Hi everyone, i'm leaving on holiday in a few hours and need to know how to remove write-protection on my sisters MP3 Player.

She bought it from eBay, it looks exactly like an iPod Shuffle (but probably a cheap chinese knock-off) So, does anybody know how to do it? Thanks.

armendvisoka , which write protection are you referring to? Do you get the write protection message when you are trying to transfer files into the player?

I'll suggest that you perform a format on your player, guide here http://www.mympxplayer.org/how-to-re...ck-vt2400.html

In some cases the FAT file format can be the problem. For example: I you have a lot of files with large names, the File Allocation Table size may be insuficient. If this is your problem, formating with FAT32 format will be the solution. To format YOUR mp3/mp4 player you must read YOUR MP3/MP4 Guide.
