My husband is concerned about the difficulty of connecting the device to our tv...and how difficult to switch back to TV mode.

Connecting the device to the tv was not difficult. It is easy to switch between the device and tv if you are able to select inputs or devices with your tv remote. We purchased this device for my Father who has vision issues, with it he is able to continue reading on his own.

I was a little intimidated about setting up the ViSee because of my technical limitations, but it was not a problem an it works very well and is easy to use.

It connects to composite video input on TV. Just need to select correct input on TV, either TV or video. It's not the easiest to use however since what you are reading has to be flat, a newspaper on your lap is hard to keep flat. Also hard to use with book since mouse like camera hits center of book so many times it is out of focus. My mother also had trouble keeping it in line when scanning. In time would have gotten better but not worth aggravation.

Hasn't done it yet. My husband has it where it turns on automatically when the TV is turned on, so it's on a lot. It's been a week since we've had and no problems yet.

I was having problems until I paired the remote with the tv over wifi. It is under device options... It is working perfectly now...

Yes - the problem was that the on/off switch on the TV was faulty. A service technician came over and put in a new one and now the TV works great! So it wasn't the remote. I did find that the service was great when the guy came to take care of it. Lucky for me, he had two switches in his truck because it turned out that one of the new ones he had was also bad. I went online to Samsung to schedule the fix.

If you really like technology I would recommend it. The TV itself really can do it all. The problems we were having was using the remote and watching our regular TV channels. The guide to use the TV is in the TV which really made things difficult. The remote does not have the basic numbers and arrows, which really confused us and it is very touchy. I hope this helps you.

I don't know if this is any help but you should be careful to hit the on/off button just once. This unit is molasses slow especially when you turn it on. You may be hitting the button more than once and accidentally turning the television back on.

The problem that we are having is that our TV (LNA650) takes forever to come on. The music plays and the lights flash (this morning the count was 56 times before it finally came on. We purchased it in 2008 and the problem just started) Customer service is no help--Anyone??

I agree him I back into itit can be touchy.I recommend turning it all off then plug in the wire to the first USB port on the left hand to your device then lightly touching the power button just one press and don't hold it. It should come on, at least it has for me in the past a number of times. I think one time it did. And I unplugged everything and plugged the Charging hdmi back in until all lights were lit then unplugged. Then repeated the first step above and it worked. Good luck and be patient. It charged even blue tooth speaker for me.

Yes, I did! On the short side, where the power plug goes in, there is a half-moon shaped hole with nothing in it. My tv screen is rolling and I think the dip switches are supposed to be in the hole, so I could switch to NTSC. Do you have the rolling screen problem too?

I tried everything and it didnt work for me...was stressful and time consuming to narrow down the issue..tech support from tvs ..galaxy... and hdmi cords...if you already have it...I hope it works for you...am waiting for refund..or?

Did you set it up properly, by connecting it to the tv? I did not have this problem. And yes the user interface on this thing is horrible. But it works.

I suggest you call the manufacturer for advice so that you do not damage the TV. Please let us know what advice was given for the good of mankind in case any of us get in the same fix.

My daughter says yes. My husband just doesn't find it easy to use. I think our uverse is most of the issue because it happens with all of our electronics across the board. I still like the Toshiba computer despite the issues, but I don't know what to do to fix the problem. Sorry:(

I couldn't. I tried to hook mine up and there's a ton of cord that would draw the attn of anyone tryingto unplug your TV.

Goodness! I didn't put the system up, my wonderful son in law did. I'll ask him and get back to you. We even changed the TV, got a larger one, and it's still doing fine.

Try switching different HDMI cables. if not then try switching HDMI ports on the TV.

If he can use the device without the tv being on, then you would need one for that device also. Everything we have needs to be seen on the tv screen, so we just have bob blocking the tv.
