    Hi,

    Hi, actuallye I've got Fisher Price by phone right now. Their support strategy is to exchange any failing product, they don't fix it by phone (at least here in France). Sadly this product is not available anymmore ...

    I had a error close to that one. It was a picture of the player with a flashing exclaimation. I couldn't do anything with the player. It was frozen. I plugged it into the computer and no results. I changed the batterys and got no results. I found the software and hooked it up to the computer again. It said there was a software update. I followed the prompts and it worked. The music player was back to normal. So those of you that have this player MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE SOFTWARE!!!

    jcfreak - I downloaded the software from their site but it didn't say anything about an update. Where/how did you get the update?

After leaving the software on my computer on for a while, it eventually prompted (on it's own) me saying there was an update available. I was so excited to see the prompt and I hit OK. It told me to connect the player to the computer before starting so I did and it automatically did an update. It appears to be working now! Sure hope this doesn't happen again!

My Fisher Price Kid Tough camera locks up and I can't do anything with it.

I noticed this issue as well. I connected the camera to my mac and moved the 100image folder out of the DCIM folder and deleted all the photos-deleting took several steps as the camera had them hidden somewhere and new ones kept appearing with the old names. Once I turned the camera on, it created a new 100IMAGE folder and works normally.

My Sister's kid tough music player is showing an exclamation mark...reset would do it, batteries would do anything...what can I do?

I found this on another post:
"I had a error close to that one. It was a picture of the player with a flashing exclaimation. I couldn't do anything with the player. It was frozen. I plugged it into the computer and no results.

After reading the post, I went to www.fisher-price.com/kidtough/ re-downloaded the software and installed/launched it but didn't get any updates. So I disconnected the player but left the Fisher-Price software running in the background and started doing other stuff. When I went to shut down my computer, I was about to shut down the Fisher-Price software when I noticed the message prompt "THERE IS AN UPDATE TO THE SOFTWARE, WOULD YOU LIKE TO DOWNLOAD IT"

Call fisher price and tell them and they will refund up to $150.00 without a receipt if you paid more then that then you have to have receipt showing that. All of the kid tough dvd players are breaking thats why they are not selling them anymore. I hope I was helpful.

It sounds like your rechargable batteries might be bad.
Try a new set of batteries. It might be a cheap fix.

Fisher price kid tough camera shows red-yellow-green light icon with an arrow on the red. Also the flash icon (lightning bolt) is showing in the bottom left of the screen. Emptied memory and changed...

We had the exact same problem. We transferred the photos off of the camera and then it went away. So possibly it is a memory full error or a card read error. I am not sure but the transfer solved the issue.
