I received a Sandisk Sansa View 8GB for Christmas and tried to connect it to my Dell Inspiron laptop (XP SP2). It would not connect to the laptop. I connected with the USB cable and the PC indicated a new MTP device was attached and then indicated that a problem has occurred during installation and your device may not work properly. The Sansa View device was not recognized and did not appear in My Computer.
I jsut purchased an 8GB sansa view mp3 and I downloaded it like I was suppose to and it does not work in Rhapsody at all, also in the windows media player it shows that the device was installed correctly but it still doesn't work and I still can't sync my songs to it. The sansa icon won't even show up

I used my Sansa View the other day and it worked just fien. Today I turned it on and the screen is really messed up. It looks almost like it was cracked, but whenever I don't use it, it sits on my desk away from anything that can mess it up. What do you think happened and can it be fixed?
ok i just had the white screen issue after some squezzing thinking it might be something loose i randomly decided to turn it on wile holding the left button and to my surprise im greeted by the word SANSA and not a white screen. hope this can help someone

We owned a Somerset pre-treated hardwood floor you would like to know if the Bruce hardwood and laminate cleaning system is good for the use of maintaining the floor or we have to use the bona cleaning system
Thank You
Yes, you can use the Bruce hardwood floor cleaner. I've used it many times to clean up after jobs. It brings a nice shine to the floor and is designed for either a hardwood or laminate floor. Hope this helps.

My computer won't recognize my sansa view.
your computer can't notice your device because the are no drivers on your computer for it, try putting the installation cd in your computer and let your computer find it, unplug it then plug it back in it sholud find it, leave cd in drive until it finds it

I need to replace the headphone jack for my Sandisk Sansa View 32GB mp3 Player. There is a crack down the length of the headphone jack, and I can usually only get audio out of one headphone at a time. Is this something I can repair myself, or is there someplace I can send it to get repaired? If I can do this myself, how, and where can I purchase a new headphone jack?
Buy a broken one with the headphone jack intact off Ebay and switch the jacks.

My sansa view won't turn on, the blue ring illuminates but that is all it does
Alright it seems your sansa is on its way out. I had to essentially mash on the center keypad while holding the power button in the on position before it finally worked. Be prepared to buy a new one, mine only lasted for 2 weeks after it started doing that
