I too bought a 8Gb micro SD and fitted to Sensa E160, a 1Gb SD I have is recognised.
The card could not be recognised by the MP3 player, tried all sort of format variations to no avail. I do wish manufactures would give all information relative to products they sell, most of the forums would have less questions of this ilk.

I read somewhere that a 4 GB Micro SD card is the largest you can put in the SanDisk Sansa E260 expansion slot. It's maximum capacity is 8 GB, with internal + external memory put together. This is from what I've read. Hope this helps.

Why is there no manual with my sansa fuze

Hello,

For the Sansa Fuze there's a manual available in pdf format on the Sandisk support site:
http://mp3support.sandisk.com/sansa/UserManual/FUZE/fuze_userguide_en.pdf
Save this file to a location on your computer for later use.

When you explore "My Computer" the micro SD card with x GB memory, should be available as an extra external drive.
This drive will show up as an extra drive letter with a total capacity of x GB .

I have a sansa e260, 4gb capacity, that has a spot for micro sd mini chips. I recently puchased a 4gb mini sd ghip that is 4 gb and loaded it up with about 3.89 gb of music and the sansa will not detect...

The Sansa, in common with many devices which have been around for a while, will only recognize standard micro SD up to 2 GB, not the SDHC (High Capacity) variety.

Can 8GB micro SD be use in SanDisk Fuze 4GB mp3 player?

In order to use an 8gb micro sd, the device has to be SDHC approved. If you don't see an SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) logo on the device or on the owners manual, It isn't compatible. It will read up to a 2 gb micro sd card.

My new 8Gb Micro Chip Will not except music

The chip may be locked - consult the documentation for details. Also, that card is too big for the e260 to read - 2GB or less.

4GB micro sd card.

According to what I've read, you can double the original memory, but no more than that, so the max you can have on a Sansa e250 would be 4 GB (2GB internal memory and 2GB external memory). I also read that the micro SD cards holds
music only-no video.

Micro sd card

You can only see the card thru My Computer as a removable disk.

You can manually transfer the files thru My Computer by dragging & dropping then onto the card.

Best of Luck.
