Completely insensitive Sansa Clip

I just bought a Sansa Clip 8 gb yesterday, and today I finally had the time and access to put the music on it. I installed Windows Media Player 11, sync my music, made sure it was fully charged and decided to go out for a run. I listened to a song repeatedly (he played throughout many times so far) when it suddenly stopped playing mid-song after about forty minutes. The menu screen do not appear, key does not turn on and I can not reset regardless of how long I hold it in the "high" position. If I connect it to my computer, it is not read (nothing appears on my computer)... in one of the USB ports. It is not read on another Windows XP computer in the House, either. I tried to install the update for Sansa, but it will not install as the Clip isn't well of my computer. I tried to hold the power button for 20 seconds, locking and pressing the main select button while inserting the USB cable and nothing helped. Curiously, it is still running as far as I can tell because when you plug / unplug the headphones you can hear the "flying" static, you would do an audio device in use. I can't return or Exchange it at Wal-Mart because I left the front desk in another State, and I'd really prefer not to send to the manufacturer at my own expense given their promise to offer a «free of defects of design» product If someone could help me troubleshoot my way in a working mp3 player, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I waited for Wal-Mart finish digging through their recipes to find the mine, and you know... after 60 hours of idleness, the Clip has decided to finally die. I could load after this and update the firmware. Should work fine now. I'll probably still pick up the receipt just in case.

  • Sansa Clip is insensitive (malfunction)

    To start things, I've owned a Sansa Clip 2 GB for about a month now, and I never had any problems with it until today... even if I'm to blame for causing its functioning. Is how he dropped it when I was trying to get some songs from my Mac sisters I wanted (my laptop is Vista, so suddenly I was not familiar with the change in systems), I don't a not eject the Sansa Clip correctly the USB. He ended up screwing up, and now I can't make it work because it tends to freeze when I turn it on (after holding the power button for 15 seconds or less). Does anyone have advice on how I can fix this, or to all least able to reset it so that it can work? By the way, thanks in advance.

    Basically, you can run a check on it as if it were a generic drive (say a hard drive or a USB "key")

    the exact command depends on you and the operating system, fsck, chkdsk or (for example xp) right-click on the sansa msc mode (should appear as a removable USB - say-), properties, tools, check now.

    as an alternative, if you know that you can just re - put songs on the clip without having to purchase them again, simply reformat the drive, there is a specific menu settings entryunder.

  • Headphone Jack does not fit into my new Sansa Clip +.

    Hello

    I just bought a new Sansa Clip + so I could listen to my songs while he's on vacation, but when I put in my profile 3.5 headphone jack into the hole on the side of the mp3 player, it will not thoroughly and grave if I don't hold him properly. That is how a Sansa Clip + is? because I found it very boring.

    I hope someone can answer quickly because I'll be on vacation in a week about. And sorry for my English because it is not my mother tongue.

    When the player is again taking is very tight and it takes a little force to get the plug completely.

  • Sansa Clip + problems, correct the records but unknown marking and scrambled the tracks. Help!

    Hi guys,.

    There can someone please offer some advice for me and my husband before we became completely crazy?

    We bought for our daughter the Sansa Clip +, but we are having the same problem occur over and over again.

    During his music and audio books have first been loaded above all was fine. Added items displayed in the files and the right places but, now, for some reason when we add anything, the record of the album can be seen, but it also creates an additional folder that displayed as "Unknown". When you go and try to play inside this folder it does not work... "We always ensure that there is proper use of marking we MP" tag, so I know that the questions are not because of it.

    We have tried everything we can think of. Tried to update but I think we already have the latest version installed in any case - V01.02.18P, performed a factory reset, put in shape and I have tried using different modes, but it makes no sense. Why everything fine was a couple of days and not now...

    We use a 16 GB Kingston SDHC Card inside the Clip +.

    Please any ideas would be welcome because it becomes a nightmare.

    Thanks Claire x

    I should add that I am starting to think that I can have bought a card SD of FAKE writing is rubbing on the front of the card... IS this likely and if so could cause of the issues I am currently experiencing? XX

  • Sansa Clip + connect to Volkswagen Golf Mk7

    Hi guys,.

