when you plug the device into the computer, it should bring up a box that has how you want to synchronize the device. I have always used Windows Media to do this. There is a tag that has sync on it. Clicking that tab will bring up a split screen in Windows Media. The right side has the music that is already on the device listed. Right click the artist or song that you want to remove and select delete from device. Note: This is for Windows Media Player, it could be different with other programs. Hope it helps.

I just tried this, and Media Player says there are no files on my device, but the ones I wanted to delete are still on it. Help! I want to delete files. I went on the Sansa website and did what it said, but it didn't work either.

You can delete it when the device is docked. Just open the MUSIC folder and delete the file you no longer want. A 'My computer' type search would also allow you to find the file and delete it again with the device being docked

You're right, it took me a month just to find a protective case for my gigabeat online. I don't really have an answer to your question, but have one of my own. Since the gigabeat runs off of windows and so does the zune, then can I use my gigabeat to download music/video from zune.net? Very frustrating to have recieved this thing as a gift and not really be able to use it for anything.

I'm Not sure How to explain how I did it.. but I changed the format of the File and then added it to my mp3 player. So I just wanted to let you know it can be done.. You may want to get someone who knows a little more about computers and converting files to come and help you guys out...

I just wanted to add my .02 cents. R. Knowlton's 'delete Windows Live' advice worked for me also. I spent the better part of 1.5 days on this 'CIFS Sign In & Password' nonsense fruitlessly trying all different ID's/Passwords, messing with folder permissions, etc... It wasn't until I delete Window Live that I got my LG BX580 to find my shared folders on my Windows 7 Home PC. I had to delete everything with Windows Live attached to it (I thing it was Windows Live Essentials and Windows Live Sync that I deleted). Once deleted and my PC rebooted, my LG BX580 found my shared directories and played my files...including my HD .mkv files. No password required...just showed my folders and the files play when selected. I consider this a major 'bug' with either LG or Windows Live. They DO NOT work together.

Don't think there is a way to upload or delete files without using software that comes with your device or some other.

As luck would have it, I found "Dore.exe" on an old backup. It's a 982 Kb file, with no other files associated, and when I click it, it says that it's going to unZip some files, so this could be what you're looking for. Understand, I make no promises, guarantees or warranties, but I'm happy to send it if you want to try it... Question is, how would I get it to you?

Go to the menu, like the music, and every song, every item in Chinese, delete. It won't affect the program, the Chinese music really sucks, so it was the first item on my list, and was how I learned to delete it. I gave this a horrible review because the company sent me the wrong item, well, they sent me a free player, and you guessed it, it still sucks..if you can't figure out the delete just sent another message, and I will do the by the numbers....Lew

I don't listen much to music, mainly books, but it should work the same way. I also cannot get the Clip to delete anything by itself. When the Clip is plugged into my computer, I look at the Clip Zip in Explorer, as if I was looking at any other external hard drive. There are subdirectories for Audio, Music, Recordings, etc. You should be able to find your songs there, and hit delete on your keyboard to delete just as you would any file on your computer. Hope that helps.

My brother did it for his daughter, sorry but I am not good at these things. It should be off of windows media is my guess. But only a guess.

How did you delete the audios? Did you reformat the recorder, or delete them off the recorder one by one, or cut and paste onto your computer?

You can delete songs. However, I couldn't figure out how to download videos yet.

I have never attempted to delete the preloaded games in my phone (But this doesn't mean that I might not need to one day). I have, however, noticed that when I open the games page, and highlight any one of the preloaded games, and then when I open "options" it shows that I can delete, move or copy the games individually. I am assuming that if I deleted a game, it would remove it from my phone and allow my phone to have more memory. I hope this helps.

When you connect to your computer, your computer should recognize the device as a "USB Device." In Windows, look in "My Computer." Once you connect, you should be able to explore the device/drive. DO NOT DELETE any of the files you find. If you are successful connecting, there will be a folder that contains .mp3 files - I was successful with adding files to that folder that were then usable. However, with all that said, the device itself is very difficult to use, especially if you are expecting it to function like an "iPod." I hope this helps.
