I am buying this for my daughter who would like to wake up to a song -- is this possible if it's connected to a supported mp3 device?

I haven't tried that yet, but from the settings I've seen, I don't think it is possible.

There are songs made of beeps that you could use as an alarm on it, but there's no mp3 player connectivity or anything like that.

yes. you can do it from the mp3 player or you can do it when it is connected through the computer

I do not know. I have not tried to connect an MP3 playing device to this unit...

I had the same problem. I know Coby mp3 players play the wma format, but I don't know about any others.

Yes, but you will need a traditional audio in jack to connect to the external music player. I am not familiar enough with iproducts to know if such a connector exists. HTHs!

I think if want to download audible files to it, you'll just have to convert it to MP3. Hope this helps!

I also bought this item and experienced the same .My advise to you is to format the device then try putting the music on it via USB connector,IF it still doesn't work then there is a possibility that the problem is within the mp3 or USB.

No only a earphone jack - I don't think any mp3 player has a speaker - takes too much power from built in battery.

I wouldn't trust it. Check your manual about USB devices - my Q5 manual specifically states that USB connections won't work with mp3 devices (ie NOT smartphones, ipods, etc) ... so I'm not sure what device you can plug into this USB connection. I'd be surprised if you find any review for this device that says it actually works at all, but apparently some reviews say it will work with a thumb drive or portable hard drive. Who listens to music off of a portable hard drive?!?

Yes. I just add my mp3 files to my usb plug it in the player and press play. The battery lasts around 4-5 hours when fully charged and not plugged in.

We have been able to hook up any type of Ipod or mp3 player no problem. There is a universal speaker plug attached. The specs should give more detailed info. The sound is very clear and loud for such a small speaker.

There is no USB port. Don't know about MP3. I use it for my laptop and iPhone.

There are FM radio and 2 wake up sounds. According to the Philips site: "The selected sound gradually increases in volume to your selected level." This would imply that the wake up sound is indeed selectable.

Hi, I use an MP3 player and it is working for me :), I hope it works for you!

I never tried to connect to the car, but it has a headphone jack. So it should connect the same as any other MP3.

Good Afternoon, I would have to assume it does so since it says it reads MP3. Thank you.

Yes there is an auxiliary input to which you can connect an external mp3 player. Aleast there was last I checked. :)
