I have an GPX MW1388 MP3 audio player I cant get it to take music

Google is your friend. Go to http://www.gpx.com/store/p/221-MW3816.aspx and that page has all the downloads for software, driver updates, manuals, etc. If this solves your problem, please come back and rate our answer.

MP3 players can only play music files in mp3 file format.
Google search for free mp3 music files and download them to your computer. Then connect the USB cable that came with your player, connect it to your player and then plug it into the USB port on your computer. The computer will see the player as an external storage device, then copy the mp3 music files to your player.
You can convert your CDs for free and copy them to your MP3 player. Please click on this link and follow my instructions :-

If they are songs that somone paid for, no matter who, then they probably DMR attached to them. T

If there isn't a delete option available on your mp3 player, then here's what i suggest.

Connect your mp3 player to your computer.
Once you have been given notification of the connection, got to my computer.

The mp3 player will be shown as a removable disk.

Right-Click on the removable disk and select the "explore" option.

This will open a new window showing the contents of the mp3 player.

There should be a folder inside the mp3 player (removable disk) labeled music, or a large display of multiple music files.

From here, select the music files you want to delete.... but note that *all music you delete from the mp3 player will be removed permanently, and will not be redirected to the recycle bin*...but you can always get it back ;)

Hope this helps <(^_^)>

sEVERAL POSSIBILITIES:
* You downloaded protected music on your Windows 98/98SE, Windows 2000, Windows XP computer using Windows Media Player 9. Music was purchased online or the music was ripped form your own audio CD with Copyright Protection turned ON.
o You must use Windows XP and Windows Media Player 10 for online purchased songs.
o You must turn OFF Copy Protection on your Windows Media Player 9 before ripping your audio CDs into WMA files
* You downloaded protected music to your MP3 player using your Windows XP computer and Windows Media Player 10 with your player in USB mode. Music was downloaded from the internet, purchased or subscribed, or it was ripped from your own audio CD with Copyright protection turned ON.

well... what you can do is go to downloads.com and download limewire and get your songs off of that

On windows XP pull up windows explorer go to my computer and look for your mp3, towards to bottom of the list. click on the + next to the name, then click audio,music and the album name for the song you want, right click on the song, then delete.I just tried it on mine and it worked. I haven't tried windows 2000 yet. Hope this works for you

Dear Pujols69 ,
Please download the drivers and manual for your player, from this URL:

It is easier to get a SD memory card for it. Drag and drop the music onto the window which represents the SD memory card and then just put the SD memory card into the GPX MP3 player. I have the same MP3 player and it works nice... it was a good deal for the money! Take the savings and invest in a cheap SD memory card and you will be happy.... I was!
:-) Good Luck!

With the mp3 player connected go to start and open computer drag icon for the gpx audio player so that it is a shortcut icon on your computer then double click on the gpx icon go to audio player and click on the icon for music or albums and right click to delete if no icons for music and and albums appear right click the audio player and format it a couple of times then x out and when you go back on the short cut icon for the gpx when you click on the audio player the icon for music and albums should appear. it took me 2 hours to figure out how to mget the songs of this stupid mp3
