My Sansa c250 won't charge properly.\r\n

My Sansa c250 won't charge properly.
Initially when I bought it, I used it with a Windows XP PC, no sweat. That computer died and I began charging it with an OSX instead. It worked for a while, but after a time it wasn't getting a charge. I tried plugging it into other computers with XP (not mine), even got a wall charger and new battery and it still doesn't charge.

With the new battery and using the wall charger, I plug it in and initially it does charge, but after a short time (~10 seconds) it switches to the synchronizing screen instead, even though it is not connected to any computer.

Is there any way I can correct this proplem without using a computer or taking all the songs off?

I had a similar problem. My Sansa c250 would charge, when plugged into the computer. It would read that it was writing but the computer did not recognized that the Sansa c250 was connected. I switched to a different USB port and got the same results. I then realized that the two ports I was using were 1.0 port and idmedeatly when inserted in the 2.0 port it began charging and the computer recongized the Sansa c250. I know this won't solve every charging problem one may have. Changing the battery would be easier in some cases. Especially if they were sold like the AA or AAA.
