This is what I have done in the past: Take a good tape of little value. For instance a promotional tape. Open both the good and bad tape. Discard the actual tape of the VHS cass. that works. Transplant the tape from the defective cass. in the working housing. And presto, one restored VHS cass. (if the actual tape is damaged byond repair this will not solve your problem).
You can't really at this stage. I have had a game show called deal taped over and I can't get it back yet. :( you never know you could be able to turn back time or scientists could invent a way like a tape restorer to get it back. But no ideas at this stage. Sorry.

How can you fix a VHS tape that is stuck at one spot and will not advance?
To fix a VHS tape that is stuck at one spot and will not advance, just press the socket at the back of the VHS tape with a pen. The small button will be released, allowing for the white reels to be turned in any of the directions. Turn the reels with a pen, fingers or scissors. When the reels turn, you will be able to find out what caused the blockage. The VHS tape can be unwinded this way. It is common for one of the reels' wheel to get stuck on the VCR's mechanisms while the tape is being played.
My stuck VHS tape is inside VHS player of TV set. Don't see how to open this area--only acces seems to be the door where the VHS is. How can you remove a VHS tape stuck in a DVD and VHS player?
First things first, take the cover off the DVD/VHS player (unplugged), there may be a stainless cover over the vhs tape carriage. Remove this also. The tape should be accessible now. flip the access panel on the vhs tape all the way up, you will have to hold it up as it is spring loaded. You should see the actual tape. Lift the tape up and off any rollers or pins in the tape compartment. once this is done you should be able to manually push the tape out of the loading door. LonJames1 at hotmail dot com. Be careful, though, as the tape will most likely be wrapped around one of the spindle guides that sit beside the rollers. I lost a few tapes forgetting to look for that! wjs1632
