Hi, Not sure if you are still taking questions in 2009! I'm a 50 yr old who just found an ipod or is it mp3 player. I have no clue. I plugged my son's headphones into it and it comes on. Horrible rap music is on it. How do I erase that mess and record. I know I need to get a cord that is compatible with it. I don't want to ask my step son because he will humiliate me! It is a Sandisk Sansa - kind of small, with a screen that takes up half of it. Can I get moving pictures on this? I have a laptop and a flatscreen tv, oh and a cell phone. That is my level of electronics! If you can help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Anne in Ft Myers Florida

Anne,


Yes, you will need a USB cable (that you should be able to pick up at a Wal-Mart or Best Buy) to connect the MP3 player to your laptop. Once you do, you can use Windows Media Player to delete what is currently on the machine and re-load it with good stuff ;). The Sansa does have some models that show video - you may have to do a quick Google search with your particular model number to see what yours can do - you may also find a manual that you can download and read during that search! Hope that helps!
