  USB3.0 ports?

No. My laptop has USB 3.0 ports too. <- this isn't correct

Sorry if you've already answered this - I've lost track of who said what. Have you selected the DAC as the default sound output device? (Or are you in the situation where the computer doesn't recognise it in DAC mode?)

He did, he just didn't plug speakers into it...so...therefore...there's no sound.

  I have the same problem. Actually my player works fine as a DAC with my gf's laptop and with my work PC, but it doesn't work with my laptop (there is no sound). I have no idea why. In all these cases the operating system thinks that the player is speakers, not the USB-DAC.

 
Did they work without any external speakers on your gf's laptop and your work PC?
 

I think your laptops internal DAC is more than capable of handling your stock speakers tho.

 
my laptop's internal DAC sucks, that's why was hoping i'd only need the AK100 to work without any external speakers

Here are instructions for AK120. Now it is suitable for AK100 and you can see how to configure USB DAC (Basics 15).

I'm not sure if I understand your question, because it sounds a little bit strange for me. This player doesn't have any speakers so it can't play any sounds without headphones. If you want to hear anything, you should plug your headphones into the player.

OMG! I see that you are right! The driver for USB3.0 is broken. My player doesn't work with USB3.0 but it works with USB2.0 o____O (my laptop has both: USB3.0 and USB2.0 receptacles).
// OS: Windows 7, 64 bit

The problem hasn't been solved. Does anybody here know how to write drivers =)?

Tagging issues arggg!!
I retagged my album many times but it still doesn't fix the error!
 
Songs are under -
Artist: Glee
Album: The Music, Vol. 1, The Music, Vol. 2 and The Music, Vol. 3 
 
3 albums ( Vol 1, 2, 3), are renamed in the AK100 as "0" and "1"
Vol 1 and 3 are mixed together in the "1" while the Vol 2 is inside "0"
 
however my other 2 albums: The Music, Vol 4 and The Music, Vol 6 is named correctly!
Anyone knows how to fix this?

have you stripped everything from the tags?

Sorry what do you mean by stripped everything?

 

[tm.chen]

remove all information from the ID tags.
 
I tried with iTunes and it only removes IDv3 and not IDv1.
Not sure if you are experiencing the same kind of issue with the tags.

Quick questions guys. Is there anyway to know when the AK100 is fully charged (whether in turned on / off mode)?
Also is anyone still experiencing the unreliable battery indicator on this device? It happened to me where it had half the battery on the indicator but suddenly one hour later it died on me.

Only way I know is to plug it in when switched off and it will show "Fully Charged" on the screen
