I've deleted the music but all the titles/writing are still on the mp3 player & I can't remove them.

MP3 players can only play music files in mp3 file format.1st - You need to convert your CDs to mp3 music filesonto your computer or download them from the Internet and then copy them toyour 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.
There are also Freeware CD RIP programs on the Internet that add the musictitle and album title to the mp3 file automatically.
OR
Download mp3 music files from the Internet to your computer, some sites willcost money to download these music files.
2nd - connect your MP3 player to your computer using the supplied USB cable.The computer will see this player as an external storage device, Just copy theMP3 music files from the computer's hard disk to the MP3 player.I suggest you create a album/title folder for each CD soyou can place the mp3 music files by that artist into that folder. Then copythese folders to your MP3 player and you will be able to select and play yourMP3 music by selecting the album you wish to play.
NOTE - When the USB cable is connected to the computer, it will also charge theMP3 player's battery.Click on this link for instruction on converting musicfiles to mp3 file format :- http://www.fixya.com/support/r5798418-creating_transferring_mp3_music_files

i cant delete write prtection file storage for phillips GoGear SA51

In the music folder have you right clicked and selected properties then uncheck the "read only" box?

This problem is well known for mp3 players the solution is to do player updates.

If that doesn't work format your mp3 player by going on to the software you tranfer songs to the payer with and formatting from there (not deleting the songs) do it the correct way which should work.

If there isn't a format option on the software go to "My Computer", look for the device on there preferably called "Removable device" make sure it's the mp3 player right click on it and click "Format", once format is complete do player updates then use it as you would and see if the problem has be fixed.

Good luck. Hope my solution helped.
