Why doesn't Bluetooth work?

• Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled on both devices. If Bluetooth is not enabled on one of the devices, it will not be able to connect.

Why isn't the device charging?

• It may be that the charging interface of the tape drive is loose or damaged. Try to clean the interface or replace it.
• It may be that the charging cable is damaged or has poor contact. Replace a charging cable.

Why won't the CD player play my CD?
