Can you delete contents from the music player (i.e. one song or one video)? Or Do you have to connect it to a computer?

You can delete songs. However, I couldn't figure out how to download videos yet.

You can delete the song or songs one by one without hooking it up to the computer. I only hooked it to the computer when I was downloading the songs to the mp3 player. You have to have allot of patience with this player. I bought it for my son.

You can delete from the player one song or video or picture at a time without connecting it to a computer.

To answer your question informatively, yes. In the system settings there is an option to overwrite last night's videos(for example). And if you say no. It will keep them until eventually your SD card runs out of memory. Also if you are curious whether this deletes other content inside the SD card besides the videos, the answer is no. The system makes a folder named "Videos" and only affects that folder. All other contents are left unchanged/unaltered. So you have no worries.

I loaded songs onto my MP3 player, and have one in my cellphone for loading pictures which in turn loaded them onto my computer. Easy to use and remove from any device and edit the content. Can also be used for document storage if needed.

You cannot just drag and drop, it will rename your files and not recognize the album or artist name on many tracks, these tracks will go into the folder unknown and will not play.

I figured out how to remove the pre-loaded songs. Connect your player to the computer and through Windows Media Player, under sync, it will list the songs you have currently in there. Click on the ones you don't want and delete! Voila. It really was racking my brain as well.

Protip: No player (as far as I am aware of) requires proprietary software.Proof? I have an iPod nano sitting on my bed, now, that has music loaded onto it, none of which was loaded using iTunes. I used MediaMonkey. If your proprietary software forces you to buy new versions of songs you already have, then scrap the software, because chances are, it's not actually proprietary.

first hook up your unit to your computer and go to the Music file on the unit. delete the music folder. Then delete the "tmp" folder on both the MSC mode and the MTP mode. This should delete the playlists as well as the songs.

Delete songs directly from the MP3 player? No, I don't think so. You have to plug it into the USB port on your computer and use Windows Explorer to search for the drive (i.e. Removable Drive E:\) and go into the folders of songs or whatever, and delete what you don't want.

You can delete it when the device is docked. Just open the MUSIC folder and delete the file you no longer want. A 'My computer' type search would also allow you to find the file and delete it again with the device being docked

How did you delete the audios? Did you reformat the recorder, or delete them off the recorder one by one, or cut and paste onto your computer?

I just tried this, and Media Player says there are no files on my device, but the ones I wanted to delete are still on it. Help! I want to delete files. I went on the Sansa website and did what it said, but it didn't work either.

yes, although they are arranged by when you loaded them onto it and cannot be sorted alphabetically or any other way. songs loaded will frequently become corrupt as well. pass this one up, spend a few more bucks on a better model and you'll be happy you avoided this awful mp3 player

Absolutely, I have a variety of folders set up (example soft rock, Jimmy Buffet, Instrumentals, etc. I have them on a 16 Gig micro SD card. There is a button to skip folders and buttons to skip songs.... Sound is great for its size

No , will play any music ,even from a drag and drop . Don't know the max , but I 've found the larger the drive , the more time it takes to go thru the files

Yes you can. You touch the playback button (looks like a screen with an arrow wrapping around inside) then push the center select button with "Record" highlighted, and cycle through your videos with the left and right arrow buttons. When you find the one you would like to delete you touch the "M" button and a dialogue will come up. It gives you the choice of deleting one, deleting all, or protecting it. You would select "Delete one".

It will take mp3 files from computers much like a usb drive will take a file off a computer. In fact you can use this mp3 player as a usb drive. It will only play files that it recognizes.
