My SoundLink Mini isn't turning on!

My SoundLink Mini isn't turning on!

I plugged it in to the outlet, but it still won't turn on! Do I have to get a new one, or am I doing something wrong?

ANSWERS:

"1. Make sure your speaker is plugged into a working AC socket.

2. Check the connections between your speaker and the power adaptor.

3. Make sure you are using the power adaptor supplied with your speaker upon purchase.

4. If you are using a surge protector, check to see if it is working properly.

5. If you still cant get your speaker to turn on you may have a faulty power adaptor.

6. If your speaker is not charged or used within a 14 day period it with enter protection mode. Connect the speaker to the AC power adaptor to fix this issue.

7. Make sure the battery has sufficient charge to power on the speaker."

"They have a software update for them. Go to http://worldwide.bose.com/downloads/en/w...

download it and fallow the directions, it will update your unit and the problem will be fixed. It enters shipping mode if its not turned on for a wile. I have the same speaker and had the same problem. Did the update and its all good now. Mine updated from 1.1.3.something to 1.1.4.something

good luck

F.Y.I. Software updates are only available for the SoundLink Mini II (not the first version). Updating/downgrading the software seems to be a common fix for the Mini II, but for the first generation Mini you can see a list of common problems and solutions on this page: SoundLink Mini Won’t Turn on When Connected to Power"

I was having an issue where, not only could I not get the speaker to power on, but when placing it on the adapter (to resolve 'protection mode' issue) the speaker chimed the sound indicating charging, but no LED lights would illuminate to indicate that it was in fact charging. It would chime again when removed from the adapter, but would not turn on either way.

Is it because of the size of the battery or because it charges slowly. My father has one, he charged it but it doesn't turn on. Does it need a better charger or a new battery or what?

I had the same issue with my Bose mini 1st generation and this happened when it ran out of battery same day of using it. So there is No lights (red,yellow or green) on even when it's on the cradle or directly plug in to ac outlet (Considering the ac adapter and cradle has working status / power), because each time you plug and unplug it, it has a sound thingi..

"Ok now - The solution I did while it's PLUG in:
