Use SanDisk MP3 Players
SanDisk is an electronic device manufacturer that creates
various types of MP3 players under the SanDisk Sansa product line.
The SanDisk MP3 players range in storage capacity, starting
at 512mb, and are intended to operate on the Windows operating system.
Most SanDisk MP3 players also include a built-in video
player with a color screen, an FM radio tuner, and a memory flash card slot to
expand the MP3 player's storage capacity.
Use SanDisk MP3 players to take your computer's MP3 library
with you and listen to music wherever you go.
1. Verify that your computer meets the operating specifications required to
sync the SanDisk MP3 player with the PC.
All SanDisk MP3 players require Windows XP or later; Windows
Media Player; and a USB 1.0 port. A USB 2.0 is important if you want high-speed
music syncing.
2, Check that the SanDisk MP3 player has a full battery
charge.
All SanDisk MP3 players have a rechargeable lithium ion
battery, and some SanDisk devices have a replaceable battery.
The battery icon on the top right-hand side of the SanDisk
MP3 player's screen displays the current status of the battery's charge.
If the battery is low, recharge it before using the SanDisk
player for the first time.
To charge, connect the player to your computer's powered USB
port using the included USB cable.
The SanDisk player's screen will display a yellow charging
icon.

power button for two seconds.

releasing the button.

and can help resolve any problems you encounter while using the SanDisk MP3 player.
