    DFELD2005 10-13-2015 04:54 PM     \> The most recent [Clip Sport firmware] add the lock-out feature.     \> Just press down on the “back” button for 2 secs.  The on-screen message shows when you are locked.     \> Press again for 2 secs to unlock.     \> I think a new player out of the box has FirmWare from 2014 without the lock feature. I just purchased a new Clip Sport (and Clip Jam–more to follow regarding the suitability of each as a Clip+ successor). That Sport is version=1.22 (not the latest firmware for the Sport: see [http://forums.sandisk.com/t5/SanDisk-Clip-Sport/SanDisk-Clip-Sport-Firmware-1-27-released/td-p/340602](https://forums.sandisk.com/t/sandisk-clip-sport-firmware-1-27-released/68431) ) but it supports the un/lock UI described by DFELD2005. I can also confirm the complaint made @ [http://www.engadget.com/products/sandisk/clip/sport/reviews/12yc/](http://www.engadget.com/products/sandisk/clip/sport/reviews/12yc/) that the Sport’s buttons are very sensitive–simply brushing against them is enough to, e.g., play the previous/next file (and lose one’s place in the file one was playing). Hence, Sport users will probably want to enable and use the un/lock, despite the additional inconvenience. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.sandisk.com/t/clip-successor/50374)._
