I found my old Fisher Price record player that I used to love, so I put the lilac record on and tried playing edelweiss. It didn't work, the record was spinning and the arm stayed on the record, but all I heard was some little ticks and small sounds. Even when I tried the other records the same thing happened. I tilted back the record to see the needle and all I can see is the little comb (like the ones in a music box) that's how it makes the sound with this kind. But I don't know how to fix it, if it's the comb where can I get it replaced and can I do it myself?

First I would try to tape a penny to the top to see if it works.
