Haven't had any problems with my Cobra. Has some great features not found on others. I switch between truck and car because we have parkways around NY which prohibit my vehicle, but then the truck routes are only over major roads so unless you know the area you go well out of the way. I was using garmin for cars and got forced onto parkways and nearly ticketed. Mostly good things to say about the 6000.

Mine has a key that you use to unlock it. You have to turn it more than halfway around, I think. It's a bit tricky at first. Hope you've figured it out!

Did you use blank scan? Use that it automatically search the right transponder. Good luck!Victor

The only reason it would get "stuck" would be because you lost (can't find your key). They send two keys (by the way). That's the idea - it's "stuck" until you (the owner) unlocks it.

you have to reset it . in the booklet it tells the button to push to reset it. i did mine ,but forgot how i did it.

You may need to press the button. I thought mine was dead too. But it only appeared to be. Once you press it to your skin it goes on.

Call TomTom customer service & ask them to activate/update your Lifetime Map service. Then connect your GPS to your computer

Mine started to freeze and then kept on. At first I was able to hard reset, that stopped working then I tried I hit the outside reset (Pinhole button on the side), it didn't work. I only had it for two weeks. Snowy screen constantly. So I returned it.

Lookup reset then try that. Holding on off and volume button sametime. Good luck.

Maybe you need only to wait until it finds your location? Or maybe it is having trouble getting a signal? I haven't used the GPS myself. I tried a few online searches to find instructions, but really didn't find anything useful. Ground EFX does have its own website though, where you can speak to a representative or ask questions. (Groundefx.com) I hope you find your answers soon so that there would be no problems making an exchange if it is defective. Good luck. I will be back to give a better answer if I can find one.

I'm not sure, but it would freeze up every time you try to take any action to search, rewind, view, or anything.

I can only think that you must have pressed the track mode button before the OK button, as this action would make Spot go back to track after sending out the OK message. If you did not press the "Track" button previously, it should not go to track at all. You may have a hardware problem. Turn it off, pull the batteries, try to start it up again and hopefully it will reset. If not, I would suggest talking to Spot via email.

At this moment I am pulling data off an external USB drive that appeared to be totally dead. Clack, click, whiirrrrrrrr and never came online.I froze it. Not kidding:http://www.emergingtechs.com/posts/put-your-hard-drive-in-the-freezer-to-recover-data/Mine works for about 1/2hr until the drive warms up again, then back into the freezer. Given this scenario it makes sense to know what is critical, get it first, and get the non-essential stuff later. All my important stuff is already recovered and now I'm copying over 40GB of "nice to have" stuff.As soon as this process is over I'm going to improve my backup scenario!

If an accident just happening in front of you, and you would like the file to be locked, just activate g sensor like William said ( say adjust the mirror a bit so the machine detects movement ) , then that specific file would be locked and after that locked file, it will still keep on recording hope this helpsthanks Marie

You hold it on the sensor. If it gives you an error you just leave it there and it will scan again.
