All music files show empty-then i connected to computer, it showed files were there but wouldn't play. Erased using computer and reloaded okay but doesn't show up on list???

Your player is incapable of playing back an MP3 file. Your computer has no problem . Newer players can play back those files along with the more conventional WAV files. Older cd units cannot paly back those files.

Get a free mp3 to Wav file converter and then do the burn.

MP3 players can only play music files in mp3 file format. You can download mp3 music files from the Internet to your computer and then copy them to your MP3 player using the USB cable. For your CD collection, you need to convert your CDs to mp3 music files onto your computer or download them from the Internet and then copy them to your MP3 player after you have connected the USB cable to the MP3 player and the computer.
You can do this using Windows Media player and Rip the CDs - Media Player will create a MP3 music file for each music track. Click on this link for instruction on converting music files to mp3 file format :- http://www.fixya.com/support/r5798418-creating_transferring_mp3_music_files

I use a different MP3 player, but I noticed that mine wouldn't play .AAC files, only .MP3 files. I upgraded the firmware of mine and then it played everything. I noticed there is a new firmware upgrade for the COBY 610, so that might be of help to you.

You can find it at the cobyusa.com website by choosing 'Mp3 & Portable', then 'Mp3 & Mp4 Players', then your model 'MP610', from the support page. Or, here is the direct link to the file from Coby's servers.



Unpacking the zipfile from the Coby Website will give you a PDF file with instructions, and a program file to run.

Your music will be erased when you run this firmware update. The instructions suggest that even if your mp3 player won't startup properly, if you plug it into your computer you should be able to access it as a removable disk, and copy all your music to a temporary folder on your computer.

Here are the steps:

1. Plug your MP610 into your computer.
2. Copy all your music to a temporary folder.
3. Disconnect your MP610 from your computer.
4. Disconnect as many USB devices as possible from your computer (to simplify identifying the MP610 at a later step, and avoid damaging other devices by trying to load the MP610 firmware into them by mistake.)
5. Run the Firmware Update program 'MP610 T LCD Firmware Update for file sys err.exe'
6. You will see a screen with up to 24 numbered, empty boxes.
7. Connect the MP610 to your computer. It will show up in one of the boxes.
8. Once the MP3 player shows up, click on the Firmware Feature icon to start the firmware upgrade.
9. After the firmware update is complete, you will receive a checkmark in the Firmware box.
10. Disconnect the MP610.
11. Close the firmware update software.
12. Turn on the 610 to confirm it starts up and the display reads 'COBY'.
13. Plug it back into your computer and copy your music back on to it.

I hope that helps.

check your file type that you are putting into the mp3 player. This is a common mistake. Most accept MP3 but not other file types such as WMA from windows media player or AAC from Itunes. If all that is good then check where on the mp3's file system the files went using my computer. If they arent in the right folders than they might not show up

on the player: menu, settings, system, update ARClibrary.

cect p168c won't play mp3 music that has been loaded onto SD Card. Shows to be in the phone under file manager my music. When you try to play it. Shows to be an empty play list.

No, sorry. You must reformat and reload
