These re the songs that came with the player even if it is brand new, and plus since these artists don't want these to be copied they use a special method to hide them form any OS, hope i helped....

heres what you can do;
once plugged into computer, click on "my computer" icon.
Find the sandisk sansa product, and look through all the music files,
once found the files, delete any of the files as you wish

if that dosent work, im afriad that your going have to delete everything and start fresh again.

Go to Windows Media Player under the Sync tab, over on the far left should be the name of the player, click on it and find the name of the song by album title, artist, or whatever, click on the title and click delete and you should be able to delete any song you like without deleting them all

Plug it into the computer and then click on "open device to view files when the window pops up. From there delete your songs on the computer by left clicking a song once and hit "delete" on your keyboard. Viola! Its gone.

reformat it. 1. right click on my computer and select manage. 2. go to disk management on the left panel. 3. right click on the sansa icon, and go to format. 4. make sure that the file system is under FAT32. This worked for me, hope it does for you.

connect your player to your computer and open your player from there and you wil see the songs you have downloaded and if you wanna delete themyou can select them all and then select delete
