I can not turn my Coby on
Are you trying to use it while plugged into your pc? If you are trying after charge (disconnected from pc) You may want to try hooking it back up. manually clear it, Don't delete everything first create a desktop folder then drag and drop all folders from your device to that folder you just created on the desktop. This you can label if you want or level it with the default name. When everything is done you can go back to your device and delte everything you added.When done disconnet and try using it as you normally would. Sometimes if too much is placed on mp3 places they stop responding because they have to read everything and are very limited on speed and memory. If it works, gradually re-add from the folder you created as a temp placement. I say try just doing have of what you had on it. Unplug and try again. Next add only have of what is left in the desktop temp folder you made. and try again.
Should you not have much on it, could just be a problem with the unit itself.
I'm not certain with your model/brand but you be able to use it while it is plugged into your pc. to try this do a few things first press and hold each but until you main menu screen appears. Usally about 3-5 sec.
Should it not switch then try using the safely remove hardware and eject media feature found on your taskbar in the notification area. if it goes to your menu screen then it may just be a problem with the battery not holding a charge. If it is under warranty contact the company or try returning it to the place of purchase.
I have 4 MP3's a SANSA C210, SANSA FUZE, MACHSPEED ECLIPSE and a GPX ML961. Both c210 and fuze are no longer made. Eclispe is junk and you will never hear from the company should you have a problem. GPX is a nice unit. It hase a better camera built-in and a slightly larger screen. Down fall is no date and time or option to place date on photos The software included in the Eclipse and GPX is junk So I suggest another program Any video converter
Video Converter Freeware convert video to any formats I use this myself and convert videos directly to my player. just reset the output destination folder. More info than you wanted but hey something to think about on your next unit(s) Sansa makes a goo product I just wanted something with a camera. Thus the Eclipse then the GPX same price on each $40 depending on sale and where you go. I'm happy with the GPX over all.
No sound
Please confirm that the volume is turned up and the headphones you're using work by using them on another device. If both those points are confirmed, you may have a faulty headphone jack.
Take (or send) the unit for repairs.

My understanding is that the company closed out it's US branch and withdraw from the US market. Meaning the website and network support for their devices no longer exist.
How to fix my mp3 when it wont turn on
1. If on warranty, rerturn it
2. Either let the battery just die, (because it will just die, and turn off, and you should be able to turn it back on) or, you can open up the battery, take it out, and put it back in. that worked for me.
another thing, is you COULD try to hook it up to the computer, but i am not sure that fixes it. but you can always try. hope i helped!
3. Pull it apart. carefully lever off the cover from the power switch, and remove the small broken bit of black plastic. (it's that broken bit that is your problem.) BE CAREFULL not to disturb the small round metal contact.
now when you poke the small round metal contact you should hear it click as it turns on and off.
to be able to do this when you've put the covers back on, drill a small hole in the back cover above where the contact is. Then you can turn on/off the player by poking a paper clip through the hole.

Coby MP3 USB port loose and wriggly?
If you know anyone who can solder surface mounted parts they can probably solder it back. Sounds like usb connecter has come loose from the circuit board.
