You don't say which USB port you are plugging into. Don't plug into the side of your keyboard - the circuit gets overloaded. Plug into the port on the rear of your Mac. Besides your keyboard and mouse, what other USB devices are connected?
You may want to get a powered USB hub - has a separate power supply. Another alternative is to get a USB 2.0 PCI card.

System hangs when any device is plugged into usb port

Proccessor: AMD 64 3200+
Motherboard: MSI RS480M2
OS: Windows XP (Home Version)
Primary Hard Drive: Maxtor 6L160M0
Secondary Hard Drive (Data Sorage): WDC WD400BB-00HEA0
Most of the posts on this site are over my head so keep responses simple.
I upgraded this computer myself about 3 months ago with the above listed new proccessor and motherboard. Everything had been working fine until a couple of days ago the computer hung while surfing the internet. Reboot attempt was unsuccessfull. Windows would hang everytime while loading. My primary hard drive was about 4 years old and wanting to upgrade to a larger drive anyway I installed the above listed Maxtor hard drive yesterday thinking it might solve the problem. It looked like it was solving the problem until I started plugging in USB devices. If I plug in my Epson USB printer or my USB jump drive, the computer hangs immediately. If I plug in my Microsoft Joystick or CH rudder pedals, it gives me a message that an unknown device is plugged in and that the device has failed. It appears the that hard drive replacement actually did nothing to change the problem. I had not thought to unplug USB devices as a solution to the problem initially. Once I plug in my printer or jump drive the computer is doing exactly what it was doing before.
I am pretty convinced there has been a failure on the motherboard. To have everything working fine for 3 months and suddenly without any software changes it stops working. Then, after reloading all the software again to still have the same exact problem. I think that pretty much eliminates software as an issue and it also eliminates the hard drive as a problem.
I did have a problem finding my motherboard's CD but I downloaded the system drivers from the MSI website plus I installed Live Update 3 and installed everything it recommended including a new BIOS. I also loaded the SATA RAID files from the floppy which I did have here (even though I am not using the SATA RAID feature). I feel confident I got everything installed now and still not working. Everything else works perfectly as long as I do not plug anything into USB ports.

I have to say that using this forum is not very intuitive for me. It's hard to even figure out how to post a message.
Anyway, we can close this out. I took my computer in and had a diagnosis run on it. It turns out the USB portion of the motherboard has failed and they are replacing it now.
To answer the question though. I had removed both the old hard drives when I initially installed the new MAXTOR and still had the problem and I did make sure they were jumpered as slaves before I connected them back up later.
Thanks for you help.

Problem when plugging in M-Audio into USB port

Hi there,
Whenever I plug in my M-Audio Fast Track Ultra into the USB drive, the screen greys out and it comes up with a message that I have to restart by holding down the power button.
Once I've done this it works fine, and there are no issues while using the interface (with Logic 9), and I've tried it on both USB drives.
Any ideas of what I can do to stop this from happening/whether it's a problem with the computer or the interface?
My laptop specs are below.
Thank you in advance...

Hello Pjgordon7, Welcome to discussions.
Below are a couple articles that may assist with this. They are written for iPhone/iPod Touch but they may assist you with the iPod Classic as well. If not I have also posted some other suggestions below.

-Check E-machines vendor website for possible updates not only to USB drivers but any other drivers that may need updating like camera software, video card software, etc. They can advise what is needed for your machine.
-If you are connecting iPod Classic to front USB ports. Try using some of the USB Ports on the back of the machine.
-Disconnect any un-needed USB Devices and only connect iPod Classic
I do hope some of this information is able to assist you today. Post back if needed.

My MacAir will not recognise anything inserted into USB port. They work on iMac and I have tried inserting slowly and have set preferences to read "Read only"

My Mac air running OS X 10.9.3 will not recognise anything in USB ports, even thought they are fine on iMac computer and it has happily read them up until today. I have tried inserting slowly and checked preferences to accept Read only devices. Any ideas?

IPhoto 11 does not see thumb drive when inserted into USB Port, 9 did.

I updated from iphoto 9 to 11 and updated to OSX, Previously when a usb thumb drive was inserted iphoto would see it, now irt does not, anyone have any hints for me?

