Hi My Archos 1 Vision. Wont play a particular music file. It has played it amazingly fine since i bought it 3 months ago. It was connected to my computer charging for a while, then i turned my system off so it was off for a while. Wanted to listen to a few songs before bed,turned it on,selected Music,Scrolled down to the file i wanted,Went to select a song.........FROZEN! I can turn it off but the same thing happens everytime i go to select something from this file Please help i need music on my travels ;-)

SOURCE: corrupted files

this happened to me aswel........

you have to download all your songs back onto your archos and will work fine after that

you may have to delete the songs off first.... i just synched it with my windows media player on my laptop.

from another forum on this site

Thanks and credit to eyez12 - the 2nd option below worked for me

try going to menu, settings, system, and then clicking the update ARCLibrary button, that was all it took for me.
if that doesn't work then go to repair and formatting tools and click "clear temp system files and cache"

SOURCE: music on the hard drive but wont show up in music files.

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