E4200 and USB Drive 2.0 help

Hi I have owned a E4200 since the day it was released. I just now today bought an external drive to connect to it though.
I bought a Seagate 1.5T GoFlex Desk which is on the list of compatible drives.
My question is.
I connected it and it is working, the problem is that the router says it is connected with USB1.1 not USB2.0.
Major problem as the transfer speeds are only 662KB/s as is.
Both the router and the Seagate say they use USB 2.0 but for whatever reason the router doesnt seem to recognize this.
What can I do in order to force the router to see the 2.0 connection?
Thanks for any help

Make sure you are using a usb 2.0 capable cable and you could try unplugging the router and HDD power supply for 30seconds, then try plugging them back in and see what you get. 
I don't work for Cisco. I'm just here to help.

  • IPod Nano, Windows, and USB driver quirkiness question

    Hey all,
    I recently helped someone who was suffering from two separate, show-stopping iPod/iTunes problems to get things into such a state that they could actually make use of both. Things seem to be working fine, though one of our solutions seems to me to be a bit less than optimal.
    For the sake of providing as much information as possible, the first problem (though likely unrelated) was the infamous vanishing iTunes installation. We solved this by using the ctrl-alt-delete trick on an iTunes 4.9 installation (that is, by ending all of the install processes when the installation-ending error message shows up.) Okay, that's not the best solution, but it seems to be all that we can do for now.
    The main concern, however, is with the iPod USB driver, and a problem that began with the formatting of the iPod. I can see that at least a few people have had this problem, but here it is for the sake of it:
    The iPod installation software would state that the iPod needed to be formated, and then proceed to sit for a very long time, "waiting for iPod," until it would eventually fail. We solved this using the second technique (uninstalling the iPod USB driver) outlined by Paul Green7 in this thread: William Brame, "Initial formatting of iPod Nano", 02:49pm Sep 22, 2005 CDT
    After doing this, we ran the iPod setup software again, and it told us that the iPod didn't need to be formatted. Obviously this was rather confusing, but upon loading up iTunes, it proved to be true. It appeared as an actual drive in My Computer, and it showed up properly as a 4gb iPod which songs could be copied to without a hitch.
    That is, until the computer was rebooted. After a reboot, the iPod would only be recognized once again as a "USB Mass Storage Device," would not appear in My Computer, and indeed iTunes failed to recognize it as anything other than a 360gb storage device of some unknown sort.
    So, what we found was that every time the computer was rebooted, the driver needed to be uninstalled again, and when Windows booted again the iPod would be properly recognized.
    Now, as I said, this leaves things in a working, if far less than ideal, state. Can anyone think of a more proper fix for this? It seems to me that we've only partially addressed the problem here, and I can't help but think that this may not be the best state to leave things in.
    Also, if nothing else, is there any possibility of ill effects resulting from our currently-employed solution? As far as I can tell, the worst thing about it is that it's merely bothersome, but then, I've had difficult understanding these problems in the first place.
    That said, if anyone can offer any advice, it would be greatly appreciated!

    The key to your problem is more than likely the 360GB storage device. This is a symptom of having either network drives or an external hard drive attached to your computer, and Windows confusing them with the iPod. The solution is to reassign the iPod's drive letter. See this:

  • Clean install mavericks failed. No bootable USB drive either. Help please.

    HI guys I really would appreciate some help here.
    i Saw on apples site how to do a clean install of mavericks. In disk utilities I erased my osx drive and began The download of a fresh copy. I didn't back up my files as I was going to manually install my applications etc. When the download finished and it tried installing mavericks it failed, I restarted as it was the only option and it failed again. I ran disk repair and it said everything was ok. I only have Internet access at the cafe near where I live so only have it during the day. I checked online with my iphone for similar troubles and found everyone mentioning making a bootable USB version but... As it did not say that on the mac website where it showed how to erase and install a clean copy I never made a USB copy. I'm left with my macbook not able to install my os. Please can anyone advise, I have no way of getting to a Genius Bar and there is no mac service repairs in my area.
    I'm now using Internet recovery. I rebooted with option-command-r. A globe came up, I am now downloading mountain lion. Is this the right procedure now or am I wasting time as I only have a few hours left in the cafe with my macbook on? Thank you in advance.
    Gregg
    ps- I had mavericks up and running on my previously but wanted to  basically clean my system of preference files, unwanted folders etc etc. Lesson learnt. I just need advice on the steps I must take to have my system  working again .

    What you are doing now is the correct procedure, install the Mac OS X that came on the machine.  From that you can have a working machine and then install Mavericks again.
    Building a bootable/installable Mac OS X on a USB drive is time consuming and not necessary for most users...it is not difficult but it takes time and precision to get it right.  Perhaps something to do in the future when you have the time.
    Using a coffee shop internet connection is not a good idea for installing Mac OS X...you need a good, solid internet connection to do that, one that is reliable and offers sufficient bandwidth.  But you don't have much option at this point since you say an Apple store and the genius bar is not available to you.
    Finish the Mountain Lion install, reinstall your applications, get the Mac up and running well, then do the Mavericks install on top of the Mac OS X you have.
    You would do well to get an external hard drive, great ones are available from OWC http://www.macsales.com and make a good backup of your entire system as soon as you are finished installing Mac OS X.  If you make the external a bootable copy, such as by cloning with Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper, you can always have a working computer...life will be much easier with that.
    Good luck building Mountain Lion, and get the system running again before upgrading Mac OS X

  • Winpe and USB drive, can one be mapped?

