Question 1. My computer does not recognize my player.
Answer:

player;

computer);

the USB connection. Windows and Macintosh often write extra files to the hard disk such as
finder.def or System volume info. These are normal and will not do any harm to the player.
Question 4. I used my player to transfer files back and forth between different
computers. Will defragmenting the player hard disk do any harm to it?
Answer:
Defragmenting the player hard disk may be useful after having transferred many files to and
from the player. It is never harmful to use the defragment on the player. Make sure no other
