So I just got a 4 GB rocket

Two years ago, I bought a Sansa M240. At the time, it wasn't so bad. Now, it is pretty much trash. I've been condsidering get a Zune, but the "rocket" is on sale for $50 today. It was sold out literally everywhere, but it wasn't onsale at Walmart, so I'm here and showed some flyers to other places and they price match it. It looks good, I haven't used yet but... been busy. My first question is, why should I get a video converter? Then, can I add songs like I did with the M240? With the M240, I would open my computer, click on the MP3 player, go to the music, then open another folder with my music and add just above in the other window. Then, I heard that only it recharge a number limited times. I cannot see that it is true however, but is it? Finally, how is the sound quality and comfortable are the headphones? Thank you. Oh yes, how Red in the newspapers and online showed that it is really bright and ugly, but when I went to the store, it was really dark red and beautiful looking. Oh yes, how update you it? The training video was not working. What is MSC mode too?

The Sansa Media Converter must be used to convert the videos to a format (and size) that the rocket can read and process. People have had degrees of success (or failure) with this property. I suggest that you go through the Sansa Media Converter here.

Then, can I add songs like I did with the M240? With the M240, I would open my computer, click on the MP3 player, go to the music, then open another folder with my music and add just above in the other window.

Yes.

The "rocket" uses a Lithium-polymer battery. It's good for the years of support/say-charging cycles.

Finally, how is the sound quality and comfortable are the headphones?

Sound quality is among the best there is in portable devices. Only you can tell how comfortable the included earbuds are. Most recommend getting cheaper after-sales-sounding ones.

Oh yes, how Red in the newspapers and online showed that it is really bright and ugly, but when I went to the store, it was really dark red and beautiful looking. Oh yes, how update you it? The training video was not working. What is MSC mode too?

Sorry, time s up! You were the one who said "at last."

OK, a gift from more... videos here cover pretty much everything, and Yes, they work.

  • Hi guys, just got my rocket today, help with album art and a few other things please.

    Hi guys just got my rocket today well.

    slight problem is that all my album art displayed on the legacy, therefore, some is not... so far I just open the folder my computer sanza and meant a lot of album in there from my office. Any ideas why some of the art appears, but some doesn't?

    Also is there anything else I should be doing now, I own one of them? Am I very reccomened to download. updates etc.

    Please me school on that I've never owned anything like that before.

    Thank you very much.

    There are a few things that you might want downlaoding, the thing most important (and most frequently recommended) to download Mp3tag. Then depending on your intended use of the reader you can consider to Sansa Media Converter, you will need if you want to play videos or photos (other than album art) on the drive. Definitally make sure that you update the firmware. Regarding next album covers the configuration of your tags are there are several ways to do so. Download mp3tag and use it to look at those who have worked the album art, then make sure that those who do not work is configured in the same way.

  • Just got a rocket Go 8 - bit problems

    Hi, as the title says.  Just got it out of the box and plugged directly on my computer to charge it up.  It turns on fine, changes in 'Writing' to 'Connected' and yellow signal shows on the load screen, and the battery starts to blink.  After about 30 seconds - 1 minute it stops to load, but the battery indicator shows only 3/4 full.

    My other question is, is the wheel means to feel really fragile and loose.  My girlfriend had an e200 some time ago and this wheel was nice and tight, and click when you the activated.

    Any help appreciated,

    Thank you.

    Compared to the series e200, which have a mechanical wiper for the scroll wheel, the Marshall and the view have a scroll wheel more sweet, which is a combination scroll 'rocker' to the four functions of the home button.  It feels more flexible, because it must turn and allow to toggle to the functions of the buttons.

    The charge function is interesting.  Do not forget that processor of the "rocket of" Treaty of communications and battery management, and if there is a problem with data, the processor can be diverted to charge.

    The more robust communication mode is MSC, in which the Sansa is seen by the computer as a flash drive.  MTP, or Media Transfer Protocol, is a method that requires Windows Media Player 10 or later, in which the Sansa is considered a media device.

    In both modes, you can see if load is progressing normally in looking at the battery icon.  When you reload, you will see connected logo and rolling, or with the latest version of the firmware, the four color logo sansa scroll arrows.  As the battery charges, the lightning bolt, as well as the Green battery starts flashing.  Once complete, you will have a solid green battery.

    If the computer does not supply enough current to the device, or communication session breaks, loading may be interrupted.

    If the device is plugged in, you can open Device Manager in one of the many ways, either through the control panel > system > Hardware tab > Device Manager, or by starting with the shortcut [Windows key] + [Pause/break] can follow the same line.

    If the Sansa is connected in MTP mode, you will see listed under portable devices, or in any case (including the MSC) it is usually as one low devices listed in Bus USB controllers, as one of the hubs.  Look for any wee yellow triangles, which means that there is a communication problem with the device.

