Update,
Well, it looks like my booksense and the battery spending a night apart did
the trick. *Smile,* see, I was too tired to deal with it last night, so I
removed the battery and put the booksense and separate battery inside the
pouch. Thinking I'd work on it today.
Well, yippy! Putting the 2 pieces back together just now, seemed to fix
everything. There was a chime sound, then Kate began speaking. This all
signaled a reset of some sort for me, because I have Paul as my default voice.
Raul, thanks for the directions, I need to jot those down somewhere.
Carly, thanks for the encouragement, one of these days I'll try the hard
reset. *smile*
Thank goodness all is working now!

Still loving her Booksense!

Hey Traci,
The pin hole reset is really easy. I used a tooth pick, all you have to do
is stick the toothpick in there until you feel it stop, take it out a second
later. Then you can wait probably 45 seconds or so and you'll here or should
hear the BookSense power noise again and it should turn back on. I was scared
of the reset hole because I'm always afraid I'm gonna blow things up but it was
no big deal, lol. Let me know if this works.

Subject: [GW-Booksense] Won't shut off mistery
Ok y'all, the booksense turning on by itself the other weekend was weird
enough, but now I'm unable to shut mine off.
I was listening to a nls book last night, and paused it for a minute.
When I resumed, I listened for a minute more, then was ready to turn off. The
booksense would not turn off.
I held down the play button like usual, and nothing happened. Well,
except for silence. When I held it down again, my book started playing.
I decided to exit out of the book, to see if that would help. Nope, same
result. So, I left the daisy folder to see if that would do anything. Nope.
At this point, sound like I should try the battery removal. Well, bad
news bears, still not working correctly.
My next step will be that paperclip reset. I'll wait for someone to help
out, I'm a chicken!
If that doesn't do it, I may need to contact GW to get a reminder on how
to reinstall the firmware. I remember last time, it was quite the finger
acrobatics. *smile*
