My MP3 Player is not connecting to my being read by anything...

[IcyTech]

I have a RCA Mp3 Player TH1814WM-A

Im not sure what happened, I think I might have taken out the Mp3 player from my PC without ejecting it. I usually do ejected but I didnt do it this time because I didnt add anything to it. Or maybe I did but I really dont think so. So I'm guessing that is what messed it up......

Well now it wont work on anything I plug it into. When I put it in my PC it used to say an unknowned USB devise is detected or something like that. So I uninstalled the devise from the PC (Although I was pretty sure that would not solve the problem considering it wouldnt even show up on my PS3 either) and now whenever I plug it in my PC it will try to install it but it fails every time. I can listen to songs on it but I cant add or remove songs since I cannot open the files. Please Help!


EDIT: Sorry for the screwed up topic title lol

something similar happened to my mp3 player once. i took the battery out for a minute and restarted it and it worked fine. i also had to download updates for it once. you can try that too

Well my MP3 player uses AAA batteries so I ended up switching batteries a couple of times since it stopped showing up on my PC and I still cant open its files on my PC

TH1814wm not recognized by computer

I have the same mp3 player, and it did exactly the same thing. When I first connected it, the computer saw it and installed the software. I put some music on it and it played fine. When I plugged it into my computer again, the computer wouldn't recognize it and tries looking for drivers for "unknown MTP device". I've tried plugging it into several other computers and nothing will recognize it. I tried taking the batteries out to reset it, but that didn't work either. Everything I read online expects it to be recognized as soon as you plug it in, which it doesn't. I know i can't be the only one having this problem.
