How do you get a manual for your Coby mp3? I have turned the valume up and there is no music in the ear plugs.

You need to install the Coby Media Manager for your OS. Connect the player to your computer using the cable. Using the media manager, select the music you want to upload and follow the prompts.

Hello,

You cant synchronize with ITUNES to a Coby MP3 player. Itunes will not recognize the device. Also, Itunes are AAC format which this unit doesn't recognize.

If you have MAC. plug unit into computer, it should show up as NO NAME on your desktop, you wuold have to drag/drop your MP3 file to this location.

If your interested in converting ITUNES to MP3, here is how you could do it on ITUNES "this does not work for purchased music" -

Thats probably because your music is protected Windows Media Audio files, try to sync an Mp3 file, this unit only reads MP3 or unprotected Windows Media Audio files.

Here are instructions for a solution to your Coby 610 problem.

Replacing the firmware of your Coby 610 MP3 Player will unfreeze it and help it act normally again. This will also fix the 'File System Error' that has been popping up with some Coby 610 players. You can find it at the cobyusa.com website by choosing 'Mp3 & Portable', then 'Mp3 & Mp4 Players', then your model 'MP610', from the support page. Or, here is the direct link to the file from Coby's servers.



Unpacking the zipfile from the Coby Website will give you a PDF file with instructions, and a program file to run.

Your music will be erased when you run this firmware update. The instructions suggest that even if your mp3 player won't startup properly, if you plug it into your computer you should be able to access it as a removable disk, and copy all your music to a temporary folder on your computer.

Here are the steps:

1. Plug your MP610 into your computer.
2. Copy all your music to a temporary folder.
3. Disconnect your MP610 from your computer.
4. Disconnect as many USB devices as possible from your computer (to simplify identifying the MP610 at a later step, and avoid damaging other devices by trying to load the MP610 firmware into them by mistake.)
5. Run the Firmware Update program 'MP610 T LCD Firmware Update for file sys err.exe'
6. You will see a screen with up to 24 numbered, empty boxes.
7. Connect the MP610 to your computer. It will show up in one of the boxes.
8. Once the MP3 player shows up, click on the Firmware Feature icon to start the firmware upgrade.
9. After the firmware update is complete, you will receive a checkmark in the firmware box.
10. Disconnect the MP610.
11. Close the firmware update software.
12. Turn on the 610 to confirm it starts up and the display reads 'COBY'.
13. Plug it back into your computer and copy your music back on to it.

I hope that helps.

Read. The. Manual. I'm sorry if this sounds rude, but it really should go without saying. If you've lost the manual, Look for it at the Manufacturer's Website.
But essentially (and generically): To turn on: Press (and maybe hold down) Power Button (sometimes play button) until turns on. Ditto to turn off. To Charge: Plug it into the Computer (Make sure the computer is on). To sync Music. Plug it into the side of the computer, open WMP. Look for device in Library. Drag songs/playlist across.
And in future. Read. The. Manual. Thank You.
