I just want to do a straight transfer to MP3. How do I do that?

Pop a cassette tape into the player. Plug the player into the usb port, press the play button and use the software to transfer it over. It was very easy to do and you even have the option of editing if you want to do that. One of the best purchases I have made in a long time. Very easy to use and more than worth the price.

you CAN use your itunes card for your mp3. It will just take a little more effort. Once you purchase music on Itunes, burn it onto a regular audio disk, (one that will play in a stereo - not mp3), then reimport the disk into itunes as mp3 (see under itunes preferences, importing. Have fun with the tunes.

not unless you purchase the mp3 export upgrade from Steinberg. I believe you are given 20 or so mp3 exports before you have to buy the export upgrade, which then will give you unlimited mp3 export. i know because I have been using Elements 7 for the past year and I bought the mp3 upgrade about three or so months ago. Before that I just did the conversion from wav file to mp3 in iTunes.

It is as simple as plug it into your computer via USB cable then drag and drop songs into the music folder, I have almost a gig of music on mine and not half used.... this is probably the best little MP3 player I've seen.

You just need to create a playlist in Windows Media Player and then drag that whole playlist over to synch it up.

The software most of us use is Exact Audio Copy. Use FLAC and not MP3 format.

Yes, any mp3 can be loaded onto and used on it as long as the file isn't corrupted

Yep pretty darn easy, connect to your computer via supplied USB cable. That's how you load your mp3s on and off as well as the WAV files you record.

Unfortunately I have never used this feature, but I can offer some advice: rip the music into a 24-bit codec with the highest sample rate you can. (i.e, not MP3)

I did not attempt to change the format. All the files I had were mp3+g and all I did is transfer them from a usb stick to the hard drive.

Check out what Sandisk sent me this solved my problem! Sign up for their "Ebox" and you'll get an email like this:Go to their website and download their "Firmware Updater" Then once you have that installed, switch your "USB MODE" to whichever you're not using to transfer music. Then plug it in to the computer, go to "My Computer" and right-click on "Sansa" and click "Format" THIS WILL CLEAN THE WHOLE MP3 PLAYER. Then you run the "Firmware updater" that you downloaded and it should update to the newest settings. Then just switch your "USB MODE" back and transfer music/vids/whatever.Hope this helps Check out what Sandisk sent me this solved my problem!

In iTunes, go to Help, Index Tab, MP3, and select "Saving a copy of a song in a new file format" and follow the directions (by selecting MP3 as your format). Note: this is not just for importing new music as it may appear in the description. You have to change the Import Settings in Edit, Preferences, General Tab before you can change the format in your Library. The entire collection can be reformatted by Selecting All, Advanced, Create MP3 Version. Good Luck!

You can use it with any mp3 format. Transfer from your computer after connecting the cable

Most probably the file is protected and that's why you can't copy it. Convert it to mp3 (just put "free wma to mp3 converter" in google and you will find plenty of freeware programs) and try to transfer it to the Coby player again.

Simply play your MP3 in real time into one or two of the input channels will give you a mono or stereo source to overdub. RCA AV jacks, XLR or 6.5mm (1/4in) phono all work. I don't recall being able to upload from a PC in MP3 format, but direct recording of your MP3's output signal should be a breeze!
