Will not record and lost all other recordings

If it's your cable box DVR, you need to call your cable provider to reset your cable box.

the songs may not be the proper format for your media player. try downloading media converter. there are many free ones online that you can find and once you convert the files try putting them back onto your media player.
hopes this helps!!

Hi jollycay there is something else you can look at, youwant to press the Menu button and then press the numbers 6-1-3. It will takeyou to System Info 1, you will need to see if field F is green and if so I do apologizefor the loss of the recordings due to we have no way of recovering them. If thebox is not green please call in so we can take further action.

CHoose the menu or Dial the menu to someking MOVIE ICON usually like a box with 2 circle above it (represent the movie recorder icon). Then press the shutter to record and press it again to stop. Just make sure your camera's memory (either internal or external) is enough. For other setting like resolution and frame per second (FPS) you may change it on the Menu. The bigger number on FPS meaning the video become more smooth but it take a lot of memory.

Hi and welcome to Fixyah,

if your IDVDR do not allowed you to input any minutes, You need to go back to step number 1 and then click on the pull down arrow and then look and choose Dazzle DVC 100 then go back to step number 4 and then go ahead and click on small circle and put the valid time to record.

to start recording pres menu button or m to pause press pause to stop hold down Menu button

First things first: DO NOT take any more videos or audio with the recorder that you want to recover files from in case you may quite possibly ruin your chances of voice memo file recovery.

Then connect your device to a PC, and have a try of Photo Recovery (also recover audio, voice memos, video files etc), a data recovery program which is good at recovering media files lost. If you are Mac OS X users, turn to Data Recovery for Mac.

Lastly, I hope you good luck. Again you should remember - the more you use your recorder, the less likely you may be able to recover the deleted files back! So STOP using the device ASAP. Regards

To select your message to erase depress REC/STOP button. Then "scroll" thru recordings by using the "rocker" style switch on the upper right side of recorder labeled INDEX. When you have the recording on the LCD display you wish to erase, depress the ERASE button for more than a second and release when the display starts blinking "ERASE" - then depress the ERASE button again and the recording will be erased. Do the same for each numbered recording to fully erase all recordings.

My record lock is turn off, but every time I press the record stop to stop record it takes me to the password screen where I must enter a password before I can stop the recording....This piece of xxxxx is stink. I hate my Samsung SHR-1040...I cant even talk to Samsung about it.....When I call, they transfer me to India and they dont even know what a DVR is......I told them DVR 10 times, but they keep repeating to me " VCR"

If you press the play button while in FM mode it will start to record then press stop to stop.
