No red light when plugged into the computer, either. What do I do about it and can I get those mp3 files off it? Some of my favourite metal songs are on there :bawl::bawl::bawl:
What type of mp3 player is it? Also please be kind and do not curse...you are asking for help after all, be courteous

I can't believe, in this era, how many people don't take the simple precaution of backing up important data. When people have their iPods stolen (and that happens far more often than crashing), they don't just lose the cost of the hardware, they lose all of their music! You can buy an external hard drive with 200GB storage for about $100. When you load a song from your computer onto an MP3 or iPod, copy it to the external drive at the same time. Arguably the greatest advantage of Information Age technology is that nothing ever has to be lost again. So why do people allow themselves to lose things? EVERY PIECE OF COMPUTER HARDWARE WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL. That includes the tiny stuff inside a music player. So prepare for it!
