Sansa Clip: Loading screen saver: can manually enable us to extend the life of the screen?

What charge the Sansa Clip: after an hour, the screen turns white (a screen saver, I guess).

I would like to activate the screen saver immediately, to extend the duration of the display.  Is it possible to do?

Or maybe in a version of firmware future, so a sequence button turn it on.

Unless the life of the screen is much longer than the lifetime of the unit in general...

Thanks for your time.

As far as I know, you can't do it manually now.

This is the reason why some people with an adapter for recharging: when charging via AC, the display shuts off after setting the time of the backlight of your display.

Indeed, even if it bugs some of us, it is likely that display time of 1 hour during USB charging will not significantly affect the ultimate lifecycle of the screen, in the end; If I remember correctly, the screen has a life expectancy of 5000 hours or something like that (sorry, it's been a while) - it is 208 days of fulltime show all day/night long.  By the time you reach this point, probably, if ever, the battery life may have been reached, or you probably may have gone to another player, as technology improves over time.  But it's all unique to each user (if you are more rare than the user who guard 8 hours per day, life of the screen display will be reached about 1.7 years; if you use your player lot every day and are charging every day, charging via AC could save you 365 hours of projection of the time per year (, the equivalent of almost a month of 1.7 years screen time), and so you can recharge via AC just to cover as much as possible.  (More realistic, if your screen is on for 2 hours a day, which is still a lot, unless you really keep your screen on a lot, the screen should last for about 7 years or more - think where you will be and what technology you are using maybe at this time.)

  • Sansa clip froze screen message says "disconnected".

    My machine went on mode standby mode when it is connected with the Sansa clip. I grew up my machine and unplugged the USB Sansa, since then clip shows a message "disconnected." Even if I'm trying out or other options it still shows offline message. I tried the firmware update, but it says that no product can be updated sansa is recognized.

    I hate it when this happens.  The Sansa off, slide the switch to the position IT and hold it there for 10-15 seconds.  This will be a soft reset of the device.

    It should now light up normally and will be recognized by the computer again.

    You can prevent this catastrophe wee by configuring the USB to stay in standby mode. With the trendy Sansa, in Device Manager, go to Bus USB controllers, and expand that.  You will see a list of ads from hub USB root at the bottom of the tree.

    Starting at the bottom, click twice on each one and select Properties.  The Sansa is hidden in this point of view, but it is be clicking on the current tab.  When you have found the position of hub with the Sansa listed, click the power management tab, and uncheck "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

    Please note that the Sansa Updater will modernize only the firmware currently installed the latest version, but it is not designed to reinstall the same version, as in the case of a repair.  To reinstall the same version, you must follow the instructions to install the firmware manually.

    In this particular case, I don't think it will damage your firmware.  The soft reset should do the trick.

  • XP, VMware Server 2: Error loading Page - Firefox can't establish a connection to the server < hostname >: 8333

  • 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?

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

  • I upgraded the firmware Sansa Clip & now I don't see the files I had previously in

    Hi guys, this is my problem: I have a sansa clip v2, it worked fine until yesterday, when I updated the firmware with sansa updater; the upgrade went smoothly, but now my windows xp sp3 detects the drive because it was a normal penstick/external hd and I cannot see the files I already had in it: I can still listen to their - players works as usual - but, as I don't see them, I can't delete them! I tried the "hidden and system files" in folder options, but it did not help. I think that after the upgrade of the internal structure of the file has changed a bit, now it is: sound, music, audio books, podcasts, record, WMPinfo.xml, MTABLE. SYS, RES_INFO. SYS, SYS_CONF. SYS, version.sdk. I try to put a few new files in the folder "music" and it works perfectly, they appear in the player, so the problem is only with the 'old'; in fact, I would not delete them mind these files if it is not necessary, because I have them on my hard drive).

    I hope someone can help me, thank you very much! (and please excuse my bad spelling & grammar, I'm Italian!  :-))

    1. pick up your player Sansa Clip - the physical drive you bought.

    2. activate.

    3. press the small 'home' button, the small button on the front of the item located at the top right of the Ferris wheel - it's the small button with the little house printed on it.

    4. press on the lower part of the wheel (at 06:00 position) until the screen shows the settings.

    5. press once on the right side of the wheel (at 03:00 position) to access settings options.

    6. press on the lower part of the wheel (at 06:00 position) until the display shows USB mode.

    7. press the right side of the wheel (at 03:00 position) once to enter USB mode options.

    8. tap up or down the Ferris wheel (at 12 and 06:00 positions) and select the USB setting menu is currently not checked (I think that this will be the PSG; ignore the setting "Auto", for the reasons I stated above), then select it by pressing the right side of the wheel (at 03:00 position).

    9. you have now set your video mode MTP USB drive.  Press the small home button twice to return to the regular game mode.

    And that's all.  Now when you connect your player to Clip on your computer, your files should appear on your computer.  If they don't, repeat the above, but set the USB to the MSC mode.

    I hope this helps.

    PS As I said earlier, the USB modes, the MSC mode (compared to the MTP mode) is more universal and will work on multiple computers.  If you use a video player on other computers, you can set your video player in MSC mode, to ensure that it will connect to other computers.  If this is the case and if your video player has been set to MTP mode so far, before changing the setting of mode USB mode MSC, to be able to see all files in the reader of your video on your computer, first copy the files from the drive of your music back to your computer delete them out of your video player, set the Clip Player USB Service mode weather of the Canada (see above) and then copy the files to your video player.  This ensures that you can see all the files of your video player when it is connected to your computer.

  • TWO LAPTOPS WILL NOT DETECT SANSA CLIP 8 GB IN MY COMPUTER

    I have to be very thick, but if I can install an Ipod via itunes, so it must be easy p1ss!

    I'm on my second sansa clip 8 GB, and still my laptop does not detect the device? Why is this?  Ive been hooked up for three hours as the book says, but it does not even recognize it is recharged, the battery power is in the same position, I started the so-called charge upward, and he did not move!

    the strange thing is, if I plug it into my usb HP printer port, accusations of bloody thing?

    Im confused, Ive formatted, like three times, Ive changed to automatic detection, MSC and MTP but still nothing...

    IM using Windows XP

    The usb cord little has the same end for my N95 8 GB, so I plugged my phone on my laptop using the same USB cable and it works, but for some reason this sansa will not be detected, Ive tried all ways and always make me not anywhere with her

    I don't not even a small icon in the system tray, it's in my head

    IS IT BROKEN?

    Yours, lost

    A few things to try:

    -Another USB cable.

    -Another USB port, especially one in the back of your laptop.

    -Try to set the video mode USB MSC under settings of the element.

    -Try a system reset (with the music turned off, hold the on switch upward for 15-20 seconds).

    I hope that one or the other will do.
