Help! Can't get to library Screen

Hi all,

My mum has a cybook gen 3 which she has only had for a couple of weeks. She left it for a bit today and it turned itself off. She went to turn it back on again and she gets the first screen fine. Gets the second screen fine ( the one where it looks like it is loading up the library) but it keeps flickering after that. It is still turns the loading page over and over. We have reset it quite a few times but this continues to happen. We have even plugged it in to charge it thinking it is freezing cos it is low on battery but still no luck. Any ideas?

Many thanks!

I've had the same problem a few times, caused by the power button getting stuck in the "pressed" position... not sure if it is the same as yours tho

My Cybook just arrived today.

Charged it for what felt an age, loaded the previously bought mobipocket books, and went off to do other things.

Came back and turned it on. Oh dear, it jammed, and would not turn off or go beyond page 1. I presume impatience was the cause in my case and it went stubborn on me to teach me manners.

So I tried Julia's reset button idea and we're back in business.

Thanks, Julia.
