what do you mean hard reset?

1. Press and hold the back button
2. Press up until it reboots
3. Then start pressing and holding the centre "OK" button and pressing left on the control pad (you have to do step 3 when the screen goes blank but before the reboot process actually starts)

I can't explain it any more clearly - please use a search engine to find the answer if you can't understand my instructions.

Hey, I am trying to update my Zune and when I go to Settings>Update it shows that I still have Version 2.3, and it says my device is "Up to Date"... Do you have any idea what's going on with it, and why I can't update to 3.0?
ThoughtsMedia (September 19, 2008 at 2:30 am)
That's pretty strange! Reboot your PC, and reboot your Zune. Then download the 3.0 software from the Zune web site. Install the 3.0 software, then dock your Zune and hopefully it will update your Zune...

Uninstall the 3.0 firmware? No, not really - the best you could hope for is to do a hard reset which will restore your Zune to the original firmware it came with. Why would you want to get rid of 3.0 though? Is it giving you trouble?

It won't delete anything...
