the patches I just bought are not sticking well from first application to client and they are most definitely not reusable.What can I do?

I have had the same experience. They are cheaply made, I will not order them again.

Make sure your client's skin is clean, dry and not oily (washing also helps to remove any skin lotions, etc. that your client may have applied). After use, it may help to gently clean the contact side only with cold water to remove any residue from the last usage.

I too initially had problems with them sticking but I found if you apply pressure and heat for several minutes (2-3 minutes) when you put it on it stays much better. When put them on press the palm of your hand on the electrode - that gives it both pressure and warmth and you will probably need to do that each time you put on the electrode. They still don't stick as well as other I've had but these will do until I need them again. Don't use alcohol or anything else on them but you can use a little warm water on them when you reapply them and that might help as well.

Mine were sticky at first. You HAVE to clean skin with alcohol before applying or they won't stick for very long. If yours are not sticking even after cleaning skin, then something's wrong with them. Return if you can or exchange. There a decent product esp. for price.

If they are not working after first use I would return them. And they definitely should be reusable.

Have you made sure that there are no creams or lotions on you? Also I always put back on the plastic pieces

I found out when they don't stick very well, I put them under warm water and that's pretty much works, also I do use mine over a few times.

Clean the area before you put the sticker on on. It could be that the area is greasy or dirty. If that doesnt work, try some other tapes that they offer. mine works just fine. I used it on a very glossy computer case, snd it still there. Try put it on good area where youre not gonna touch over and over again. Good luck.

I also have the same problem. Did you ever find the download for the original software?

You shouldn't because the patch may come off, then you would have to immediately replace it. This will make you have to double the amount you purchase. You can apply the patch after you swim or shower safely and worry less about it becoming dislodged or loosened. RN

Did you try the patch kit? In the instructions it also says you can use duct tape for a temporary fix.

When new I have found these to stick very well. Like any other adhesive patch an accumulation of skin oil, and dead skin cells will make them work poorly. Wiping your skin with isopropyl alcohol will slow that down. You can "renew" the surface by rinsing them in warm water. Be very careful not to pull on the wire in any way as they dislodge very easily, and will not go back in.

Supposedly. However, I just threw away a brand new cd that Novus 7100 #2 scratched up. The only reason I tried to use this was that the deck in my car caused a several abrasive marks on the cd. I used the product as stated. Shake very well and test on small patch. Seemed to do okay so I proceeded. I used a brand new, clean microfiber cloth. I noticed as I was polishing/buffing the surface with the #2 liquid, micro swirls were created. Fortunately, I ripped the disc to my computer prior to trying this, so now I'm burning a new MAM-R Gold Archival CD which hopefully my rip was good. So if you are determined to use this stuff, make a clean copy off the disc you are going to clean. Supposedly. However, I just threw away a brand new cd that Novus 7100 #2 scratched up.

I used Windows XP and Windows 7 and neither would work beyond learning the R and V keys. Program would just freeze up ( on two different computers) at the same point. There are clearly bugs in the coding.

I had the same problems as the others when I first loaded the program. After some research I went back online and updated my DirectX drivers and the program worked fine. I thought my drivers were already up to date but some additional files were installed. I tried the same process on another computer with success.

Okay, after a bit of frustration, I got mine to work (same problem). I clicked on the "start the 30 day trial". After doing that, it pops up a box that says I have an outdated version and an option to click on a link to get the updated version through Corel. I clicked on that, chose my operating system and downloaded the update. After install, the same box pops up to register the product and it worked.

I had to hand scrape mine. Total nightmare! And some patches still won't come off.

Use the latest version from their website. The one I bought is very old version, 1.2.
