Answer 1

is the key lock on?

Answer 2

You should charge it at least 4 to 8 hours -- or preferably overnight if you're using it for the first time.  At the very least charge it for about an hour before trying to synch if the battery is completely down.  (or close to it)

If it's new and it's dead, go back to the store where you got it and yell at them. lol

Answer 3

You didn't charge it good enough! You need to charge it for at least 45 minutes to get a good enough battery! If you hold it down for 3 seconds it turns it off. If you flip the hold switch it locks it. While the hold switch is showing Orange it will be locked. When it is showing white then it will be unlocked.
