What does the charging cable look like? I can't find one that seems to fit my Sansa....I've had it for 3-4 years.

It has a standard USB connector at one end and a special Sansa 30-pin connector at the other end. You can order one directly from SanDisk at

Sansa e250...computer will not detect

If you are using a USB connector [that connects extra ports to your computer] it sometimes doesnt work... so if possible hook the USB sansa cable to the main ports in the back of the server. It might also work to hook it in, and then go to 'My Computer' and see if it shows up there. Good Luck =]

Is the e250 Rhapsody compatible with BMW audio??

You might want to try a casette adapter, if your BMW comes equipped with a casette player - multi-adapters (generic) can generally be found for $10-15. BMW audio books appear to be in Mp3 format, so they should work with the Sansa player.

N u please help with connection problem

Are they bent or broken off? If they are only bent you could carefully straighten them. If they have broken you would have to replace the connector which I believe is a 22 pin connector.

Look at this link for more technical information on replacement of this connector:

Deleting files from Sansa e250

The only way I know to delete music files or voice or FM recordings, is straight from the User's manual on the CD: 1. Set the e250 to MSC mode. 2. Plug it in to your computer with the USB connector. 3. Open the Sansa e250 drive in My Computer and browse to the MUSIC folder (or RECORD folder)and delete the files there. (That's where you also add music files, by dragging from other explorer windows.) To delete (or add) photo and video files, you have to use the Media Converter, which you install from the disk that came with the e250.
