How do you down load music on these?

I'll assume you're asking how do you put music from your computer onto it? You use a usb connection and just take whatever audio you want and put it in the appropriate folder.

Plug the device into the computer using the cord it came with. It should prompt a pop up (if not, check "my computer", it should be there) - drag and drop (or copy and paste) the music you want to put onto the device and that's pretty much it.

connect the MP3 player to the computer using your USB and you can copy and paste the music files from your computer into the music file folder on your device. Easy peasy. Just make sure your files are ".mp3"

Thru the USB port. Right click on the music you want to download and move it to the MP3.

There may be other methods, but I just plug it into a USB port on my PC, open Windows Media Player, and use the sync menu to download my music.

My MP3's are stored on a 16 GB mini Card that plugs into the side. I play them through the radio. If I wanted external speakers, I would make sure they are amplified speakers and plug them in the AUX IN port used for external headphones. The port is similar to the one on you pc's sound card (or built in), so if your powered speakers work with your PC, it's very likely they also work with the radio.

A USB to your computer. It works with your music files. I use Windows Media Player. When you plug it in it opens the program and you drag songs onto the sync list, then click sync, and in a few seconds the music is loaded.

What Brent said. Or get a audio interface. And connect them via 1/4" trs and USB. If your using these to make music I recommend the interface option as you'll want that for the sound card inside and it takes a load off your computer

If you convert them to MP3 or WAV they will work, I think native Apple format is not supported.

If they are CDs or on a flash drive, you should be able to. I returned my player because the the cable connection was loose and I had to hold it in to use. Too bad, because the idea of combining an MP3 with a CD player is good.

You can download mp3 or other music files like .flac to it. it is not a streaming device, and does not have an internet connection to use a service.

You need to power them with a receiver. You would run your computer into that.

You should be able to, but you would have to play the music from your computer or through Air Foil. Mine stopped working right, I never heard back from the manufacturer and I am unable to update the firmware.

Use a mic and play the music box as if you were on a phone call. Or possibly record them onto a CD with Itunes. Silver fox

Plug them directly into your laptop or phone. If you want them to go into a stero, you may need an adapter (from say Radio Shack) if it does not have an input for it.

Thanks for your response, but I do not understand what MSC or MTP modes are or how to access them. :( Do I open windows media player and then plug in my sansa? Is there a step by step instruction anywhere for people who are totally computer and mp3 illiterate?

All you need to do is create a Data CD full of MP3 music. Do not use Music CDs, just CD-R type discs.

You can purchase MQS music files and drag & drop them in the player using USB cable. Also can use iTunes.

You can use airplay or iTunes, Amazon Cloud, gMusic etc. Airplay is agnostic about the application and source of the music.
