I'm new here, but have had my e260 for quite a while and I'm mostly happy with it. I've been happy enough with 4gb, but now I want to expand the capacity. Can I use one of the new micro sdhc cards to bump it up 4gb, or am I limited to a 2 gb card? Thanks in advance for the input. e-Series Fri, 25 Jul 2008 16:10:57 GMT e260 User http://www.sansacommunity.com/forum/thread/11078/microsdhc/#discussion?src=103 http://www.sansacommunity.com/forum/thread/11073/Where-can-I-get-Rhapsody-HELP/?src=103 I recently lost everything on my pc....and I no longer have access to Rhapsody.....I need to download it again and can not find it to download.

The battery life is phenominal! I must have used it all day for 3 days and the battery wasn't even half-ways empty until I used it on the 4th day, and THAT was after using it for 3 hours! I LOVE the "delete feature" on the player where you can delete any songs you no longer want in your library without having to connect the player to the Rhapsody Library. The volume is great also where you can set the equalizer/tone to either Rock, Pop, Jazz, etc. I have Philips earplugs that come in crisp & clear, so purchasing the right earphones makes a significant difference in the sound quality. My only gripe is that I dropped my Fuze 3 times on the 1st night I tried it, but, considering I bought a skin to protect it, it didn't rupture or scratch and worked just as well(thank God!). MY guess is they make these little gadgets a LOT more sturdier and stronger than when they first came out. What can I say? I have officially found my destined mp3 player for...

Obviously I'm new here and I just want to share my new-found excitement about my new Sansa Fuze purchase which I will be getting tomorrow. There's quite a story to this though, and I won't bore you with the details other than I only recently discovered that the Fuze supports Rhapsody Channels--this, after going mad trying to find out WHY Sansa discontinued the e200R series as well as trying to figure out HOW to order the updated version of that being the RhapPFS e200. The WHOLE time the Fuze was sitting right under my nose. And this, after having already bought AND returned an Ibiza Rhapsody(defective & too big), a regular Sansa e200 series(without Rhapsody Channels support), and a Microsoft 8GB Zune which was too big and awkward to handle. NOW I'm in Heaven! I really think that I have found my ideal MP3 player which is small, has lots of features for the money, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, has the Rhapsody DNA that I have sooo craved!! I have also read the online reviews about the Fuze and all of them gave it 4 out of 5 stars which sounds promising. I cannot WAIT to begin using it!...

It will be ok if you just play it on your computers with iTunes, or on your iPod. However, you may need to insert the music in a Power Point presentation, listen it on your mp3 player or set it as background music of your website or other legal personal usage, and you will find you are not allowed. All the iTunes music files are m4p format, it’s restricted. Is there any way to remove this DRM protection and convert the iTunes songs to widely used mp3 files? There are some ways that can achieve your goal. (1) In iTunes, these DRM protected songs can’t be burned to mp3 CD disc, however, you can burn them to audio CD, and then use an audio ripper to rip the tracks from the CD. It may be a waste of CD discs when you have plenty of songs which need to be converted. (2) Use the program named Noteburner . It has won the award of top DRM removing tool and the third place of audio converter by Top Ten Reviews, please refer to Audio Converter by Top Ten Review . Noteburner...

My name is Nilda and I'm a Sansa View owner. I just purchased this thing and have tons of questions about it starting with how do I know this thing is off? Everytime I put it down thinking is in the "off" mode, I cant ever turn it back on because the battery is drained.. Is there a website with some type of manual on it? Any help will be greatly appreciated!Thanx.

And to make matters worse, I am using the latest firmware so I just don't know what to do. I've heard great things about a more stable firmware with the fuze and I'm wondering how stable it is. Or if there is SOME way to fix my e280, then I won't really need to shell out 130 dollars for another player.

A: 1st: make sure your computer meets the minimum system requirements. 2nd: Check the device manager (if this is a windows PC), if the View shows up with a "!" mark, right-click on the driver, and select Uninstall. Then disconnect the View and re-connect it. If that fails, right-click and select update driver 3rd: If that fails, try downloading the MTP Porting Kit from Microsoft.com (XP) or download the KB940199 (Vista) 4th: If all the above fail, either force the player into MSC Mode (hold switch and press and hold the left or rewind button) and connect to the computer (done while the View is on). Or if you have the latest firmware (01.03.02), go into System Settings, and select USB Mode, and change it to MSC and connect it. If the player isn't recognized after all that, in either MTP or MSC mode (Autodetect is MTP BTW), try it on another computer. If it's recognized on another computer, then it's a Computer issue, and you'll want to contact your OEM or Microsoft. If it ISN'T recognized, then it's the View, at which point...
