I was having also issue for “Not enough space for musicDB” on my Sansa Clip + MP3-player. Reset or formatting did not work with MSC disk management -tool because flash drive was not recognized at all correctly (it was visible, but not formattable).

What did work for me, was using NippurdeLagash’s solution (thanks!) from http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=68311 :

  • Remove external flash card from Sansa Clip player, if you have it 
    - Remove player from computer / usb cable
  • Start player with power button and instantly start pressing very rapidly middle button (the biggest button between arrow buttons) 
  • When you repeat previous step few times, you can get suddenly to main menu, instead of just seeing error message only ( “Not enough space for musicDB”)
  • When / if you get into main menu, format  the internal memory: navigate to Settings > System settings > Format > Yes (this will remove all your data “permanently” on player!)
  • Power off / on the player to see if issue was fixed

Hopefully this could help someone else too!

Thanks for the tip!   :slight_smile:
