I'm an 29 year old guy.I'll always do my best to give well considered and sincere advice - give me your best shot. P.S. Don't be afraid to ask me private questions, I rarely spend a lot of time answering non-private questions.
o.o There is apparently a FORUM for me if you would like to talk about random non-advice stuff. Take off your shoes!

Ok, I have a Sansa Sandisk mp3 player. Well, I wanted to create a favorites playlist and the directions on the manual said to press and hold down the select button to get into add/delete mode, but when I do this, nothing happens. I know I'm pressing the right button. Why do you think this is happening? Also, it only 109 songs. It just seems like a really random number to stop at. Like, whenever I try to put another song in the Removable disc, an error comes up and says I have too many songs (not in those exact words). So I'll take one out, and it works again. I just want to know if it's supposed to stop at 109 songs and why the add/delete mode is not working. Can anyone help me? Thank you!
Hi,
I don't have your player so I'm not answering the add/delete part of the question.
109 songs is a great number to stop at. It's over 100. If all your songs are 4 minutes long, that's more than 6 hours of music. I'm sure you don't even need that much. Anyway, that's not the answer to your question.
The player isn't limited to 109 songs. It can probably handle up to like 200 or 300. The limitation is space. All of your MP3s take up a different amount of space, depending on how long they are, and how much they're compressed. A long song compressed well might take up the same space as a short song only lightly compressed.
Basically your player is full. If you REALLY want more music, try finding something that will re-compress MP3s, and compress all of your mp3s smaller, like to 128kbps or even 96kbps.
You should get maybe twice as many, if all the mp3s you were using before are the regular bitrates you get from downloads.
(Then again, maybe your player converts everything to generic bitrate when you import, that's possible)
apologies if it will only accept 109 of any bitrate. That IS wierd...

(Rating: 5) Thanx, that makes sense. Maybe I'll try deleting some of the songs I don't listen to anymore.
