I have a sansa mp3 player. I believe it's 1 GB and holds 250 songs. Anyway, I've used it about a week now with no problems. Today, however, I tried to turn it on and it appears to be totally dead. All I get is a black screen and nothing happens when I push the home button or reset clicker. I have connected it to my computer and nothing happens, the mp3 player remains dead and my computer shows no indication that the mp3 player is physically connected to the PC. What gives?

Deleting Files,Pictures,Videos,Audio Books, etc. from MP3 Player -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hook up your mp3 player to your computer Go to your desktop and double left click on "My Computer" When it opens you will see listing that says "Devices with Removal Storage" your mp3 player should be listed there. Right click on your mp3 player, and a window will open, right click on "Open" and now your files/songs should be visible. Hold the left click down and drag it across all the files/songs that you do not want this will highlight the files/songs you do not want, release, right click and then click on "Delete" Now your mp3 player should be clear of the files/songs you do not want. Be careful and do not delete files needed to operate your MP3 player.

Hi,
You may need to update the firmware on the device. The data base on the device could be corrupt. Follow the instructions in the given link: Updating Sansa Clip's Firmware
Try this. Go to settings, reset all. connect to computer, when the popup displays, select view files. all should be there. I had the same problem today and that solution worked for me.

You have to connect the mp3 player to the computer and refresh your device through Bearshare - their songs have fixed licenses, which require you to refresh every 30 days or less.
I guess you can try downloading it again. Shouldnt you still have the songs in your PC anyway? You can try to download it again using limewire or any other tool. Next time you can use windows media player 10 or 11 to delete songs by clicking on library and then finding the songs you want to delete on the list on the left which should show your Sansa connected.
I don't know about converting the MP3s to WMAs, but I had the same problem with "corrupt files."
What fixed that for me was instead of dragging and dropping files onto the Sansa, I synchronized them using Windows Media player, but only do 10-20 songs at a time, because if you try to do too many, they probably won't show up. I know it's tedious and annoying, but that's what did it for mine :) I hope this helps.
Try updating the firmware of your player. Switch the player to recovery mode (enable hold switch and press and hold the record and power button until you see on the screen welcome to recovery mode) download the sansa firmware updater on the sandisk website and install it to your computer. When it ask to connect the device connect the player and check if there are updates on the player. Also try to format the player it may be the songs on the player is causing the problem.
