I bought this 2 years ago, and liked it. I have lost 3 position bar. How can I get hold of a 3 position bar? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would try contacting the company. However, I just looked at mine, and it's just a heavy hollow metal bar, 23" long, and 3/4" wide. It feels like a curtain rod, only heavier. It does have a little prong on each side, but this is not really necessary as it drops quite a ways down into the slot. Personally, I would just duct tape it on if it seemed to come loose. I'd almost bet you could find something that would be that size at Home Depot, or a hardware store, and they maybe could cut it down if necessary. It doesn't have to be hollow either, although the original is. Hope this helps.

If you push the button 2 times fast it will go to the next mode. Do it again and it will be in the 3rd mode . etcHope this helped

Sorry, I haven't had any problems with mine so I'm blank on where to tell you to go. Best of luck finding it though.

Actually, I just bought a replacement bar from Amazon, it was a WORX bar. As this bar was listed as discontinued by WORX, I was thrilled to have found one.

I had trouble with this too. I tried 4 or 5 times, then it just fell into place. If you look at the picture carefully, the loops go over the bar and the bottom protruding arms hook on the bottom bar. Good Luck.

I bought mine on ebay, for a reduced price. It was new, but for me still a waste of money. I have not been able to use it, as the bottom of the UI screen ends up below my physical screen, and there is no scroll bar to remedy this, at least not in my version, I have Quickbooks Accountant 2013. I tried for a long time to fix this, and though it was I who was doing something wrong, until I finally found several reports on Google regarding the same issue! No scroll bars, so I cannot scroll down to the bottom of the screen, where there are buttons that I need to use. So for me at least, this is a white elephant. You may want to research this before buying, or buy a different version. I would check a different version too first, to make sure this bug/issue is not there as well.

I had the same problem shortly after I received the sound bar. I never worked again and I couldn't get any response from Sentry. Total loss and waste of money.

Hello, well, that just happened to me, it was working fine until one day I couldn't turn it on at all. There is one thing the makers of this Soundbar forgot and that is : Manual Controls. Somewhere in the Bar should have the Controls so, in cases like this, the owner could turn the Bar on and manipulate the Volume, Bass and Treble and the other Features. I called Philips and they sent me a new Remote Control but, unfortunately didn't work. In my opinion due to the fact that the Circuitry inside is very Sensitive any Fluctuation in the Electrical Current like a Sudden Blackout, etc. could damage the inner system. I don't remember having in my neighborhood any Blackouts but anything is possible. I notified Philips concerning the outcome of the new Remote Control so they advised me to let Amazon know my situation. Amazon did a good response, something I am very grateful. Thank you. Joe.

I would advise calling the company and seeing if they can walk you through what may have happened? Or go to the store and trade it in for a new one. They can transfer the number and everything pretty much right there. I had no problems when my daughter's acted up. Honestly have no clue why there would be letters/numbers under the lock screen? Try rebooting first, leave it off for like 30 minutes and see what happens. Otherwise, follow with my other 2 choices. Sorry, thats the best I have on that. :)

Pull apart the wide hinged music holders. If it sticks make sure both angled horizontal bars are folded down in the middle of each. If still stuck close up and start over. I love mine. Roger

Kent...UPDATE to my Post under C. Watts - I was able to reinstall the keyboard and get the F5 key to work. While the quality of materials is lower on the current generation of keyboards, mine is working fine and the quality is acceptable. As far as spacebar issues and such, I think it's just a break-in period you have to go through. And truthfully, this is the best layout of a keyboard I've ever used. I use it every day, all day long and just would not want to be without the split design.

Jaye, The bar will come out of the little slot with a bit of pressure, but it shouldn't come out unless you are a little rough with the unit. Even if it does come out, it takes little effort to put it back in.

I think you'd be out of luck until you had the computer fixed. It is pretty sturdy and fits onto the bar pretty well. Unless you rip it off, I don't know why it would stop working.

I had the same problem after I had it for about 2 years... as did others I read about. I took it apart thinking I could fix it and saw how it was made....it is a throw-away, all plastic junk. Funny thing is when I put it back together it worked again for a while. I finally just threw it away...If you want my recomendataion I would bang it around a bit, then see if it works again, it did for me. If not? Toss it, it is junk!

That is strange. I have actually had no problems with mine at all. In fact, I really like it. Do you think you have the speed set on your mouse pointer too high or maybe the button to roll the screen in the middle is somehow stuck? Looks like you could get it replaced at least.
