  • Sansa 280 not recognized as a Portable device

    General information: Sansa 280th with firmware version 01.024.24A; Operating system Windows Vista, service pack 2; MSC mode; Windows Media Player version 11.0.6002.18111.

    My computer only recognizes the Sansa player when it is connected in MSC mode.  When it is connected to the MTP device does not appear in the computer widow.  However, when connected in MSC , an icon labeled mass storage mode removable disk (F soon will appear next to DVD RW drive (E labeled and a few seconds later a removable disk (G labeled icon appears next to the removable disk (F labeled icon.))))  An AutoPlay window appears followed by a popup indicating that "it is not children in the drive...". ».  I tested other portable devices and all appear as a portable device.  It seems to me that my Sansa player has lost its identity.

    When I drag a playlist to sync pane in Windows Media Player (WMP) and click on the button synchronize the files copy to the device.  Everything looks normal on the player.  The music seems like songs, but nothing appears in the list of reading as the list go.  I formatted the device, both on the computer window and using the method of hold/record , after which I reinstalled the firmware.

    I would appreciate help anyone can provide in resolving this issue.

    This morning I took a glance at the problem again. I went into the Device Manager and uninstalled the driver in MTP mode. I then reinstalled it manually with the driver selected in a list. Driver selection was easy because there was only one on the list. It is installed successfully! When you try to update the driver automatically, Vista kept saying that the driver was updated. What I think happened is that the driver has become corrupted and the only way to replace it was to force Vista to reinstall, which then solved the problem. Just my guess. Sorry, but I know just enough about dangerous software systems. But I learned a lot during this experience.

    In any case, under the MPT mode the computer recognizes the Sansa player as a portable device! However, in WMP it has no music file recognized. I think that WMP table should update since I Sync playlists and he did return to his table where that data is stored. It comes to decide whether or not to reformat the device in MSC mode and start again, then switch to the PSG and synchronize albums, playlist, etc., in WMP. And then there are worries that something can go wrong, since OMP recognizes two Sansa e280 players. We're working and the other is a mannequin. Additionally, this strange thing of two in MSC mode mass storage devices is always displayed in the window of the computer (aka My in Win XP) (see the original post). So not all of my fears are unfounded, while other strange things continue. For now, I'll leave the single unit and reformat and start over when I feel compelled to do.

    I appreciate the assistance. He made me started lookng in the right direction. Thanks again!

  • The disk ripped files do not playback on portable devices

    Files ripped with media player won't read in portable devices, how to check if they are mp3s?

    My LG rumor and my Blackberry play mp3s, but will not play the music files I have copy on the microdisc in each device. A mistake on the Blackberry indicates its a format not supported, but I don't know how to determine the format. How can I check this, and how can I convert these?

    Hi bcrich58,

    The default format in Windows Media Player is Windows Media Audio.

    When you rip MP3 files in Windows Media Player, if the format is not changed to .wmv in mp3, files will be torn in .wmv format. After extraction, it is not possible to use the player to change the format (for example, from WMA to MP3) or the bitrate of the ripped files previously.

    To read this file in other devices, you may need to convert it to MP3 again and try to play.

    You can use your favorite search engine to download a third-party codec and check if you can play the file in other devices

    Note:  Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • WMP does not recognize the 3 different portable devices

    I have a new PC Win 7 with WMP. My PC DID recognize 3 different portable devices, when I connect (an iphone a plane mp3 iriver and Sandisk fuze mp3 player.) But WMP does not recognize everything, even if the PC is. I've tried different USB ports on the PC, makes no difference, other than that, all works fine USB ports. And I didn't look at using WMP, which does not seem to realize that this problem can exist, no info at all.

    How to make WMP to recognize so I can sync? And BTW, I'd like to go back to WMP in Vista, I'm bored of advanced tag editor.

    Thank you.

    When you write that the PC recognizes your devices, you got the popup that says that each device has its driver installed and it was ready for use or that you just want to say that you get another indication that the device is connected?

    What WMP version you have (click Help > about Windows Media Player; if you do not see the menu file/View/Play/tools/help, right-click at the top of WMP)?

  • The internet connection on my laptop and other portable device, but not in my office.

    Data sheet:

    -Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

    -All browsers and devices are up-to-date.
    Questions:
    I have this problem since yesterday and I tried to solve this problem since.
    The problem is that on my connection (WiFi) network, it says I have access to the internet, and of course it does because I can use internet without problem on my laptop, iphone and other portable device, but not in my office. It says I have an internet connection and when I ping a browser it answers correctly and it gives me all the Member States and other information.
    When I troubleshoot it it gives me something like "your computer seems to be configured correctly, but the device or resource (www.microsoft.com) is not responding." I thought it was a DNS problem so I reset everything, but no luck. Here are things I tried to solve this problem.
    -Reset TCP/ip using cmd.
    -Check if the IP is obtained automatically.
    -Check if I'm using the proxy server.
    -Rebooted (reinstalled windows)
    and many other things that I have searched on google

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software .

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software.

If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Follow these steps:

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode with network and check if the problem persists.

    Startup options (including safe mode)

    Step 2: If the problem does not persist in safe mode with networking, perform a clean boot to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • I do not see my devices on itunes

    I've recently updated to the latest version of ITunes and now I can't see my devices to change the content.

    If your iOS device does not appear in iTunes, try the following:

    1. Open Control Panel > Device Manager
    2. Plug in your device
    3. Locate Bus USB Controllers > Apple Mobile Device USB Driver.
      It is also possible that the device may appear under imaging devices, portable devices or other devices or as a device USB of MTB.
    4. Right-click and select software update of the driver...
    5. Click Browse my computer for driver software

    7. Click on let me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer
    8. Click on Apple Mobile Device USB Driver
    9. Click Next, then close and exit the Device Manager

    To step 3 above, open the Device Manager. Expand one of the articles that are listed.

    • USB Bus controllers
    • Imaging devices
    • Portable devices
    • Other devices

    Plug in the appliance. You should hear the telltale Windows sound device connection and a Division must acquire a new entry. This should be your device. It cannot be labelled properly at this point. If you do not hear a suspicious noise cable damaged.

    Or try If iTunes does not your iPad, iPhone or iPod - Apple Support Apple version of the above opinion.

    If not try a complete tear down and rebuild iTunes in accordance with the resolution of the problems with iTunes for Windows updates. 64-bit users might also try the alternate build Download iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for older video cards) , which is sometimes a useful workaround.

    Or try to go back to the last version of iTunes that has worked for you. See the programs installation of iTunes to download links. If you roll back to 12.4.0.119 to 12.3.3.17 or 12.3.2.35, for example, then you will also need restore the database of the library in the manner described in the empty/corrupted after upgrade/crash iTunes library. The tip makes suggestions to reintroduce recent purchases, so at worst, you lose a few meters or a newly created playlist.
