happens to me once in a while, usually I just open, close, and hit online and it works (old edge here)

never had it happen more than maybe twice in a row

Make sure that the end caps are correctly rotated and seated in the take-up reels. Sometimes they pop out and can cause that error message, esp with age.

If they are 100 yd foils they sometimes become "top" heavy. I've had to take out used foil and start fresh, but only happens to me on these large rolls. You can also try rolling out some foil and then rewinding. Again, sometimes rolls get to tight for clutch.

This is an old thread, you may want to start a new one and give more details, like Edge version and type of foul but in the meantime ...have you tried other foils, other brands? If it happens with all foils it sounds like you have a real problem that will require a call to tech support.
