Songs Listed but Won't Play

MP3 players Sansa Clip | Clip+
1

I’ve downloaded around 200 songs to my clip.  The songs were all free downloads from the internet - no licensed/subsciption music.  There are numerous songs listed that don’t play.  The screen shows the song has paused and there’s no way to make it continue.  I have to forward on to another song - very annoying. 

After reading numerous posts I’m wondering if it has something to do with being either an MTP or MSC format?  I had my Clip set to USB, Auto Detect when I copied all the music.  

Is there some way I can fix this?  The songs that don’t play won’t copy back to my computer (using WMP).  I was planning on changing the USB to MSC format and syncing them back on the clip to see if this would help. 

In the future do I need to change the USB to either MTP or MSC (instead of Auto Detect) prior to copying music to my clip?  Will this prevent the problem? 

Thanks so much for your help.

Thanks for you quick reply.  OK, a dumb question.  How do you find out what the format is?  I’ve tried to check and can’t figure it out.

THanks,

On my Sansa Clip, my music (.mp3) files play fine.  However, my AudibleAudio files (.aa - format 4) won’t play.  They seem to sync ok from my WMP but no sound.  I have downloaded the AudibleAudio books from my paid subscription and they play fine on the WMP.  Just not on my Sansa Clip.  Any suggestions?
