Bought a 1G mp3 player. After 122 songs it stops and says cannot copy folder.
In actual fact the device is full. I have un-installed and re-installed the
CD that came with it. Any one have any clues?.....thanks

You might try formatting the 1gb drive to ensure that every bit of space is
available.

Right click on My Computer and select Manage. On the following screen,
click on Disk Management. The 'removable drive' (ie the MP3 player) should
show up on the right hand side of the screen.

Your player's capacity is "up to" 240 songs (per Apple), and only you know
whether your songs are long or short.

My reply is at the bottom of your sent message:

Maybe the 122 files = 1 GB? Try removing all the stuff on there (access it
directly through My Computer like you would a harddrive) and then adding
your music again.
