Unfreeze a RCA M4208GR-B! HELP PLEASE!

Is it hooked up with HDMI cable?

If so try unplugging the HDMI cable and re plugging the cable in, sometimes those cables work loose and if they are not tight, it will cause your screen to flicker. Happens to my TV once in awhile.

Manual for RCA Opal M4208GR:
http://www.voxxsupport.com/images/manuals/M4208GR/media/M4208GR_DOC_OM.pdf

This player has default setup MSC mode, seeing the player as a flash drive also called a removable disk.
MSC = Mass Storage Class
When seeing the player as a removable disk in Windows Explorer:
Drag and drop the song, with mp3 or wma format, into the Music folder on the player.
Note: some wma files may have DRM = Digital Rights Management. These files might be copied or transferred onto the player but cannot be started for playback.
Important: in MSC mode always safely remove hardware, the players' removable disk, at the bottom right corner of the task bar.

Transfers to the player can also be done with software like Windows Media Player 11, RCA easyRip or other software from music stores.
This can be done in MTP mode. MTP = Media Transfer Protocol.
How to switch to MTP mode, seeing the player as Media device:
In the players Menu go to Settings. Go to Protocol. Select MTP mode / switch from MSC mode to MTP mode.

try another set of headphones, well, not on the player, if its on the max then its maxed out. but basically if you connect it to speaker you can turn the speakers volume up even more.

might be bad headfones?

This Mp3 player is ridiculous! My husband and I each have one (purchased Dec 08) and by Aug 09 his froze never to turn on again. I thought maybe he got a lemon because mine was still just fine. As of Dec 09 mine is unresponsive as well. Pretty junky piece of equipment if you ask me. Sure it was only $50 some odd bucks at Walmart, but I would expect it to last much longer than a year - especially because I had barely even used mine. Ridiculous. My best suggestion... buy a different brand. Junky ole RCA needs to retire.

i held in the power button for 5minutes,it shut off,then turned it back on.but now i have another problem,now it wont play my music.i cant get the plan so if u could just tell me what u think or know what to do i would really appreciate it.

I did the same thing and reformatted mine too! If you go to www.rcaaudiovideo.com and put in your model number M4208GR and click on the update for the firmware update again then it will put everything back on the MP3 player. I know it sounds nuts but it worked for me and it wont do anymore harm then you have already done ;) Give it a try. Hope it works for you like it did me!

Plug your RCA M4208GR-B MP3 player into your computer with the USB cord. After the computer recognizes it.
STEP 1 click start
STEP 2 click MY COMPUTER
STEP 3 Right click the associated drive letter (i.e. OPAL) to show the option menu.
STEP 4 click "install RCA easy rip"

click on file, preferences, make sure your sound card is enabled as output

mine usually turns on the next day
