My daughter's MP3 player will not turn on and when it does happen to go on it doesn't stay on or turns off if she tries to change the song. The batteries are fine.It's a Creative MuVo N200 player[512 MB

I have the same issue with mine as well. It will turn on when it wants to with no guarentee it will stay on. Plugging thru the PC is fine and plays flawless with all the data still their. If anyone has any solutions or things we could try let me know.

mine does that too and i don't know why, in fact i do know why but it isn't possible to be that way that i think

i droped it only once .. nothing happened, worked fine

i used to listen to music going to sleep. did that for couple of times until a morning when my tangent audio mp3 player wasn't able to stay on more than one second. i thought it was the battery which got absorbed (after 7 hours)

i change it and the same. my bed is soft i didn't brake anything in it and i know that because i cracked it and i saw everything is allright in there. in fact i don't know that .. but looks fine, i looked carefully

one i made it play for 10 min holding a finger on the chips, now it isn't working that way either .. now it only goes on and then .. directly off

mt computer is recognizing it and i tryed to format it but nothing .. does the same

on howtomendit.com i read something about 'reset a mp3 player' is there any possibility to do that ?

I can't offer an answer, only say that my player is doing exactly the same thing (same model).

The only other thing I would note is that it will stay "on" when connected to the PC through the USB cable and all data appears intact.
