MP3 on a MAC?

I bought a SanDisk 1G mp3. I have an iBook G4. I loaded about half the mp3 with songs and it won't accept any more, even if I delete some. The SanDisk came with a mini CD instruction disk. I took the disk and loaded it on a friends PC, and it installed some initiating software, and yet she was unable to load any songs on the SanDisk. I was told by someone that this mp3 is compatible with Macs, band someone else told me they weren't, but use with the Mac had likely corrupted the mp3 so it could no longer load any music from the PC.

If I'm going to return it, I have to do so tomorrow. Any hints?

A couple of things. Make sure that you empty the trash after you delete the items from the card. If you just move them to the trash, they aren't yet deleted, and are still taking up space.

Also, do the titles of the songs look like this "song1.mp3" If they have a different ending (.aac, etc) you won't be able to listen to them on windows media player. Also, sometimes mac hide the extension, which makes the files look cleaner, but Windows don't always recognize them, so make sure that you can see the .mp3.

Last thing I can think of, Macs & windows use different formats for hard drives. Windows CAN'T read mac drives, but macs CAN read windows drives. You may want to initialize the mp3 player on your friend's windows machine & then load the songs from your mac. That could be what the problem is.

good luck,

I had a 1 gig sandisk drive that worked fine with my mac. I think it was the e240 or something like that.
