Hi

I just inherited my daughter’s Sansa clip MP3 player, and it’s supposed to be 2 gig storage. After deleting all of her music manually (335 songs, one song at a time because they were NOWHERE to be found in any directory), I loaded mine in the “music” directory, but it would only take about 81 songs, or about 456 megs of storage. If I had more than that, when I disconnected from the computer the database refreshed but it stopped at a certain point. I had to remove songs (down th the 81 I mentioned) and then it was OK. If I put in one song at a time now, it refreshes - but one song at a time is a pain in the foot.

Anyone have a clue what’s going on?

I think the songs are still there. Try to do a reformat if it’s an option for you. ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sandisk/original/2X/8/89e303e1bebd7a98eec72f7c287baa259557cee9.gif)

Sounds like there’s an echo in here. 😖