Well here's the first problem:
The drive is in MS-DOS (FAT) format (a 500Gb Lacie).
iPhoto needs to have the Library sitting on disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Users with the Library sitting on disks otherwise formatted regularly report issues including, but not limited to, importing, saving edits and sharing the photos. So, get the Library onto an appropriately formatted disk.
If you're thinking of reformatting that disk, remember that doing so will erase it, and so make sure you back it up first.
I would try open the Library from an appropriately formatted disk. If the issues persist them try the rebuild with Library Manager again.

Trigger a process when a record is inserted into database

Hi, could someone tell me how to do the following (if it's possible):
when a record is inserted into a table in a database,
I want it to somehow trigger an action which will put an item into user's To-Do inBox of the WorkSpace,
the user can then open the form in the To-Do and use it to view the data in the newly inserted record.
this "user"'s login ID is part of the inserted record.
thanks

Mmm, trigger? I don't know of a way.
But I supposed you could have a process that has a timer that peroidically queries the database for changes and then do the same thing.
You could also perhaps write a Service and then use the Java API to start a process?
Maybe take a look here

To what format file are you saving from Audacity? Although technically AIFF format can save data tags within the file itself I have not found this to always work with all applications. Likely the information you enter into Audacity is just being saved in the file name. When you add this file to iTunes, if iTunes cannot find tags it recognizes it will simply add the track with the file name as the track name. You need to add the tracks to iTunes, then enter the information using File > Get Info for a track or series of tracks,
Some of the above information may vary slightly depending upon the file format being used.
It helps when asking questions here to provide as much information at the onset as possible. We didn't know until this stage that all these menus were in fact part of Audacity and not iTunes.

When i use on of my usb ports it freezes my mouse

when i use one of my usb ports it freezes my mouse

Had the same problem and trying to remember how I fixed it. Let's see...
Try this:
1) Settings > Messages > Receive At > Use your Apple ID for iMessage > make sure you are logged out from Apple / iTunes.
2) under "You can be reached for messages at:" > make sure only your phone number shows and no email address.
Hope that works, if not I just can't remember what else I did. However I got it working so that my tel number now shows to iMessage recipients instead of my email address.

2008 MacBook pro freezes then when try to restart goes into hibernation and cannot wake it! Any ideas?

Recent upgrade of ram. MacBook pro now freezes and when attempt restart does not shutdown but seems to go into sleep or hibernate and cannot get started again! Help!

Sounds like faulty ram, can you go back to the former ram and see that it starts ok? If it does contact the supplier of the memory and get an exchange set.

Detecting when the user is inserting a USB token

Dear Forum,
From a Java GUI application I'm trying to detect when a USB token (CrypToken from Marx) is inserted.
When I run the program below with the USB token inserted it works fine. If I start the program and then inserts the USB token I keep getting a ProviderException.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for replying, Andy!
I know that if I point my gateway at 2013, I should be fine. You mentioned that in this article:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/f622ff81-0d97-44d3-9051-f22c381fe188/exchange-2010-and-um-on-exchange-2013?forum=exchangesvrunifiedmessaging
"Once the SIP connection is pointed to 2013, it will handle both the 2013 and 2010 Mailboxes in the Dial Plan" which I found and which was helpful.
But, in the TechNet walkthrough:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn169226(v=exchg.150).aspx
And the checklist too:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn169228(v=exchg.150).aspx
It's having us move the UM enabled users before we repoint the IP gateway, which is one of the final steps. Since we're just in pilot mode right now, we'd prefer to not re-point that just yet. Do you expect it shouldn't work? Is TechNet wrong or
am I misreading it or missing something else?

Bad temp readings when sc2345 connetor fully inserted into chasis

I get bad temp readings when daq cable is fully inserted into "New" SC2345 chassis in LabVIEW, but in NImax numbers apear to be good. When cable is partialy inserted numbers seem to be ok all around. I have tried an identicale cable and dac card (DAQCard-6062E) on same laptop and got same error. If i hook up to an older SC2345 chasis the problem is not there. I have also hooked up a PC with a PCI-MIO-16E-4 daq card and the appropriate cable for this card and have no problems on the "New" SC2345.
