My sansa fuze at times freezes. I do not know why,

Hello,

When the blue ring is illuminated, first try the RESET for the Sansa Fuze.
The player should NOT be connected to any other device:
1. Slide and hold the Power switch up for approximately 20 seconds.
2. Release the Power switch.
3. To turn the player on, slide the Power switch up then release instantly.

When a RESET won't work or the player freezes again, UPDATE the firmware on the player in 2 steps.
The player should NOT be connected to any other device:

> step1: Enable MSC mode
1. Turn device OFF: when the player is frozen first perform step 1 and 2
of the RESET procedure:
1. Slide and hold the Power switch up for approximately 20
seconds.
2. Release the Power switch.
2. Slide the Hold switch down to Lock (orange colored dot showing).

3. Press and hold the left button ( |<< ) while connecting the device to the PC.

My sansa view won't turn on, the blue ring illuminates but that is all it does

Alright it seems your sansa is on its way out. I had to essentially mash on the center keypad while holding the power button in the on position before it finally worked. Be prepared to buy a new one, mine only lasted for 2 weeks after it started doing that

My sansa wont turn on, I took out battery to reset and blue ring

Try resetting your firmware via Sandisk's support site. If it still doesn't work, your sansa's mainboard might be busted. The cost of replacing it will be more than a refurbished one (under $40 online).
