First - just make sure you've done these things:
  1. Restart your computer AFTER you've installed the software, connected your phone to the MJ.
  2. If that doesn't get your MJ working - try the following:
  1. Disconnect the MJ safely - using the icon in the task bar at the bottom of the screen - and wait till it says it is okay to safely remove the device now.  (If you don't do this - it causes different problems.)
  2. Then remove the device from the computer. 
  3. Dump temp internet files on your computer and cache.
  4. Re-connect the MJ and wait for it to start up.  If that doesn't fix the problem, then repeat the steps above but before reconnecting the MJ - shut down the computer - and then reconnect the MJ and restart, waiting for it to fully come up.
If the above steps don't work - then your only option is to contact the live agent / customer care on the website.  Make sure you write your steps down that you have already done - as they will want you to do all these things - and this saves you a bunch of time if you have to do this - you can say its all been done and in this manner etc.
Hope this helps - God bless!
