Open your favorite file manager (on Windows you can press the Windows and E keys simultaneously to bring up Explorer). Your jump drive will show up as a removable hard drive. You can then drag&drop your documents to it, the same way you copy any other files from one place to another.

i think u got another format of song .U should check its on mp3 format

This model does not have a Reset button ..Refer to the user manual for more info :http://www.bose.com/pdf/customer_service/owners/Lexar_MDA256_og.pdf

Try putting hard drive into another computer as a slave then format it ,that should cure it dont forget to change the little switch thingy from master to slave though

Is it packed when your daughter gave you the mp3? If so, there should be a manual in the box. Or download it from Internet.Yes, music can be saved to the SD card. In fact generic sd is okay.electronics wholesale

Your player must be connected and the media to be loaded must be converted please use the link for the driver to be loaded .http://www.fixdevice.com/drivers/mp3_player/lexar.htmlYour music files can be transfered to the player using this driver

Hi skidney11...


1...You must download and install Windows Media Player 11 on your computer.
NOTE...Some older MP3 players will not work with Windows Media Player 11 or Windows 7 with Windows Media Player 11.
If this happens to you, then you will have to uninstall Windows Media Player 11 and install Windows Media Player 10.
2...After you have downloaded and installed Media Player on your computer.
3...Open Media Player on your computer.
4...Install all your music into Media Player that you want to install on your MP3 player.
5...Plug in your MP3 player to the computer using your Data/Sync cord, be sure that Windows Media Player is on.
6...Media player should recognize the MP3 player and sync with it.
7...After it is sync'ed with the computer,you can add the music you have installed into Windows Media Player to your MP3 Player.
Please take time to rate me thumbs up.

You're looking for the option to "Format" the flash drive. Plug it in to your computer, and depending on the operating system, you're going to click Start > My Computer or Compute > Then right click on the Flash Drive, it should be listed on the left hand side of the screen. Find the Format option and select it. That should delete all of the files.

Hi.. You might check to see that the external drive is actually powered up, does it need to plugged into power or is it USB connected. Try a different USB port. Go into start settings system device manager and see if the USB ports all come up ok, or if there is a yellow ? Question mark, meaning that the system isn't recognizing one or more f them (And, if that's the case, you probably need new USB drivers on the PC.. - unplug the USB device, tell windows to update the driver (or delete the bad device and reboot - windows should rebuild the USB device ))

Worst case, take the drive to a computer repair place and tell them you want to get the pictures off the drive. Unless the drive itself has died, should be able to get photos off it.
