clip doesn't power up, but connects to the PC

I have the impression of the battery on my clip is dead (and so my video is dead). It worked fine two days ago. Yesterday, it wouldn't turn on, but when I plug it into USB it works and it connects and it is recognized by the PC. However, as soon as I unplug it, it becomes empty (usual behavior is to update the database for a few seconds). Thinking the battery was really flat, let it charge overnight (more than 12 hours) but nothing has changed.

Is there anything left to try, or do I bin just this thing?

It's very frustrating "cos it's a year so the warranty is gone!

I just answered this question somewhere; probably, a lead of the internal battery is defeated.  You can contact SanDisk and see if it helps (it's a known issue); or, you can try to carefully remove the Clip and reconnect the wire with solder or epoxy conductive.

    If I understand you right you have the same problem using a LAN and WLAN connectivity. Is this good?

    If so, I think that there is a problem with your router. Reboot the router and check all the settings there.

    In the worst cases it set to the factory settings and basic stuff just for the Internet without playing with other settings there.

    Did you maybe test it connect your laptop to another router?

  • Sansa clip volume problem with 'clipping' or 'pop' - when it is connected to the car radio

    I have two Clips Sansa (2 GB and 4 GB) and that both exhibit the same behavior.  When you listen to the Clips with a helmet, all right.  However, when I connect the clips on my car stereo (using a cable miniRCA to the dashboard stereo) Clips will play OK but the problem is due to the noise of road etc, should I increase the volume on the stereo of dashboard and Clips.  However, when I do that, at some point, the Clips will be 'clip' or 'pop' when the noise gets to a certain level.  I tried to change back and forth between normal and strong volume and also played with the equalizer with no effect.  My car stereo volume is thus contributed to the maximum.  This is a real problem because it is virtually impossible to listen to the Clip when driving (especially with podcasts or audio books where sometimes the voice is low, then I need to turn up the volume).  Is there some kind of limiter built into the Clip?  If so, is it possible to disable it?

    Thank you!

    I don't know how you are set up exactly, but try another cord to connect to the car. It can be such a thing as the cord you can not handle put it.

  • 114 the desire does not connect to Asus all-in-one wireless but connects to the wireless network

    I just bought my HP ENVY 114 e all-in-one last week and I tried to connect it to my computer (Asus all-in-one Windows 7 64-bit) and while he wil connect to my wireless very well my computer (or my cell phone which is also an Asus running windows 7 64 - bits) cannot identify it.

    Using the disc doesn't help nor did try manually to add in 'Add printer' in my computer and all the interest to get this particular printer was because it was wireless. If I have to plug in a USB key then I have saved money and bought a less expensive model. All my devices are on the same network, and their firewalls is turned off so that it does not hinder the process.

    When you browse the drive Assembly he asks the IP and I get it exactly as it is on the screen printer that I even printed it out and double checked 5 times and it was exactly the same, but he keeps asking for me to be reintroduced to it since the computer cannot identify the printer.

    Any help would be great I prefer not to have to pack up this thing and take it back...

    Unfortunately, the router and the printer do not get along at this stage.  The IP address changes too often and it is possible that the router has its own firewall.  A large number of firewalls, outside the Windows Firewall, sees a lot of traffic from hpnetworkcommunicator.exe and blocks preventing the software to find the printer.

    I saw this model of router and it doesn't have a built-in firewall.  Unfortunately, I could not see their manual without you register on the site.

    It may be preferable to set a static IP address for the printer in the router's routing table.  To do this, you acceding to EWS the router.  If you don't know how to set the printer's IP address in the router, you can try to contact the vendor of the router.

    Otherwise, I would recommend checking the firewall of the router.  I saw a router cause problems with an overactive firewall in place.

    If you happen to have an extra router around, you can try to use it instead of Paul's to confirm that it is the router.

    EDIT

    You can try to put a static IP address on the front of the printer.  I'm personally not too successful with setting a static IP address on the front panel when the SAP does not load, but this could be one of those cases where it does not.

