After many years with my beloved Creative Zen, I bought a SansaClip. One reason was that I was hoping it would be more compatible with audiobooks from OneClick.(I use Overdrive all the time with no problems.) I was able to download and transfer a title to the Sansa. It does not show up in Albums or Audiobooks, only in the folder with all the tracks. The problem is that It plays them in reverse order. So if I'm listening to Part 3, when it gets to the end it goes to Part 2 rather than Part 4. Is there a way to arrange these is some sort of playlist without messing up the DRM? Is there something really simple that I'm missing? Thanks

I found that if I open OCD program and use the OCD Media Manager to initiate the download/transfer of book onto the Sansa Clip, all transfers as it should. If I access OneClickDigital via the library's portal and click on the book to begin an automatic download onto my computer AND THEN copy the audiobook onto the Sansa, then the play list/play order and the naming of files is all jumbled up and causes all sorts of confusion (more so if I check out/download more than one book at a time) because all files go into "Unknown" book and the chapters are not logically arranged.
Thanks, Kimberly. I did use the media manager. Funny thing is that when I put them on the Zen, at least they show up and play in the right order.
My SansaClip does the same thing with overdrive books. If it stopped at each section I would at least know to go find the next number but it'll start where it's all jumbled and I'm always (even though it's happened over and over again) wondering what in the heck is happening to the story. I also go through the download through their app and it still screws up. But it's free audiobooks, so I'll complain and still listen to them.
I hope my Zen lasts a long time, it works so easily too. I have trouble with One Click, have to use win zip to download the files and transfer over with Windows Media Player, a pain but as you said they are free.
I have never had a problem with OverDrive. I love my Zen. The Clip was a backup in case the Zen died.
