To get sound again or to get the buttons to work again, you may need to place the STA013.bin file in the root directory, remove batteries for 5 minutes then reinstall. Some units are different and require it to be in a directory called BIN (all caps).

I loaded the file in the memory of my JAMP3 player but I could not solve the problem. As soon as I play a file, the buttons do not work anymore (only the pause works) and no audio comes out from the jack.
Any other suggestion?

Charlie, do you have the driver and/or installer for the Mac? The Control Panel says that there is a driver missing, and it can’t work without it! Thanks

Yep; see main post for an additional SEA file containing the USB Driver and Shim file (whatever the hell that is). –cfs3

I mistakenly deleted the bin file and used this one, worked like a charm, you are the man. MP3 player actually isn’t that bad with the exception of the tiny bit of internal memory. sure beats the heck out of spending 300 bucks on a nice one to only use for running. thanks…..

Thanks a million… really appreciate the selfless act of posting that little nugget. In practical terms, was almost not worth it since I burned up the price of a new MP3 player in time trying to find this file, but very, very much appreciated anyways in terms of satisfaction to get the damn thing working again!

your file worked the jamp3 loads and plays mp3 just fine put it will
not let the MMC play back songs

Songplay from the MMC is always a seperate issue from the .BIN file. There are a bunch of reasons an MMC card won’t work. The JamP3 is known to be sensitive to specific brands of memory chips, so some MMC cards will never work. The biggest problem, though, appears to be the format of the MMC card. If it’s formatted in Windows XP, it will have the FAT12 format, which the JamP3 cannot read. You need to find a Win 9x machine, install MusicMatch, and use that to format the card - Win 9x machines will format the card with FAT16, which the JamP3 can handle. –cfs3
