Connecting to the computer
• Rotate the USB plug out of the player body and connect the player to your PC as shown.
• The player will turn on automatically and display "USB connected" on the display. The player will appear
as a drive letter on your computer, a Mass Storage Class (MSC) device, and behave as a detachable drive
for file transfer in one or both directions.
• The RCA easyRipTM Media Software installer is stored on the player. Go to My Computer (XP users) /Go
to Computer (Vista and 7 users) in the Start menu, find and open the drive letter associated with the
player (i.e. RCA MP3) and then double-click the rcaeasyrip_setup.exe file to launch the installer.
• The software installer can be deleted from the player after installation to free up more storage space*.

• It may take several seconds for the player to be detected. Click View -> Refresh in My
Computer or Windows Explorer to make sure the player has been detected.
• The player is capable of transferring files at USB 2.0. If a USB 2.0 port is available on your
computer, use it to connect to your player. The player is still backward compatible with the older USB
1.1 ports; however, you will not be able to take full advantage of the potential speed increase.
• IMPORTANT: Do not disconnect the USB cable from either the PC or the player during the software
installation.
