Muvo slim shutting down/ blank spot on scr

hello,
i have a muvo slim mp3, and i've had it for almost a year. i am very pleased but recently i let the battery run out on a vacation and suddenly after it ran out its been randomly shutting off and there is a blank bar across the screen. i can see the top and bottom part of the screen but not hte middle. A few months back the battery holder borke but the case that came with it held it in. is this part of the problem?
thanx in advance

All you can do with the MuVos is try reloading the firmware, although this sounds like a hardware fault.

  • Ipad won't shut down, blank screen

    Ipad(gen2) won't shut down,  Blank screen and shows working only

    While the iPad is on hold the Home button and Power button at the same time for 10 seconds or so until the iPad powers down and then powers back up.  Sometimes it won't power back up and you have to hold the Power button until it comes back on.
    This resets the iPad and is usually one of the first things to try when troubleshooting issues like this.

  • Muvo Slim upside down disp

    I have a Muvo Slim 52 firmware ..03 that became briefly immersed in salt water. When I turn it on it plays normally but the screen is uniformly blue and nothing can be read. When I disconnect it from the computer and press the menu button the screen is normal in all respects except that it is upside down. It will remain normal indefinitely but if I power it off and try to turn it on I am back to the blue screen. I reloaded the firmware to no avail. I tried to put it in recovery mode, but it won't seem to go into it. Is there any way to fix this?

    It is dry, the battery holds a charge, and as i say, it works. Older models, but not the slim, had an option to turn the display upside down and so I imagine that a salt crystal perhaps is jumpering some area on the circuit board that does this. To that end I took it apart, 2 screws, no problem and lifted out the circuit board and cleaned it with a toothbrush. No help. But there is an area beneath the LCD which appears to be soldered on where i can't get access. Perhaps the short is in there. Next plan is to get some electronics cleaner with a straw attachment and blow out under there unless someone has a better idea.

    Thank you for your reply BDAqua.
    Yes I ran short and the Extended Test. All pass. One of the first things I did is Safe Boot several times I also repaired permissions. Safe boot takes no longer than before the crashes and as long as I stay in safe boot mode it won't crash. What does that mean?I also ran MacJanitor and removed the SCCUZI card Apple put in when I bought the G4 as well as an M-Audio Delta 66 card which I do not use (both) anymore. I also started up on an external firewire drive 10.4.6. It also (crashes) does the same thing.
    I was hoping somebody understands the crash report I enclosed? Isn't that suppose to say what went wrong?
    Thank you again for your input BDAqua

  • When asking to view statements in online bills--firefox continuously runs a blank tab that is added to my downloads and I cannot stop it without shutting down the computer?

    I use Firefox for all our online bill statements. When I go to my Charter One bank account and press view e-statements, firefox does not view these statements, it has started to show pages that are blank and the tab is say charterone.com....dafault/???????(not
    sure what is after default) After shutting down and restarting, my downloads are loaded with these blank pages that I've been deleting--hundreds of these. How do I stop this from happening every time I want to view my account statements?

  • Right after starting up display goes blank and shuts down?

    Right after starting up display goes blank and shuts down?
    Any ideas I can't get it started. Thought I would ask for help before making a genius appt.

    Thanks that was very helpful info. I was able to boot into the recovery disk partition and run some basic HD tests and it found no issues.  Then I booted into the hardware test and it found no issues. After these tests it still failed to boot into Mavericks. I'm guessing its a software issue and I can not find the original computer disk. I have a time machine backup from 2 months ago and I could use the disk utility on the recovery sector to launch it but I want to wait and see if I can boot from a software DVD first. If I can repair the current OS that is my best option.
    Thanks.

  • When launching Firefox, I always get a message that my previous session cannot load, even though I always go to a blank page before shutting down the program.

    When I open the Firefox browser, it tries to reload the last page/tab I was on before shutting down the program the last time. My home page is a blank page, and I always go to that before shutting down.

    I have had exactly this problem - Firefox - version 11, but when I updated all my plug-ins (go to Customize Firefox - about halfway down - '''''Check your plugins''''') and restarted Firefox the problem vanished. Hope this helps as this seems to be a fairly large issue.

  • Photoshop Elements 9 shutting down when using the Spot Healing Brush

    Hello! I recently downloaded and
    installed the PSE 9 on my PC. Obviously I wanted to check out it's possibil
    ities and especially the Spot Healing Brush. The program seems to work fine until I want to use the Spot Healing Brush
    As soon as I try to apply something to a picture, I get the message something is wrong with "photoshopeditor.exe" and needs to shut down the program.
    That's really annoying and hopefully someone may have the answer and solution why it does this. I run the program on Windows XP (SP3).
    I really appreciate your help. Best regards, CharlesHHH.

