I want to listen to some cds from my local library. I’ve saved them onto my PC. I’ve just bought an MP3 player so I can transfer them from my PC on to the MP3. Now, I’ve never owned or used an MP3 before so I don’t know how to do this.
The MP3 came in a box with just 3 other items: a battery, a pair of headphones on a lead, and something that looks like an extension cable.
The extension cable doesn’t fit into the MP3.
The headphones do.
There’s still a spare rectangular hole at the end of the MP3 when the headphones are in.
Obviously I don’t know what the hell I’m doing here…how do I use an MP3?
Do I need to buy something else to go in the end of it?
Hopefully over the weekend I’ll be able to find a neighbour to help me but in the meantime…HELP!!!
And yes the instructions are useless!
Thanks…

Well if the MP3 player came with a CD I would recommend installing the applications onto your computer and using those to load the music. If it did not come with a CD, an MP3 Player is essentially the same thing as a USB drive, or a external hard drive. What you need to do is plug whatever cable came with it in your computer's USB port and then plug the other side into the connection that corresponds to it. If I had a model number or specific MP3 Player I'd be able to describe it more accurately, but for now this the best one can do without a description. Second, once you have plugged it into your computer and your computer recognized the device, navigate to the My Computer icon, and the look under Devices with Removable Storage, you should have something that is described as a Removable Disk. Next, open that up and place the MP3's in whatever folder is located in there, and if there is a Music folder, place it in there. Goodluck I hope this was of help!

mp3 players come with a simple basic kit.The mp3 player itself,a battery if uses aa or aaa(most new player have a rechargeable lithium battery built in,)headphones, a computer interface cable, and software.
your first step is to plug your mp3 player into the interface cable and plug the cable into your computer(it should plug into a standard USB port) check your computer maunalto find where they are on your laptop or desktop.Now insert the software cd in and install the basic program, it should install the drivers for the unit and software for organzing your mp3 tracks and ripping software for converting your cd 's into mp3's
You may want to starting convreting a few cd tacks to mp3's and tranfer them to your player.The computer interface cable may also act as a charger if your mp3 player has a rechargable battery.Make sure your player is full charged.If you still have problem got to the manufacturers web site, there should be a support section for frequently asked questions

What type of mp3 is it? you could have listened to those cds that you saved from your computer.
Transfer the song from your computer to the mp3 player by plugging the extension cable in the comp and the mp3 plyr. and u can listen to the songs from the mp3 plyr by using ur headphone.