    I recently had a VW Golf 7 and I tried to connect my Sansa Clip + with it via USB.

    It work well.

    The device is in MSC mode and Yes to THE works perfectly, but not what I want, I want to know if there is a way to make it work by USB.

    In MTP mode, the device connects and 2 readers (internal + microsd) are visible, but I can't load anything on them, and finally, the display shows just "dysfunction." In MSC mode, it looks like he wants to connect to the Clip +, there is a message on the screen saying "connecting to device" or some thing like that and my Clip + says that it is connected and reading. Charge the battery via the USB port works perfectly. However, after a few minutes of this "connecting to device" message, nothing seems to happen and the Clip + is not recognized by the stereo.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    EHR says:

    I could do this, but then the Clip + is completely useless to me because he got only 8 GB of memory, almost all of my music is on the SD card.

    So I guess I have to just get a micro SD to SD card and use it in my car instead. It's kindof a shame, but good

    What's a shame? That's what I do. Why place wear & tear on your drive when if you load all your songs to an SD card and use a card reader to plug into the USB port on your car stereo, it will do the same. And you're not submit your player to extreme and/or cold, heat inevitable finished autonomy or eyes curious thieves potential when you park the car.

    USB and SD (micro or full size) cards are very cheap. You could even buy a card, that copy you music to it and leave (as well as the card reader) in the car. In this way, you do not remove the card from your player all the time and having to wait for the updating of the database when you put it back in it.

My hunch is that there may be some problems with the USB cable you have tried (something that you might want to check, by the way). Sometimes I use the USB cable that came with my Clips, sometimes I use one of my many generic not cheap-o cables; six of one and half a dozen of others - they all work very well.

  • Order of red herring Sansa Clip 8 gb

    Hello, I'm new to this forum, unfortunately I couldn't find a solution for my problem using the search option.

    I tag my mp3s (primarily audio books) with MP3Tag v2.43. So far, everything worked fine, I gave all the tracks of an audio bouguerra (several CD) the same album and the name of the interpreter, but different titles (usually, I put the title = track number). But now I encountered a problem with an audio book consisting of 153 other titles. No matter how I name securities securities (they show the correct order in mp3tag), they appear in the mess on my sansa clip, for example, in this order:

    010/153

    020/153

    ..

    100/153

    110/153

    ..

    001/153

    011/153

    021/153

    031/153

    ..

    101/153

    111/153

    and so on...

    Is anyone know about this problem and how to solve? I even deleted all the tags and created completely new, the problem occurs again.

    The way that you are their numbering can be confusing the player. I do not think that it supports A / B numbering. Instead of their numbering "001 / X", "002 / X", "003 / X", etc., try just of their dial "001", "002", "003", etc.

    Additionally, make sure that MP3Tag is set to write your tags to ID3v2.3 ISO 8859-1 format. Other ID3 formats are not supported.

  • My NEW Sansa Clip 8 GB jump audio during playback

    Hi all!

    Yesterday, I bought a new Sansa Clip 8 GB with FM Radio and today I try. Well, some fat is a problem: my Sansa skips audio while playing songs, as happens when a scratched audio cd is reproduced (do understand you?).

    Initially, happened after one minute of play (on all the songs) but now it happens early on and listening is impossible.

    I don't understand what the problem is. The Sansa is NEW.

    Firmware version is 02.01.32A

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you.

    Giulio.

    Problem solved, after upgrading the firmware to the latest version, although the problem was not the firmware.

    The problem is on a fault line desing of the Sansa. The male jack to the headphones should NOT be inserted completely into the socket because otherwise, either you hear anything like that or you ear the Sansa jump audio. It's amazing. The engineers who designed, which should be fired instantly.

  • Sansa Clip barely working

    My Sansa Clip works more yesterday, I don't think it was even after connecting it to my PC. The problems:

    • When I try to play music, it starts in mode 'break '. Won't even play when I 'force' in playback mode
    • slow start and stop times
    • I can connect to my PC, but the only display of file is DevIcon.fil (182 612 bytes)

    Can't use it and I have no ideas left. It is completely charged, about 40% used space, the firmware version is 02.01.32F.

