Q: There is no sound from Bluetooth music?

Q: There is no response when clicking to download the phone book?

A: After establishing a Bluetooth connection, when you click "download" on the phone book, your mobile phone should receive a request to download contacts. Confirm and allow the download request.

Q: No data updates the first time I plug in an SD card or USB in the music player?
