Most frequently, this is a problem with a driver, bad charging cord, or incompatible device. You might also make sure that the port you are attempting to use is at least USB 2.0 if not USB 3.0. Admittedly, all USB ports manufactured in the past few years have been USB 2.0 at a minimum but if you have an older computer, you may have only USB 1.1 and that could be what is causing you fits.

If you have other devices that use the same type of connector (such as microUSB) to charge, then try plugging such a device into the same cord and see whether the charging works for it. If so, then the problem will not be with the USB port or cord, so that narrows it to the driver or the MP3 player itself.


Without knowing more or seeing it, there is not too much more that I can tell you, so I hope this helps to point you in the right direction. If you have other questions, however, or would like to discuss this further, feel free to drop me a line. I'm always glad to help.

Why doesn't your Chevy Caprice run with the map sensor plugged in?

The Map sensor tells the fuel injector how much fuel the engine needs. If not plugged in, it might start and run for a few seconds, since it usually runs rich to start, but then the computer will not know how much fuel to output, therefore it will stall


Why won't my computer screen turn on?

You either dont have it plugged in or your forgetting to use the power button. If they are on, then turn off the computer, take out the battery, and plug out the charger cord. Hold the power button down for about 30 seconds, then plug the charger into the computer. Then turn on the computer. It should work, this process resets something I can't remember, but it worked for mine.
