Ok,  It was a long short anyway.  I wonder if they will release a firmware update....

Thanks again

You have the latest firmware available for your Clip+ already. The 01.01.35 firmware (1st post in this thread) is for the original Clip (no +) model.

Highly doubtful (in fact I can almost guarantee) there will not be as both the Clip and Clip+ are discontinued now.

What is it you're trying to do and/or solve?

Please speak in full sentences--what are you asking or otherwise saying?

There is no installation CD. Some of the older players came with a mini-CD, but all that was on it was a copy of the User's Guide (which you can get here on the forum) and a free trial to Rhapsody pay-to-play music service.

Neither of which you need to use the player (although I would recommend reading the manual).

Hello

After upgrading my Clip+ from 01.02.16A to 01.02.18A through the SansaUpdaterInstall.exe installer, I followed the instructions to upgrade manually to 01.01.35, but it didn't work: After copying m300a.bin to the root of the device and disconnecting it from the XP host, the device didn't reboot. Hard-rebooting made not difference: It doesn't upgrade, and it's still running 01.02.18A.

Does someone know how to upgrade to 01.01.35? Should I try RockBox instead?

Thank you.

That's because you're trying to install firmware for the original Clip (01.01.35) on a Clip+. They are 2 different players and the firmware is not interchangeable.

01.02.18 is the latest for your model, so you're good to go.
