Can anyone help me? The device I am having problems with is the NETAC A100 Car MP3 / WMA Player, but I suspect that the problems occur in other devices also.
The big problems are:
- I load some WMA files, and get an error message on the device >NO FILES< which is obviously wrong, as you can see the files are still there using Windows Explorer. I think I know how to fix this - see below.
- I also get the same message >NO FILES< for a different reason (see below).
- For no reason that I understand yet, the device will suddenly starts deleting all its files every time you try to start playing music, and you will get that exasperating message >NO FILES< yet again, only this time it means what it says - it really has deleted your files. Actually, if you connect the device to your computer and examine it with Windows Explorer and check the "Properties", the deleted files are still taking up space on the device but are now totally inaccessible.
The full details of the problems, and what success I have had so far in fixing them, can be found here for anyone who would be kind enough to help:

This is also a trouble shooting guide in the making which hopefully will help other people!
I really would appreciate any words of wisdom... thanks!
