Customer Service is now in S Korea and not very helpful

This is the second time I had to send my A&K SE 180 back to S Korea, the first it went through Inovixion is CA and it was easy to pay any cost associated with my repair as they accepted a Credit Card. The last time I had to send it via FED-EX on my own and pay $50,00 for a USD Bank transfer which was a nightmare, I ended up paying an additional $45 to complete a Federal USA Bank transfer fee, so to get my unit back, it cost me $90,00 and it took 2 attempts at completing a bank transfer, which was about a month

Difficulty Syncing AK120

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

When I attach the dap to any computer and read the list to be synced it includes over 500 items, mostly symbols, jpeg files, & many useless items; it also has the music Im trying to create on JRIVER MEDIA PLAYER OR ITUNES, it doesnt matter which. I used to use IRIVER4 software but cant it anymore.

Can you please help me ? The original manual says you can make a playlist on the player but I cant seem to to figure out how; please tell me step by stem instructions. Last problem..Jimmy Moon had suggested a long time ago that I need the original cable to make it download correctly, but forgot to send it, maybe because he was leaving; I have not been able to synchronize new music since then & if I have to buy the cable please tell me how. My address is {{redacted}}, United States & I have written several times & sometimes it bounces back or I dont get an answer .

I was an Early Adopter & took a chance for a lot of money & think you would help me when I ask. Actually I have a new playback problem; when I play a song the player goes from the play symbol to pause symbol & stops playing until I press it again; any suggestions?

Thanks, I appreciate your help with all of these issues; the AK120 might be old but still has an incredible sound! I AM NOT A PISSED CONSUMER; I just need some help with this awesome DAP!://static.wixstatic.com/media/0e19a5_22ef5f4d27844edb82b52f9e24c39968~mv2.png/

Bad service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

In the past, I had customer service phone support without issues. Now I cant get anyone on the phone and if I try to email customer support, I am told to pay for just answers to connect me, which is an unnecessary scam.

Hello, wondering if you are able to elaborate on the remarks of "...I am told to pay for just answers to connect me..." if it is proven true, it is truly an unnecessary scam. However, if it is not true, it is a shame to spread false information.

Please share your experience and kindly offer more information. Thank you for your help.
