    Mp3 player won't show up on the computer
    Just bought an Archos 15b vision off Gumtree, and it's already got quite a few albums on it so it clearly worked before. Now when I connect it by mini USB it has the file sharing symbol for maybe 5 seconds, then goes straight to charging, and won't show up on the computer (tried it on 2 computers too)

    The archos itself isn't registering it's connected, I tried to update it through the mp3 player's controls while it was plugged in and it said "Plug in USB".

    Any ideas?

    Might be worth to try it with different USB cable if you've got spares lying around.
