Hello I will try to help you. If the pen was working up until the batteries died then the problem logically would be solved by putting in new batteries. That said, remove the "new" batteries and install them in another device to be sure that they are good. Some new batteries die in the package before being used.

Then make sure you are putting the batteries in correctly, pay attention to the + and -.

Finally, you can clean the ends of the battery chamber by using a pencil eraser and rubbing it on the metal contacts.

Let me know if one of these things fixes your problem as I have additional ideas.

Testimonial: "The problem was with the country settings on the audio - it seems that the book I had was from the UK and not US. Thank you for your help."

I am having the same problem, contacted Tag (who is only there during work hours which really does not help) they supplied me with an alt connect file. That did not work either. Have you found a solution yet?
