Depending on how long you've had the player, the batteries may need replacing.
I have seen a problem where the computer would not recognize the player and would not charge it, however.
First, I recommend trying to charge it directly from the computer USB port (not the hub) if possible. If that doesn't help, try reinstalling the software for the player to see if the computer will then recognize it and allow charging.
If neither of these fix the problem, it's probably time to replace the batteries.
You can keep the Sansa plugged in without fear of overcharging. The Sansa will play while it is connected to a USB port that is supplying only power, such as a USB charger operating off a car cigarette lighter. It will not play while connected to a computer.
yes, plugging it into a usb port (either through a wall charger or a computer) will start to charge the mp3 player. an indicator that it is charging should show up on the screen.
Assuming the computer puts out enough juice, yes. Not all USB ports do.
Plug it in, and the Sansa should say "Charging" if it is charging. If it doesn't, try a different USB port if possible. If your computer has ports on the front/side and on the back, the back ones are more likely to put out sufficient power.
Hi it very much sounds like the on board batttery is not charged up, (not charging) hence when you plug into the PC it gets it supply from the USB 5Volts and plays as normal
You cannot play it from the device while it is plugged into the computer - you must use outside software like windows Media Player to read the device and then play the songs from the computer itself
If it just has a usb cable for charging then yes you would. The charging time varies but it generally shouldn't take longer than 3 hours to fully charge. Check your manual if you have one, it will give you more information.
