Without knowing which mp3 player it is – here are a few general suggestions:

* Try using a different usb port on your computer. Also, if you are using any hubs- dissconnect them and hook the usb directly to the computer.

* Go to the official maker of the player’s website – look for any firmware updates, download and install.

* Reformat – this will DELETE EVERYTHING on the player- but it might fix the problem (so if you have back up that shouldn’t be a problem):
My Computer –> right click on Portable Drive / Device / MP3 Player –> Format.
