I purchased the Sansa almost a year and since that time can not my computer or any other computer to recognise it …I USE (xp)…Please Help needed essential…i wait
Is this the Sansa Connect?
You say no computer you’ve tried can recognize it, so my guess is the problem is with the Sansa Connect, but just to make sure … you need to have Windows Media Player version 10 or 11 installed in order for a computer to recognize it.
You could try reinstalling the firmware. If you don’t care about the WiFi capabilities, follow these instructions:

If you want the WiFi capabilities, read the last post in this thread:

If you’ve reinstalled the firmware and you’re still having the same problem … have you been using the same USB cable every time you try it? It’s possible the cable is damaged. (Though if that’s the case, you won’t be able to reinstall the firmware using that cable.)

You need to tell us exactly what happened.
You say you set up the recovery tool, but then you couldn’t “complete” it … what do you mean?
Also, are you sure you own a Sansa Connect 4GB, or do you own some other Sansa model?

I COULDNT do this(While holding down the Right Button, and Volume Up Button,
press-and-release the Power Button. Keep holding the Right
Button and Volume Up Button. After a few seconds, the device
will start and display a “Recovery Needed” screen.)
Make sure you’re holding the Right button, which is the button directly underneath and to the right of the screen, NOT the right edge of the scroll wheel.
