will this work on ps3? MP3 players can be managed on the ps3 but can this?

Actually this drive can be used perfectly fine with a PS3. I am currently using it as external memory for backup of any data as well as to watch movies on my TV after downloading them on my computer. The contents can be easily accessed if you simply go to any menu option such as Movies or Music on the PS3 and then pressing the Green Arrow on the PS3 controller to select the option "Display All". This will allow the PS3 to display all folders, instead of looking for Movies or Music in only the first folder of the drive and then giving you an error such as "No Information" or "No Files Located". After that you can just green arrow your way through the folders to find what you are looking for. Mind you however that while you are under the option Movies in the PS3 menu you will not be able to access Music while browsing the Folders on your My Book and vice-versa. Basically if you want to listen to Music stored on your My Book you would have to access the Music option on the PS3 menu, and then find the storage device and select Display All and go on from there. Same goes for everything else.

Yes. Beware though. I have found that mp3s that are recorded at a higher than average (above 128k) tend to cause this player to skip through the songs about every 3ish seconds.

If they are CDs or on a flash drive, you should be able to. I returned my player because the the cable connection was loose and I had to hold it in to use. Too bad, because the idea of combining an MP3 with a CD player is good.

This does not work "with" an MP3 player, rather it "is" an MP3 player. It has a MicroSD slot to read and play a MicroSD chip containing your MP3 files. It has a 3 button control, left, centre and right. If you briefly hit the left or right button you will regress or advance one song (file) if you hold either button beyond a second or two, they will then function as volume controls. The center button pauses or resumes play. There are no instructions with this product, as the vendor apparantly doesn't feel the need to invest in the effort of providing an English description of the device. This is not a Bluetooth headset, there are other models from this vendor that do provide Bluetooth playback, however be very careful as each model of this headset has a limited function and you must very carefully review the desription to be sure it will do what you want.

IT doesn't work for ps3, it is for a separate head phone and mic set up. The usb device will not register, the ps3 will only take turtle beach, ps, or any head phone/mic, set up labeled for ps3 use, and most blu tooth head sets/mic.. i actually called Sony playstation division

Yes, it will play music files (mp3, wma, etc.) on a usb drive and it works with file folders on the drive. You can even use it to charge.

I could not make it work with PS3. I googled it and others also can not. I think PS3 is not campatible with any USB headset. The PS3 recognizes the Arenas, as they are listed under devices, but you can not hear any sound. To the person who said it works: Have you actually done it with straight USB?

I imagine it can but don't waste your money. I have had nothing but trouble with this junk since I got it. Like having to reset it EVERY time I charge it and many times while listening. Somany times infact that after only 3 months the reset stopped working all together. I have the old unit also and it still works most of the time. You may be better off looking at a Sansa Clip or one of the other Sansa units. Creative seems to have lost the ability to make a decent MP3 player.

Unfortunately it isn't compatible with ps3 but like the others said get a adapter and you'll do just fine, and by the way the headphones are totally worth it for the price.

For it to work on your PS3 the format needs to be FAT32, need to reformat it from NFTS to FAT32.

works fine with PS3.. The only problem I have is that there arent enough input jacks, meaning that since I have a XBOX360, PS3, and a Wii, I have to keep changing the rfa input jacks. I havent yet found a switch that produces a good enough quality to use.

No, it's not. Your way is probably the easiest way to do so. The player I purchased was supposed to work with a USB connection along with its software, not to mention it was literally breaking as I began to use it. It's worthless. Don't spend your money on it. I would buy an old Sony Walkman instead.

It has a standard headphone jack (3.5mm) input in the back so it would work with any mp3 player that has a headphone jack. You can pick up a cable on Amazon or anywhere that sells audio equipment for a couple bucks. Only drawback would be that it doesn't charge the device.

Good question. I just tried it out by reversing the 3x 1/8" from my desktop to the adapter and that to the headphones (although you can use speakers, i just had my ps3 headphones on hand and used the RCA passthough and connected that to the RCA end on the adapter). And it did not work. Absolutely no sound came out, I guess its only one direction that it functions. Hope that helped.

it works for the ps4 OBVIOUSLY. but the main thing people want to know is does it work with headphones that have mics but does not have a mic plug? i have earphones that have a mic with one plug for sound and mic.
