Hi,
Are you trying to update using Windows Vista?
Let me know.
Thanks!!

connect while in UMS mode

for the h10 5gb, just remove the battery, it resets when you put it back in. Some of the other units come with their own reset button.

Switch from msc to mtp

wow, you asked for help back in 08! I had problems getting a responds from them too. I hope your problem was resolved, but just in case....I found my replacement battery on ebay. Amazon may be helpful too.

Hi,

There is a small hole on top of the player it says reset beside the hole. You need a small straight pen to stick inside and press down you will feel it click , then restart your player.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

To reset, remove the battery. It resets when you put the battery back in.

I sometimes have to reset my iRiver in order for my Mac to see it. I have an h10 5gb, to do this, I have to remove the battery then reconnect the battery. Then I connect it the usual way to get into the UMS mode. But I think with yours it has it's own reset button. If it was working and now has stopped, I would think you just need to reset it and try again.

It isn't supported but can still be used.

I have an iRiver H10 5gb and use it with my Mac osx. It isn't recognized in the usual plug and go way. I have to connect using 'UMS' mode. Then I drag and drop the files like it is an external drive.

To play the songs back, I go into the browser of the iRiver. Although this method renders some of the features on the player useless(ie, sorting the songs by artist, etc.) There are some fixes for this, but I have yet to understand them enough to apply them.

They are found on these websites:

Try plugging it in to the computer first while the device is off. Then, hold the O key and press the power button. Worked for me.

The USM trick allows you totreat your H10 as an external hard drive. Then it is easy to copy the musicback to your PC using explorer.

The details for the USMtrick are taken from mistic river.

UMS Models

UMS models do not need thistrick because they are always in UMS mode!

go to www.iriver.com people - what the f--- do you think it means?

Try this: disconnect the player from the computer, turn it off, hold in the volume + button, and reconnect the player to the computer while holding the volume + button in. Keep holding the volume + button for an additional 5-50 seconds. Windows should eventually go into recovery mode and revive the player- it will pop up a window that says Found New Hardware Wizard.

I'm not sure my solution can help you or not.
I've got this message too but after I formated H10 by Windows.

First backup all files by window explorer.
Open iriver plus and go to > Option > Portable Device Initialization.
This function will delete all data, Please sure that you already backup all of your data from H10.
After initialize process finished, it will ask you to disconnect and connect it agian.
------ Steps below, I can't explain it clearly. May be you will not have the same results as me. I hope it can rise you some ideas how it comes.

I followed that instruction but after I disconnected it again and turned on, expected that msg will disappear, IT's NOT! a bit freak out.
Ok claim down,
I tried to turn it off but I can't then I pushed its battery out and put it back and turned on, that msg showed up again.
Then I connected H10 to Iriver plus again and it upgrades firmware automatically.

At the end after I disconnected and turn on my H10 it works perfectly.

Try plugging in usb with the H10 turned off. Now, press the select button (with the round symbol on it) while turning the H10 on. This starts the player in 'emergency mode' and should be recognized by XP

In reading others comments on problems I tried the click and drag solution and was able to get the music from my computer to my mp3 player...Thank you.
