RECOVER DELETED FILES on SANSA

I downloaded FREEDELETE, but when I run it it does NOT see the SANSA portable player, so I cannot tell FREEDELETE to scan that particular player. It gives me only the options to SCAN drives C, D, and E...I cannot see the SANSA portable player...even though the player appears when I click (My) Computer - without running FREEDELETE!?

    You should connect your player to PC (as removable drive) and then you can try to recover your deleted files with Easy Drive Data Recovery software:http://www.munsoft.com/EasyDriveDataReco... It uses unique modern algorithms to recover files that other software either recovers incorrectly or is unable to detect.

Yes, you have chances to recover the files from Sansa. And the first thing you should do is stop saving more songs to the music player. Then take a try of this data recovery tool as it is capable of recovering various audio formats including MP3, WMV and more. Best regards.

You may try some recovery software to rescue the files on your MP3 Player, here are some for your option.

Photo Video Music Recovery (for Windows)
Photo Video Music Recovery for Mac

Both programs can also recover video and music files.

Note: Before your files are recovered, do not attempt to save more files to the MP3 in case the original files(your recordings) are overwritten.

OK! You may try to use another data recovery freeware to take a chance!
The deleted files are not completely destroyed after the deletion process as we think. They are still there, o this MP3 player. So, you should take chances with another deleted data recovery freeware:
http://blog4mark.blogspot.com/2012/12/deleted-files-recovery.html

PS: Never try to save anything else on this player in case of data loss.

While the data were deleted from mobile phone, they are not deleted permanently. You can still get them back from the memory card with memory card recovery software. I advise you to use Card Data Recovery. It is a nice photo recovery program that can help you recover data from all popular mobile phone memory cards. It has two versions separately designed for Windows and Mac users. To see more detailed information about it, you can refer to its official website:
Card Data Recovery for Windows(for Windows users)
Card Data Recovery for Mac(for Mac users)

Hello, cristianratz! Don't worry. I recommend you to use this photo recovery software (also recover audio and video files); it can help you recover your lost music from your Mp3 Player:
Photo Recovery for Windows Users
Photo Recovery for Mac Users
Kind Suggestion: Before your music are retrieved, do not save more files to the device (or memory card) in case the original files (your music) are overwritten.
Best wishes!

How do I recover a recording deleted accidentally from Sansa e250

It is possible to recover your lost recordings.

First things first: DO NOT take any more recordings with the MP3 that you want to recover records from in case you may quite possibly ruin your chances of recovery.

Then Connect the MP3 to your computer as it should appear as a "Removable Drive" or put the card in a card reader attached to your PC.

Next, if you are comfortable with using a PC then you can download a data recovery utility that will recover your recordings with Wondershare Recovery Software from the following link:

Video Audio Photo Recovery (if you are running Windows OS)
Mac Data Recovery (from MacUpdate site)

Do NOT try & write anything back to your MP3 until you can recover your recordings safely!

You can try this software. The trial version will search for and display the deleted files. So if it shows the file you want to recover, you may need to buy it to recover the files.

How can i recover the deleted files?

When you delete something from any disk it's not fully deleted until the sectors of the disk are overwritten with new data or formatted. If you haven't added any new data to your Sansa I suggest running a file recovery program such as File Scavenger. http://www.download.com/File-Scavenger/3000-2248_4-10623250.html?tag=lst-0-1 This is a link to demo and but it will scan you Sansa and see if the file is still recoverable. You can either purchase File Scavenger or use a free file recovery utility. I haven't tried any of the free file recovery programs on Download.com because I purchased File Scavenger but good luck.
