I bought my daughter funkeys starter kit dream state and a pack of two with a chat funkey. Loaded the software and only one funkey is recognized. When a new one is put on base, it asks you to download for that funkey new funkey, which I had done. Then I am unable to open the program. I have to reboot the computer, and try again. It still will not read the funkey I downloaded. Only the same one as before. Any advise?? My daughter is so upset and mattel is not open today (1/3/09, saturday) guessing due to the holiday. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

If she is trying to put in DS funkeys, and she has the 2.6 (or below) update, then all the DS funkeys would have that download thing pop up.

I would just suggest after the update leave it alone for a while & then try an hour or 2 later....I know that others over on TSE are having problems with updates, etc & have called Mattel & because SO many ppl (being the holidays) are having troubles with the updates the servers are lagging.....I got my 4.5 update in the middle of December but it was the day after Christmas that I actually got to log back on to their server to even try it.....

JJJJKKKK, it sounds like you are still running the older version of funkeys. When you log into funkeys, does it check for an update? If it does, does it tell you that you need to download the 4.5 version?

If you do not have the update then putting in one of those dreamstate funkeys should trigger it

If it doesnt open itself back up, can you just open it back up again? I dont want you to have to reinstall but you might have to

what op system do you use vista or xp? here is some help from ubfunkeys@thespeakeasy.com "It seems to be a problem for several people. You do the update, then click on "lets go" then it is supposed to restart the game, but sometimes it doesn't. I waited for 45 minutes and it never restarted the game. If you restart your computer or go into the Taskbar and shut down the opperation (the update) then it appears that you never downloaded the update.
I can't swear this will work for everyone, but I think I might have figured out how to fix the update. After I had hit the "lets go" and the program did not open, I hit Ctrl+Alt+Del. I went into Task Manager under the processess tab, scrolled down to UBFunkey Update, right clicked and selected "open file location". It pulled up a file menu and on the menu it had a link for the updater. I clicked on the updater link and saw it pop up on the task menu and this time the updater actually looked like it was doing something (instead of showing 00 under the CPU it showed 03-05). It only took a minute or two and Funkeys opened up. Hope this helps other people."
hope this helps some.

I tried the right click under ub funkeys and it only said "end process, end process tree and set priority". there is also a shaded one which says debug. Am i doing the right thing?

ok do you use windows vista or XP? if using vista, try to run as adminastator. also check your firewalls..sometimes they need to be turned off for the update then you can turn them back on

okay, one time i had to do this, after you log into funkeys and put a funkey on the hub that does not work, do the update. wait a few minutes after clicking on 'lets go'. when it doesnt start, try this......
ctrl, alt, del ......task manager should come up
click on process
find the ubfunkeys.exe
click on it, at bottom of task manager click on end process.
then try to load funkeys again.
