I have a Sansa 200E. It uploaded every song that was on the family computer and now I cant get any o

I tried the menu that lets you remove songs and it says that the player is not connected even though it is. Going to anythingbut ipod.com is useless and I can%26#39;t find any useful information there. Thanks for all the help!!

Answer:

the Sansa has two modes wherein it may connect to the computer, the MSC (Mass Storage Class) mode and the MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) mode.

If you are transferring un-licensed, non-protected songs, you may transfer them using the MSC mode by simply copying them to the Sansa. This mode also allows you to use the Sansa with Audible files. If you are transferring music that you have purchased or music that are licensed and/or proctected, you would need to use the MTP mode. To transfer these files, you would need to use Windows Media Player 10 or some other Music Softwares such as Rhapsody and Napster.

If you add songs to the Sansa in one mode, then switch to the other mode, you will not be able to see the songs from the previous mode, though the space used on the Sansa will still reflect their presence. If you cannot see your songs on your PC in one mode, please try viewing them in the other.

In order to change the USB mode of the player, follow these steps:

a. Tap the "Power/Menu" button of your Sansa and go to "Settings".

b. Under "Settings", there should be a "USB" option. It would then give you the choice to change it from "Auto Detect" (MTP or PlayForSure in Sansa e200R) to "MSC (Rhapsody in Sansa e200R)".
