Wish I could help! Unfortunately, the Singing Machine headquarters informed me that there are no replacement parts and no repairs for the CD+G player part of the machine. I can only use it as a speaker system with microphones now. I taped over the CD door because it is useless. Hope you can find a better answer than that. I wasted good money on this product and Singing Machine does not back up their products.

Is the cd in place? You might need to push down on the cd a little, until it clicks into place. If that doesn't work, it sounds like it might be defective.

Actually it doesn't... but printing out the lyrics of ANY song from Lyrics.com (I think thats the website) will do the same thing.... Even better really because you will never have to invest money to add songs to a karaoke system. Don't let the fact that you won't have scrolling lyrics on a screen to stop you from buying this..... It is surprisingly a feature you will be happy with.... the system dubs out the vocals (but I believe you hear them at a faint level which actually helps the singer) I have ordered it and haven't used it but I know quite a few people who have it and had the same concern about the lyrics, none of which are disappointed and are actually happy its made that way!!! Good luck, I hope you buy it and enjoy it!!

To Camilla: I also noticed when I push the play/pause button it shows "no usb". So I push the play/pause button again and the same thing happens. Then I pushed the Mode button that didn't seem to help either. I also noticed it does not respond immediately when you press any button. When I open and close the CD holder it goes back to square one. So now I just keep pushing the play/pause button and sometimes it responds. I don't like this at all. When you read the instructions they are very confusing. I am thinking about returning mine. Hope this helps you decide if you want to keep it.

There is most likely a problem with your radio. I own the same one and all my CDs work perfectly the only time I may have this problem is if the cd is scratched. So, befor buying a new radio check the condition of the cd your playing. If the problem continues id just buy a new one. Wish you luck

CD+G CDs! They sell them in same area as music CDs but in the karaoke section! Google it...

No. You need to buy special cd's that have the words that can be shown on the screen. It can play regular cd's however and you can sing over the voice with the microphone. (But no words will show) my 9 year old really enjoys it!

It will play regular cd's but no words will come up on the screen. I'm not sure about an ipod or iphone I doubt it.

Not pre-loaded with songs. You need karaoke CDs, but it came with one karaoke disk.

It sound a like your computer does not read the disk or something like that. You must have the CD Rom in the computer to play it!

You are having the opposite trouble I had. I put the CDG in and saw the lyrics, but no sound. I think this is a poorly made machine. I returned mine.

I have not had that problem before. Maybe the type of CD or power off then back on again so the player can try to read again. Hope this helps.

Clean your CD from center out to edge, get a laser disc cleaner, check volume knob, function should be set at media you're playing, check power cord, request Amazon to send you a replacement. My unit plays really nice. I wish you a positive outcome.

Yes, If you use a CD-G, and hook the machine up to the TV. Lyrics will not show up on the machine itself.
