MP3 issue

Clock-la · Jun 30, 2014 7:58 PM

My MP3 is messed up, I put it into the computer and it says It isn't formatted, so I formatted it...and well nothing happened it still says I need to format it hmm

Any help? I run on Windows XP tongue If that helps xD

Sounds like the internal flash memory is on its way out. Flash memory (SD Cards, built-in device memory and USB sticks) only has (estimated by tests) 999,999 times it can be powered on/off and this includes when the MP3 tries to read the songs so if it won't format it may have failed... sad

I'VE HAD IT FOR LIKE 2 MONTHS DANG IT D:

Have you tried formatting on another PC? It may only be the PC not working.

I'll try it on my brother Laptop, my songs are one it too but when I select them it just says "no file" hmm

That is really a strong sign of flash failure then sad
Does the MP3 have a SD card slot at all for external storage?

Clock-la · Jun 30, 2014 8:47 PM

No but I have my songs on my computer so they should be safe

No problem

It could just be a cheaply made MP-3 player. Depends on how much Clocky invested for it. Same with cheap ear buds, they just don't last long.

"Cheap" could even mean the tiny circuits not being built well, or the memory going bad straight from the manufacture.

That's why i bought headphones from TDK. They have a very nice depth of sound.

Must be because the comupter I have is crap D; I've asked my parents for a better one but they refuse D:

It is always possible that the Computer you were using could use a USB Driver Reinstall/Update? Never hurts to try and it is ALWAYS good (Not 100% good in Nvidia or AMD's Case though since they always end up fixing something and adding 50 more problems to the drivers) to update your drivers.

Glad to hear you figured out the problem smile
