Won't charge or turn on
I've had these earphones for a while now, and they've worked great the whole time. I've taken good care of them, and they are practically like new. But from one moment to the next, they won't turn on. When I plug it in to the charger, the insignia logo flashes red once and goes dark. Anything I can do?

I wrote to Insignia and they recommended the following procedure, which worked for me:
1- Plug the charger into a power outlet
2- Press the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons at the same time for resetting the device.
My earphones are working well now.

1- Plug the charger into a power outlet
2- Plug the charger into the headset

This worked for my headphones, when I first purchased them: Thank you for contacting Insignia Products about your NS-BTHDST,Insignia
Bluetooth Headset.
I'll do my best to assist you,so you can start enjoying your product right
away!
According to the issue you described, I'd recommend you to try the following:
1- Turn on the computer and plug in the USB bluetooth adapter and then restart
the computer.
2- Make sure the headset is off and press and hold the multifunction button
until the blue and red lights flash alternately.
3- Open up MY BLUETOOTH PLACES and click on VIEW DEVICES IN RANGE. check if
the NS-BTHDST appears listed. If so, right click on it and click CONNECT. At
that time, you will be asked for the bluetooth password which is 0000 (four
zeros).
4- If the NS-BTHDST does not appear listed, click on SEARCH FOR DEVICES IN
RANGE. Once the headset is found, attempt to connect.
If the product works for music, but you cannot get it to work to chat, please,
refer to the software manufacturer (Yahoo,etc) or the computer manufacturer.
Perhaps there is some configuration you have to change, since the product is
working fine for music.

Yeah, if you would have looked at the posts in front of you, you would have seen that if you plug the headphones in and then hold down the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time it "resets" the headphones. You then should be able to push the power button and have them come on. I thought my headphones were done and now they work just fine.
Same problem, not charging or turning on. Pushing the volume up and down at the same time then pusing the multifunction button to turn them on worked for me. Working fine now. Happy to have them back. I love these and use them every day. I don't have the receipt anymore from BestBuy so I couldn't return them. Was really bummed out but it works now! :-P
