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.

A few months back the battery holder borke but the case that came with it held it in. is this part of the problem?

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

    Reload the firmware. If you don't know how to do that, search the forum for information.

  • MuVo Slim issue - randomly playing tracks

    I recently bought a MuVo Slim 256MB MP3 player and have uploaded an assortment of tracks (5) from various artists, albums, etc. I'd like the player to randomly select from all of the tracks, which are not stored in separate folders.
    This feature works, that is, it randomly selects from the 5 tracks (i.e., starts at 26, 49, , 7, 0, 24, 28, , etc.).
    But, when the unit is turned off (holding down the play/pause button) and then back on, the unit will start the music playing at the last track played (say , for example...which is perfect), but then it will jump back to the first randomly selected track 26 and will continue in the previous order (i.e., 26, 49, , 7, etc.). As a result, most tracks are never actually heard because the list always starts back at the begining. Very frustrating.
    I've tried the different random options, but nothing seems to get the unit to deviate from it's defined random list.

    Jason,
    Thanks. I just downloaded the latest firmware for my MuVo Slim (..03 -- previous version was .02.0) and it has corrected the problem! Perfect!

  • Why my iPhone 5S taking pictures upside down?

    I have iOS 8.1 installed in my iPhone. While taking the picture sometimes it displays the camera screen in upside down direction and pictures taken also in upside down direction but sometimes it works fine.
    Also I have encountered that while taking first picture flash sound doesn't come out (Ensured that iPhone is not on silent mode), for the rest of the pictures, it works fine. Could anyone please help me in this.

    Have you tried soft reseting it. Holding the power and home screen buttons. For about 10 seconds. If not the next thing I would do is  reset all settings.: Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings.  If that still does not work. Restoring to factory with iTunes and  not loading a backup. Would be the next testing step. If still does not work. Then it would be something apple would need to fix for you. (1-800-MY-APPLE)

  • Lightroom Imports Photos Upside Down

    I just started using Lightroom to import my photos directly from my camera. It worked fine for the first few times, but now it is reading all of my photos upside-down.
    XP's Camera Wizard correctly reads the orientation from the camera, so I think this is something specific in Lightroom. I've checked the settings, but didn't see anything about orientation.
    Thanks...

    Hi Same thing here. Also cant preview raw files at import. hoping a card reader will fix both problems.cheers

  • Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?

    Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?
    On another note, the iPhone tells me that it's ''busy'' when opening a photo on the computer.
    (I tried restarting my PC, connecting via another USB port, importing using PhotoStream, etc...)

    Are you using the front or rear camera? When you say they are low quality, are you referring to file/pixel size, or how the picture looks? As far as upside down, how are you holding the phone? Older versions of Windows have issues reading the Metadata from the pictures and will not display the same.

  • When I take a picture with my IPhone and send it to my home computer, why do the pictures turn sideways or upside down (it's an HP windows computer)

    When I take a picture with my IPhone and send it to my home computer (HP Windows) why does the picture turn out sideways or upside down?

    OK, here's the explanation.  When you take a picture, the iPhone knows what orientation it is in (portrait, landscape, etc.) and adds that information to the picture's EXIF data so it knows which side is up.  Apple devices can decode this information and show the picture right side up when it is viewed.  However, Windows computers cannot do this.  They are not capable of decoding the orientation information added by the iPhone, so they are displayed in a default orientation (which may not be right side up).
    This only happens on Windows machines, and unfortunately there is nothing you can do about it, except use the rotation buttons in Windows picture view to orient the photo correctly.

  • Need help - Error while updating the firmware of Muvo Slim using the recovery t

    Hi ,
    While I am trying to update my Muvo slim firmware using the recovery tool it throwd up an error. And from then onwards if I am trying to power it up it won't.
    If I again try to update the firmware, it throws up the error that "Unable to Write to Device: Device Time out".
    I am afraid that my Muvo slim got bricked. Can you please help me in recovering the same.
    PS: My PC OS is Windows XP.
    Thank & Regards
    ksraghava?

    On my XP system, the last time I wanted to reload the firmware, I had to remove all of my Creative software programs,?and then revert my Windows Media Player back to 0 and then use The Recovery Tool. It is a bit of a pain, but does seem to work when you are getting errors with the firmware download.
    luvmyrescuedogs
    Almost forgot. Make sure your player is fully charged or has a fresh battery before starting any firmware download.

  • Photos taken from iPhone appears upside down in windows explorer

    Photos taken from my iPhone appears upside down in windows explorer....

    Hi The problem I think ou are experiencing is because of the way you turn the phone to take pics. With the phone vertical (home button at the bottom) the pics you take will appear the right way up in all applications, the problem will occur when you hold the phone horizontally. If you hold the phone with the home button to the right the pics you take will appear the right way up in all applications, if you hold the phone with the home button to the left the pics will appear the right way up in the camera roll and some other apps that understand the iphone camera rotation but in other apps (iphoto and windows explorer are two) these photos will appear upside down.
    Hope this helps

  • Duplex Printing, front on back and upside down...

    Dear Bob,
    I have a problem with a LaserJet CM2320 MFP fxi, running Windows XP SP3.
    When printing a single page it is ok.
    When printing a (word)-file with e.g. 4 pages, the first page is printed on the backside and the second page on the front, and both are also upside down... Putting the paper the other way around in the printer doesn't solve the problem, because the single-page-print will be messed-up...
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Kind regards,
    Titus

  • Printing upside down

    Hi guys.  I've got an HP LaserJet 600 M603.  It has started printing pages with the data upside down.  Instead of picking the page up from the tray after printing, and the start of the page being at the top, it's placing the start of the page and information at the bottom, upside-down.
    When I do a factory reset, it will correct the issue for a time, but it then reverts back within an hour or so.
    I researched and found some information regarding a firmware upgrade for a different model printer that stated is was the PJL Density command that was causing the data on the page to print upside-down and it was the fix for it.
    Not sure if an upgrade to the firmware is what I need, nor do I know how to peform this.  Any advice?

    If you have HP software in your Applications folder that was not specifically meant for 10.7 (Lion), uninstall the software using the 'scrubber' option:
    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
    Click on Continue
    Highlight your device on the left pane
    Press and hold Control + Alt + Cmd keys on the keyboard simultaneously while you click on Uninstall <<<< This IS the Scrubber Option, there is no button labeled "Scrubber"
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click Continue and let it finish
    Restart your Mac
    Download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
    Now reset the printing system:
    - Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
    - Right (control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    - Select the plus sign to re-add it. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
