I’ve done this successfully, one time - copied songs to the Clip’s Music folder in MSC mode, disconnected, and after the database refresh, the songs were on the Clip. But this morning, no joy. I have about 20 MP3s in the Clip’s Music folder, but they’re not in its database.
And actually, the clip is a MTP device only. Try sending the songs through WMP (Windows Media Player) Make sure though that youre using WMP 10 or higher. WMP 10 or 11 installs drivers and files needed to your PC so you can see the device and run it correctly.
WMP 11 Is actually easier, drag and drop into sync list and click a button.

Are the ID3V2 tags in place? I know i’ve had songs with missing/incomplete tags that were difficult to find on the sansa.
Bingo … album tags were missing.
But this appears to have prevented the songs from being added to the database at all. Song titles and artist names were in the ID3V2 tags, but I couldn’t find the songs via the Clip’s Songs or Artists.
