Cant load songs

I have a 2 GB Sansa c200 and I have the software installed to load songs but when I try to drag songs over it says they cannot be imported. If I try to go to convert media files, I find the song folders but no songs inside. I have looked under all file types but no luck? Help please!

I have sucessfully loaded my player with all sound formats. Then...my music got wiped out. Now..I can't load any mp3 formats back onto my player. I have the player set to MSC and I am using Media Player to download. My computer loads some music but shows "ready to copy" on the mp3 format and won't copy to the player. Totally bummed. Any ideas?

You dont have to do all dat stuuff above, i went through the same issue and all you have to do is download a mp3 file from limewire for example or whereever and then drag and drop it into windows media player, also you can rip songs from cds and then you drag and drop the songs in media player to the column on the right of the media player. when there in the column you press sync and they appear on the ipod.

SOURCE: Can't load songs

ive had this same problemo. you cant use the media converter to drag and drop songs. you have to download your songs or rip them onto windows media player. you plug in the sansa and then when its recognized there will be an area on the right hand side where you drag the songs and they appear on sansa.

My Sansa c250 is not seen by my computer. the drive has a yellow exclamation mark

Sansa c200 series – Computer/OS Not Recognizing
Connect the device to the PC in MSC Mode
View/c200: Turn on then press and hold the rewind button while plugging to the PC
If that fails, unplug the Sansa from the computer. Uninstall all the Sansa software in the add/remove programs section of Control Panel. Reinstall the clean version of the software from Sandisk’s website – make sure you get the files for the c200 series. Then replug the Sansa and try again. The root of the problem is that Sansa has one set of drivers and Windows has another. If you plug the mp3 player into the computer before installing the Sansa drivers, the Windows drivers will trump the Sansa’s.
Here is a helpful link from Sandisk on the problem with extra information on Vista operating systems:
