Sansa Clip lights if the load

Hi, I got my Sansa Clip in 2008, and about a year later, I have it lent to a friend of mine. She told me that the next day she thinks she accused it too because now it does if it is supported. I tried to reset it up to two minutes, but it is still not running. If I load it, it turns on but shows only the recurring Sandisk logo and the image of the home and a computer with arrows moving between the two. This also happens with my computer when connected it is recognized and I can check the music files and all, but it turns off immediately when I get disconnected. I did this on and off for the past 3 years. A way to solve it myself or get it fixed somewhere?

Sounds like the solder on the battery leads joint broke. It's a common disease of the first (original) Clips. It's probably just a coincidence that it happened the same time you he lent to a friend.

If you are of the adventurous and handy kind with tiny son and a soldering iron, you might be able to fix it yourself. If not, transfer all your music out of her (if she is not already saved on your computer, which should be), recycle responsibly and get a new one.

His replacement, the Clip + is a wonderful and worthy descendant. Better than the original in my opinion.

  • 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

  • New Sansa Clip + not showing the track titles

    I recently got a new Sansa Clip + as a Christmas gift to replace my old (his helmet came out). I've updated to the latest firmware (even my old 01.02.18A,), and I copied my entire library of music from the old to the new player. Everything plays and works in the same way, except for one thing: on the new drive, the song titles never see the place, and the name of the file is always displayed during playback of a song. My old player would show the title of the song of the metadata instead of the file name during playback if it was available. I checked that the titles are actually there and were not lost through some freak mishap copy, so I'm puzzled as to why it won't work as my old drive.

    Anyone know of the issue and how to fix it?

    Well, Yes, that is my point of view. All tags are there, and all the rest (album, artist, etc.) is displayed in the main screen of the reading and the news section of track except for the title (who, oddly, has never had a track in any case information entry, but that is not the issue).

    ... well that, as strange as it may seem, the titles of the tracks seem to have returned - after, I moved music off the device to analyze the data volume to activate the Clip + Replay Gain. Really weird, but hey, it works now! (Maybe switch to the computer did it, since I initially copied it directly between devices?)

  • Sansa Clip + Player ignores the titles with sound of frying after the last firmware update

    Hello

    My Sansa Clip + tracks audio playback stopped (same mp3 files it used to always play) after I updated to firmware 1.02.18A.

    The player jumps just all tracks with sound of frying one after the other.  No longer play.

    What's wrong??

    Is it possible to fix it?

    Is it possible to revert to the original firmware version 1.02.15 that worked well?

    Well,.

    I don't know what the problem actually was, but certainly it's associated BONE.
    I'm at home in my Windows 7 and everything works perfectly now.

    The problem I experienced was at work, where I have Windows XP SP3 OS.

    On Windows 7 home, I copy the MP3 files in MSC mode and don't play them no problem at all.

    Driver to work on Windows XP may be defective or unsuitable for copy files correctly on the drive using the MSC mode.

    I do not know. At least, everything works fine now.

    P.S. The funniest is that tech support lady told me that my drive is ruined and it is absolutely impossible to fix.

    She also said that it is impossible to install the previous version of firmware absolutelly and that it not there no previous version of the firmware available more she also said that the only way to "solve" the problem is for me to buy a new player

    Everything just great!

    Every1 thanks for your help.

  • File, Sansa Clip BUG of the German characters not responsible for playlists

    It seems that the Clip can not load music in a playlist file if it has a German character:

    (2, b04) Walküre-second aufzug - so ist're denn aus mit den ewigen gottern.mp3

    The word 'gottern', the file not be in the playlist when I see in the Clip of the Clip is able to read the file directly.

    This is an unacceptable bug having to DELETE all of these foreign characters!  My music files are loaded with such characters and they are important!

    I tried to change the game language Deutsch did not work.

    The solution is to create the playlist with AutoM3U and use the M3U8 format.

  • Sansa Clip - stuck on the refresh database... I don't know how go you to the SMC is stuck on the refresh database...

    Hey guys,.

    I had to look around the forum without result...

    Have a new Sansa Clib 4 GB... Spend 2 hours sorting of a list of synchronization... (Who has no record on a playlist... )

    Put on I "Refresh database" at about 20%, which is frozen right there...

