hooks up as portable device you need to check in the players settings and look for USB settings and see if you can set it for MSC mode. repost if need more info.

You don't need to use Windows Media Player in order to put music on your player. There are various reasons why it may not be syncing. Below are instructions for how to put music on the player using copy and paste. It's the easiest way to add music to an MP3 player.

How to load an MP3 player without using Windows Media Player. First, allow me to clarify a few things so that there is less confusion: When you connect an mp3 player to a computer, you will not be able to use it until it's disconnected. In other words, the only thing you should do while the player is plugged into the computer is adding or deleting files. You can't use the buttons on the player while it's communicating with the computer, and as long as it's connected to the USB port, it's communicating. Ok, let's get started! Step 1 Connect the player to your USB port using the cable that came with it. (NOTE): If the player has a male USB connector already on it, connect the player directly into the computer without using the cable. In other words, only use a cable if you have to. Step 2 Click the "Start" button or press the key on the keyboard that has the Windows logo, and go to My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Vista). Step 3 Locate your MP3 player on this screen. Do not close this window; just minimize it. (NOTE): It should show up under Devices with Removable Storage or as a device under "Other." Most importantly, it should show up on this screen as something! When the player is connected, you should have something on this screen (usually an icon of some sort) that represents the player. This lets you know that the unit is ready to receive files because it's being recognized by your computer. Step 4 Locate and open the folder that contains your music files. Step 5 Using the mouse, copy one or more files. (Right mouse click on file, then left mouse click on copy) Step 6 Go back to the "My Computer" or "Computer" screen, right mouse click on the icon representing the player and left mouse click on paste. You should see a small status bar appear showing the file(s) being copied from your music folder to the player. Step 7 Click on the Safe to Remove icon found in your system tray and disconnect the player. And that's it! If you need additional assistance, I will help in any way that I can.
