I have just received a Fiio X1 2nd gen with original USB cable. I have inserted a 16gb micro SD and connected it to my laptop which is running Windows 7. Unfortunately nothing appears on my computer, so I can't find a way of loading music onto the device.

I could go out and buy a micro SD card converter, but ideally I'd like to find a way to properly connect the device to my computer. I've seen a few websites which tell me to run a disk cleanup and then download software which will solve the issue, but downloading and running random software is always a risk I'd rather avoid. Is there anyone who has had the same issue and can provide some advice?

You can try,

trying a different cable
turning off/on DAP
turning on/off computer
Updating to windows 10

Thats about all the hacks i know of.If all that fails you might have to use a card reader.

Thanks for your help. The cable has worked with other devices, so that's not the issue. I've turned the computer on and off over the past few days while trying to sort this out, so that is also ruled out.
It's disappointing that the product doesn't just work out of the box, but hopefully there is some solution.

Does the X1II light up when you plug it in to your computer? Does your computer beep or anything to indicate the X1 is mounted via usb? Does the card work fine when not in the X1? I've never had an issue transferring files via sub cable with mine running Windows 7 or 10. If you have another cable, I would try it regardless if the one you are using works with other devices. You could try formatting the card with the format took in the X1 and see if that changes anything.

My X1 II does recognise that it's connected and shows the USB connected icon. My laptop also makes the USB connection sound, but nothing shows up. I did already format the card using the X1, but that hasn't helped. As soon as I can find another cable, I'll give that a go.

Isn't there a setting for a car mode? I think either that setting or something close to it actually changed the behavior of the USB port so that it becomes power only...
