I have a newly purchased mp3 player that is not registering in disks and devices for me to mount it
I have a newly purchased mp3 player that is not registering in disks and devices. I don't see an icon to mount it. Thanks in advance.

What is the make and model of the player?
Post the output of the lsusb command for the player. Not all MP3 players appear as flash drives, many are MTP based or have an option. I agree with the wiki, MTP is messy. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Med...nsfer_Protocol |

Do you know which device is associated with the player? Unplug or plug it in and see what changes.

As root, run "dmesg -c", then plug the device in and run dmesg again. Also, run "ls /dev/sd*" before plugging in and after. |
Not sure Parrot is a great base for multimedia. I might be tempted to use a mainstream live distro and plug this in.
MTP tools may need to be used. I forget the other transfer method but there may be a block size issue later. |
Is there any indication in the output of dmesg that the system was trying to enumerate the player?

dmesg outputs the contents of the kernel ring buffer and the dmesg -c clears the ring buffer. Should not affect anything else.

If you plug in the device and look at the last 20 or so lines you should see something about a new device found.
