Ay up can anyone 'elp me wit Wippet?!?!

Just subscribed to Wippet for mp3 downloads. First time I have done anything like this.

I have an o2XDA Mini S, which is also an MP3 player. I have down loaded some tracks and put on to my storage card. When I try and open them all I get is an error report 'There is no application associated with...'

How do I get this to play?

Any ideas gratefully received.:beer:

    Open up your mp3 playing program and then use it to navigate to the music files. I don't know the xda, but that's how you do it on my Ax.
  • Cheers, but what mp3 program, cos windows media or pictures and video isnt doing it!

    If you are using windows media the file format wont be Mp3 it will be WMA however this should work still with as the XDA has windows mobile which has Windows Media ,

    how ever my advise would be to make sure the files you are using are in fact Mp3 , (right click on the file ,go to properties) if not you will need a converter ,

    CDEX is a good one for converting CDDA to MP3

    you can get it here LINK
    If it doesn't fit, force it; if it breaks, it needed replacement anyway

    Are you actually downloading an mp3 file? some legal online music download places dont actually give you an mp3 file make sure you get an mp3 media player on the xda will play mp3 without a problem. thats why i ask.

    That's exacty what I thought. The XDA is an MP3 player, the files I have downloaded are mp3 from Wippet but I can't get them to play ! Aaaaaagggggggghhhhhhhhhh

    When I try and play the file in Windows media it says ' The parameter is incorrect'.
