Something about an invalid INF file. It's only 1 ΒΌ" x 3" and weighs 1.5 ounces with the battery. There are lots of nifty little extras. No need for charging.
It comes with an armband and a plastic case. I had a hard time getting it to work. The driver wouldn't install on my Windows XP system. This thing is so tiny. Shuffling the music around has to be done via the computer. Maybe that will help others.
The player came with stereo earbuds which are comfortable and the music is clear. I can listen to the radio and record my voice.
Still this is a great little mp3 player. It actually comes with AAA battery.
I wish I could load music with a card. As I searched the web for a solution, I found that was a common problem.
I finally installed a file named Microsoft_User-Mode_Driver_Framework_Install-v.1.0-WinXP.exe (sorry, links to other sites aren't allowed in our reviews) and Windows Media Player 11 (I had 10); and afterwards, I was able to install the drivers. Instead, I have to connect via USB port.
I wouldn't recommend it nor buy it again because of the problem I had with the INF file, but I like what I have now that it works.
If there are any problems later on down the road with this MP3 Player, I will post another review. No problems with the earphone jack. The only thing I did not use was the disk that came with it. Free plastic case. After doing some reasearch I dedided on a SanDisk. After one and half years of having my Nextar MP3 1gb player, the earphone jack suddenly quit, I was forced to find another MP3 Player.
After searching for another inexpensive player and not finding any. I tried a Staples brand and had to return it the next day for the very same reason. I want everyone to know I just bought this item. I use it six times per week for about an hour while I do my walk. It has been very easy to use. Easy to read display. Will follow up if I have any problems.
I did not want a rechargable battery because of all of the feedback that said you can not replace any recharable battery on any MP3 player. Hopefully, I won't have to. All I had to do was plug in the mp3 and use Windows Media player to download songs on it. On May 27, 2009, I bought this model. This one takes a AAA battery. I truly love this brand and model. Right now I give it 5 Stars
We purchased this little player from [.].as our first foray into the MP3 playing world and I've not been disappointed. I am moving up in the MP3 playing world to something that holds more audio books as I'd like to put both my children's as well as my own audio books on them so we can all listen in the car with the cassette adapter -- which is a real must. We purchased one for our 5-year-old son to listen to children's audio stories and he sits listening, enraptured, to the stories, which is a great way to help him develop auditory learning.
even supports this player, which we were thrilled to learn. then they may get a little uncomfortable, but several hours is a long time. We listen to audio books and [.].
It's also easy to scroll through the various stories and he does it easily once we showed him how, but if you're going to give one to your young child don't overload the player with too many books/songs as they may get frustrated with having to scroll through too many titles to find the one they're looking for.The ear buds are acceptable, but if you have them in your ears for several hours (listening to it around the house, etc). It holds a dozen or so audio books depending on the size of the files with each book lasting anywhere from a few minutes up to 8 or so hours. It holds a ton of music.One reviewer mentioned an FM tuning problem, but I noticed that she used it in the gym and I've never had good reception either when I've used it in a brick and mortar building on the second floor, but in my house and around and about it's been great.Do take time to learn the player and how files are organized (this is a function of your software program, I believe) but once you understand how things are organized, smooth sailing.
I replaced the ear buds with the type of headphones that sit on your ear and not in them and this made a big difference in the level of comfort.I gave it only four stars because of the capacity of the player. They're only 10 or so bucks at Wal*mart.Hope you enjoy.
Here is why: 1. 3. They are useless.4. They are worst than the headphones they give you for free on an airplane on a international fight. The FM tuner sucks. If it dies, and you don't have a battery around the house, you're out of luck.
Compared to and iPod, which can be plugged into an outlet, this is big inconvenience. 2. Please don't buy this. Final advice: Generally speaking, you get what you pay for. I have since learned they make an adapter for the iPod which allows you to listen the FM tuner. The headphones are joke. This cost me $25, but I wish I would have spent a little more money and got, perhaps, the new iPod shuffle.
It's difficult to explain, but it's not easy to use. It takes one triple A battery, which I don't like. Moreover, it just seems cheaply made. I should haven't to read the instructions in order to figure how to get to a station I want to listen to. This was the only reason I bought this was for the FM tuner so I could listen to the TV at the gym. I feel it is going to break any week. And buy the FM adapter.
I also love that it came with an arm band so I can exercise with it. It was super easy to load music onto. I bought this mp3 player about a month ago and wondered why I didn't have one before. I like that it uses a battery instead of having to wait for it to charge on a computer. In fact I have tried to help people load their i pods and this was by far much easier. The booklet that came with it didn't offer much help, yet I was able to figure it out pretty easy. It lasted a while on one battery. I would definitely recommend this product.
