Try a soft reset by holding the play/pause and the volume up button for a couple of seconds.

I bet if you listen closely, you can hear the hard drive clicking. If you leave it sit there long enough, it might unjam itself, as mine JUST did. I'm trying to figure out how to open mine so I can fix it if it happens again, as the stylus is probably just stuck. Once you do get it unjammed, you should see "Start Device Manager" on the screen. Do it, and do a repair.

There is a part inside of the hard drive that holds the stylus(the thing thats slides along the disk and reads the data) that is hot clued on.. After a while the glue will fail and it will move and jam everything up.. If you take the whole thing apart and reglue it you should be able to fix your problem. Be careful though as you will be inside of the hard drive and the hard disk will be exposed.

when this unit gets stuck on screen usually caused by not safely removing hardware from computer. in that mode you press power and vol + button at same time for a couple seconds and will reset. sofware available through philips website: http://www.p4c.philips.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/cpindex.pl?ctn=HDD060/17&slg=AEN&searchtxt=HDD0

Music doesnt show up on mp3 player library, but it does on the computer

Make sure you back up all songs on the GoGear before attempting this solution.

1) Back up all files on the GoGear
2) Open up Philips Device Manager (Start --> All Programs --> Philips)
3) Click on the Repair Tab, and look for a msg that says connect the player while holding the volume + button
4) Disconnect the GoGear from the computer and turn the GoGear off - hold in the volume + button and continue to hold it as you reconnect the GoGear to the computer; after holding the volume + button for up to 20 or 30 seconds, a window will open up saying that your device is being repaired (now you can let go of the volume + button); after the repair is successfully complete, your GoGear will be good as new

Now you can do the firmware upgrade that will prevent this problem from occuring in the future. Open up Philips Device Manager and click the Update tab. This problem was caused because most GoGear's were designed for Windows XP with Media Player 10 (which is no longer the latest standard).
