Headphone jack Has anyone had a problem with the haedphoen jack? The first mp3 player i recieved did not provide a good connection with the headphones so i returned it and they sent me a new one. This one is a little better but still not good. Whenever i push the headphones in a the way it doesnt work and if i twist the headphones the connection will come in and out. You have to find a position that it works in and then make sure it doesnt move. Headphone jack Has anyone had a problem with the haedphoen jack?

Same problem. Had 2 Sansa Clips (1 GB) and no sound when headphone jack fully inserted. Had to be juggled repeatedly, kept falling out when in position to create sound. Sent both back. Got money back from Proton, but AM Sales pretends they never received the product back. Riiight. Ordered Sansa Clip Plus from Sandisk, and it's better than the other two, but still has places where it just doesn't give sound.

Yes, that is exactly why I have come - the headphones don't fit if you push the jack in all the way. What have you done? Did you return yours to the store, or did you contact the manufacturer?

To update this, there's a possibility that it's just inappropriately hard to push the plug in all the way the first time. I'm checking out the Sandisk forums and it is an occasional question there:http://forums.sandisk.com/sansa/board/message?board.id=clip&message.id;=19340&query;.id=178666#M19340I am going to try to force it in further tonight - beyond all reasonable expectations of how hard one should have to push a headphone jack in - don't really care if it breaks because if it doesn't work I'm going to send it back anyway. So I've nothing to lose.

I ended up returning mine and was going to try this player one more time but the people at amazon said they were just going to give me a refund so I just found a whole new mp3 player instead

I've had this exact same problem with 6 Sansa players. 4 Clips and 2 Fuzes. I returned them all when Sansa customer support could do nothing. I waited five months to see if they had worked out their problems and just got a 4 G clip from amazon. SAME PROBLEM! This truly sucks!

I Super Glued the headjack in place. If you only intend to use it with headphones, it works great.

Just a note to everyone, I did try pushing it in surprisingly hard last night and it DID work.Please give your jack another try. What's the worst that could happen? Just push it in HARD until it's flush.

I had problems with my Sansa Clip's headphone jack too. After 3 months, I started to only get sound in the left channel of my headphones. My co-worker had a similar problem with his Sansa Fuze. It sounds like Sandisk isn't making their headphone jacks sturdy enough.Anyone know if the Sansa Clip Plus' headphone is any stronger?

Barbara, had you tried really, REALLY forcing the jack in? Since I've had mine in July it's gotten easier to put in but right out of the package it was a VERY hard snap to get it in. What I *thought* was "fully inserted" still had another approx. 3mm to go.

Er, Would you please describe it more clearly? It always working with buzzing sound, or sometimes, or frequently? How your headphone works without amplifier, buzzing or not? Have you ever tried to change another adapter?

My problem with the earpiece is that it never feels secure in my ear -- if I walk with it in, it even falls out sometime. I have the smallest insert on the earpiece, but it doesn't help (note that I have the same problem with the standard iPod headphone) -- is there a solution for this?

I can't figure that out either! It would have been nice that they would include some instructions, huh? I think that part of the problem is that my computer is not compatible with this brand of MP3 player, so when I connect it up, nothing happens. :/ I haven't sent it back to Amazon, yet, though because it is always a pain to return stuff and I'm stubborn and still believe there's a way to get this thing to work! :)

Hi, I use an MP3 player and it is working for me :), I hope it works for you!

I also bought this item and experienced the same .My advise to you is to format the device then try putting the music on it via USB connector,IF it still doesn't work then there is a possibility that the problem is within the mp3 or USB.

I have the same problem and unfortunately have not been able to play music from it either. Maybe we can get an answer from the makers on what we might be doing incorrect.

Good question. My head phones arrived broken, also. Because I am so hard of hearing I was not aware of the faulty head phones. Finally, a friend told me they were not working and it wasn't my hearing to blame. Sorry I can't help with your question, but if you do find an answer, please, pass it on.

Yup, pops right up. The problem I reported may lie with my laptop? it's weird it works after a full shutdown and not after that, I've not seen that before with any other device so I continue to suspect the headphone. Just my bad luck to get a problem child? Aside from that it sounds really good.

I have no problem connecting headphones. I just use a pair of ear buds from the dollar store that work just fine. For some reason my husband's skull candy ear buds don't work as well, but not due to the case.

I ll got mp3 glasses myself, had no problem loading music, but after awhile it stop charging, do not have any clue what's wrong with it. My best bet the battery is not good. I am afraid to purchase another glasses, they are nice item when walking or working out.

I received the NOT bluetooth enabled even after the 2 rounds of exchange. Mine was supposed to be fulfill by Amazon and they said this is a special case that item does not meet the specification and it was under investigation in Sep-13. They could not fulfill me with a bluetooth Klipsch white headphone as the item was under investigation and in the end they refund me the full amount.It was a frustrating experience. Till now, Amazon still sent me this email to ask me to answer/comment assuming that I have the Headphone, what a joke.

I've had no problems with any of the headphones I own, except for one pair that has a stereo jack connecter (1/4" plug) that I use a bulky adapter for. All other standard headphone plugs have been fine.

Hi. I think I did not understand the head phones. Apparently they connect by blue tooth to external music including iphone and presumeably MP3 players but does not have MP3 on board itself. It has no onboard memory. I still like the unit although it does not store the earphone pieces. I like it thus far.

I would give Bose a call. I did not experience anything like that. In fact, my cord gets snagged and fly out of the actual headphone all the time and I still don't have a problem like that.

Did you ever solve this problem...mine does the same thing and it makes listening to audio books so hard to do. If not...can you recommend a MP3 that does not do this.
