what firmware do you have now and what are you looking for? I can probably find it, I just don't know anything much about cobys firmware, so just let me know versions and I will get to work

Connect the player to the computer.
Open My Computer and open the player.
If you want to create directories on the player to make your ebooks easy to find you can do it here.
Open my computer to create another window, find the audiobook, and drag and drop it into the player window.

If you are in the player window, and delete ebooks from the player, always empty the Recycle bin before connecting. You may need to do this if the player says it's full, yet there should be space.
Files are marked for deletion so they don't show up, but still take up space until the bin is emptied.
This is why you can get things back from the bin.

Alwqys disconnect properly, just unplugging is not good for any external devvice.

The best cable to use is the one that came with the player
If that does not work, try a different cable.
It may be faulty.
Any cable that plugs in may not work, some usb cables are made for charging only, you need a charging/data cable.

Connect the device to your computer via USB. Your computer should bring up the device as an external (or flash) drive. Go in to that drive, find the music and delete the files you don't want.

That's because it didn't come with one - it was on the COBY Player. I did the same thing - looked all OVER for that CD!!! ;-)

I use music in the *.mp3 format at 128mbs

1. I put all movies (avi or wmv), music (MP3s), photos (160x128pixels - jpg) or audiobooks in it's own folder (on my computer) in a folder called "FOR COBY" Easier to restore later, when coby needs ro be reformatted or you change computers (drives)

2. If you've had to re-format the player (which is a great way to get all previous stuff off it), you can get the manager from here:

CobyMedia Manager fix for MP822 (Windows XP/2000/Vista)

Don't let it throw you that it says it's for the MP822 - it also works for the MP610

3. Install downloaded program. Open it.

4. Plug your TURNED OFF Coby Player into the USB port - it will show up in the "DEVICE" tab after the computer goes through it's "Found New Hardware" process

Yes you can get the driver from the Coby web site, support page. Just click the link below and go through the "Select your product" choices.
Once you go through it once it will start over. But just scroll down and you will find your driver under "Available Downloads for MP610" It will be the first choice MP610 Firmware Update. It will be in a ".zip" format, which means it will need to be "unzipped" first. If you are unfamiliar with this do a search on winrar for info and downloading instructions.
After you unzip it open the file you have unzipped it to and find and click on the setup file. This should install the driver you need and your MP3 player should be seen after you do a restart after the driver install.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if you need any further help regarding the installation or the unzipping program.
