turn it on by pushing the slider on the right side up sometimes you have to hold it or do it 2x if it has been in lock mode

push up on the power slider switch (located on the right side of the device), an animated welcome screen will appear, let go of the power switch, remove the pen from the bottom of the device to navigate the touchscreen, the sylvania does not respond well to the touch of fingers, hope this helps. Also when loading video to this unit you will have to resize it to fit the screen, programs are available free online to do this

Just hold the side button down and it will cycle up and down through the settings. Hope this helps.

I assume you mean the screen lock. Go to settings, security then activate what lock you want and set it.

I'm having the same problem. The manual says to hold the reset button to go back to the factory settings and then you should be able to open the GUI again. However, this doesn't seem to do anything. I've pushed the reset button and held it for up to 50 seconds and it doesn't reset. Anyone else out there figure out how to reconfigure these things? Their customer service is not responding to my emails.

If you tap the power button on the top of the unit it will display the brightness and volume. Make sure it is set to 100% You might also what to add a screen glare protector - it helps a little :-)

I ran into a similar issue but fixed it by plugging it in and holding down the power button until it turned on. You might try holding it for 15 seconds or so.

Kenneth's answer is very good. One other possibility: just hold the on-off switch ib for a couple of minutes. This may get the system going. You might get the help you need by contacting Acer support: http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/support

There is a button to turn the display on and off... If you can actually get a display that works properly.

you can set it for a blank screen...so it would appear to be turned off, which is sufficient for me

Don't reset it just turn it on manually by pushing the cover panel over the buttons. I am not sure which model you have but this works for me until the normal setting comes around and it changes it again automatically.

Try to reconnect the screen. The little plugin behing the screen. Make sure that's connected all the way

Yes, I'm having a problem as well. I think it goes to the default setting when I turn it off? Works good otherwise.
