An MP3 player charged only through the USB port on your computer is fine, if you are always near a computer. If you don't always have a computer on hand to plug your MP3 player into, you'll need to learn charge an MP3 player through an outlet.
Instructions
1. Buy a charging kit made specifically for your MP3 player. Some manufacturers like Sansa make charging kits for specific MP3 players. The kits are available at major electronics stores. They come with a charger that plugs directly into the outlet. You plug the USB cord into the port in the back of a charger and then into your MP3 player.
2. Get a USB wall charger. These are AC adapters that plug directly into the outlet. You then plug the USB from your MP3 into the port on the adapter.
3. Charge your MP3 player on the go. There are also charging kits that plug into the cigarette lighter or power plug in your car. These kits come with a DC power adapter that has a port on the end for you to plug in your MP3.
4. Acquire Apple iPod specific chargers. When you need to charge your iPod music player through an outlet, look for the Universal USB car charger or the Universal USB travel charger made specifically for Apple products.
