Why won't it turn on when not plugged in?

Block Image

I think it is MP3 player, anyway I haven’t used it in a while, and I was wondering if anyone knew why it doesn’t turn on when it isn’t plugged in, I left it charging overnight and nothing, yet it works just fine when it is plugged in.

Hi @sarahrose ,

What is the make and model number of the mp3 player?

Since it works OK when it is plugged in but doesn’t when it is not, it may be that since you haven’t used it for a while that the battery has become depleted beyond recovery (charging it won’t help) and needs to be replaced
