Sansa e260 wont be detected by computer

I will have to double-check the documentation that came with that specific MP3 player, but I know that some Sansas will only support upto 2 GB in the expansion slot.

Check the usb port is enabled .

Go to Run and type "Devmgmt.msc" and press Enter.

Go to Universal Serial bus Controller. See if there are any red colored cross? If yes, right click and enable those USB Ports.

If it is enabled try with other usb ports . If it is not detected go to control panel ->add hardware to detect the player .

Hope this helps .

i just downloaded the converter who's on the page and he did it
simple isnt it

i have the same SANSA e260.....and the same problem....its easy just turn on your sansa then push the menu botton, slide the wheel in the center and at the end of the options say USB enter there and change usb mode from MTP to MSC mode.....and ready

thats what happened to my ipod there really isnt anything you can do. i really know how you feel sorry!

try to get a driver for the mp3 for the computer, and check if the battery is okay.

either unplugg it and try again or try a diff usb port

Download the Sansa Recovery Tool from the Sansa website.
Format - Erases Everything: Connect your Sansa player to the computer and open Windows Media Player. Click on the Sync tab. Pull down the drop down menu underneath the Sync tab by moving your cursor over the Sync tab and left clicking on the little black arrow underneath the Sync tab. Highlight "Sansa 1GB" (wording may vary slightly), and then select "Format." - this should erase everything.
Firmware Upgrade- Erases Everything: Get the latest firmware upgrade from Sansa - it updates the firmware and erases every song in the player all at once. Note: this method doesn't work if already have the latest firmware. Go to this website and click "Firmware Updater" to find out: http://www.sandisk.com/Retail/DriverDownloads.aspx
