Topic: Problem with Microtracker - screen frozen, please help

[NJFunk]

I have a big problem with the Microtracker.  It is stuck on and the screen is frozen.  None of the buttons work, including the power button, and the computer doesn't recognize it if I plug in the USB.  Has this happened to anyone else?  Is this a known bug (I know I could try to read the 50000 messages here about the MT, but I'd rather have someone answer, if possible).  I suppose the batteries will run out eventually, but I'd rather not have to try to sove that this way.

Thanks.

Many devices have a recessed re-set button.  The MT does not, but you may achieve the same results by holding down the power button for ~10 sec or so.  Just keep holding it down and it'll eventually re-set.

Thanks.  It took at least 30 seconds but it did shut down.  I'm just not that patient...
