Unitiserve in limbo

How did you power it off?. I seem to remember this happening to mine some time back but a reboot was successful.

I don't think I pressed the logo for long enough before switching it off at the back.

It's just sitting there with its froggy mouth and winking logo.

I have done that a few times with no mishap. Have you tried holding the logo down again?. If that does not work at some stage it may be worth switching it off.

Just turn it off . . . let it sit a minute . . . turn it back on.  You can't break these things doing that 

As for the logo shutdown . . . yes you press the logo, and then it fully shuts itself down.  You do NOT need to use the power switch on the back of the unit at that point to complete the shutdown.  However, you do need to use it to turn it back on again.

Let us know how you make out.

Thanks guys.

It's been off for a few minutes, unplugged and physically disconnected from the network. Then physically reconnected, then plugged back into the mains, then switched on.

And all I have is a very expensive mechanical blinking frog.

The 555 was never like this.

I feel buyer's remorse is about to make an entrance.

Hang in there.  Another forum participant posted about something similar (you can probably find that post) and it did sort itself out.  Do another power down and then power up cycle . . or as many of them as needed; I am hopeful that it WILL re-boot for you.

I've had my uServe for almost a year now, and have only powered it down perhaps 4 times, but no issues.  Again, I am hopeful

I hope your unit does sort itself out but your symptoms appear identical to mine about 2 months ago on return from holiday.  On return I switched back on but it never booted up again, the Naim logo just blinked. This was the case after numerous power downs/restarts.  There was nothing on the web client indicating what was happening.

Eventually it had to go back to the factory via my dealer for repair.  I believe several components were repalced but I haven't got the details.

Fingers crossed for you.

Well, my poor little winking frog has had a terminal seizure. It will be replaced by my ever-helpful friends at Acoustica.

Anyhoo, out of little troubles come pleasant surprises and I would like to put on record my thanks to Phil and Steve who responded to my plight with offers of assistance even when they were on holiday.

I thank you grand gentlemen of Naim. Absolutely fantastic service.

Gold Medals all round
