I would like to set the device as factory default. There are two choices when setting the device as factory default.
-
Connect the device to PC and format as FAT32 file system. Note that this procedure will erase the data in the device.
-
Delete the PARAM.CFG file in the System folder.
-
The player does not turn on.
If the battery is completely discharged, charge the battery before you start the player. The charging time may vary depending on the battery's discharge status. If the player does not work at all, press the RESET button on the rear side. For your information,
RESET will just disconnect the power and does not damage the product or delete any files stored on the device.
- The touchscreen and buttons do not work properly. Check if the power switch is positioned to HOLD.
- I can't hear any sound.
Check if the volume is set to "0".
Check if there is any file available in the player. If there is no file in the player, you will not hear any sound. Please note that corrupted files will result in a noise or discontinued playback. Make sure the earphones are connected properly. Impurities in the earphone jack can cause a noise.
- Files that I have stored do not appear in the list. Each mode shows you a list of playable files only. To view all files that you have stored, select the Browser mode. Please note that System folder will not appear in the Browser.
+ Troubleshooting
+ Album image is not displayed in Music Mode
In order to display album image, the image has to be stored in the ID3 tag of the music file. You can edit the ID3 tags using COWON MediaCenter - JetAudio. A JPG image file with the same name as the relevant music file should be stored in the player. Alternatively, a JPG image file named "cover.jpg" can be stored in the relevant folder.
+ Video won't play.
Movie files that do not play properly on the product may need to be converted by COWON MediaCenter - JetAudio.
+ FM Radio does not work.
COWON S9's earphones work as the FM Radio antenna. Straightening the telephone cable will result in better radio reception. FM Radio reception may be poor at locations where FM Radio transmissions are shielded. If FM Radio does not work where reception should be possible, please contact our service center.
+ There is too much noise in my recordings.
COWON S9 uses ultra-small internal microphone, so it may be more susceptible to noise during recordings. The internal microphone of COWON S9 is located on the rear side. The microphone should not be covered with anything during recording.
+ Characters on the display are corrupted.
Set your preferred language again in Settings > Display > Language. If the problem persists, set the current font to the system font. COWON products are developed based on the Korean Windows OS, and this may cause corruption of some special fonts or languages on the display.
+ Computer cannot recognize the player when connected.
Try the RESET button in the back.
If you experience a frequent disconnection or unstable connectivity, connect the player directly to the USB port of the PC, rather than a separate USB hub. As COWON products use the USB connection for the main power system, unstable power supply can cause a connection failure.
+ Troubleshooting
+Memory capacity of the player is different or smaller than specified.
The memory capacity indicated by Windows may be different from that indicated by the memory manufacturer. The actual capacity will be reduced from the original size because some space of the memory should be used as the system area for normal operation.
- COWON S9 does not play properly when memory is full.
For COWON S9 to function properly, it requires at least 5 MB of space for saving settings and other system files.
