How do I open this case after putting on ? I can open the first and third of both sides but the second lock is impossible to open

With the ipod screen side up...there are two small slots on the right side of the case. One towards the top and one towards the bottom. I open from the top one first. I insert my nail and pull the hard part of the case apart from there and then the whole left side. After that I just pull apart the remaining locks on the right. If its not coming apart that easily, just insert your nail into the remaining slot and pull. Keep in mind not to pull too hard cause you don't want to break it. Hope this helps.

It's hard to open at the first time, you need try hard to twist the cover counterclockwise, if you open it, it will be much easier to open again.

Tug, pull and pry carefully. Once it's on, it's kinda tough to get off but start with top and work your way around hard case...

Make sure you are trying to open it properly. Slide the lock buttons on each side toward the ends of the case, and they should pop open.

Sorry, but the only thing I can think of is to take it to a locksmith. They can open it for you.

This happened to me when I first put it on, too! I fixed it by putting the case on from the bottom first then pushing in the top. Hopefully that helps!

I fought with the case for some time, before it suddenly came undone! Surprise. There's a small space at the top where you can insert a nail or gently a fine knife then apply pressure to the two corners at that same end (on the outside case of course) - and that's how it happened. Good luck!

At first my case was the same way. After a few times opening and closing I can now open it easily with a flick of a finger. Hope this helps!

The front sits tightly inside the back piece which has a slightly rubbery feel to it on the sides. If you start at one of the corners you should be able to hold the front of the case still with your left thumb (if you are right handed) and with the thumb on your right hand pull back on the corner and it should come apart. It took me a few tries when I got it. I love the case so give it a try.

There are two ways that I can get it open. I take the zebra part off and pull the bottom apart. Or if that doesn't work, the pieces on the side, you pull it up, and the case will open easily

We had the same problem. It seems you have to press in on the latch, and down on the top in order to get it to open It was impossible for my wife to open it, and I had a hard time. I finally kneeled on the top to put more weight on it, and it opened. We are going to leave it open for now, until we go on our next extended trip. Try the Sentry website; they may have other opening suggestions.

Turn it over twisted it, pushed it up and twisted it again to lock it. Hope this helps.

the bottom corner of the case has a circle screw you need to loosen. that opens the case

You may need to pry just a little bit. The single side has a detent (spring ball-bearings) holding it closed, just insert object and lightly pry up, it will pivot on the two hinges and open.

Try prying it open with a screwdriver or a butterknife.try pressing it down then pry up.

Yes, I had the same problem with the safety lock. The simple fix is to take a hand drill with bit and expand the opening slightly. It still locks but opens with a mild tug. Good Luck.

There should be a rectangle about a cm long between the two plastic cases where they meet on the side. Try to unhook all the latches by pulling on that first then going all around the edges doing the same. The rubber underneath should come off easy once the plastic is off.
