Player Recovery
Sometimes, problems still remain even after you reset the player. You need to use the Repair function in the software. Just follow the steps below:
Important: Content stored in the player will be erased after player recovery. We strongly recommend you back up your data before you perform this function.
1. Press and hold the volume plus button (VOL+) and then connect your player to your PC until the Philips Device Manager acknowledges your player and enters the recovery mode. 2. Release the volume-plus button (VOL+) button and then Click on Repair to start the recovery process. 3. Follow the information on the PC screen to disconnect your player when recovery is complete.
I found this on page 55 of my owner's manual. My GoGear MP3 Player was frozen, wasn't being recognized by my computer and this worked for me.
Follow these steps exactly:
1 Reset your player first by inserting a pin or sharp object into the reset hole at the back of the player. 2 Launch Philips Device Manager from Start > Programs > Philips Device Manager. Select the Repair Tab. 3 While pressing the Vol + on your device, connect it to the PC. 4 Confirm Yes when you see the screen , you can release the Vol + now. 5 Choose your device name (SA60xx) in the box. 6 After the repair completes , click OK and continue using your player as usual.
