No Power It isn't the receptor end - we had that replaced even though the guy said it was fine and solid. We bought a new cord too, still nothing. Comp Guy suggested it was the mother board. . .but when we put in a fresh battery, it works beautifully. So, obviously it ain't the motherboard. But it gets no power. . .ever. Batteries won't charge, the plug won't even light up the computer. any ideas? This is my WORK computer (I'm a digital freelance artist) and I am going nuts b/c without it I can't work on site. Ideas? Voodoo spells? Something?

I bought a Bamboo Splash a while back, and it had been working fine up until today. I sometimes unplug my tablet and use the cord to charge my phone. Today when i disconnected my phone and put the cord...

Unplugging the tablet would not hurt it in anyway. A power surge can cause such a problem though. Typically the problem you are describing is caused by bad flash memory which is what all tablets use and run on Like a....Example: A Solid State Drive "SSD"

Samsung R480 Will not charge or turn on but indicator lights flash or stay on.

Swap out the ram one at a time testing to see if you can power up, making sure there is one in the memory slot at all times, if this works the piece in your hand is defective, no difference! the motherboard has major issues.

Earlier my laptop shut down with no warning even though the charger was all connected and plugged in. now even though the charger is plugged in everytime i try to turn it back on the needs to be charged...

This could be caused by several things, but try the obvious first. I just bought a brand new power supply, and in less than a week the customer called and said it stopped working. I suggested she take the cord from the old charger and try it - it worked - the brand new cord lasted less than a week. The other thing that could cause this is a bad connection on the end of the power supply, going into the computer. It could even be a bad power supply.The last thing I can think of is a bad battery that won't hold a charge.

No Sound from JBL On-Stage 400

The power supply consists of two parts: the AC cord with a two-prong connector on one end and a double barrel plastic connector; and the large rectangular power supply which has a dual prong receptor on the side and a long cable which plugs into the JBL unit.

In my case, I had plugged the double barrel plastic connector into the dual prong receptor backwards. Even though I was getting full power to the unit, this somehow caused the speakers to become inoperative.

Of course, I would offer a recommendation to JBL that their power supplies are made to be "dummy proof" so this does not happen to others as well.
