The free 100 books are missing from my aluratek
If you are referring to a reset all or reset all settings, it could be probably Yes. For it restores the device to factory settings and erases all data stored on it.
Just be free to install new ebooks on your device, and be sure not to reset it again unless it is needed to.
Why does it keep turning itself off
Most rechargable devices today have an autmatic shutoff after a pecified period of non use... usually 5-10 minutes
So if you are reading and just put it down and go make a cup of tea it's likely it'll be off when you return
How do I adjust the brightness on my ereader? It's
Hello

Bottom right of the screen = Contrast bar

Toggle between Brightness setting mode and Contrast setting mode
Press OK button when done
Will not turn off. Also If I understood the
this sounds like it is stuck..take a look at if it has a reset button ..it will be a hole like button (on the back side near the battery lid ..in the left )in which you have to insert either the touch screen pen ..or another sharp object ...Do it and keep it pressed for 5 seconds and after that release it ..This will make it functional again ..
After restart ..make a screen calibration from the feature for it in the main menu ..
(if it do not appears to have a reset button ...just remove the battery and put it back )
About the SD card ..look into the menu cause you may just looked into its internal memory ...Look for storage ..and than memory card ..enable it if it has a feature for that ..or ..look if it has in the media area separate locations for the internal memory and SD card ..
If it has a Sd card inserted that it has to have a lid for the slot where is inserted (at the bottom near the usb cable)...and see if there is a 2G SD card or not..

Aluratek AHDU350 worked great for about 2 years.
Sometimes you can remove the hard drive from the case and connect it to your computer. If it works, the interface/case it came in is dead. If it doesn't work, you may be able to have the data extracted by a specialist, but this is very expensive.
If the drive is still under warranty, you may want to decide if the data on the drive is worth opening the drive case and voiding your warranty.
Warranty usually means they replace, not repair the unit,
Since I bought this Dvd
Your new unit needs what's called "firmware" which is very close to BIOS for the main computer board. Since you have not stated the exact model #, it's hard to lead to to exactly where you need to be to get the download. I'll try my best.
These people don't want outsiders to help their purchasers so, go to the link below and start a support cycle which will probably end in good times for your DVD burner if you're patient, inquisitive and friendly.

Cant download ebooks on Aluratek. Could before.
I don't think it's worth contacting Adobe or other manufacturers, it's related to the External Hard disk, not with the adobe or ebooks. Try copy paste some other files like songs, mp3 etc..etc.. I guess they should show the same message.
In most cases it's caused by Virus and spyware so you need to run a full system scan using an update antivirus (or with several antiviruses). I would recommend Formatting, but you have to transfer all the files saved on the Hard disk to your computer and format it, otherwise you'll loose everything saved on it.
Let me give some hints, First of all, try it on another computer, try transferring files from the other computer to the hard disk and see if it's working or not, I guess, it should work fine, if so, transfer/copy all the files to the computer and format it. While you are transferring this, run a full system scan on your computer.
After it's formatted, restore all the files that has been transferred to the other computer. It should work properly by now.
This should be with all the files, not with the e-books alone.
Let me know if you need further help.
Thanks for using FixYa.
Charging
You don't need to charge is. The light turns green when in use - either to read or write something on it.
My Aluratek fell and crashed
A fall to the floor is really serious. There is probably more damage than just the hard drive. A fall to a hard surface is like a bomb going off for a hard drive...
