I have owned (and loved) my fuse for almost 2 years now but a couple of months ago I plugged it in to my laptop to add some audiobooks and the laptop couldn’t “see” it.
The fuse was charging up Ok as soon as I connected it, but Audible Manager programme said no player was connected, it doesn’t show up in my computer or the device manager or anywhere!
I have tried using the MSC mode, the MTP mode and the autodetect mode - but nothing works. I have tried my own cable. my husbands cable and a brand new cable - still nothing! I have tried 4 different computers and laptops, but it is the same on every one, the Fuze will charge but is not visible as a device (and yes I have looked for hidden devices)
I’ve tried connecting it to the firmware updater but the updater keeps telling me to connect my device. I feel as if I am going round in circles.
I’ve tried turning the on/off switch to lock (orange dot showing) and holding downd the left arrow key but it makes no difference.
The only thing I haven’t done, and dare not do is to reformat it. I don’t want to do this because right now I at least have 6 GB of audiobooks and a few music files on there, and as I can recharge it without a problem I can at least still listen to the audio books I have, if I reformat and it doesn’t work I will have no way of getting my audio books and music back onto the player.
I have seen various posts when doing a google search that tell me I am not the only person to have had this happen, but none of the posts carries a solution.
PLEASE can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance
