You can factory reset it in the program itself.
 
Yeah to think people would pay to use their built in GPS Tisk tisk

I was stating a fact, no need for the stroppy sarcastic reply!

You cant as all you get is the error52 pop up which only gives you the option to Quit which also closes the program, so no option to factory reset.

I had the same problem and had to swap it for a new one at Nike Town.
 
yup only quit option! and error 52 always..i tried hoezay procedure but same

There are some things you can try on Nike's support pages but none of them worked for me and i tried them on 1 PC and 2 Laptops.

Best option is to take it back to where you got from and ask for a replacement.
 
Don't want to hijack your thread, but figured you guys maybe know about this stuff..

Can that watch track my distance without me needing to use the Nike+ module in my shoes? I just want a slim watch that can track distance, nothing else.. think this is it, but not certain :eek:

Under the Technology tab, it says" You'll need Nike+ ready shoes and one of these" so yes, you will need Nike+ ready shoes.

Mine yesterday, but doesn't look like I will be hitting my goal today. Rainy day + tired = sucky day.
 
Cheers!

For the Fuelband - I take it it don't register anything if you wave you arms around like crazy? It only registers movements from the sensor in your shoes?

It's actually the other way around. It tracks arm movement only. So if you run, you better move your arms.
 
Oh.. so you can wear it all day with different clothes and different shoes? Don't need to keep using that nike+ sensor?

Nope no need to, the band has its own sensor and app. The Nike sensor in shoes is an alternative since I believe it plots gps and exactly how far you ran.

Wow nice.. the thing that stopped me getting a Fuelband was thinking I'd have to use or move a sensor in all my shoes.

My parents would love one each in that case.. they're always tryin to lose weight. Cheers again!
