I think someone needs to go through smiley re-hab.

 

“Calling Dr. Drew!”

Yes, rehab immediately, before you end up looking like this!

 

Please Marvin . . . I just ate!

If you were to look up the word ‘skank’ in your dictionary, I’m sure it would say, “see Amy Winehouse”.

I called before I went. some lady told me that I can return it, so I went…and I got there showed em the reciept and they told me this >.> “we don’t do exchanges.” -__- I told them what was the 2 year warranty for then? and there response was… … . “It’s only for that mp3 so If you want to get it exchanged you have to send to the manufactor from where the mp3 is from.” >.> Why the heck did I buy warranty for 2 years with them then?!?!

If you can make it til the end of the month maybe a fresh firmware and a format of the fuze after thats installed your problem will go away.

lol… Guess what conversion box…My fuze wont turn on anymore lol…It was working fine an hour ago :cry: :cry:. is there anyway that maybe…just maybe I can get it to turn on again? hold power switch or something??:cry::cry:.

**EDIT**

UGH For some reason it didn’t want to turn on when I plgued into my computers Usb port…but when I plug it in throught my 360 it turned on >.> This fuze is acting really weird these past 3 days :\ I hope it last until the  end of the month :-\

Try it. Soft Reset, Plug it in to a Wall charger. You have heard all the things to try.

29

I just re-read this thread…seems like a mystery to me…weird! Mine’s been very well-behaved in the 6 months I’ve had it…I can’t help but wonder if it’s because I don’t hook it up to the computer very much. Greed, sorry the Target people aren’t being very understanding about the whole thing. :cry:

haha. well hmm I bought my fuze in 1/10/09 at 7:55pm :stuck_out_tongue:. It just started acting up 3 days ago out of the blue :cry:. Speaking of acting up lol. while i was on here I was listening to music on my fuze and I thought the song ended and my fuze just died with full battery lol…now it wont turn back on lol. I’ll see if I can get it to turn on through my 360 again O_o.

*edit*

I guess it just needed a soft reset again O_o?

Hey mine stopped showing up about 2 days ago. No charge, no sync, the computer seemed to have disowned it. I have an 8 gig Fuze and use Windows Vista.

I know it is not my cord, as I plugged it into another computer (also Vista) and it worked and charged fine.

I know it is not the recent firmware update, as it worked on the other computer.

I believe it is the device driver:

I went to Device Manager and under Portable Devices my Sansa Fuze 8GB had a yellow caution sign icon. I opened up Properties and under Device Status, it said: Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

Click ‘Check for solutions’ to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.

I clicked Check for Solutions, and am now awaiting a response.

I also, on the Driver tab, updated the driver and supposedly it is up to date.

Hope this helps, and we can all come to a solution.

*EDIT*

Also, none of that other weird stuff has happened to me, just that the computer hates it. I bought mine October of 08.

*EDIT*

WOWWEE WOW WOW I just in the device manager here it is 15 mins after i posted this, uninstalled the device, then unplugged it, then plugged it in again, and it WORKS.

How WEIRD

Hi,

    I had the same problem. I had to go to my Device manager and uninstall the fuze player and when I hooked the player back up it installed the driver software off the MP3 player. Now it works.
