Download and "space message".

I bought my SanDisk Clip + a few months pass and am totally frustrated with it.  I'm not sure if part of the problem is that I use Mac and not a PC.  First of all, I was never able to get the Clip + to accept more than 40 songs.  Although the music folder seems to contain more than 150 songs, only about 40 would play.  I went through the troubleshooting and felt he had something to do with iTunes, limiting the number of times that that a song could be copied with other devices, but I don't know who is right.  Several times I tried to delete all the music and copying with other music, but I never have the best chance to get more music on the device.

After fiddling around with him still, the Clip + says "not enough space for music DB - but there isn't any music on the device.»  I tried to reset to the factory settings.  I'm at my wit's end.  I want to do this work because I like the way the device works and sounds and I want to avoid the iPods and iTunes and get out from under the thumb of Apple.

How I can make this work and how can I download music from another source?  I'm not quite technically incompetent, but I'm certainly not a tech savvy uber person either.

Thanks to all those who can help you.

The message 'space' insufficient often means that there is a file corrupted on the internal memory. One thing that often arrange is to run Windows error checking, assuming that you have a friend with a PC.

On the unit back Settings/System Settings/USB Mode and make SMC (which is the mode that the Mac will use anyway).

To connect to a Windows computer. Find the item listed as a hard drive. Right-click, properties/tools (a tab) / error checking. Who can fix a bad file.

While you're hooked to Windows, search for files named MACOSX unit. These are the little ghost files - Mac files Finder - only 1 KB of size with names like call them. _. 01 FirstSong.mp3. The Sansa sees the .mp3 file type and try to play them, but there is nothing in them to play, and he didn't like that much.  You must remove all unity MACOSX records. (Leave on your computer - it needs them.)  You can also search the unit for DSStore, more small files from Mac that does not use the Sansa.

If that doesn't fix, you could wipe and start over, but make sure that your files are backed up.

Reset to the factory settings only changes settings such as language, in USB Mode, etc. It is not back to zero. To do this, you need to format or the other with the unit itself - settings settings/system/format - or via Windows (right click and... FAT32 format). Do not format with the Mac!

    Hi Knbrown,

    Welcome to Microsoft Vista answers Forum!

    Most of the online games use Java and Flash Player. If Java or Flash Player is not updated, you can get this error message.

    I suggest that you install the latest version of Java and Flash Player and make sure if you are able to play, you can see the link to download the latest version and install it by selecting the appropriate operating system:

    http://get.Adobe.com/flashplayer/

    http://www.Java.com/en/download/index.jsp

    If the problem persists, I suggest that you check with the manufacturer of games for assistance, you can check the link: http://bigfishgames.custhelp.com/app/home

    Let me know if it worked.

    Your Inbox is damaged due to become bloated and/or lack of compaction.

    1: view | Current view. Show all Messages is verified?

    2: If Yes to the #1, see if you have an Inbox.bak file in the Recycle Bin of Windows and if so, what is the date of creation?

    3: If Yes to 1 and 2, after the return before doing anything else.

    4: If so #1 and not #2, you will need a tool to recover lost messages if you wish.

    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

    With OE closed, find the box of Inbox.dbx and rename it to Inboxold.dbx.  A new Inbox will be created automatically when you open OE.

    Then you will need a tool to run the Inboxold.dbx file.

    DBXpress {faster for large files and can retrieve messages after compaction in extract from disk mode}
    http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx

    General precautions for Outlook Express:

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

    Maybe they are still on the server (server of your ISP). Make sure that you don't leave copies of messages downloaded from the ISP server that may cause duplicate messages to download.

    It's the only thing I can think of.

  • I receive a "Low disk space" message and to free up space (d) car which seems full of backup files dating from when I got the laptop in 2008.

    I receive a "Low disk space" message and to free up space (d) car which seems full of backup files dating from when I got the laptop. Now I also have the message 'the last backup impossible' because I don't have enough space on this drive.  He had originally 110 GB Local disk (d :)) and it fell to 7.44 MB of free space.) Can I remove the back of the 'safeguards' located in the 3 files and start on the 17/04/2008 right up to 2011-01.05 and just keep the last backup or removing the back will cause problems? Can someone help thank you.

    Hi KarenRoss56,

    You can try to remove the old files of backup from 2008 to 2010 and check.

    Note: When you delete these files and later if you perform a restore, you will not be able to get previous data. If you need one of these files, you can transfer the files to an external drive before you delete the system files.

    You can also use Disk Cleanup to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run more quickly.