    I've read about the opening in MSC? to find the bad file which is the cause (correct me if I'm wrong)

    But can't figure out how to do something that he is stuck on the refresh database...

    Through 60 GB of music earlier and really don't want what should once again!

    Please help, not very good techno animal

    Thank you

    PAM

    Go into the menu settings of clips and then use the system settings internal to format the drive (sorry it will delete all the music on the player). Once that is completed, make sure that you have the latest firmwire. Then download mp3tag (google it) and use it to check the tags of all your files, make sure that they are all Id3 tags, and that there is no mistake on any of them (sorry, this can take some time). Then, make sure that the clip is in MSC mode. Then use windows Explorer to drag and drop the files you want onto the clip on the clip. Disconnect and then turn it on. Leave it to update the database (do not touch anything). If you have music you know to be protected DRM you will need to plug the "rocket" back in and use Windows Media or any other similar program to add these files. I hope this gets you going.

  • Shed light on the loading of the UDA

    Hello

    My dimension member accounts each have 3 UDA associated with them, and I'm trying to load the metadata in EPMA using flat files. I'm not clear on how to load the information of the UDA.

    I created a dimension of the UDA - UDA1 and try to associate with the dimension of accounts in the following way.

    ! Section = Dimensions
    ' Name. DimensionClass
    ACCOUNT | Account
    ALIAS | Alias

    Since there are 3 UDA for each Member, I separated them with comma.

    This format is correct?


    I received the following error message for all columns starting with (SourcePlanType... UDA)

  • Sansa Clip + not recognized by the Audi music interface

    I'm trying to connect my Sansa Clip to my music interface of cars (Audi A4, model 2010). My Sansa Clip says that he has plugged in and the battery starts to load, but my music interface of cars does not recognize the mp3 device. Anyone have any idea what can be the problem?

    The Audi music interface manual says that there is a limitation in mp3 with "USB Device subclass 1, 2 and 6'.» What may be the problem, that "subclass" Sansa Clip + have they?

    Thanks for your reply and your quick response!  Your answer solved my initial problem. Now the music interface of the car recognize my Sansa Clip, but now the problem is that it cannot find the files that can be read. I noticed the same 'phenomena' trying to find music via my computer files, when having put MSC is not possible to see all the files. I have .wma and .mp3 files both on the Sansa Clip.

    Is there a way to solve this problem as well?

    Your computer cannot see or access the files that have been transferred to MTP mode when you are connected to the MSC and vice versa. It may be a similar situation with the stereo system in your care. You may need to remove all the files (build formattiing be the fastest way to do) and re - transfer to your player in MSC mode.

  • Sansa clip-drag & drop shockwave object corrupts - the error of the operating system "refreshing database".

    If by mistake, you drag and drop an object flash shockwave from your local directory from the PC to the sansa clip, corrupt you the operating system of the sansa clip. When re - start the sansa clip, clip progresses by up to 70% with error message "refreshing database", but fails to start successfully. If the press-'hold' button on sansa clip, the appliance does not start. It crashes with the error message "refreshing database' but doesn't load is not the operating system.»

    It was a user error to drag - move all the MP3 files in the directory of the PC, one of whom was of type shockwave flash object file.

  • Clicking or stutter during playback of the audio file on Sansa Clip

    I'm having a problem similar to that described in the following thread:

    http://forums.SanDisk.com/Sansa/board/message?board.ID=sansafuse&message.ID=2785&query.ID=219379#M2785

    Only I have the problem on a 4 GB Sansa Clip.

    The audio file is a DRM WMA to NetLibrary, 165MB, 32 Kbps and 11:48:01 in length.

    I am currently at 05:21 mark in the file and the stuttering arrived at a point where it is difficult to listen to the file.

    I had filled the files of devices (especially the music, a few podcasts) and then deleted, filled again, etc., so there may be some fragmentation that is either the problem.

    I'm reformatting of the clip using the internal format of the device function and allows you to copy only the audio book on the device at the beginning to see if the problem goes away (this * should * minimise, if not eliminate the fragmentation).  Then I resync the rest of the music files to the player using Windows Media Player, and then see if the problem comes back.

    I'll post my results here.

