mp3

[dyli795]

  I plug my mp3 player into the usb port, it lights up and says "ready" , but where do I go from there re. downloading some music onto it ? I'm not too computer savy and realise this is perhaps a big topic but any pointers or directions would be appreciated , thanks !

Hopefully you're using XP, as I know what to do there!

First, go on "Start", then "My Computer". It should show your mp3 player as a Removable Drive. Then go into that. There may be a folder called "Music", there may not. If there is, simply drag & drop the music files you want to listen to into the folder. If there isn't, you may be able to simply drag & drop the files there.

Hope this helps.

Hi dyli,  Follow veloci's advice and you are good,  but note that music from a music CD is not in the correct format to download to a mp3 player it has to be a music file with .mp3 at the end of the filename.

hi i have got an mp3 player and i will guide you through the steeps of putting songs onto and off

first you plug your mp3 player in to a usb port

your mp3 player should light up and possibly tell you in a way that it is connected to the computer(depending on your mp3 player)

anyway i use windows media player 10 you should be able to download it free off www.microsoft.com and it should be on downloads if not just search "windows media player 10" and it should guide you through downloading this program

if you dont want this program youcan try searching how to download songs on to your mp3 player on the website

anyway i will carry on with the windows media player 10 technique you should go to not burn but sync and there should be a drop down bar click it and go to removable E click it and then you go to the left hand side of the program and click add to play list all the songs on your computer should come up then when u have choosen them you go to start sync then if you look on the right hand side of this page you should see it on it the page should be diveded between the bit were it has add to playlist and removable E (thats your mp3 player side) and that is it basicly you can also delete the songs on your mp3 player by clicking itand going to a cross just above the songs on your mp3 player it should be a red cross

so basicly u do it on sync burn is were you put it on cd but sync is the opisite of this

believe me if i can do it you can to
