Reader has frozen after adding SDHC card with music on!!!

AFK_Matrix · 02-05-2010, 07:49 PM

Well I got a 4GB SDHC card for my PRS 505 today so I have loaded it up with about 300 songs for my reader. I put the card in and it loaded all the songs and showed them in the Audio bit. I then clicked on Audio and it has the first 10 songs but now the reader has frozen, I can't even turn it off!!! Should I just leave it?? If it won't turn off what do i do?

According to the Sony website, the PRS505 does support the SDHC cards so theres no problem there.
Have you tried pressing the reset button on the back for a few seconds then switching it back on.
If this doesn't work you may have to try the hard reset option but that should be a last resort. I can't remember the key sequence for this of the top of my head but I think it wipes all your current settings.

Well I did a reset by using the reset button on the back. It now seems to be working fine so hopefully it was a one off.
