PROBLEM SOLVING

Ledger Live Troubleshooting

Find solutions to common Ledger Live problems and get back to managing your crypto securely.

Ledger Live not detecting my device

Ensure your device is connected via USB and unlocked. Try a different USB port or cable. Update Ledger Live to the latest version. On Windows, install Ledger driver. Restart both Ledger Live and your computer.

Forgot my PIN code

After 3 incorrect PIN attempts, your Ledger resets. You'll need your 24-word recovery phrase to restore. Go to ledger.com/start and follow device restoration steps. Never share your recovery phrase with anyone.

Application stuck on loading screen

Clear Ledger Live cache: Settings → Help → Clear cache. Restart the application. If issue persists, uninstall and reinstall from official source. Check your internet connection.

Balance shows zero or incorrect amount

Synchronize accounts by clicking refresh icon. Ensure internet connection is stable. Check if blockchain network is experiencing issues. Clear cache and resync. Verify you're viewing correct account.

Transaction pending for too long

Check blockchain explorer for transaction status. Network congestion may cause delays. For ETH, you may have used low gas fees. Wait for network to clear or consider fee acceleration options.

Can't install apps on Ledger device

Free up space by removing unused apps. Update device firmware to latest version. Ensure device is unlocked when installing. Restart Ledger Live and try again.

USB connection issues

Use original Ledger USB cable. Try different USB ports (USB 2.0 ports often work better). Disable USB selective suspend in power settings. Update USB drivers on your computer.

Bluetooth pairing not working (Nano X)

Enable Bluetooth on both devices. Keep devices close together during pairing. Remove previous pairings and try again. Update Ledger Live mobile app. Restart both devices.
