Are you trying to record while it is "locked"? I believe you can lock the whole device so you can't accidentally press a button. Are you familiar with this? Let me know if you need help figuring out if it's locked or not, I am trying to research this now.

You are NOT supposed to re-format using your PC...you re-format just using the device itself...refer to your operating instruction to try to re-format again or download instructions from www.olympusamerica.com

Hi gff9,

If your recorder still won't work after replacing the battery, it's often caused by the [HOLD] switch. To correct this problem please follow the steps below.

Inserting the Battery:
1. Lightly press down on the arrow and slide the battery cover open.

2. Insert 2 size AAA alkaline batteries, observing the correct polarity.

3. Close the battery cover completely.
--> When the [Hold] switch is set to the direction of the arrow, the display is turned off after [HOLD] is displayed. Follow the next step without regard to it.

Note: An option Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery (BR401) from olympus can be used for the recorder.

Replacing the battery:
1. When the low battery appears on the display, replace the batteries as soon as possible. Size AAA alkaline batteries are recommended.

2. When the batteries are depleted appears on the display, and the recorder shuts off. To replace the battery, make sure that you set the [HOLD] switch to the opposite direction of the arrow before replacing.

Hope it helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.

Olympus vn6200pc won't power on. I can plug into pc and play files and screen comes on but if not plugged into computer it wont come on. Tried disassembling but no obvious cause seen...

If your Olympus VN-6200PC digital voice recorder is not turning on, even when it's not plugged into a computer, there could be a few different reasons. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
  1. Check the batteries: Make sure that the batteries are inserted correctly and that they have enough power. If the batteries are low or dead, the device may not function properly. Try replacing the batteries with fresh ones.
  2. Check the power switch: Make sure that the power switch is in the correct position and that it's not stuck.
  3. Check the firmware: Make sure that the device's firmware is up to date.
  4. Try a factory reset: Some devices have a factory reset option that can be accessed through the menu or by holding down certain buttons. This will erase all data on the device, but it may fix some software issues.
  5. Check the charging port: Make sure that the charging port on the device is clean and free of debris.
  6. Contact Olympus customer support: If you have tried all the above steps and the device is still not turning on, it may be best to contact Olympus customer support for further assistance. They will be able to diagnose and fix the issue or tell you if a repair is needed.
It's important to keep in mind that the Olympus VN-6200PC is an older model device, which makes it harder to find replacement parts and professional repair services.

Is the vn6000 or vn 6200 compatible with windows 7 ?

The Olympus VN-6000 will likely not have a PC/Mac USB connector cable, so, if you want to transfer files to your computer you would be better off looking at the Olympus VN-6200PC.

Display screen flashes "CHK" repeatedly

Hello.

From FixYa Support: The "ERR" message reportedly means a memory error.

Please NOTE: This solution will wipe out the memory.

Press the STOP and DISP/MENU buttons at the same time for about 2 seconds, and then the display should show "FOR". It will supposedly erase the whole memory, but will at least make the device usable again.

Hope this helps.

My Olympus VN-3100 voice recorder has suddenly stopped working! When I switch it on it flashes CHK for a couple of minutes then says ERR

I had the same problem with my Olympus VN-5000. I found a solution, which appears to reformat the memory (ERR means memory error). Try to press the STOP and DISP/MENU buttons at the same time for about 2 seconds, and then the display should show "FOR". It will supposedly erase the whole memory, but will at least make the device usable again! I hope this solution works for your model.
