My Sansa M250 is only 1 month old and won't recognize Music folders now when I plug it in. My PC does recognize the device but now it only shows Audible, Config and Record. Before it showed playlist, songs, etc. I only download audiobooks using Overdrive which has worked perfectly until now.
Re: My Sansa M250 is only 1 month old and won't recognize...

First, make sure it's a microSD card and not a microSDHC card. If your card is larger than 2GB then it won't work in the c250. Second, make sure all your music in a folder named "MUSIC" at the root of your card. You can have subfolders in that folder, but the top folder must have that name.
Make sure that the mini card is only 2g only a 4g isn't compatible.. Check in the sansa settings to see if the card is recognized...The folder and files are hidden. Connect the sansa and open up your
explorer so you can see the music folder Click on TOOLS on the top of
your explorer then click on FOLDER OPTIONS then click on VIEW Where it
say's Hidden files and folders click on Show Hidden files and
folders...You will be able to see the folder and music.. to undo reverse
info..
MSC will allow you to see the expansion card ( 2Gig E200 series 4gig Fuze) mtp won't.....MTP shows you your music folder in the media folder thats where you put your music plus expansion..... make sure your usb 2.0 driver is installed..Syncing to wmplayer puts music in the mtp music folder. change usb modes again and use the explorer to see the sansa msc lets you sync any Q/A IM or email me @ [email protected]
Try reflashing the firmware for your device you can find the latest firmware and flashing utilities from the SanDisk website. Make sure that you back your music up first because when you do this you are setting it back to factory settings.
Try connecting it to another computer and see if it will recognize it as sansa or removable drive. if it does then download the sansa update software and install it. Make sure you disconnect the sansa and connect it when asked. This will update your sansa and add the Usb Mode. Try to connect it to your computer at home it should recognize.... link for update software (http://mp3support.sandisk.com/sansa/Installer/1082/SansaUpdaterInstall.exe) download to a flash drive much easier Make sure USB mode is MSC I use my computer to drag and drop my music from my music folder to the sansa media folder.... Open my computer click on folder what ever folder has your music in it and drag to media folder and drop (click on the (+)where it say's sansa )
First, make sure it's a microSD card; the e260 won't work with microSDHC cards. Then use a card reader to copy music tracks to a "MUSIC" folder on the card. Install the card into the e260 and you will see the additional music.
First, make sure it's a microSD card and not a microSDHC card. If it's larger than 2GB then it's a microSDHC card and won't work. Second, make sure all your music is in a folder named "MUSIC".
I never use Windows Media to add music to my sansa... If you want all music to show up click on my computer and then click on the icon for your sansa. there may be a folder that says music but if not it is a hidden folder. if this is so you must go to tools, then folder options, and then the tab that says view. under this will be an option that says hidden files and folders and click show hiden fles and folders and OK. this should allow you to see the music folder. from here on you can just copy and paste all files.
I have had this problem for some time now and finally got through to tech support for Sansa and now have the solution:Worked for both 230 and 240.
Take out the battery in the Sansa player; Put on lock on back side of Sansa player; Connect Sansa to the computer, Once computer recognizes device cancel out of that media program; Go to my computer on desk top; Right click on recognized Sansa device; Click format; Click ok to delete files.
It is probably because you have folders inside of folders inside of folder... i just had the same problem and copied all the songs in a folder into the main folder IE dont do this sansa>music>artist>album>music file do it like this sansa>music>artist>file
