Tips, FAQ, and Troubleshooting
This chapter provides answers to common questions you may have.
Question: Why do I get a screen with a lock on it when I try turning on my Sansa

Answer: The Hold switch is locked. The device is shipped this way to prevent
accidental operation. Look along the top of your device and slide the Hold switch so
that there is no orange color visible.
Question: What does “Device Not Authorized” mean? How do I authorize my Sansa
e200R Rhapsody?
Answer: Device authorization allows your device to communicate with Rhapsody and

your Sansa e200R Rhapsody, but if that doesn’t work there are three ways you can
start the process.

Other methods:
In Rhapsody mode, connect to your computer and drag and drop files from your
computer to Removable Disk/Music directory or a second Removable Disk (microSD).
In MTP mode, drag and drop files from your computer to the Sansa e200R Rhapsody
/Media/Music folder after selecting “NO ACTION” on initial connection to the
computer.
In either mode, you can also select from a variety of music software programs to
transfer/synchronize your files.
Question: Why won’t my album art display?
Answer: For correct Album Art functionality, the album art and associated music file
may need to be located in the same folder. See preloaded content as an example.
Question: What music file formats does the Sansa e200R Rhapsody support?
Answer: The Sansa e200R Rhapsody supports MP3, RAX, WMA, and secure WMA
audio files. Convert and transfer other file types automatically with the included
Rhapsody Media Player.
Question: What is MTP mode?
Answer: Media Transfer Protocol (MTP) is a protocol and accompanying set of drivers
developed by Microsoft to connect portable devices to a Windows XP computer and
synchronize digital media content between those devices and the computer.
Question: Some of my music files are on my player, but cannot be played. When I
select them, another song begins to play. What is wrong?
Answer: You may not have purchased the rights to play the song on an additional
device. To test this, try to play a song that you have copied from an older CD and
converted to MP3 format. If you can play that song, but not the song that will not play,
then you need to purchase the rights to play the song.
Question: Some of my songs are grayed out and cannot be played. What is wrong?
Answer: Check your Rhapsody account status. These songs need to have their
licenses renewed. Connect to Rhapsody while signed in to a Rhapsody To Go account
to renew them. If you do not have a Rhapsody To Go account, these songs will not play.
Your pre-loaded content will eventually enter this state if you do not have an account.

Question: Why does my photo not display in full screen?
Answer: Try cropping your pictures to 128x64 with a photo editing software
package prior to converting if you wish to display in full screen.
Question: Why should I update the firmware?
Answer: You should always update the player to the latest firmware to ensure that it
functions correctly and has all the latest features. This is especially important if you
are using a music subscription service.
Question: How do I access the player microSD card from my computer?
Answer: There is no need to change any settings. To access the card from the
computer ensure the Sansa e200R Rhapsody is set to Rhapsody USB mode (in
settings), open up My Computer, and your card should show up as a Removable Disk.
Question: How can I use non-supported file types with my player?
Answer: First you must convert the songs to a supported format. Then you can
transfer the songs to the player. Rhapsody Media Player will do this automatically, or
you can use the Sansa Media Converter to convert the files manually.
Question: In MTP mode, how do I drag files to the player?
Answer: As long as the files are a supported file type, they can be dragged into the
Sansa e200R Rhapsody /Media/Music folder. An alternative is to switch the player to
Rhapsody mode. Then the files can be dragged or copied to the Removable Disk/Music
directory.
Question: Is the player compatible with podcasts?
Answer: As long as the podcasts are in a supported file format and an appropriate bit
rate (32-320 kbps), then the player should be capable of playing the files.
Question: Why does my player say unknown artist/album?
Answer: Normally this is because the ID3 tags are missing information. In Rhapsody,
open My Library, right-click the song and select Edit Track Info to enter Artist, Album,
Song Title, Track Number, Genre, and Year and other information.
OR
On the computer, right-click the song and choose Properties, then the Summary tab
and click Advanced. Then you can input the data such as Artist, Album, Song Title,

Important - Safe Hearing Level Info
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
YOU MUST READ THIS BEFORE USING YOUR SANSA e200R RHAPSODY MP3 PLAYER
Congratulations on the purchase of your Sansa™ media player!
Your media player is equipped with a variety of features. To help you maximize your
listening pleasure, SanDisk would like to advise you that it is important to use your
headphones with your media player at a safe hearing level.
• Exposure or repeated exposure for an extended period of time to music and other
sounds that are too loud can cause damage to your hearing resulting in temporary or
even permanent “noise induced hearing loss”.
• Symptoms of hearing loss increase gradually with prolonged exposure at high levels
of loudness.
Initially, you may not even be aware of the loss unless detected with a hearing test.
HEARING LEVELS
To help you understand what may be considered a safe hearing level, the following
examples are included for your reference.
Examples of Typical Approximate Sound level
Sound Levels in Decibels (dB)*
Refrigerator humming 40
Normal conversation 60
City traffic 80
Motorcycles and lawnmowers 90#
Rock concerts 110-120#
Firearms 120-140#
* dB -A decibel (dB) is a unit of relative measurement of the strength of sound
wave. In decibels (dB), a measured signal level doubles with every additional 3
dB.
41
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
# - These sound decibel levels are considered harmful under extended exposure.
Information courtesy of the National Institute of Deafness & Other
Communication Disorders (NIDCD)
FOR YOUR SAFETY!
• Your hearing may adapt to higher volumes of sound. In order to prevent any harmful
impact to your hearing, you must control the sound emanating from your headphones
and set the media player volume to a low setting where you can hear it clearly and
comfortably.
• Studies, including one from NIDCD indicate that sounds of less than 80 decibels,
even after long exposure, are unlikely to cause a hearing loss.
• Listen to your media player at such a level that you can still hear conversation and
other people in your environment without shouting when you attempt to converse.
• It can also be dangerous to play your music with headphones/earphones at high
volume while walking, or engaged in other activities. You should exercise extreme
caution and discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.
• Do not use headphones/earphones while driving, cycling, or operating any
motorized vehicle. This may create a traffic hazard and may be illegal in some areas.
