how can you get the cassette player to work? Have tried several times and it still won't play my cassettes.

The controls for the cassette are on TOP of the unit. Open the player (eject button), insert cassette, move the slide control on left side of the unit from "radio" to "tape", depress oval "play" button on top of unit. Make certain the cassette is in properly - I put it in upside down the first time. Adjust volume - should work!

I never tried the casette portion - when the cd portion failed and then the radio portion failed - I gave up on the unit.

Hello, button on the left has to be on tape, insert the tape, make sure your tape is rewound to the left, hit the play button and you will see a light on the front display if all is well. Turn up the volume, so you know for sure. Works great for me. Good luck.

The controls for the cassette are on the top. the button on the side has to be on tape. The buttons on the front are for the cassette. That's crazy!! I haven't played mine in awhile and I just tried it and it plays them awfully slow so I won't use it until I find out why it does that!! When I first got it I thought it played pretty good. Also make sure the tape is up and not down. Good luck, hope this helped you. Barb

Put the radio on tape (slide buttons are on the left side) Press the eject button, place tape in compartment and then press the play button near the cd opening. You may be putting the tape in the wrong way. Just turn it around. Good Luck!!!

I meant to say the buttons on the front are for the CD player. Sorry about that!!

You cannot connect a cassette player to this device. The Audio-In or Aux-In port is for a 3.5 mm type jack or plug.

Both the CD player and Cassette player have pause buttons, they both work, although on some occasions when I've paused a CD and than resume play it will be on the same track (song) that I paused it on but it will be in a different spot in the song, usually a few seconds ahead of where it was paused, no big deal though.

Hi CoCo Fox, this Sony SRF59SILVER doesn't support cassette tape playback. -Ely

There is no "Record" button on the player so I would say that you cannot transfer mp3 to cassette.

I gave the recor4d player to my granddaughter. Check the directions that came with the player. Not much help, sorry. Go to a recordplayer repair shop (if you can find one)

Yes, but cassette doesn't work for more than a few months. Get a better brand.

Sorry. It only plays cassettes not 8-tracks. I'm afraid in this day and age, you're going to have to do some searching to find an 8-track player.

You can record with cassette player, the problem I found was that it took a while to play. For some unknow reason, the system was slow. Sorry, I can't tell you more because I returned the system.

No, the cassette player is just a player, not a recorder. That would be a good idea for a product though.

Every several months, my cassette deck rejects the device. What I do is keep the music playing, then keep putting it in a few times until it accepts it. It's been maybe a year since I've had to do it. I would try cleaning the cassette deck if it. I don't see how this thing could destroy a player unless you are being really rough with it.

Yes-this Panasonic Cassette Player works real well with old cassettes, providing that the tapes are in good condition. I use mine all the time to play old tapes that are my favorites. As a matter of fact at the moment I am on vacation in the mountains and had planned to bring my tape recorder so I could play books on tapes, and wouldn't you know it I forgot to pack it. I am so angry with myself as I brought all my cassettes and nothing to play them on. I will need to purchase a second Panasonic to keep in our RV. Toinette

If you tried Sony, try again... I've tried ALL of them, kid you not, and the Sony has the best sound quality of all of them. Most all tapes will "click" a little in the player, and you can prevent that a little by sticking your finger in and slightly moving the tape around as it's playing.. sounds like a lame fix, but it works like a charm. Also, try cleaning your tape deck with a cleaner product, that helps. All n all I love the Sony adapter and so do all the people i recommend it to.

I would say your tapes are bad or your player has a problem. It's only an adapter.

This will depend on your model. Please be sure that your cassette player has a Figure-8 Connecter (2Slot Non-Polarized Female connector that plugs into your device). The 2-Prong Male connector plugs into any US standard outlet.

Yes, it plays cassettes, but we have trouble when playing the tuner. The whole unit shuts down after 15 minutes. It is the second set we have had that does this.

Hello. If everything works without the cassette, its possible the Maxell CD-330 is defective. Look at the heads on the cassete deck, and make sure they are clean. If this continues, contact Amazon for a refund or exchange.They have an excellent return policy! Sorry to hear about your problem. I hope this helps! -G.
