With newer OS's, it is almost impossible to corrupt files from a "unsafe" USB disconnection.
What firmware are you running? Last edited by Lunatic Wolf; 03-04-2009 at 11:29.. |

Do you have all of your files backed up on your computer? If so just reflash the firmware and you should be fine.

I'm not very familiar with Macs, but I know that you can format the S9 safely if you right-click on the device in Windows. Many people who thought their S9's were screwed got them working fine again after doing that. I'm sure there is a way to do this on a Mac, right?
Check this thread out... http://iaudiophile.net/forums/showthread.php?t=24873 See? You can format it without screwing it up  Last edited by PowerTorsk; 03-05-2009 at 02:14.. |

Try one more time.
If it fails to work, you're gonne have to get a new one. Believe me - once you a working piece of S9, you're gonna be one happy camper  Actually, I would recommend you to see of you can use a friends WIndows PC and format it with Windows Media Player. Just try and see if that makes a difference. If you don't have the chance to use a PC, then never mind Last edited by PowerTorsk; 03-06-2009 at 08:14.. |
