Does it have a picture menu to navigate? I'm learning a new (very inexpensive) MP3 player myself, and my answer was to hand it to my 16-year-old son. He flicked through a few screens and set it up (in my case, I wanted the battery to last and the screen display was staying on).

If there are photos to navigate there are probably screens where you can choose the language. After watching him set that one thing it has been a process of trial and error. I still can't get more than one radio station to stay programmed in at a time.

Oh--to download photos into it--plug it into the computer and a (in Windows) dialog screen should pop up asking how you want to open it. Use the "open folder to view files" setting, and then drag your photos into the appropriate folder. I haven't found a way to set any of these things through the computer, only through the device setup screen.

Good luck!
