Good luck

I do mine through Windows Media Player
1)Plug in Sansa
2)Open up Windows Media Player and wait for the Sansa e250 icon to show up under the library. First time, might say 'What device is this' or 'Autoplay'-for autoplay,you click 'sync media files to Sansa e250 using WIndows Media Player'
3)When library shows, click 'Sync' if it is not already there.
4)Just simply click and drag the songs you want from the computer library to the list pane on the side.
5)Once your done, click 'Sart sync'

TO DELETE
1)Plug in
2)Wait for the icon under Library in WIndows Media Player
3)Go to Songs under Sansa e250
4)Right click desired songs and choose Delete. You only want to delete from Sansa e250-nothing else

Disable auto-sync in Windows Media Player - will solve your problem.

Try To Format The Player, Sorry I dont have Mac

hello!

here's how you will delete songs off your Sansa e250

step 1: Go to"MY COMPUTER
Step 2: Find and open the sansa drive
Step 3: Look for the music folder.

NOTE:
If you dont see a music folder you will need to go to the top where it says tools>then >folder options>then click on show hidden files>

Step 4: You should now see the music file. Go into it and simply delete any songs you don't want.

To delete files using the MSC mode, please follow these steps:
1. Open "My Computer" and Open the "Removable Disk" that pertains to the player.
2. Open the folder where you copied the songs, if applicable, and locate the songs that you want to delete.
3. Highlight the songs, press the "Delete" key and click "OK".
Using the MSC mode, you may also delete every file that you have put in the Sansa by formatting it. To format your Sansa, please follow these steps:
1. Open "My Computer" and right click on the "Removable Drive" that pertains to your Sansa.
2. On the drop down list that appears, choose "Format".
3. On the "File System" drop down list, select "FAT" if your Sansa is less than 2GB. Otherwise, select FAT32.
4. Click "Start".

Th device may be too full. You need at least 6MB for each GB of music on the device to create the "database" or GUI. Delete a few song, restart the device. Best of Luck.

Chances are that you are using windows xp. open up your sansa folder to where it says pictuer, movies, ect. look at the picture to see what to do. In your player folder click tools --> folder options --> View. Under hidden files and folders click 'show hidden files and folders, click ok. The music folder would now show up where the videos and pictures are. Simply open the music folder and delete the ones you do not want. By default the songs are sorted by artist --> album --> song.
