I was using my sansa c250 on a mac computer, and i accidently pulled out the player without "ejecting" it from the Mac. Now when i turn it on it won't go past the intro screen, and my PC says that the device is "Unknown" Is there any way I can fix this? I did buy it refurbished off Amazon.com though...

Well you can try plugging it in to your computer and when it turns on wait and see what it does but i would just leave it on and see what it does... take out andything that is plugged into it first though

You can. Just make sure you put the USB into MSC mode, so the Mac will see it. You can just copy files to it with Finder and use it like any other MP3 device. Also eject it before you remove it from the Mac. For MSC mode go into the menu and go to Settings and then select USB and finally select MSC.
do u have windows or mac system? if mac, Although MAC OS is NOT a supported operating
system, the Sansa player can still be recognized if the Sansa player
is only plugged in MSC mode.
MAC computers do NOT support MTP
A Sansa player in MTP mode when plugged into a MAC computer will NOT be detected or recognized.
MAC computers supports Sansa players in MSCmode
Sansa players can only be recognized by a MAC if the USB mode on the Sansa player is set to Auto Detect or MSC.
See answer ID 207 for instructions on how to put your Sansa player in MSC mode.
See answer ID 1141 for instructions on transferring music to your Sansa player using iTunes on a MAC computer.
Yikes! I would reboot, or delete all files that I've imported onto my music player and start from scratch. To avoid this from happening again, make sure you manually "Eject" the hardware before plugging it out.
