THe problem is you need to use folders for the songs. If you place too many songs on the root , there is a limitation on the total number of characters the file system can handle. Its a FAT filesystem limitation. I recommend putting your music together in folders for each album. That will fix it.

Is there anyone who can answer alpinecow's question? Also, I heard that the Sandisk Sansa will not play chapters in proper order. Is this still the case?

I have had not problem with my card. It should work with the Sansa assuming that you have not formatted it for some system that locks the card, most notably a windows 7 phone. The question that you need to answer is if the Sansa will recognize all 16 gig of the card.

It doesn't say how many GB to use. I guess you can use up to 32 GB. I have another player that the max is 32gb.

Not at all. Just plug it into computer usb. Computer will see it as a drive. When you double click the drive you will see all folders on the Clip. Open your music folder and drag and drop your choices into the Clip music folder. Or you can load a micro SD card (up to 32gigs) with music and just plug it into the Sansa Clip+ players slot.

It's only 8GB which will probably hold your songs but adding 500 photos will push it to the limit. I would go up to, say, a 30GB Cruzer...that will hold all you've got and leave room to add lots more.

It comes with 4gb already installed and a micro sd slot on the side that allows you to add a micro sd card with as much as 32gb of space, expanding the capacity of the player for even more songs. 4gb is good for 800 songs-200 per gig. With 32 gb you can add even more music.

I have a different model, but same line. It played from a 500GB usb drive fine. The thing is it has to be formatted to FAT32 or it won't read. I use a 128GB flash drive on two different Pioneer AVH models fine as well. According to the manual there are file and folder limits though (I think 15K file/1500folder, not positive though), so 256gb may be overkill to be honest (I do have 10K+ mp3 on my 128 with room for more). I only tried the 500GB out of curiosity.Also a note on the 160gb iPod working... that's because it runs off the iPod o/s, making the size and format irrelevant. It also runs much slower than using a usb drive as a result. I have a different model, but same line. It played from a 500GB usb drive fine.

Hi John. The one I purchased was a 4 GB and that equates to about 3.75 GB of actual space to load music. There is programing in the drive so you lose a few MBs off that. I do like mine a lot and it is really so compact and easy to use; nothing to mess with, just load and play. I hope this helps. Mick

No, maximum supported external microSD/microSDHC memory card capacity for the Sansa Clip Zip is 32GB, and it must be formatted as FAT32. See user manual pg 27.

Yes, the Sansa Fuze+ MP3 player has a microSDHC expansion slot which allows you expand its memory by up to 32GB with a SanDisk microSD or microSDHC card.

I first bought a Coby -- incompatible with Overdrive. My only experience is with Sansa -- check BestBuy online; there was a good deal on 4 GB last month. It took me over 6 months to discover how to put Overdrive books into the Book section, rather than Music -- so, I am sticking with the Sansa Clip Zip.

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 did end up with one problem and had to call the company. I was deleting songs off the player, but the space available was getting smaller. It turned out that I needed to empty the trash... simple enough. As I said, I just got a mac (macbook) so I don't know if this type of thing happens often with a mac. But, make sure you empty the trash if you are deleting songs or the player will get filled!!

Sorry. Mine malfunctioned and I returned it. Bought the Sansa and love it. Anything you can download to your laptop or PC you can transfer to the device.

On my older Sandisk Sansa Clip+ offering, Under the "Music" Screen my downloaded songs shows as one list in the "play all" and "songs" menu selection. There is a folder browser screen also, which the internal and external memory is browsable to. The Sansa Clip Zip also works like this, I would hope the newest version the Clip Sport works similarly. there are adobe reader version of the user guilds at sandisk.com .
