Are these chargers FRY my Sansa Clip +?

Hello, after doing a lot of research in the USB wall and car chargers I find many stories of fries Sansa Clips in all directions. I have read and understood 5 volts is the limit for this camera, but I can't find the specifications listed anywhere and I am very confused as to what a safe charger would be together. There are a ton of them in the Amazon, but they do not necessarily list their specs, and most of them is not yet affiliated with SanDisk. I live in the United States and I don't own a cell phone, so I'm ignorant by complimenting the USB Chargers. I would appreciate some comments.

Caveat Emptor on any one of these gadgets.  Only plug do not tell the whole story.  Sellers who such things in stock are known for his replacement by products by manufacturers without a name.  Everything just because the specs say they are within tolerances, does not mean that the product will be.

This is one time I would spend an extra dollar or two and get something locally by a merchant of trust.

  • Sansa clip plus and itunes - how to transfer files

    I'm really ignorant, but I would be very grateful for the help.   I did research on this topic here but do not understand the answers...

    Basically, I use itunes on Windows XP.  I just boughts liked a Sansa clip.

    I don't know even what kind of files I have in itunes - they are mostly ripped a CD. I guess they were mp3s but looking at recent postings here it looks like they may be something else (ACC file extensions?).   Anyway, I was fiddling around in itunes but have not been able to verify what are the types of files ('cos I'm ignoring it!)

    Earlier today I just copied some of the songs in itunes, go to Windows Explorer and paste in the section music to the Sansa Clip file.   They played very well...

    Then I went and deleted these files on the Sansa Clip Plus, because they were just an experiment.

    Then I went back to itunes and copied the files over.   This time, when I went to paste the files in Sansa Clip Plus in Windows Explorer, I found the option to paste is grayed out.

    I'm stuck and would be incredibly grateful for the help.   As you can from it of the mess that the above, any guidance I get has to be pretty basic.

    the easiest way is just to look at the files in windows Explorer. go to documents, then music. the music folder to itunes folder. That's where itunes stores all the files. you need to configure the computer to display file extensions for known file types. Find your MP3 files and copy them from windows Explorer, then glue them to the clamp.

  • Questions on Sansa Clip + units purchased in different stores: there are slight differences?

    Hello all-

    My spouse and I bought a SanDisk Sansa Clip + 4 GB in different stores the same day.  We intend to keep only one and the packaging is slightly different, so after a brief purchase background, I have some questions as to the differences between the two in order to solicit advice as to who to keep and which you want.

    CONTEXT OF PURCHASE:

    Two units have been sold at the same price, both have the same UPC and the return of the policies/guarantees for two stores seem to be identical.  The color of each is the same (black) and the exercise of copyright for packing at the rear is 2010 for both, that is: (c) 2010 SanDisk Corpation.  We have not broken the seal on each box and do not want to facilitate the return of one.

    What is different?

    I bought my unit to H.H.Gregg here in the United States, and the number above the same UPC's:

    SDMX18R-004GK-C57

    And here's the UPC number:

    80-56-09564 - 004 G

    My spouse bought at best buy and the number above the UPC:

    SDMX18R-004GK-A57B

    And here is the UPC:

    80 56-09570 - 004 G

    In addition, those bought at H.H.Gregg indicates 'Software Rhapsody', and the Rhapsody logo under 'quick start guide' in the column of "Content" on the left side of the box while one bought at best buy Rhapsody No mention outside of the box.  And with the exception of a white banner with "Sansa Clip + 4 GB" on the face at the bottom of the box purchased at best buy, the type of packaging, graphics and colors look identical.  Both made in China.

    MY QUESTIONS:

    1 - does anyone know of any slight difference between the two?

    2. that contains software Rhapsody and the other and if so is the inclusion of this software an additional benefit?  (Never used Rhapsody, but my understanding is that it is similar to iTunes?)  All opinions on this topic is welcome, although I've never used iTunes and maybe not a similar service.  The software takes more space and it is difficult to remove if I don't want to?)

    3. I suspect the above number ending by "-A57B" (i.e. with a ' B' versus without him) indicates Sansa units shipped to the and sold through Best Buy, where the 'B '.  Is this correct?

    4. However, the numbers which could describe the difference between two low, the middle parts which are "- 09570 -" and "- 09564-"? "»  Is the '- 09570 -"a model a little later?  (Again, the "-09570-" is that of HHGregg, without any indication of Rhapsody.)

    5. who would keep you, or is it just a case of flip a coin?

    Sorry for nit-picky issues, but I recall reading some interest in the version material different numbers with the other units of Sansa and the benefits of one over the other and I was wondering if there might be a hardware update version at play here as well.

    Thanks for your time! :-)

    =================================================

    Changed to correct typo:

    The first issue of the unit to buy at best buy should have a 'B' added at the end, as I was writing it under 'MY QUESTIONS'.  It is:

    SDMX18R-004GK-A57B

    =================================================

    Edit #2 to fix typo:

    "column" vs "colum".

    MM-

    Interesting, thank you for researching it! I tried before that my post came but dry.

