MP3 Problem...not playing any music!?

Question

Hello, everyone...

I have a Sylvania MP3 player and it won't play any of the music I downloaded to it. When I go into the Internal Device mode, I can see where they are all stored into different folders, but pressing the play button doesn't work, and neither does pressing "play all." Whenever I connect it to my Windows Media Player, however, all 62 songs play.

I don't understand! Can someone please help me because it says nothing about this on the directions provided with the device.

Thanks!

The simple answer may be your MP3 player does not support a certain type of format. I have a Magnavox MP3 player and on my laptop when I put music on it it will not play it because i only have Windows Media Player 8, but when i put songs on it from my desktop computer it plays them because it mas Windows Media Player 11. So first try checking what version of Windows Media Player you have and then check what format your music is in.
