Save your mp3's in ID3 v2.3 (iTunes is best for converting ID3 tags, just select, right-click, then click "convert ID3") |

TECH. HELP!!
We got a RCA RD2826A it came with a universal charger ( select a volt from 3v-12v) well it was on a higher voltage. When my son plugged it in everything went black and hasn't turned on again. I am assuming that there is a chip / diode/ resister or? that burns up. Can anyone shed some light on this. The thing is brand new . Are we totally screwed or can it be fixed?
Thanks, Dave |

I have a Rca lyra RD1028A i first had a problem where i had all my music working and I just added new songs and while i was out skateboarding my Rca lyra froze up and wouldn't change at all so i popped out the battery and put it back in, when it came up it just froze right as it start up, after about 2 weeks of looking up, i formated it and it worked again, i put all my music on and everything, about 2 weeks later, it did the same thing only this time when i formatted it, after i put music back on or even right after the format it says RCA then goes to a screen and says please wait, and does that over and over, and nothing else i would like to know how to fix it if you can help at all it would be greatly apreciated thank you..

I own an RCA RD1028A with a 1g sandisk card. For the MOST part My player works well. My issue is that no matter how i format or upload songs to it, the songlist MAXes out at 238. i emailed the company, but I am not going to hold my breath. Any Ideas? |

I just cured the prob, upload the latest firmware from rca, then use your favorite method to put the mp3 on the rca. Then just simply rename the mp3 to .mpy
Of corse you got to "show file extensions" |

I just got an rd2315a. I got the fm to work. But the system locked up in the radio function. I take out the battery and hold the stop button down for 10 seconds. But when I load the battery and turn the device on it goes back to the radio. Menu does not seem to work. Called help line and was told to send the puppy back for a replacement. Is this my best course? I will be using linux and am not looking for trouble. Am I just seeking grief? |

Okay...I'm having problems. I just downloaded as much music as I can to my RCA 1028 and now I need more space. Some of the songs that are on there AREN'T suppossed to be there. I'm following the little manual thing and it's telling me to push mode and dsp and all that, but when I do that, the Lyra just keeps making me change the "DSP" from jazz to rock to all that nice stuff. Anyone have any ideas? I feel really dumb right now...thanks a bunch.

I have a RCA Lyra 1028a, why can I only get 23 songs on it? That is a total of 90 minutes. According to the information it should hold more. Any thoughts? |

Help --- I just purchased an RCA LYRA Model RD2212 - it's the sport MP3 player. I am having nothing but problems installing it. My computer which is using XP indcates it cannot find the driver for this after I have hooked up the USB.. Any ideas? The drivers apparently on the CD that came with are for Win98... I installed what downloads were available from the RCA site but I am pretty sure they didn't include drivers. All help and suggestions appreciated. |

I recently purchased music through iTunes and thought I transferred it onto the Lyra. Well from the computer, when hooked up via USB, it says that the songs are on the Lyra, but when I unplug it, they are not available to play. I don't understand at all. It looks like the music files are in folders, they don't look the same as the songs I ripped from CDs. I've already spent hours trying to figure this out on my own, and it seems useless. Any advice.... other than to go buy a new MP3 player? |

Hi....any help would be appreciated. I have an RCA RD1076A, no memory card. I downloaded maybe 40 songs to it, I can play them all, no worries. Now I want to add more songs, but now when I plug it into the USB port my computer doesn't recognize it. It comes up in my computer as drives E and F...but when I click on them...drive not accessible. I tried a friends computer and it worked, the computer recognized it. What am I doing wrong on my computer |

I Have a RD1076B Lyra player. It is the 512MB player. Here is what I have found. It plays songs in alphabetical order. It CANNOT understand numbers. So if you have files named 101.mp3 102.mp3 etc it plays them in RANDOM order. What stupid engineers.
Also I think it is limited to reading the 1st 8 charecters, then it again is random. This makes listening to books on tape not work at all.
You need to go to http://www.1-4a.com/rename/ and download the freeware rename software and add Alphabetical renumbering... IE: AA, AB, AC. only way it works.
Also if you want more than 138 files to show up make a folder for each 138 files.
Even though it lists 512 as the largest SD card supported, I have a SanDisk 2 gigabyte card that fully works.
Although it only supports 600 total files.
ALso if you have a small version of the player IE 128 K use GOLDWAVE (shareware) to compress MP3's to 64K WMA's. Saves around half the disk space and sounds exactly the same in my ears. Use the batch rename feature

RCA RD2010A
Been using this for some time now.
Works great, except for the fact 1gb cards that are filled with more than I think 256 tracks will not play all tracks. They can be under different directories, named in different ways, with tags, without tags, seems to not matter. Any suggestions would be helpful. Possibly a hardware limitation due to the random play feature (creates a list, not random). I have the latest firmware v1.51. Any other firmware? Any better sd player out there? |

I got a RCA Lyra RD2765A. I had just unplugged my Lyra from my computer after I finished adding some more songs. Later when I hooked it back up, my computer said something about it not being able to recognize the USB device because it had malfunctioned. I looked at my Lyra and the screen was off. I then unplugged it and ti=ried to turn it on. Still all I got was a blank screen. Usually I can hear the harddrive inside spinning and feel it heating up. I noticed that it was heating up but I did not hear the harddrive spinning. Can anyone help me out here? |

Well I have been gone for awhile. I had my LYRA RD 2010 start having some of the problems listed above.. but the most annoying one that caused me to put it up for awhile was the replaying of the same few songs. That was horrible. One of the first things that i have done since i have gotten it back out is to put that thing into it. the neoprene case..{as I MAY have droped it 2x}. AS far as putting songs on it... i have given up using the onboad memory as I too have a 1gig card that i have as yet to completely fill as to move onto the onboard256. AS far as the right card. I bought 3 cards before finding that LEXOR... {bought at SAM"S} finally worked.
AS far as the cord issue .. when it says use the cord that comes with you device what ever device that might be I am beginning to believe it.
AS for the 2.0 cord that i don't have a 2.0 usb intake mine works fine.....SO FAR.
I too am concerned about where are all those songs that i put on my 1 GIG are as i have over 150 and I am certain that either the shuffle doesnt reach them or there is another issue. Got any ideas??
And after going over my post.. sorry guys for using AS FAR AS sooooooooo much!! |

Rafa, I'm right there with you. I've been an Audible user for a few years now getting by with just the most basic of mp3 players. I bought the RCA Lyra 2312 on-line 1 month ago as an upgrade to what I had been using. It's been working fine but the one thing it can't do that my "cheap-o" player could do was "bookmark" your spot in the audiobook. It's is really frustrating on the Lyra to always make a mental note of the hour, minute, second position in the audiobook before hitting "stop" and then having to FF to get back there to begin listening again. I just sent an e-mail to RCA and was looking for other help on-line when I found this forum. If I hear back from them I'll post it here. Don't worry, your's was not a "stupid" question. |