    Until then the objective eye differences?  I would be particularly interested in distinctions of subjective performance between the tuner chips, if any, that the radio will receive a daily use.  Also welcome all favor referring to other physical differences such as brightness/contrast screen.

    Still, I guess there is no way to distinguish between the two by the package box numbers and that a practical diagnosis is necessary?

    Thanks to all the other replies, in particular the ideas of Rhapsody.

    (Incidentally, I'm curious to know if there are differences in sound quality - dynamic, range, volume, all - between the Clip + and Sansa alays such as the "rocket" or same-track playback on each indistinguishable?)

    Thank you!

    JVR

    JVR, I don't think that there should be no difference in performance between them. Most likely the changes have occurred due to a different provider offering a better price on a part of SanDisk. My two readers Clip + the two appear identical in every way. And insofar as comparing them to the "rocket", I have two rockets as well, and they seem to everyone to play and hear the same way, at least using the Sansa firmware.

  • Recharge Sansa Clip + with my Samsung 4.4V 400mA travel charger

    Can I use the Samsung BAG-48 (from my digital camera) to charge my Sansa Clip + and listen to the music while it is loaded.

    The technical data are:

    Input: 100-240V ~ 50-60 Hz 0. 2A

    Output: 4.4V 400mA

    Is enough enough?

    Thank you and best regards.

    xanilux

    Well, if the voltage is too high, it can fry the Clip. Don't know where the voltage is too low. Personally, I wouldn't risk, especially when the AC chargers are so expensive. Discover meritline.com where they are, is not uncommon for sale, for well South of $5 shipped.

  • Help! My Sansa Clip + is no longer recognized by my PC when connected by USB port!

    Reading, the latter time, ' said, 'written' only when connected. Normally, he alternates between the 'Reading' and 'Writing' when it is connected to the PC and, therefore, it USED TO BE recognized by the PC in these conditions. The device is not recognized in Windows Explorer as a device or disk as usual. I use Windows 7. The device is not recognized by Windows Media Player synchronization purposes: I can't synchronize playlists of music more.

  • Sansa Clip + crashes

    Hello!

    for some time, I have a 8 GB Sansa Clip + - and I've always been very happy and very pleased with it.

    Yesterday I received news MP3-songs of a friend of mine (music of his group - so nothing illegal). Listened on my laptop - all right.

    So I copied them on my clip, disconnected from the laptop, expected that the database has been updated to a new folder (void) and I wanted to hear new music. The time was the first time I tried, the Sansa logo came, and after a while the setting menu appeared. Then I tried another time, the screen starts to move in the list of music to the play screen (the one with the title of the music and the break...) but the clip got stuck. I can see now on the left half in part list in this folder and on the right half partially the game screen. And that's it: the clip is dead. I can rely on what I want, but nothing happens. I can connect to the laptop, but he doesn't realize the clip. The only thing I can do to wait ist until the battery is empty, and then the player is running again. But only with all the old music (and a few other new music I copied yesterday). As soon as I go to the new folder with music from my friend, I have the same chrash again.

    So I deleted the folder. Make one folder somewhere else and copied the songs to there - same effect

    So I used the Sansa updater - new firmware - same effect...

    .. but as I said - the music on my laptop works perferctly. The only difference I've found (but I don't compared with some old songs) on the new bit of archive is not defined - but I can't test that now I have to wait until the battery is empty for access to my video again...

    Updated - reset funtion works, makes it easier... on the clip, the bit of archive have been set for a reason - but still I put on the laptop and copied their new. No effect.

    After the first error (where the logo appears and after awhile the settings menu) then I can see very short "update database" - I thought that the problem could be here - mtable.sys deleted, disconnected, database has been updated again - always the same s *.

    Someone has an idea of what's going on here?

    see you soon,

    Luis

    The ID3 tags on these new songs are either missing or f'd up.

  • SANDISK Sansa Clip Zip not recognized by WIN 8

    My SANDISK Sansa Clip Zip MP3 player is not recognized by my WIN 8 machine when I connect it via USB.  It works fine on my other machine WIN 8.  Technical support SANDISK told me that the MTP drivers are missing or corrupted.  How do I find, download and install these drivers from the Microsoft site?  Is it also possible to copy these out of the installation of WIN 8 disk I have?

    OK, so I found that this worked for me on win. 8

    1st: hit 'Windows key' 'X', then click on Device Manager.

    2nd: once it go to Universal Serial Bus Controllers, find "USB Mass Storage Device".

    3rd: hit search and edit the material (something like that)

    4th: there are 2 categories, the first to find the driver automatically, and the second looking for your pc.

    5th: click on the first then wait it should work and then it will say that it is recognized and you can sync your Media Player!

    I hope this has helped! :)

  • Transfer from Windows Media Player to Zip Sansa Clip

    In the end, I am creating playlists on my Sansa Clip Zip. So I think THAT I have to create a playlist in Windows Media Player and then sync my Sansa Clip Zip. For some reason any I am only able to see 5 playlists, but I know that I have created several of them. In fact, if I try to create a new play list using a name I know, I created, it is said that there are already. How can I see ALL my playlists?

    Also, if I click on playlists for the Sansa Clip Zip it shows I have 9 playlists, but I can't see what they contain!

