Clip+ won't show up in Windows after Rockbox install

(1/1)

birthdaymonkey:
I just installed Rockbox for the first time. It boots up fine, but when I plug my Clip+ in to my computer it doesn't appear in Windows Explorer. I'm running Win7 64 and I've installed using the Rockbox utility and the .15 and .16 Sansa firmwares. If I boot into the original FW, the device works fine.

Am I just making a noob mistake or is something not working correctly?

gevaerts:
This is expected. Unfortunately rockbox USB support on the clip+ is not stable yet, so it is disabled.

birthdaymonkey:
Thanks for the reply. I guess it was a noob oversight after all.

I've managed to get it to work by turning off the Clip before plugging it into the computer. Then it boots the original FW and I can copy files normally. I assume this is the accepted workaround?

gevaerts:
It is, yes.

Just check the manual:
