Sony TAM 100 Answering machine---retreive erased messages

  • Anonymous Oct 21, 2010

    If I am willing to have the answering machine broken, taken apart or ruined.

    does that make my chances of retrieving the messages any better

    Sorry no it is impossible to retrieve.I apologize because it sounds sentimental or evidence.I even contacted Sony chat support.It took about 45 minutes and the person trying to answer it obviously had no electronic knowledge and in fact was reading from a book.I do not blame people for coming here from what I saw as that is the first time I have tried it.She even admitted she had no background in electronics.I copy and pasted the transcript.If you would like a copy I posted it.Sorry :( Greg

    Also,please do not copy and paste it as I have some good ideas of who to send it to already.There may be certain issues with the company about the legality of copy and paste a session which I will DEFINITELY research as long as it takes to get an answer.I already have a question for a lawyer and may bring this up.Trying to get in next week.It may seem extreme to you but with the knowledge base minimum you should know,these people are no way qualified to be answering these questions you saw if you read the transcript.A 45 minute session due to looking up answers in a book is really not good.It is a 1 minute question with someone who really knows operations.Greg

Saving messages

I went to the following Sony website and asked a technician in their live chat room (which I highly recommend if you have any Sony related questions), and he said my messages would be stored on my machine indefinitely even if I unplug it and place the machine in storage.

Step I: Set the Remote ID (security code) on themachine itself:

1 Press (SET/REC).
2 Press (ANSWER ON/OFF).

A voice guide will say: “Pleaseset the security code. To select, pressthe SKIP or REPEAT button. To enter,press the SET button”.

3 Set a two-digit number between 00 and 99 bypressing (SKIP/QUICK) or (REPEAT/SLOW). Press (SKIP/QUICK) to increase a number, or (REPEAT/SLOW) to decrease.

Each time you press (SKIP/QUICK)or (REPEAT/SLOW), the answering machine announces a number.

4 Press (SET/REC). The remote ID code (security code) is set,and you hear a long confirmation beep.

To change the remote ID code(security code), Enter a new remote ID code (security code). The new code will replace the old one.

Note: If a powerinterruption occurs, the remote ID code will not be erased.

Please See Next Post to Continue (my response exceedsallowable text restriction ;-) ).
