20 Most Recent Coby MP-C582 MP3 Player Questions & Answers

If you know anyone who can solder surface mounted parts they can probably solder it back. Sounds like usb connecter has come loose from the circuit board.

The instruction manual says that the recommended first-time charge is 12 hours. It does not go on to say how long subsequent charges should be.

You can read the manual here:

The charging instructions are on page 13 of the manual.

Good luck from Detroit, MI.

When you connect the unit to the USB port on your computer, it will automatically begin charging. There are also universal wall chargers that can be purchased from Radio Shack.
If you feel this solution doesn't deserve a good rating, please let me know why so that I may better assist you. If there is anything more I can do to help, I will!

You are confused because the buttons have several purposes. The +/- are volume up and down and Next/Previous. If you press and hold the button, you control the volume. Quickly press and release for Next or Previous. The button below them is Pause/Play and Power (again press and hold to power on or off). The switches on the left side are Hold (no buttons work) and Random (play loaded songs in a randomized order)

For the hold feature, move the switch to the padlock. Unlock by sliding the other way. The Random switch has a more obvious label - Random or Normal.

The user's manual for the MP-C582 is available here: http://www.cobyusa.com/files/manuals/MPC582_MN.pdf . If the direct link doesn't work, try the support site: http://www.cobyusa.com/?p=doc and search for the model (MP3 & Portable, MP3&MP4 Players, MPC582.)

I hope this helps.

Do you leave the hold button on? If so, turn off hold when you plug it in.
