Hi, guys,
Well after giving much advice here myself, I am finally in need of help!
My 2 & 1/2 year old 2GB Clip suddenly is not recognized or accessible on my computer.
I plug it in to the 'puter, but it doesn’t show up in My Computer nor the Device Manager!!!
I’ve tried MTP/MSC/Auto-detect/forcing MSC with center button…no difference (All I need is MSC- I just do drag and drop)
I tried different cables.
The computer does recognize other devices.
No changes to my 'puter- i.e. no new software or upgrades.
I’m running Vista basic on a 3GHz PIV.
Help! I need to access my Clip so I can add new music!!!
Anyone have any clues? It was working fine all these years with this same computer…
Tried reformatting- still not working…now I’ve got no way to get music back onto it =
I’ve been having the same problem now for a while. I’ve contacted customer service and they told me I need to buy another clip after going back and forth multiple times. l know it’s not much help but that’s the answer I’ve been given after 2 months of messing around with the thing. It still worked when I would go to an XP computer but now I don’t know anyone with XP anymore so I’m just stuck I guess.

Did you lock it onto hold and push the center button?
I tried everything-
I think the jack on the Clip that the USB cable connects to was the problem- everything else worked fine…it just wouldn’t make connection.
On my new Clip, I’ve put a piece of tape over that opening, so that when I’m on the riding mower or the tractor, dust and dirt won’t get in there.
Anyone know where I could get some kind of plug that would fit that opening?