    First, print a Network Setup page by going to Configuration > Wireless > Network Configuration > print Network Configuration.

    Then, go to settings > network > IP settings > change to the manual.

    Once it is replaced by the manual, it should allow the IP address, default gateway and the subnet mask.  Use the subnet mask and default gateway of the print network configuration.  Use an IP address that is not in use on the network.  You can change the last number of the IP address on the print.  For example, 192.168.1.50 could be converted to 192.168.1.250.

    Setting a static IP address on the front panel does not set servers DNS which is necessary for ePrint operate on this printer.  Now that the static IP address has been set on the front panel of the printer, try to access the SAP by entering the IP address that comes to be defined in a browser address bar.  If the printer load, you should be able to set DNS servers and be ready to go from there.

  • New Clip, music, not a subscription but still receive the note to synchronize

    Hello. We bought a new clip. Download all current music that was received through paid downloads, not a music subscription. However, the player continues to stop and send the Bill "synchronize to continue your music subscription".

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8610: 8610 does not connect to the password protected network (but connects to the unprotected network)

    I had a HP 8600 that connected to my WiFi at home.  It broke and I replaced it with a HP 8610.  When I try to connect the new printer to my WiFi at home, it is not identifying the printer in the search process.  I have searched the forums and tried to correct the problem and nothing works.

    HOWEVER, I've set up a WiFi comments without password protection and when I am connected to this network, the HP software recognizes the 8610 and I can install it.

    I hope that the foregoing will provide enough information to identify the source of the problem and a solution (easy) (?).

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    -JW

    Hi @JDWUser,

    I'd love to help you with your 8610 replacement printer. I understand that you had the 8600 on your network, but the 8610 will configure not to password protected network. I recommend you to go through this guide How to find the WEP or WPA key or the password of your wireless network, just to check your wireless password.

    Is your password contains special characters that maybe the printer does not? Are adjust you upper and lower case? I know that you explained that your password has not changed and that the printer has been configured successfully on the network before, I'm just trying to isolate a potential cause.

    Restore the default network on the printer then rerun the wireless Assistant might help.

    What is your type of encryption, and who is your supplier of router?  I saw a problem recently with WPA2 secret codes, but this issue seems to be from some routers and firmware updates.

    Please do not forget to keep me informed of the outcome of your efforts in order to contact you, and don't forget to post back with the asnwer the questions I asked. Thanks, I look forward to hear from you.

  • Satellite Pro L20: battery not charge when the power adapter is connected

    Hello

    all advice appreciated.

    I had a Satellite Pro L20 for about 18 months. Recently, battery does not charge when the power adapter is connected. The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile. However the ACPI often said that AC is "offline."

    There are two recent occurrences that coincide with this problem, I try to eliminate:

    1. my friends rat chewed by the feeder for pets! Power is Mobile OK insofar as he fled sector - the rat seems to have simply chewed by the outer cover (I see some threads, but I think that is just a shield, although I'm not an electrician).

    2. I put the laptop in hibernation for the first time. That seemed to mess up the system a bit, which was what initially drew my attention to the problem. This question is a bit complicated because I'm under Linux (Xubuntu).

    I updated the drivers etc from windows when I bought the laptop. Never had any problems until now and have been running linux for centuries. Also, I have mainly the laptop the power supply turned off, but do not remove the battery (is that really a problem these days?)

    I obviously need to replace the adapter, but is - it is likely (and how I can check) that the battery was borked until?

    see you soon
    Chris

    First, please check if the other are lit.
    If the AC led and power led are on the adapter sector is ok and it provides the power to the laptop.

    > The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile
    If the battery LED is yellow, this means that the battery is not fully charged and if the Green led changes then recharging is caught and the battery has been recharged.

    So I really don t see any problems with the charge process.

    Maybe the battery is old and so you cannot use it for an extended in such a case only the replacement of the battery could help.