  • Problems of sound quality with my Sansa Clip and Rhapsody subscription titles

    I'm at my wits end here. This last Christmas, I bought a black 4 GB Sansa Clip for me. About two weeks after I bought it, I got a low-memory error to create a database. I've reformatted the drive, transferred songs and everything worked fine... for a week. Then I got the same error message that he died completely. As in it would not turn on at all, even connected to my PC.

    I brought instead buy one leave and received a replacement. Now it will not play long pieces of subscription Rhapsody without a slight distortion starting about 13-14 minutes in and continuing to the end of the track.

    I did not have this problem with the first Clip.

    I don't have this problem with securities that I torn and transferred.

    I don't have this problem with my c250.

    I have this problem with my 4 GB Clip son cash. However in addition to the simple to burst I get with my Clip, the music also sounds distorted, with large legs on her.

    I already have the routine of songs and dances for Rhapsody. I have also updated the firmware of these two Clips Sansa to v02.01.32a, tried to transfer using two different USB cables and several USB ports on my computer. The only thing I have not done is reformat the thing. After having to transfer 600 + tracks 3 times in two months, I am rather hesitant in doing so.

    Anyone, please, help me solve this problem?

    Ah, we'll add some gloss of your clusters.

    The your Clip file allocation table a wee 4 KB clusters.  Since you have a 4 GB device, this FAT is big enough.

    Decoding of the Rhapsody tracks requires some supercomputers, being secure to 160 Kbps wma files.  The Clip is responsible for finding the next block of data, but it must focus on this huge FAT.

    The solution is simple!

    Turn on your trusty Clip.  Go to settings > Format > Yes.  This reformatted the device with 32 KB clusters, optimized for the Sansa.

    Please note that this will delete all existing music to your Sansa, and you will need to reload.

    On the other side of the coin, you will hear now own sounding music!

    If you format from Windows, it has the bad habit of formatting with teeny 4 KB clusters - and stuttering that results will make you crazy.  If you format Windows, ALWAYS follow-up with a format on the device via the parameters.

  • Can not leave completely insensitive - Firefox, use Safe Mode, reinstall or uninstall

    I installed Firefox less than a month ago. Two days ago, that he left suddenly during the navigation. This does seem like a problem, really - I thought I would just restart - but it REMAINS open. Shows the icon in my dock (on Mac), and the menu bar appears when I click on the icon. I can browse the menu selections but can not choose one.

    I can't:
    -Leave Firefox - from the menu or with Ctrl + Q
    -Open a new fenΩtre
    -Open help
    -Access to "troubleshooting information.
    -Select "restart with modules disabled...". »
    -Use the Safe Mode

    Because I can not use Safe Mode and cannot leave the program, I have IMPOSSIBLE:
    -Uninstall (it refuses to remove, because the program is 'open', as it won't leave)
    -Reinstall (I can't substitute the existing because the program is 'open')
    -Remove my dock
    -.. pretty much anything else.

    I've read many articles dealing with troubleshooting, Safe Mode, reinstall clean, etc, but unfortunately I can't make one of these because Firefox is open but completely insensitive.

    (PS - I tried to install the below troubleshooting information, but, even once, because Firefox is not responding, I couldn't open it lol - there was "no application available" to read it.) I can't go through the manual steps because I cannot access the troubleshooting information in the Help menu and so cannot even begin step 1.)

    If anyone has any suggestions, I would be VERY happy! I thank very you much for your time and help!

    If qutting, it's because of the questions are now trying down option as you click the icon in the dock and choose force quit from the list!

    Also you have tired Fox fire rest functionality (otherwise said if your power to access)
    To do:

    1. Go to Firefox > help > troubleshooting information.
    2. Click on the button 'Reset Firefox'.
    3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is finished, it will display a window with the imported information. Click Finish.
    4. Firefox opens with all the default settings applied.
