Double check to be sure the headphones are positioned correctly on the charging station. They should 'click' in place and a red 'charging' light should be on. If you're sure they're on the station right, you might want to change the rechargeable batteries IN the headset. Sometimes they sit on shelves or in warehouses too long and the batteries, though rechargeable, aren't 'forever'. Failing both of these options, contact the company and tell them you got faulty merchandise and want a replacement set. Be insistent, be nice and if you get nowhere with whomever you first speak to, ask for their supervisor... and so on and so on.

You need new "rechargable batteries" I find I need to replace them about every 9-10 months, depending on how much they are turned on. We both watch TV about 6 hours a day and more on weekends. Ours screw up when they are not chargring in their unit.

If by "beeping" you mean the blue lights on the headset go red, it sounds like your batteries are not holding a charge. You need a fresh set of NIMH (nickel metal hydride) batteries. Place them in the headset and give them an initial charge for no less than 16 hours. Placing the headset in the charger ensuring that the charger red light comes on solid instead of blinking assures you have a good charging connection. I still have my instructions, so hope this helps.

Check & make sure you have rechargable batteries installed. When the batteries ars charging the red center lighi will be on. It takes 12 or more hours for the batteries to charge the first time. When you are charging the batteries make sure the headset is turned off. Also make sure the headset is properly installed on the charger.

Karen, you must have a "charger" unit, that the headphones set into to recharge. The "rechargeable" batteries can be bought at Wal*Mart. If you don't have a charger, check out any search engine (I use ask.com) and write in the name of the headphones and the model number. You will be able to buy a new there (or used unit on e-Bay) I absolutely love our headphones! They work great and have excellent stereo quality.

agree with previous answers, i just hold it until it beeps reducing in tone. Don't count the seconds just hold it. Remember the price if you have any frustrations with it.

I'm sorry, I don't know what could be the problem, I gave them as gifts and they are working fine. Maybe take out the battery and replace it?

This has never happened to mine.But I would unpair it and do a new pair up.Also you can try taking out the battery for a minute that should reset it. And try it again see if that helps.

I see many have answered already. I get about 6-8 hours, then when it beeps in my ears I use a longer usb cable to charge them while using them. win.

Agree with Jenny and others. Hold the top/12:00 button, hear one beep, then keep holding, you'll hear a second, different beep. It is now powered down.

I had this happen to me recently. I found out that the speaker was not properly turned off. I unplugged the speaker held down the power button and the speaker beeped. I held the power button down again to the get the powered off beep and then plugged it back in. The speaker then began to charge.

Try them out on an Ipod, or phone or anything else that takes a standard headphone. If it still doesn't work, it's the headphones, return them, if it does, it's something on his laptop.

I had the same problem, the battery does not hold the charge, I returned after trying to charge it for 48 hours

I had the same problem. It's caused by the battery moving around. Instructions that come with the beeper say that you can fix this problem as follows: "Remove the battery. Gently and slightly raise the small silver metal tab under the battery and then replace the battery. This will hold the battery more tightly in place." It worked for me, for a while, and then the problem came back. So again I bent that little metal tab up GENTLY.

It happened to me as well once. It happens when you forget to turn them off before charging. Then some or all the keys don't work. I'm guessing the problem has been fixed already since this answer is six days after. But you just have to wait for the battery to run out and for them to turn off on their own. Then you recharge them and turn them on. To prevent it from happening again always turn them off before you charge them.

The one I bought did not work and shipping it back to a third-party seller cost money, so it still sits here to see if I can get it to work. But I had an identical one for years before and a red light blinked on the bottom face of it. There was no beep, I'm sure.

Plug it up to charge. You will see the back lit light comes on and the graph that shows it is charging, and it does beep. This unit will stop charging once the charge is complete. Mine took about 26 hrs. to fully charge. Try letting it charge for a few hours, could be that your unit came without any charge.

Alarm beeping? Replace battery. Give it a day to self adjust. Still beeping? Replace with another fresh battery, push the test button. Give it another day to adjust. Still beeping. Push test button. Then give it a day to stew. Still beeping? Replace battery, push test button, smack it against the ceiling once. Give it another day to consider. Still beeping? Replace with a battery from unopened package, whack it with a screwdriver, shake it, yell at it, roughly twist it into place with some kind of verbal ultimatum. Give it another day. Still beeping? Continue with the methods I have written for you and expand using your imagination. Generally works about the 6th or 7th go around. Lemonbalm
