Add us to the Mix Stick UNHAPPY Posse! Purchased a Pirates one for the stepdaughter, and after a few months, it just died. I reset it over and over. It blinks, orange, green, red with no apparent pattern. Other than that, nothing else happens. The manufacturer, Digital Blue, has NOTHING on their website for help, support , troubleshooting this TERRIBLE product. I should have just bought her a real low-level mp3 player. My son has my daughter’s 4 yr old one, and it still works like a charm!
DO NOT BUY THIS MIX JUNK, EVER!!!

Hello all!

my daughter just received a disney mix stick as a present. when plugged into the computer it automatically detects the device and the green/red light comes on, so I assume it is charging. However, after many hours (and days, I keep trying and trying….) once off from the computer the stick will not turn on. Any suggestions? Oh, and there is no reset button on this one (guess it’s an old model).

Thank you for your help!

OLi If you read all the previous comments (again) you will note the different things said about how to get your unit charged and playing. If you “loaded songs onto it” you must have connected it to the computer, or put an SD card into it, I know not which. In the first case, you’d have been connected to the computer with the mix stick, so you should have noted the color of the light. In all cases, the unit will have a green light when it is on and can be played. Turn it on, hit the play button. Headphones will let you know if there is sound, or not, if they are in working order.

My daughter doesn’t have the mix stick in use at all anymore, it’s been retired for a long, long time, her one replacement still going strong, Sansa Fuze. Much more useful too.

I bought this for my little 4 yr old as a Christmas gift,thank god I only paid $6 for it from National Liquidators! Because if I would’ve paid more for it I would’ve been pissed if i had this situation happening to me!
I loaded songs into it, but I can’t tell if its charged… any help?

I bought the mixstick for my daughter 2 years ago. We’ve NEVER had a problem with it. Keep in mind I purchased this for a 3 y/o, she is now 5. Her taste in music has changed so I told her I’d update the music on it for her. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that I cannot get my computer to recognize it now. It will charge, but I can not update the music. Her mix stick is one of the long ones without a display, there is no reset button and Vista found the drivers for it, but I cannot find the installation hardware or instructions. If anyone knows where to find replacements of these maybe it will resolve my situation. At this point I’m not willing to purchase another one of these or any other mp3 player for a 5 y/o. I got a really good deal on hers (I paid less than $20 for it because it was mismarked on a shelf) and I don’t think she’s responsible for a more expensive item. If anyone can help me that would be great!
