Sansa Clip won't work! Help!

OK well I was downloading an update, then my lil brother unplugged.

Now, it won't turn even if I charge it for 12 hours!

I tried the second 15 reset thing did not work, and when I plugged it into the wall instead of the computer (when connected to the computer it won't let me see something other than taxation) it allows me to see everything / listen to my music, etc. But the minute I unplug the screen turns white.

Although when I plugged it in the wall it says 'Updating of the database'

Help, please!

  • 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 won't play the slotradio card

    I have a new Sansa Clip + and buy a slotradio card at Radio Shack yesterday. When I insert the card (Yes, I'm Threading RAS) media refreshes; then I'll SlotRadio, right click, and then he says: "buy 1000 songs to... etc" and then nothing. What can I try?  I think I tried everything.

    I have not tried the other cards because it is brand new. Maybe I'll see if RadioShack will allow me to have another card.  Thank you.

  • Keyboard for blackBerry Smartphones won't work - HELP PLEASE!

    My Curve 8900 is less than 6 months old, and suddenly the keyboad won't work, so I can't make/receive calls, and although the trackball works, it won't "click" to unlock. Seems to be an intermittent fault. As I have the Blackberry (it is not purchased via a service provider), I tried to contact customer service for Blackberry UK, who seems reluctant to deal with consumers. My service, O2 have been much more useful. How can I get a warranty repair/replacement, or solve the problem?

    Well, after a WEEK, I'm totally furstrated with Blackberry. They have NO customer service in the United Kingdom, and as I have the BB (not through my mobile service provider, with whom I have a single contract SIM) I could get repair/replacement of parts. the only way I knew solving it had to spend many hours in an O2 store in the United Kingdom (my service provider) who finally had sympathy with me and agreed to sent for repair/replecement. I had one today renovated. It seems that this keyboard problem is common - the guy in the O2 shop showed me a way to fix it temporarily, hold down the ALT and right SHIFT buttons and press the DELETE key twice. This gives the BB a battery quick re-difficulty.

    But I (and all of my colleagues (will now go to the iPhones, which are more reliable and they give better customer service.)) SHAME on Blackberry for their shoddy products and the non-existenet customer service.

  • Work of the trouble on Sansa Clip Zip

    Hi - I have problems with the work on my Sansa Clip Zip.  Work does not show for each song.  For songs ripped in the Zune software will show the work.  However, for the ripped songs in iTunes does not show the work.  I tried to put .jpg files in the folders with the songs, make sure they are of size less than 100 KB and even tried to resize one at 200 x 200 pixels (though the size was too large of pizels overall size was fine).  Any ideas?  Thank you.

    Use 'album art.jpg' (without the quotes and with space, not a line of underscore) or "folder.jpg" (again, without the quotes).

    I'm not 100% sure, but I think .m4a files Apple 'protected '. The Zip will not play them. They would need to be converted to a type of file supported as .aac (Apple DRM-free format) or .mp3 (universal format).

    You can use MP3Tag above (free to download) software to incorporate images of cover art in the "extended" part tag. Note that you need to do this for each (long) file rather than the image one (album art.jpg) for all files in the folder even the opposite effect.

  • Sansa Clip + does turn on at all!

    My Sansa Clip + (4 GB) will not turn on. I tried:

    • By pressing the power button while up to one minute
    • By pressing the power button and the Middle up to one minute button for
    • Plug USB wall adapter
    • Connect to computer

    No sign of life at all.

    I loaded full yesterday and I used it this morning, but an hour later it just stopped working.

    Help, please!

    I found the problem:

    Sansa clips don't work not in sous-zero temperatures, and when they fail, they are not off, so it's a combination of battery flat and temperature.

    FIX: In a setting slightly warm place (sometimes several days) just leave it plugged and turn it on.

  • 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.

  • Sansa Clip + got wet, only volume buttons do not work, the volume on a PC?

    Hi my Sansa Clip + has been for some time on the rain and I guess that wet - volume keys do not work, all other functions OK

    TI now on "too lo wvolume" I solved it before that.

    1. is it possible to adjust my volume (now its too low after reset) on a PC connected via USB? Kind of hack volume...

    2. it should not happen, but I try send a guarantee? Maybe the wet sensors are OK cause it was just a rain...

    Any other probability/cost to fix in any fix Center "e"?

    Thank you!

    First of all, NEVER try to turn on or turn on an electronic device while it is still wet!

    You will very probably short something internally that will kill him forever!

    1 n °

    2. the warranty is for MFG. any defect of manufacture or material only! It does not include misuse of customer, as leaving in the rain, take it into the shower with you, a fall in the toilet, he swims, wear or leave it in your pocket and then do your laundry.

    2. SanDisk has not not any Center electronic "fix."

    The only thing you can do is to place the device in a bag of uncooked rice dry several days absorb moisture inside.  Since you've already played with wet it is doubtful that this will help, but it won't hurt to try.

  • Sansa Clip barely working

    My Sansa Clip works more yesterday, I don't think it was even after connecting it to my PC. The problems:

    • When I try to play music, it starts in mode 'break '. Won't even play when I 'force' in playback mode
    • slow start and stop times
    • I can connect to my PC, but the only display of file is DevIcon.fil (182 612 bytes)

    Can't use it and I have no ideas left. It is completely charged, about 40% used space, the firmware version is 02.01.32F.

    On your Clip, try the settings-> Format.  Note that any music currently thereon is erased.

  • Work doean can't Sansa Clip after crash

    Hi guys!

    My Sansa clip 2 GB drive has dropped by 30 cm (12 in.) and now it only works when connected to the computer.

    You have any ideas how to fix it?

    Thank you!

    Looks like probably tore the battery cable loose. This seems to be a common problem with the Clip. I hope is not as vulnerable to this problem than the clip Rev1 rev2 Clip. If your clip is set to connect in MTP mode, then on your pc you can check tharge on the battery. This could help you confilm it's battery cable that fell off. If you have your receipt when you bought it, and it's less than a year, you could RMA return to Sandisk for repair under warranty. Otherwise, you could open yourself and solder the wire on. Depending on where you are, it might cost $30 or more for an electronics store to fix it. In this case, either it is logical to set, or buy a new player.

    Unfortunately, Halo 2 does support Windows Vista and more.  Windows XP is not supported.  There may be 3 party hacks that can make it work, but they are not taken in charge and potentially dangerous.

  • 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.

  • 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
