Right, I've had this MP3 player for a couple of months and have only just had chance to get it out of the box.

So, I'm looking at it and I've put battery in, plugged it into the computer and I still don't know what to do with it - I ripped a cd and tried to get it to copy to E drive but it's not working

So, anyone help me cus I'm a bit fik sometimes?

When i got mine a last year i had to make sure i had the latest version of windows media player (version 10 i think).When you,ve ripped your disc it should also go into media player libary.From there click the sync tab and get them over to the right hand side.Plug in your player switch it on and press start sync.I,m pretty sure thats how i do it with mine but it may be slightly different for each player.

good luck dave

Just a thought - but have you installed any software you need ?

Also ... what make and model is it ...

Thanks Dave

I've got the latest version of WMP. I'll try doing what you said and see if it works.

Erm..there's just a little disk that says driver on it, but says you don't need to install driver if you've got xp

Yer not the only one , I have to get my teenager to do it for me

He does cringe a bit at my "old" music but I don't care

Erm it's nothing fancy - just says WBM Select 128mb mp3 player

Lol, perhaps I should ask my 4 year old he'd prob have more idea than me

You know before I was pregnant with him, I was really sharp with this sort of stuff - now I just have mush for brains

Woohoo - thanks Dave - it worked - just had to format player first

Know exactly what you mean, my second job after leaving school was in a tv/video shop. I used to set them all up and could do everything with them.

Now I have not got the foggiest and have to rely on the kids

I don't think it's cos the brain is mush, more that we have sooooo much to do in a day we can't hold any more information and I am sticking to that.

Glad you got it to work anyway

My iTunes have a mind of their own....hit or miss if they actually put anything on the iPod

Lol, I used to be the one the IT blokes sent people to at work to help out with all the little problems and any software problems! What happened - just got out of the loop and lost interest I think. That and my mushy brain just takes a lot more of a kick start that before

We do that sort of thing all the time. It's called work time management (aka pass the buck). "Yeh go and see so and so, she knows all about it and can probably explain it better than I can."
Gives us more time to drink coffee, eat biscuits and fiddle with our gadgets.

Lol, yes whenever I used to have to venture down to the IT office - which in some kind of warren they all used to scurry around trying to look busy. You know even after I left that job I used to get phone calls from people asking how to do things, because the IT blokes had told them to 'shut it down and reboot'
