Is it just a mp3 not an I pod?

you can try creating two different/separate folders for the different softwares for your two different mp3 players. the new software should however still work for your old mp3 but not necessarily vice versa

if that did not work then you gotta ask help from the ar geeks coz that was the only solution i could think of. good luck
