I recently encountered an issue where my Logitech Harmony 650 Remote sync hung at 99%. I found a few other users mention the same issue in the support forum and found that I was able to get past the issue by continually pressing the center button (a.k.a the “OK” button) beginning at around 95%. Although the remote goes into safe mode, the sync process successfully completes at 100%. I then close the sync as normal and remove the batteries from the remote to get back out of safe mode.

what is the center button?

Sorry about that part being unclear. The “center button” is the “OK” button. I’ve updated the original post in hopes of spreading a more accurate initial message. I also tried to duplicate the error to re-verify the suggested solution. Of course, I can’t seem to get the sync to hang at 99%. Good luck!

why “continually pressing the center button (a.k.a the “OK” button)” make the remote goes into safe mode (I noticed the remote actually reboot at 95%)? What is “safe mode” and how is it different from normal mode? (Can I just leave the remove in “safe mode”?)
btw, I have the exact same issue and it seems logitech has no plan to fix this issue. Thanks for your post and it really saved me a lot of time!

This works and also by changing to a usb 2.0 port worked as well. USB 3.0 ports don’t seem to work well with these remotes.
