Hi Brian, I think I might be able to help you, but I have a few questions to ask first: - When your BS2 is placed on its docking station, while your computer is switched on and the USB cable is attached, what colour is the LED on the docking station? And is that light fixed, or winking every second?
- What brand of SD card are you using, and what size?
- Is your BS2 shown in the dropdown toolbar at the top of the screen while trying to copy music on BeoPlayer - in either N.Music or PC CD mode?
- What kind of files are you trying to copy onto your BS2 - WMA, MP3, MP4 etc?
- When did you purchase your BS2, and was it from a B&O dealer?
- Have you ever been able to transfer music onto one of your SD cards via BeoPlayer and have it working on your BS2?
That should do for now! Hopefully your answers will help me see where your problem is.

Hi Peter, When placing the BeoSound 2 on my docking station (without phones connected) and is plugged into my laptop I get an amber light followed by one beep then two beeps then a flash of amber again with indicates it is trying to reset itself. This continues until BeoSound 2 is removed from the docking station. Plug phones in, in play mode and replace on docking station then it is recognised. The brand of cards am using are all genuine Sandisk (128MB, 2 x 256MB and 1GB). When BeoPlayer is up and running all appears normal, copies music (in wma format) yet cannot use BeoPlayer to reformat any disks. Also, if disks are empty then "config/setup" mode shows "BeoSound 2" as the Portable Device yet when disks have music in them it indicates that now is a portable drive. My BeoSound 2 was purchased in 2003 from the B&O dealer in Chichester. Up until about 4 weeks ago everything worked as normal, had no problems, all disks functioned normally as did the BeoSound 2! Nothing has been altered, change, configured. Just one day placed it on the docking station for a recharged and noticed the amber light flash, the beeps were heard then the amber light flashed again. Hope this info helps, Cheers (Hic), Brian

Hi Brian, I would suggest to put your BS2 on the docking station again. When you've done this and the amber light is showing on the docking station, hold down the GO button for a few seconds. This is usually done to inform the BS2 whether you just want to charge it, or whether you want to charge it and recieve music files from a PC via USB. Also try resetting your BS2 by taking it off the charger, holding the Volume Up and Volume Down button together. The hold down the GO button for a few seconds.

The BS2 is perfect as I have proven that the docking station is not at fault. Once i have received your BS2 and can determine whether my cards are faulty (which am sure it cannot be, in fact one 1GB was recently replaced by SanDisk) or that it is my own BS2. Again, many thanks for all your valuable help, am grateful for all. Cheers (Hic), Brian

Hi Peter, Your BS2 arrived on Saturday, many thanks. Placed it onto the docking station with your SD card in it, no problems, exchanged your card for one of mine, again no problems with your BS2. Inserted your card into my BS2 and, well i guess you know what happened So, I've now counted out the docking station and my cardsas the problem so I guess it's a trip to B&O Chichester and they can send my BS2 to their Tech Dept. I know it is a bit of a cheek considering your kindness and help, would you mind if I kept your BS2 for a week or so while mine goes to B&O's Tech Dept? If not, is not a problem and would send back via SD. Again, many thanks for all your help, Brian
