Sansa e280player turn on problem

Hi
Check the Manual
User’s Guide


Hay Don't worry it will work
Note: Some low-power USB ports may not be able to provide enough
charge power. Also note that rechargeable batteries may
eventually need to be replaced as they have limited charge
cycles (which vary with use and settings).

Li-ion Battery
The Sansa e200 MP3 player comes with a replaceable and rechargeable
lithium ion battery. To use the player for the very first time, remember to
fully charge the Li-ion battery. You can charge your Sansa through the USB
port of your computer, a car adapter (not included) USB port, or AC adapter
(not included) USB port.


Please execute the following instructions for charging the battery using
an USB port.
1) Connect the smaller end of the USB cable into an available USB
port on the computer
2) Connect the larger end of the USB cable into the dock connector of
the player
3) The computer must be on for most USB ports to charge your
battery. Your Sansa will show connected and the yellow charging
indicator will appear. The battery level indicator will blink while
charging. You will not be able to play while connected to the
computer USB.
4) To stop recharging, disconnect the cable.
The battery can also be charged using an AC adapter (not included) or
a car adapter (not included) and you will be able to play your device
while charging with one of the adapters. The battery will reach
approximately 70% charge in 2.5 hours and full charge in about 3.5
hours. It is recommended that you fully charge your Sansa e200
before the first use.

let your battery run out by leaving you mp3 player play as long as it can....then open up the back of the mp3 player take out the battery and put the battery a freezer for an out or 2 then let it sit out for a day then put it back in the sansa and recharge it and it should either fix it or help add more life span to the charge

you are spoiling the battery.you should not charge it to 6hr,well 1hr-2hr is very suffiecent.
problem with your battery.so use it and recharge it when it says low battery.
recharge it only 2hr not more than that.

sounds like you are on the right track
let the battery recharge for at least a few hours, unplug and replug the unit to see if you get a response
if you dont get a normal response hit either the reset switch or the reset mode (manual should tell you how to do so) and you should get a response out of it
if you do not have the original manual you should be able to find it on the manufactures website

Your battery is low, therefore the player is shutting down.
Recharge the player by plugging it into your computer for 3-4 hours - make sure the hold/lock is not activated, or it will prevent proper charging.

Battery is rechargeable by plugging into computer. 19 hours is probably not right - more like 8 or 9.

Sansa's website has manuals, faq's and more at:

make sure you pick Sansa "Fuze" for the m240 series

Have you tried recharging the battery? If it is not showing when you connect it to your computer, try holding down the Menu/On-Off button for 15 - 30 seconds and see if it goes on. 
If you need a new battery this is a good place to get one:

The battery has come disconnected from the charging contacts in the back.

Remove the 4 screws, remove the battery from the back and re-insert it.




Best of Luck.
