New member Username: OktravelerPost Number: 1 Registered: Oct-09 | My first post here. I hope I'm in the right thread. Need some help here. I have an iRiver Audio player-iFP-700 series. I've had it for several years and I can not find the CD that came with it in order to download music to the player. I have called the iRiver support twice and you have to leave a message for them to call you back. Imagine that! What kind of support is that? Not good in my opinion because they still haven't called me back! Anyways...I need to know if there is somewhere I can download it online so I don't have to wait and order one. I'm leaving town in 3 days and want to download new music now. Any suggestions?? Thank you in advance! Oh I might add....I'm computer illiterate, so simple steps would be great! Thanks! |

In other words, no software to install. Otherwise, you are probably out of luck since they aren't providing new drivers. |

Then I got an email from iriver and they sent me the link for Vista but it doesn't work. It downloads as a zip file. It is really frustrating me. I guess I will just have to go buy a new one. I guess that's what I get for not keeping up with the CD. Thanks though. |