  • Muvo TX FM allways shut down after Firmware Upd

    After the Upgrade to newest Firmware my Player shuts down after 3-4 sec MP3-Playing! FM works... can anyone help me please?Message Edited by Bandit600 on 07-27-2006 02:4 PM

    Like others I've been hit with the same audio and device shutoff issues after upgrading to the latest version of the Muvo TX FM software (.22.03).
    What a fricking pain!
    After reading a lot of the boards and stuff I finally was able to revert to .9.0, but not before trying everything under the sun.
    Starting with a player that had nothing on it I did the following:
    - reinstalled .22.03 so I had something that my PC could copy files on to, etc...
    - using Windows Explorer, formatted the device to FAT, instead of FAT32
    - Attached device in Recovery mode (holding play button long enough while connecting to USB port, that the device came up listed as in recovery in the device manager dialog.
    - launched .9.0 install (MuVoTXFM_PCFW_LF__9_0.exe)
    This time I didn't semaphore timeout and it got past allocating tables and completed the install. My tests of the device seem to indicate things are working again.
    Hope these steps help others!

  • How do I restore my IPod? I shut down in middle of updating, now it's a BLANK white screen??

    iPod 4th gen was manually shut down (holding both buttons down to shut off...) while it was in middle of updating to ios 6, and now every time I turn bk on, it's a blank white screen! Looks like iPod has been wiped out! Please tell me how to fix this? I hooked to Mac, and still blank screen!!!

    Like I said in your previous post:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Purchased the Sony Tablet in June 2012, started to shut down during regular use (blank screen, swirl

    I am a long time Sony customer… mostly TVs and other entertainment items.
    Purchased the Sony Tablet in June 2012, started to shut down during regular use (blank screen, swirly lights comes on, and soft reset required) in September 2012.
    December 2012, issue started to take place more frequent (to the point it was too annoying).
    Sent the tablet in for repair before X-Mas and just got it back from the TX repair center yesterday (1/14/13).
    They replaced the motherboard.
    1/15/13, 11:49AM, the same issue happened.
    I am asked to mail it in again, so they can fix the issue.
    I like Sony products, but this is something new for me.
    I like to know if this is common for the tablet, please share story.
    My concerns are:
    They replaced the motherboard (that is pretty much the core of the tablet!)
    What do I do when my warranty expires in June 2013 and the issue is still there?

    I and many others have the same issue. You can an find some links to reported issues in my thread.
    Sony has yet to acknowledge the issue and define whether it is software or hardware based. This lack of communication is very disheartening.

  • Equium P200D-139D shutting down for no reason - screen just go blank

    How do ppl?
    New to the forum and need some help or if anyone else has had this trouble maybe they could help?
    My P200D-139D suddenly stops working. Screen go's blank and the computer becomes totally un-responsive and the only way of turning or back on is by taking the battery out and putting it back in.
    It can happen after 1 min or 4 hours, no real pattern to it at all.
    Any help would be very appreciated,
    Thanks, Staunchie.

    Hi
    You mean the notebook shuts down automatically (power off) or only the screen becomes blank?
    If the notebook would power off automatically then this would mean that the internal temperature has increased to a higher level and therefore the notebook would powers off.
    In such cases its advisable to clean the ventilators.
    But its really strange if only the display would turn off.
    Ive no general solution for that but you should check if your BIOS and graphic card driver is up to date. If not then an update would be strongly recommended.
    Check it out!

  • My  Macbook Air wakes up with a blank screen. Why do I have to shut down and start up to wake it up?

    I use Mountain Lion on a macbook Air. When it goes to sleep  it wakes up with a blank screen, I have to shut down and start up again to wake it up. Can anyone help?

    I had a similar thing on an old MacBook Pro where if I closed the lid, then reopened it before the sleep cycle took over, it would have a blank screen. I had to close the lid until the power light pulsed, then it would wake normally.
    Any similarities?

    Hi Mend
    I have 2 clients with the exact same problem. Since the iOS update 8.0 their mail apps launch run for a while then kick off to a black blank screen and crashes the mail app, this brings them back to their desktop.
    I have done everything from factory restores to changing their mail account types from IMAP/POP/Exchange MAPI this does not solve the problem. We have taken it in to our nearest iStore and they have stated that nothing can be done and that we should hope that the next iOS update fixes the issue. I believe its an OS bug crashing the iOS mail app. I hope APPLE team look into this as if there is no fix on the next update i am going to recommend my clients revert to an older version of iOS and you know what an ordeal that is and what all that requires.
    I will keep you posted on my findings but in the meantime i don't think anything can be done.
