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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Hello

    First of all, thanks a lot for taking the time to help me.

    After having tried everything you have suggested and have no chance and then by searching the Microsoft sites, Dell and SanDisk, I finally found a very simple solution that worked.

    Thought I would pass it for any future reference.

    The SanDisk site said to try this:

  • My Sansa Clip does not work

    I use my Sansa Clip when I work at the YMCA. I used it last night and it worked fine then. This morning when I went to the O, it didn't work at all. Once I got home, I plugged into my computer. It still does not work. Why it does not work and I can fix it?

    How about a magic Sansa?

    Slide the switch to position IT and hold it there for 10-15 seconds.  If you have sensitive headphones, you can hear a "click" soft as the device resets.  It is the function of soft reset .  Your Clip should restart normally after the reset.  Try to turn it on as usual.

  • Sansa Clip and Slacker Radio?

  • Power outage Sansa Clip

    Hello

    I have a 2 GB Sansa Clip I bought about 4-5 years ago and have been very happy with it.

    He runs the version of the 01.01.30A software.

    However, recently and for no apparent reason suffering from power cuts.

    It would just turn off, no matter how much battery there left, how long it has been running or what he does. And when we turn on (which is sometimes hard to do) he can't remember the last thing he was playing.

    After further tests it seems to turn off when put under different angles, almost as if there is a piece on the inside that is open/close the connection. When shaking a slight ratteling inside there, but I can't be certain that's not making noise power switch.

    Of course, this looks like a hardware problem.

    So, how can I open it and fix it? Is there a diagram somewhere I can look at?

    Thank you

    Max

    Well, I opened it and looked around in there.

    True, the battery had detached from its adhesive strips and pulled the loose battery negative cable.

    Gently, I took out the battery and was able to resolder the wire and test that it works before you all shut up.

    My double-sided adhesive foam Strip seemed to be too thick, so I used a drop of silicone glue to prevent the battery from moving around.

    All together again once, case snapped back and forth between them well.

    A little notation around the seam is a small price to pay for a media player that fully operational once again.

    Thanks for all your suggestions!

  • 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.

  • Can not record songs on a Sansa Clip +.

    I recently bought the Sansa Clip + and it has firmware version V01.01.05F and the song rate feature doesn't seem to work. I choose 1-5 stars and select the choice, but the note is not saved. Another poster asked a similar question and its solution involved affecting USB MTP mode, but this has not worked for me. Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    OK I thought about it, the new firmware fixed this problem for me.

  • 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.

  • Organize the Audiobook on Sansa Clip +.

    I'm relatively new to the Sansa Clip. I want to put an audio book on which has a set of 11 disks. I created a title on the drive under audio books. Now I want the title create 11, disk1, disk2, etc. subfolders, to copy the torn in each folder of s to do 11 playlists under the title. That doesn't seem to work. Is this not possible.

    Then I thought about being smart and merged all tore up the files from one disk to do a big mp3 fle (60 + MB) and do this 11 times and copy them under the title and create a playlist. The player doesn't and hung. What gives? Any help wil be appreciated.

    Well, this is what I discovered. Each record indicates that a separate under audio books book. So I changed the label of the album of each disc to the Heading1, Title2 etc and it works. Thank you all for your help. Very much appreciated.

  • 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.

    You try to reset by pressing the power button / stop 20 seconds does not help.

    Using different USB ports does NOT help.

    The cable using different USB does not help.
