I used the 30-day free Rhapsody trial but elected not to renew it. Now I can’t seem to get rid of it.
(1) I continue to get the message “Your subscription has expired. Connect to your PC.” everytime I turn my Clip on.
(2) There is also a large “zero” next to the battery indicator on my screen. I’ve read somewhere that it indicates the number of days I have to renew my Rhapsoday subscription.
(3) The 3rd problem is there is a “Rhapsody Channel” choice where the “Music, FM Radio, Voice, Recorder, etc” are listed.
Do you guys have any idea how I can fix these annoying problems? Immediately after the 30-day free trial expired I “Reset All” and lost all my music so I don’t want to try that again. Thanks for any suggestions.
Two methods to get rid of Rhapsody:
- Place the Clip on the floor, and step back. Raise your hands in the air, flail them about, run away, and scream like a little girl, yelling “clowns will eat me!!”
2. Oh, that didn’t work? On the device, select Settings > Format > Yes. Poof. No more Rhapsody data. UPDATE! For those in a similar situation, formatting clears all data, not just the Rhapsody music files. I’m old school, starting with 1-inch tape drives and 12 inch platter drives. To format is to write nulls on the entire platform, a clean sweep. (I assumed that the only music here was the Rhapsody content!) Bob
Let me know if your wee dot and nag screen disappear!

Running around yelling like like a little girl didn’t help at all. However, reformatting worked wonders…no more Rhapsody! You are my hero. Thanks!
Well, now you’re not my hero. I just discovered reformatting deleted all my music…bummer. Guess I have to start downloading all over again. Thanks anyway for trying.
All you have to do, is:
-
connect the device to your PC, using a USB cable
-
open Windows explorer, and find your SANSA device listed
-
click on the “+” sign next to the device, then go down to services.
-
click on the “+” sign next to Services, and you will see Rhapsody listed as a service.
-
click once on Rhapsody, then hit your delete key. This will remove Rhapsody from your device, WITHOUT DELETING ALL OF YOUR MUSIC.
-
now disconnect the SANSA device from your computer, and power on. you will no longer see the message.
Props to me for not making you delete all of your files.
