hey there. i have had my sony bean for roughly 7 hours and i am having the same problem. i had it in my sisters computer and it worked, and then i took it out of my own and it shows the access upload bar, the last song that was played, and then a whole bunch of fractions and stuff like that. My only conclusion for either of us is that the mp3 players have been uploaded with a virus. It has been happening alot recently.
I just got a NW-E305white walkman bean. SO i charged it on my computer and it worked. I used it for like 5 days on and off since it can go for about 50hrs playback. I charged it on my roomates computer through the pop us USB jack and it charged but then after I took it out, the player wouldnt turn on. I plugged it back in and it charges, but it just doesnt work after taking it out. IF anyone has any idea on what the problem could be please let me know. THank You.
