Hello: Could you tell me what MAC you have please? I can not get my Sansa e280 8gig device to connect with my G4 emac. The screen of the Sansa says connected but nothing showing on my Mac. It did show as a volume a few times. Why only a few times I don't know. I have the USB mode set to MSC. Thanks for any help.

Yes, I was able to use it on a Mac. I did have to go into USB and have it recognize it since it plugs in via USB not speaker like usual. The USB is supposed to give you more clarity. I have not used it enough to confirm that though. Good luck!

Sorry but I do not know if it is compatible with Mac, but I sure like them. I have 2. But, I do have a co-worker that uses a Mac. He will be in later today & I'll get him to try it out and let you know how it goes.

I don't know... but I do know that I have a sansa MP3 player (it uses Creative software) I LOVE IT! I just can't find it again. This feel like a piece of crap and I haven't used it yet. I'm not excited to use it and I'll probably NEVER buy a sansa product again. I wasted $40. The quality feel of this piece of junk is so bad I would get a Dollar store MP3 player before I'd get this, and I'd feel as I upgraded. I don't recommend it.

I'm not sure. I would caution that my experience with sansa mp3 players has been mostly negative. I had earlier mp3 players without a touch interface and these were pretty good. The players with touch were so dreadful that I'd never buy another Sansa device.

This device used the "Media Transfer Protocol", written by Microsoft. There is no official support on the Mac, but you can download a third party application to transfer music. http://www.wentnet.com/projects/xnjb/ It lists the player as "fully tested". Please note that the FAQ says it only works on OSX 10.3 and up, but this shouldn't be a problem if you're buying a new Mac. The site doesn't make it clear that you can use the software to transfer video as well, but it sure looks like you can from posts in the forum. Please note that I have neither a Vision:M or a Mac, so I can't guarantee anything.

I accidentally answered yes to this question, however, I can't seem to find any mention of Mac compatibility on their website. So, I'm going to have to go with no. Sorry.

the sansa does not fit, but if you jack it in with the white cord, it plays fine. true, it does not fit in the dock, so if aesthetics you're after, I guess it won't work for you. the sound it great even if it doesn't dock in.

I have not tried it with a MAC yet, but their web sites says it is compatible. http://www.ionaudio.com/products/details/slides-2-pc-express

If the Mac has Bluetooth then yes, it will work wirelessly. If not, it is not hard to find a USB Bluetooth dongle to plug into the Mac for a couple of bucks. Search Amazon for USB Bluetooth adapter and you will find plenty. Else you will have to use a wire from the Mac sound card output to the Aux In socket on the back of the Creative.

I am reasonably sure this will work fine on your mac because they are bias toward mac. I use audition and sound forge and get stellar recordings for our work. It's the playback through the unit that is the problem so we have graduated to a motu audio express . A bit more money but a lot more performance. Buy it through amazon and try it. If you have problems send it back.

amazon forwarded me your questions since I purchased this unit from them in past (and love it by the way) - am not 100% sure if it is compatible but I would imagine it is since you can import directly into your Mac as a Wav file and then flip it into MP3 or any format you wish - which in turn should work with those programs which I assume are audio text reading programs......but better to go to a Mac message board rather than a SONY or Amazon one to get exact correct answer -

I know they don't officially support Macs but if i plugged it in using the usb cable would it recognize it or no. It's kind of a deal breaker for me so i was wondering if anyone had any info.Thanks!

No, Itunes is incompatible with Sansa e200 series. You can add songs in either MSC mode or MTP mode. MSC mode allows you to view files on your sansa in My Computer and then drag and drop your music files. In MTP you are able to sync your music to your sansa using windows media player (version 10 or higher).

I really couldn't tell you. I don't have a Sansa Clip. I'm using them on my MBP and it sounds excellent. I'm enjoying listening to music again.

Ooh, I'm running it on a Mac , but as I recall, it's compatible with both. Pretty universal. Nice unit too . Sorry I can't be more specific. Good luck tho !
