Cant download songs to mp3

The MP3 player can only play music files that are in mp3 file format.
Music on CDs need to be converted to mp3 format for your GoGear. Please click on this link and follow my instructions to convert and copy music files to your player :-

Sorry iTunes does not allow non-iPod devices to sync with iTunes. However, if you download something called Double Twist, you can put the songs that you have in iTunes onto your Gogear. Double Twist pulls your music from iTunes and does all the necessary file conversion and it's really easy to use, you should give it a try.
Hope this helps!

The GoGear SA 6045 is not compatible with iTunes. As iTunes moves toward DRM-free music, there are a few GoGear models that will work with it, but the SA6045 is not one of them. iTunes format is also known as AAC format. There are no GoGear's that are compatible with DRM-protected AAC format, but a few are compatible with DRM-free AAC's. Sorry.

You will have to find songs that are in Mp3 format from a different music service (or from CD).

The songs that you transferred have a DRM license on them that does not have transfer rights (i.e.: the songs you downloaded can be played on a computer, but cannot be transferred to an mp3 player). The GoGear is giving you this message in hopes that you will Sync it with Windows Media Player and acquire the said transfer rights.

If you download songs that are in true mp3 format, you will not have this problem. Also, if you choose a music service that allows mp3 transfer at your subscription levwel, and continue to pay for that subscription every month, it will also clear your problem.

There are a few possible answers:
1)Start simple - disconnect the GoGear from the computer - let it update - then reconnect it to the computer; if this fails, restart your computer and try syncing again

2)You need a firmware upgrade to make the device compatible with your computer: just open up Philips Device Manager (Start --> All Programs --> Philips) - if you don't see it, then re-run the installation CD or grab the "Device/Firmware Manager" from the Philips website; click on the update tab

3) The songs have Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection.Try re-downloading the songs without DRM protection.

4) The songs are in a format not recognized by the GoGear. The GoGear, for instance, will not take iTunes files b/c they are AAC format. With MP3 files, the player supports 32 –320kbps. With WMA: 5-192kbps with sampling rate 8.0kHz up to 44.1kHz. Right click the song file, and select "Save As", and then change the format of the song file. Or, redonwload, in the above-said format.
