On the left side of the player below the hold button is a hole labeled rmy mp3 freeze i cant do any thing - moz-screenshot.pngeset. insert an unbent paper clip until the unit shuts down (Blank Screen). Then press the play/pause key until unit lights up.

If this fails, the firmware of your GoGear may be corrupted.

  1. Make sure that your computer is online and connecting to the Internet. Launch the Firmware Manager at Start->Programs->Philips Firmware Manager on your PC
  2. Connect your GoGear to the computer while pressing & holding the 051104154033_4112.gif key until the Firmware Manager recognize the GoGear and a dialogue box pop up in recover mode.
  3. Click Start to confirm and start recovering the unit to its factory setting
    IMPORTANT: All music & content of your GoGear Player will be erased once the factory setting is restored.
  4. Follow all screen instructions and click Finish at the end to complete the recovery.
  5. The Firmware manager will close automatically once the success message is displayed. Close all opened application and then safely remove your GoGear by clicking on the EJECT HARDWARE icon in your task tray bar. When prompted, "The USB Mass Storage Device can now be safely removed from the system", click OK and unplug your micro jukebomy mp3 freeze i cant do any thing - moz-screenshot-2.pngimg src="/uploads/images/moz-screenshot-2.png" alt="moz-screenshot-2.png" class="h_mi" />

Philips mp3 players froze up and we cant turn it off and none of the buttons are working

Normally when something freezes I think its best to give it some time de-freeze. Secondly see around it if it has a RESET button which I think it should have, then you reset it, that's the main thing that will solve the problem, I have experienced something like that before so I reset it and it continued to work well for me

Wont play song

the first thing you should do is backup and remove all songs through your usb software interface. be sure to have windows 10 installed. also, be sure that you're loading only .mp3 or .wma files to the machine.

This is a link to the manual. you should follow the guidelines laid out in it for the device.