    Often, the USB ports on front-of-PC are connected with a wire to the cheese and will not provide the necessary current to the Sansa.  You can try to use one of the ports mounted at the rear.

  • I just got a new SIM card

    I need help with my new number on an iPhone 5 s. I just got it and have to start using it today but when I put and write my icloud account it wont let me because the carrier is not supported on the device. I have to treat it as if I gave my phone to another person or is there another solution?

    Its looks like the iPhone is locked.

    Only the carrier of the iPhone is locked, can unlock the iPhone officially and if you qualify.

    Bought second hand iPhone?

    If this isn't the case, you use the same carrier?

  • I just got 6 seconds more and chose an old backup date of previous phone. How can I do it again?

    I just got the 6s more and chose an old backup date of previous phone. How can I do it again now that my phone is done with the set up?

    I don't know what you mean by redo. If you want to restore from a more recent backup, you can do so, providing that you have a more recent backup.

    Restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support

    If you have a backup you want to restore, you must first clear the device in settings > general > reset > erase content and settings. After the unit starts again, you will be at the activation screen and will be able to restore this backup, when you get to this point in the implementation process.

    If you back up with iTunes and you want to restore a backup from there, you will have the option to select all the backups that you have when you select restore from a backup.

  • I just got a new modem (Arris SB6190) and now my Airport Extreme does not connect.  It worked fine with the previous modem (a rented one TWC).  Help!

    I just got a new modem (Arris SB6190) and now my Airport Extreme does not connect.  It worked fine with the previous modem (a rented one TWC).  Help!

    Always recommended to reset the airport back to settings by default and then set up again whenever you have a new modem or change your Internet Service provider.

    Turn off the new modem for at least 30 minutes. More is better.

    Perform a hard reset on the AirPort Extreme, then it turned off.

    Make sure that the Ethernet cable connects the modem to the "O" on the AirPort Extreme WAN port

    After the power of the modem 30 minutes down, turn on the modem and let it run for at least 5 minutes by itself.

    Then, turn on the airport and let it run a few minutes

    Set up AirPort Extreme again

    Important note... There are many reports of problems with the modem Arris SB and airports. Both are great products, but they do seem to work perfectly together for some users.

  • My Mac was purchased in November 2014. The fan makes a noise Purring but stops when I lift it and hold it vertically. I just got this back from repair to the workshop of John Lewis as he made a further strong noise.

    My Macbook (one and a half year). The fan has become noisy and I just got in return for repair from John Lewis. The problem is that I think that it is still too noisy. He runs not fast, but it is noisier than it was when we bought it first.  The fan noise also stops when I take the Mac on the end. Is this normal?  Thank you.

    There is no such thing as a MacBook 1 year and a half with a fan.

    The 12 '' MacBook isn't a fan.

    The last MacBook with a fan was the 2010 model.

    Perhaps you have a MacBook Air or a MacBook Pro, if so you should post your question to one of these areas of the forum.

  • Just got an iMac nine to use domestic and it is incredibly slow

    Hello

    I just got an iMac 2015 submitted for use in the home, and it is very slow. I just implemented this evening, and I found that even before you install anything but immediately after you set up the computer, it could slip. So I decided to continue to get the parameters of my set and when he continued to be very slow (beach balls, long for applications) to open, impossible to install Office, etc., I decided to run Etrecheck.

    This seems to have solved some problems, but as you can see, I run not really much at the moment other than Safari, which makes me fear. Has anyone else had problems of this kind? Is there a way to reduce the amount of memory used by El Capitan, or could I possibly downgrade to something like Yosemite? Or do I just have a defective machine?

    Thank you!

    Memory is not the problem, OS X is not the problem, nor the computer the problem; It's the shit you have loaded on the computer. Here's a suggestion.

    Install Yosemite or El Capitan, from scratch

    Restart the computer. Immediately after that the chime hold down the command and R until the Apple logo appears. When the Utility Menu appears:

    1. Select utility disc in the Menu Utility, then click the continue button.
    2. When loading disk utility, select the volume (entered into withdrawal, usually Macintosh HD) in the list to one side.
    3. Click Delete in the main window of disk utility. A panel will fall.
    4. Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).
    5. Click on the apply button, then wait for the done button to activate and click on it.
    6. Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.
    7. Select reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

    [Exclusive to use the foregoing authorization to theratter by khati.]


    This should install a new copy of Mac OS X on the computer. Now, install any third-party software and give the computer a few hours to complete Spotlight indexing during which the computer will run slowly. Then it check to see if it works OK. Do not install any third-party anti-malware or software equipment cleaning as you had installed before. You have not need software Path Finder, CleanMyMac or other MacPaw, Spotify, or stream. Part of the problem is the installation of the software that is not completely compatible that looks like DropBox. You may need an updated version.