    Reformat the device worked very well.  The audio file sounds fine and the file is read immediately when you rewind or fast forward through the file (before it should pause a few seconds once you wanted to before play).

  • SanDisk Sansa Clip + 4 GB MP3 player with FM Radio

    Hello-

    My new sansa clip + out of the box and I'm not able to do Radio FM works.  Battery is charged.  All I get on screen is a set of headphones and the 'music '.  I do not expect to play music because I have not yet loaded, but I expect to be able to get FM radio but can't seem to get there.  Any suggestions on how I have to happen?  Thank you.

    Please note that I do not see a menu of items to select from the MP3 player.  I do not see a "lock" or "unlock".

    My computer recognizes the drive as a new piece of hardware.

    The reader does not recognize the software on the CD when I put the CD in the computer.

    The player does not allow me to make the software what I t hink is the "root directory" for the player.  I guess tha the directory "root" is the "Sansa Clip + 4 GB" or the "internal memory".  It allows me to copy in one of these.   Appears as:

    + The Sansa Clip + 4 GB

    -Internal memory

    + Albums

    + Audio books

    + Music

    + Playlists

    + Podcasts

    + Records

    + Service

    My D drive that reads the CD has these files it contains:

    Autorun.inf and sansa - install .exe and one other file that reads:

    fscommand with these files it contains: dloadrhap.exe, dloadrhap.txt, proxy.bat, proxy.exe

    If I do not have need of these, please let me know.  I don't want to stuff more then I need to run the player.

    I'm assuming that I need only the files autorun.inf and the sansa - install .exe.

    I do not understand what is Rhapsody or why I need.

    Thank you.

    Bonnie

    Now, don't laugh at this suggestion, but: when you get the player, there is a transparent plastic sticker that was placed on the screen of the player, which has a screen simulation showing the items that describe you see on your screen - have - you, you take off the sticker? (It generally is a small tab on the right side of the tile to help with that.) Once you do this, the player I hope will begin to operate as expected. On the CD, you don't need at all! The CD is required to use the separate music Rhapsody and optional subscription service (for which you pay every month, after a free trial, usually). If you do not want the service, go to the CD. Finally, you should check and see if your drive is the latest firmware - look under settings to the player and to compare this version number firmware recent listed in the upgrade thread Firmnware sticky at the top of this forum. If the thread here has a more recent version of firrmware, recommended that you upgrade to it-, it is very easy to do. I hope this helps!

  • Play OGG tracks, freezes my Sansa Clip Zip

    Hello

    I tried that twice add files ogg to my card 32 Gb microSDHC SanDisk Ultra that I use with my Sansa Clip Zip, and the two times my player froze when he tried to play.

    I simply copy/paste ogg files, so I did not use any software to manage the upload. When I download mp3, I usually use the Winamp player.

    Ogg files are soundtrack of games shipped with my purchase on www.gog.com.

    I do something wrong when I download ogg files? Music plays without problem in VLC media player.

    Thank you.

    The Ogg decoder in the sandisk firmware is pretty buggy and really inefficient power. I talked to them years sending a few corrections (they use the standard decoder open source, just a version older and without much optimization), but who worked all the time, they stopped really about adding new things never happened. If you use multiple Ogg files, you should probably watch using Rockbox. I think the battery life is 2 or 3 times longer due to optimizations, and compatibility is much better.

  • Need HELP! My Sansa Clip + is no longer recognized by my PC!

    In fact, when I connect my Sansa Clip + to my PC via USB, it will recognize in 'My Computer' for a fraction of a second & then it will disappear! The disc for my Sansa will be apear for 2-5 seconds & then bam, gone.

    Sometimes the Sansa Clip + will reappear again at my drive after leaving connected, but even once, it will appear only for a fraction of a second & disapear as he was immediately disconnected.

    After that my Sansa Clip + is going to just play the music as it was not yet connected to my PC with the USB cable. I don't think it's the same in charge when connected.

    I have an another spare Sansa Clip + & when I connect it to my PC with the USB cable even & the same USB port, it is perfectly recognised! No problem with that!

    My Sansa Clip dies or the USB connector on the end let go & not able to login properly?
    What I have to buy a new, or is it repairable?

    Have you tried to exchange the cables? Sounds like the cable you use (which connects intermittently or fresh) may have a loose wire or PIN.
