In case you have a problem to connect your Samsung YP-U2J Mp3 player, you should update Firmware to get it working. The new Firmware may be downloaded from Samsung.com.

CLICK Here to Download : Firmware Update

In case u have WMP 11 and player not working, this error is common after installing Windows Media Player 11

Here is the instruction:

1. Download the YP-U2J Updater
   
2. Remove Mp3 player if you already connected to the USB port
   
3. Run the program (You should see something like: Please connect the device)
4. Hold down the Play button and connect the Mp3 Player to USB port (Hold down the play button while you connect the device, you should see a message (normally after 8 seconds) like: Initializing on YP-U2J Updater program screen)
   
5. After you hear the Windows chime "new device found" or the message "Initializing" on YP-U2J Updater, you can now remove your hand from play button.
6. Check the Format Data Area checkbox (By clicking the yes button, you will lose all of your data in your Mp3 player)
   
7. Click the "yes" button
   
8. Finally, click on the Start button (takes less than a minute). DO NOT REMOVE YOUR DEVICE
   
9. IMPORTANT: After updating the firmware, you MUST disconnect the Mp3 player and turn it on. You will see a 20% message for about 50 seconds and it will be restarted automatically.

check wether you use media player 10 or 11. If you have 11 remove all traces of it and either rollback or re-install 10. You will have to reboot your laptop once you have put media player 10 on.

Refer to the user manual. All the operating details are given there.

SOURCE: Turns off automatically

Plug it in and charge it for 3 hours, if it does not say fully charged
or dies quickly after this, then the battery is no good.

You could try this, turn on till dead, wrap in newspaper, place in zip lock bag, place in freezer for 2 days, take out let sit for one day in a warm area,
charge for three hours and see if it holds the charge.