    Hi Nymickey,

    I suggest you to contact the Sansa Clip Zip support for better support associated with Sansa Clip Zip and check if it helps.

  • Sansa Clip + question

    Hello, I am really considering buying the Sansa Clip + for the race, and I just want to know one thing.

    When in Shuffle mode and you accidentally skip a song, are you able to return to the song you just jump by pressing the back button?

    I only ask this because my Archos can not, she keeps just still dragging on the back button.

    Thanks in advance!

    Best regards, Daniel.

    Yes.

  • Sansa clip + does not see the audio books I have loaded

    I got my Sansa Clip MP3 player + for two years and it works very well, so far.  I only use it for audio books.  Recently, I reformatted the player and loaded new books in.  When I went to read, the audio books folder was empty.  I have connected the player to the computer again, and the books were in the audio books folder, where I had loaded.

    I've updated the firmware to the V01.02.16A Version, and there was no change.  I tried to reset by pressing the start button. No change.

    Memory has 3750 MB with 3135 free, indicating that there are books in memory, but the player does not see the.  What is going on?

    That's all!  I checked the format of audio files.  It is the AAFC, with suffix .m4a.

    The Sansa manual says:

    "The Sansa® MP3 Player will support MP3, WAV, WMA, secure WMA, FLAC, Ogg Vorbis and audiobook formats.  I guess that AAC is not one of the formats that they support.  So I have to convert .m4a to .mp3.  I guess there are a lot of tools to do it.  Any suggestions about which one is the best?

    Thanks a lot for this revelation.

  • Play OGG tracks, freezes my Sansa Clip Zip

    Hello

    I tried that twice add files ogg to my card 32 Gb microSDHC SanDisk Ultra that I use with my Sansa Clip Zip, and the two times my player froze when he tried to play.

    I simply copy/paste ogg files, so I did not use any software to manage the upload. When I download mp3, I usually use the Winamp player.

    Ogg files are soundtrack of games shipped with my purchase on www.gog.com.

    I do something wrong when I download ogg files? Music plays without problem in VLC media player.

    Thank you.

    The Ogg decoder in the sandisk firmware is pretty buggy and really inefficient power. I talked to them years sending a few corrections (they use the standard decoder open source, just a version older and without much optimization), but who worked all the time, they stopped really about adding new things never happened. If you use multiple Ogg files, you should probably watch using Rockbox. I think the battery life is 2 or 3 times longer due to optimizations, and compatibility is much better.

  • New Sansa Clip + not showing the track titles

    I recently got a new Sansa Clip + as a Christmas gift to replace my old (his helmet came out). I've updated to the latest firmware (even my old 01.02.18A,), and I copied my entire library of music from the old to the new player. Everything plays and works in the same way, except for one thing: on the new drive, the song titles never see the place, and the name of the file is always displayed during playback of a song. My old player would show the title of the song of the metadata instead of the file name during playback if it was available. I checked that the titles are actually there and were not lost through some freak mishap copy, so I'm puzzled as to why it won't work as my old drive.

    Anyone know of the issue and how to fix it?

    Well, Yes, that is my point of view. All tags are there, and all the rest (album, artist, etc.) is displayed in the main screen of the reading and the news section of track except for the title (who, oddly, has never had a track in any case information entry, but that is not the issue).

    ... well that, as strange as it may seem, the titles of the tracks seem to have returned - after, I moved music off the device to analyze the data volume to activate the Clip + Replay Gain. Really weird, but hey, it works now! (Maybe switch to the computer did it, since I initially copied it directly between devices?)

  • I'm having a problem strange sync my 4 GB Sansa Clip + with Winamp

    Sansa Clip + 4 GB

    MTP mode

    MicroSDHC 32GB

    Windows 7 64 - bit Winamp (no additional plugins)

    I recently bought a new 4 GB Sansa Clip + with a 32 GB MicroSD card. Using Winamp, I synced my library on the SD card. Everything went as not expected, no problems to report, I could play all the songs perfectly.

    But now, whenever I try to sync the SD card in the player, Winamp does not appear to recognize the files he had previously synced. A window tells me that there are X number of songs on the Sansa Clip + who are not in the library and encourage me to remove them, let them, or cancel. (photo of the box below)

    Basically, Winamp tells me again and again to remove and re - sync a load of songs that are already on the player, which is extremely long and tedious, when all I want is to synchronize an album or two. This happens even if I plug the appliance, let it cool off, and then plug it back to synchronize again.

    If anyone has had this same problem and would be willing to share the solution, me a huge favor. Thank you.

    Nevermind, I figured it. It turns out that the solution was to set the USB MSC instead of MTP mode. Who would have thought?

    Thanks for any help.

  • Sansa Clip + does turn on at all!

    • Connect to computer

    No sign of life at all.

    I loaded full yesterday and I used it this morning, but an hour later it just stopped working.

    Help, please!

    I found the problem:

    Sansa clips don't work not in sous-zero temperatures, and when they fail, they are not off, so it's a combination of battery flat and temperature.

    FIX: In a setting slightly warm place (sometimes several days) just leave it plugged and turn it on.
