Possibly, yes.
Download dbPowerAMP and re-encode the ones that don't work using LAME. Unfortunately, dbPowerAMP costs money thanks to its LAME support (which apparently isn't free anymore), so you'll have to get it via, erm, alternate means.

No. The encoder doesn't affect compatibility, basically. Maybe they're VBR (variable bit-rate) and your player can't cope with that, or are some weird sample rate.

Okie dokie, contrasting answers. 
LAME is definately the superior encoder though: I've compared the other ones and LAME has the better quality.
Can't hurt to re-encode them.

The program you use to upload them...Does it say anything? If it was good it'd say certain MP3's need converting to work.
What does your MP3 do? Does it just refuse to play it or is there no sound?
If it was an Ipod it'd be easy to fix...I wonder if someone else owns the same MP3 player.

LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder ftw. No one cares about warez talk, it would seem. It rules and we all know it.

1. Pull out the mp3 player.
2. Plug in headphones
3. mp3 player turn [on] off.
4. Shove aforementioned mp3 player deep up your bum bum.
See if that helps anything
Welcomes in advance.

If it's a good MP3 player, it'll be reading the ID3 tags embedded in the MP3 file and not the file name.
All you need to do is open up the tag (you can do it in Windows by right clicking the file, going to Properties, hitting the Summary tab and then hitting advance. Mp3 software players will do the job too) and add in information for track number and album.
So one of the albums would be called "Book 1" which would then have track numbers for each of the discs, in the order they need to be.

I got one of those damn old ones when they first come out. Can't even select what tracks you want to hear, it can only be shuffled or played in the order that you place the mp3s in. 
That said, I've never been bothered.
