There are MP3 files with problems, and when they are buried in the MP3, it causes the player to either skip, go to the end, or give an error.

Search for MP3VAL (it's on sourceforge, a free program) and it fixes broken MP3 files. It can do a whole directory very fast. It fixes file length problems in the headers, problems with the streams, and others. If the original MP3 file is badly mangled, you might end up with a "fixed" file that is missing some portions, but that's not created by MP3VAL (MP3 Validate).

Just called Scan Disk if the device got a setting wrong:
Turn the Scan Disk on:
Go to Setting;
Select USB
Change the selection to Autodetect

Go back to Windows Media player the songs should show up..Worked for me.

Yes, you can, although using Window Media Player to transfer/sync is very slow. It is essential to use Windows Media Player if you want to transfer licenced .wma files but it is quicker to just drag & drop the files in Windows.

(.wma files are like mp3s but use a different encoding method)

If you are happy to take the slow route using WMP, (or you need to use WMP to transfer .wma files) then connect your player to the computer by USB, open WMP & click "Sync". Your player should show & you can add files to it in this window.

For quicker file transfer, just locate your connected mp3 player (Start/MyComputer) then copy & paste, or drag & drop files or folders onto it.

Hope this helps!

You can use Windows Explorer to transfer files to your insignia sport player. First, in the settings on your player, go to Settings, USB Mode, Connection Type and select File & Folder. Then, plug your player in to your USB cable. Windows XP should automatically find your player and make a new drive letter in Windows Explorer. Simply drag and drop your mp3 files from your c drive to the new drive for your player. You'll notice that when you delete the files on your new drive for your player that it doesnt remove them from your player. You'll need to use your player (settings, system, erase internal) to erase internal (and external), but after that when you add new files, they will be added to the player when it does the profiling after you disconnect the USB cable.
