I Need To Add Songs To My Go Gear Vibe Badly But It Just Won’t Add Please Please Help Me

Listen, I received this Philips Go Gear Vibe 4gb MP3 player for my birthday.
I have wanted one ever since they came out and never could afford one.
I like it, but I ran into problems soon after I received it. First, I had to try and set it up. That is so funny and you would laugh yourself to death if you knew how tech-savvy I am NOT.
Somehow, during set-up, the language switch from English to Russian or some language that looks like Russian. I am not a Russian, so I cannot read all it is trying to tell me.
Again, somehow, during clean up, I have lost my book and the mini-disc so I cannot program it right, if I can ever learn Russian so I can read this thing.
I have tried to download some songs and during set-up, I did get some to download, but now it is empty and silent.
Brothers and Sisters, I need some serious help here. If someone can tell me how to switch the language back to English, I will be eternally faithful to you. I can probably find the mini-disc, but as far as the little book goes, who knows.
If someone can lead me throught the steps or maybe there is a copy on the internet that I can dowload. I need some help here and if I don’t find it, my lovely wife is going to turn into a mean lady, as she is the one who bought it for me at Wal-Mart for $39.99, not much but too much to waste.

Thank y’all if you can help me.

The top of the Vibe is bare, but the bottom is riddled with openings for a mini-USB connection..

personally, i like this mp3 player a whole lot! i wasn’t expecting this little player to play high quality video, and i really wasn’t looking to buy an mp3 player that played high quality videos. one HUGE thing i really like about this mp3 player is the fact that i don’t have to use iTunes/Zune software to add music to it. the ability to drag and drop music directly onto this device is another reason i bought it. the battery life is also excellent. one huge thing to consider when encoding your mp3 collection for usage in any mp3 player: encode them to 64 kbps stereo, not mono. you really won’t notice a huge loss in audio quality, and you’ll be able to fit a TON more songs into your mp3 player. right now, i have well over 1,003 or so songs on my 4gb mp3 player, and there’s STILL room for me to add more songs. this is all because i encoded my music collection to 64 kbps stereo. of course, you could try to encode to 32 kbps stereo, which i have thought about doing, but there could be a serious noticeable loss in audio quality. if not, then i know for a fact that i would be able to add well over 2,000 songs to my 4gb model.

Nice product from Philips, Very nicely designed and with great battery life. Radio and voice recording features are available so it can be more usable
