My mp3 wont turn on

oh thats easy if its on and it wont turn on , bascically to restart your mp3 you hold on to power and record and then put it on lock.

Thanks so much! Yes, the solution above helped me. Before, my sansa didn't turn on, and i unscrewed it and did exactly what the person above told me to. Thanks

I had the same problem. I just bought one for myself and used it for an hour while turning it off and on successfully about 5 times, and then it just stayed on. It was on for 5 hours stuck in the same position , frozen in time, until I could get home. I unscrewed the back, took the battery out, put it back in and now it seems to work normal. Hope you tried to do that. I think it will fix it. Hopefully it's not an ongoign problem. I've only had mine for one day so far.

Great! Hooking my e270 up to my stereo I shocked it. There were some tunes that I only had stored on there, nowhere else. I thought I would have to lose them if I ever got it to turn on at all. But sure enough, I took the battery out and put it right back in and all works well - all the tunes are there.

Happy Thanksgiving
