When you record in .wav format, the files ARE better quality, however, they are ALOT larger than a standard .mp3...if you can't tell the 'loss in quality', i would suggest to keep recording as .mp3...but if a .wav is preferred, then i would suggest upgrading the SD card. ..hope this helps.

SOURCE: can't connect the h4 handy recorder to a mac

If you are using a Mac running Leopard (Sys 10.5), you need to upgrade the H4  firmware from Zoom website
http://www.zoom.co.jp/english/download/software/h4.php

You will need an external SD card reader.
Good Luck

SOURCE: My zoom multitrack says "check disk"

http://www.zoom.co.jp/archive/English_Manual/E_MRS1044v2.pdf If this is the model you have you have to format the hard disk before using it the first time. You may also have to restore the machine to factory settings using the recovery disk that came with it. The link is to the download for the manual.

SOURCE: my Fostex mr8 hdd "full"

If you can reformat the drive after dumping out anything you want saved MIGHT fix the problem...

The unit MAY not be able to tolerate fragmenting when you delete a snippet here and there... It may require large blocks of contiguous space.

The green screen has no lettering on it, the Zoom H4 powers up and screen lights but no lettering is seen
If the green screen on your Zoom H4 recorder is not displaying any lettering, it could be due to a few different issues. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Make sure the contrast setting on the device is adjusted properly. If the contrast is too low, it could cause the lettering to be difficult to see. Try adjusting the contrast using the device settings.
  2. Check the battery level. If the battery is low, it could cause the device to function improperly, including the screen not displaying properly. Try charging or replacing the battery.
  3. Reset the device to its factory settings. This will erase any custom settings and configurations you may have set up, but it can sometimes help to resolve any software issues. To do this, hold down the "+" and "-" buttons at the same time while turning the device on.
  4. If none of the above solutions work, there may be a hardware issue with the device's screen or internal components. In this case, it's best to contact Zoom support or bring the device to a repair professional.

MP3 is a compressed format so there MAY be some SLIGHT distortion in MP3. It should not be a significant level however. I would contact Zoom and get support from them regarding this problem.
