How do I install my Philips KEY Ring Audio player?

Published on 2017-08-24

All the Philips KEY Ring Audio players support USB Mass Storage Class. On first connecting the player with a PC running on Windows ME, 2000 or XP via the USB connector, an application will launch and the unit will be recognized as a USB Mass Storage Class device. It will be automatically listed as a ?removable drive? in Windows Explorer, therefore no separate installation of driver is required. However you may also wish to install the MUSICMATCH Jukebox to manage your music files. 1) Insert the installation CD into the CD ROM drive. 2) Select your preferred language and then click OK to move to the next screen then select the desired product. 3) You will then be prompted with an option whether you want to use MUSICMATCH Jukebox to transfer between your KEY Ring Audio player and your PC. (If not, you can skip the option and simply use Windows Explorer for file transfer.) 4) If you want to use MUSICMATCH Jukebox: * Select install MUSICMATCH Jukebox with the plug-in, or * Select just to install the plug-in if you already have a higher version of MUSICMATCH Jukebox on your computer. 5) Follow the instructions on-screen to complete the installation. You can then hook up the player to start downloading your music files. For a PC running on Windows98 SE, a separate driver has to be installed BEFORE hooking up the player with the PC. The driver may be installed by going through the steps below: 1) Simply insert the installation CD into the CD ROM drive. 2) Select your preferred language and then click OK to move to the next screen then select the desired product. 3) An application will run automatically checking whether a driver has been previously installed on the PC. If not, then the installation of the driver will start automatically. (If the application did not launch automatically, try opening and closing the CD tray to initiate the application). 4) You will then be prompted with an option whether you want to use MUSICMATCH Jukebox to transfer between your KEY Ring Audio player and your PC. (If not, you can skip the option and simply use Windows Explorer for file transfer.) 5) If you want to use MUSICMATCH Jukebox: * Select install MUSICMATCH Jukebox with the plug-in, or * Select just to install the plug-in if you already have a higher version of MUSICMATCH Jukebox on your computer. 6) Once the driver is installed, you may hook up the unit to your PC for downloading your music files via Windows Explorer.
