E260R won't start

I have a E260R. About a month ago it started to act erratic when I turned it on by switching back and forth between music, voice, settings etc.  I finally managed to get it to turn off and now it won’t turn on with the on button; but, when I plug it into my computer it gets recognized and starts charging as it normally would.  I can also access the folders from my computer.  Can anyone give me some advice.  Thank you.  Mike

I see that you have the original firmware release (build) on your device.  You can try updating the firmware manually as described in this Rhapsody Firmware link.    

 

The final release is version 1.0.2.165 for the Rhapsody Sansa.

 

If you run into any glitches after update, or if it does not go smoothly, no worries.   Let me know and I’ll walk you through Recovery Mode.
