I have had my cd of instructions out and can't see anything on there. The only thing I can suggest is you save your music to your computer and re formatt the player. This though will wipe your player clean. This is only guess work as well . Sorry can't be any more helpful.

Just found this. Not sure what it all means but maybe someone will.

Ok - first play your Cd in Windows Media Player,
Then check the top menu and find "RIP" - click on it
select your CD in the drive, it will now rip all songs on it (few mins) and convert them to MP3 format or wma format
either is ok. I like MP3 as it will play anywhere.
Save into the folder of your choice or make a new folder and name it, and then save these tracks.
you should now be able to copy them into your player and should work ok.

I just knew someone clever would come along and explain a bit more. Hope it works Zoe.
