trouble putting music onto an mp3 player
      #277829 - Sat Apr 29 2006 08:35 PM

when my father tries putting music from a cd onto his mp3 player it shows up on the player as no files and obviously nothing plays.. I do the same using my computer and it works ok.. can anyone tell me if there are settings on the pc somewhere which would stop these procedures from working on my fathers computer...running xp pro....thanks

Are you 'ripping' the CD into mp3 or wma format first?

You can use Windows Media Player to do this.

You're ripping the CD. Good.

Plug your mp3 player in.

Open My Computer and it should show as a removable disk.

On the left side, click My Documents, then double-click My Music.

Select all the tracks you want to transfer by clicking on each in turn, whilst holding down the Ctrl key (or Ctrl + A if you want to select them all).

Once selected, right-click on any selected track and select Send to, then your mp3 player.