    I am creating a reference disk in Virtualbox that is Win7 and customized with the applications I would like for a standard image. I am trying to capture the image using imagex which is being loaded from an iso file. I first tried just writing the wim file
    to the VMs drive to later copy it to wherever I wanted it. I got to 90% and then it failed because of insufficient disk space. I didn't try writing the wim to a network repository because I already attempted that and the network connections are too slow, something
    not in my control. Is there a way to get Winpe to recognize a USB hard drive? Alternatively is it perhaps possible to "network" the write of the wim file to a folder on the host computer? I realize this is somewhat a mixed question between MS Winpe
    and Oracle Virtualbox, I so want to move to HyperV! Thanks for any help :)

    Hi! Ive been using virtualbox for many years to create my image. Please make sure you install the "Guest Additions". This will enable you to insert a usb and you will have to go to devices-->usb devices and select your usb drive in WinPE mode.... This
    will allow you to choose the correct drive letter using imagex.

  • "Connect as . . . " and USB drives

    Using Leopard, I use to be able to connect to a remote computer using a Admin user login information and get access to the USB drives connected to my Mac Pro. Now with Snow Leopard, I only have access to the startup drive. Is there any way to re-enable the sharing of external USB hard drives in Snow Leopard?

    With Leopard, I never had to add the external USB drive to the Sharing System Preference panel. Just in case, I opened the Get Info window for the USB drive and selected "Share Folder." After doing so, the drive appeared in the Sharing System Preference panel. Unfortunately, it did not help.
    My Mac Pro has two internal drives and two external drives. I am connecting to it from my Macbook on the road using Back to My Mac. I can see the Mac Pro and can connect to it, but when I do, I can only access the Mac Pro's start up disk. The other internal and both external drives are not available.
    Just in case it has something to do with the WAN (though it always worked fine with Leopard), I used Back to My Mac to view the screen of a Mac Mini I also have on my home network. Taking control of the Mac Mini, I used the Finder to connect to my Mac Pro. Though both the Mini and the Mac Pro are on the same network, I still only have access to the Mac Pro's start up disk.

  • Webcam and usb drive not working--possible hardware issue?

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a Lenovo ideapad U510 with Windows 8. I bought it as a returned machine but the Staples employee didn't know why it had been returned and thought it was just because the buyer didn't like Windows 8. When I first set it up I kept getting an error message that my usb device was not recognized, even though I had never plugged anything in. As I was leaving the country, I dismissed the issue and decided to deal w/ it when I returned to the US, since my other usb drives worked fine.
    However, later my integrated webcam stopped working as well. It worked one time when I used Skype but not after that. I checked online forums for possible solutions, and most said I needed to download an updated driver. I didn't think this was the issue b/c when I went to device manager and tried to update my driver for the easycam, it said I already had the most up-to-date driver. I have uninstalled drivers, downloaded and re-installed drivers, and even refreshed my computer, all to no avail.
    Here are the error messages I receive:
    In device manager>view>show hidden devices>imaging devices>Lenovo EasyCamera, device status says
    Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45)
    To fix this problem, reconnect this hardware device to the computer.
    When I try to run the Bison setup: Lenovo EasyCam has not found! 
    When I try to run the Chicony setup: Setup failed! Please Plugin camera and install driver again!
    So, I'm thinking it's not a driver issue, but I'm not a techie and don't know what else it could be. Wondering if the usb problem and webcam problem are connected. Found another forum post that said maybe the webcam is not connected to the motherboard...suggestions?
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    I am certain it is a hardware issue from the problems youre describing. I would contact Lenovo. They may try to have you purchase their "software" support, but don't let them. I had wifi issues and they tried to make me spend $90 because I was too lazy to figure it out on my own.
    Make sure when you're calling support that you tell them that you restored to factory default and before you send your computer in, back up your data. Also tell them that it's a new computer and you do not want to pay for shipping... They will most likely comp you shipping in both directions.

  • HT1349 very slow external HDD and usb drive connected to Apple Extreme Router

    Hello
    So I got a western digital USB drive (500gig) and western digital Live 2TB.
    I bought a new Apple Extreme router and connected them both.
    USB drive and external hdd (WD Live 2TB) very slow when connected to Apple Extreme Router, using Lion 10.7 and updated both firmware for router, western digital and Airport Utility.
    Slow means, it takes half an hour to copy 200 Mb of file to the WD Live 2TB, and its connected to my router with a gigabit ethernet cable!
    Is someone else having the same problem, I thought even over usb I should get around 2-5mb range.
    I am using Macbook Pro and 802.11n with Lion 10.7.2
    Please Help

    The USB WD 500 gig is connected to the Airport Extreme using a non-powered USB 2.0 hub, only two things a HP printer and the 500 gig is connected through it. I already formatted it to MAC OS Extended Journalled. ANd I think the speed didnt change.
    For the WD 2TB Live I didnt format it to anything, started using it out of the box. I just updated its firmware. I was having the same speed even when I directly connected it to my Mac Book Pro using ethernet gigabit cable.
    This WD 2TB Live doesnt have any USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 connectors, just the ethernet cable. I wasnt planning to carry it around. Just wanted to use it as a good ol NAS. So then I saw the fix somewhere and connected to this drive via AFP,  afp://MyBookLive._afpovertcp._tcp.local/Public and it become suddenly very fast. Just like how it should be, I easily copied 20 gigs in around 20-25 minutes. (This was dirctly connected to my computer)
    So then I thought my problem is solved and disconnected my WD Live and connected it back to the Apple Router again, and the speed became very slow again. Now both the USB 500 gig and this 2TB Live are slow.
    Time machine is also very slow.
    Thing is I also have a linux and windows machine(in repair, but should be up soon), Since apple is the newest computer I have, I want to make it work on this first. I dont want to use the MACosx journaled on the 2TB right now. Besides formatting the USB 500 gig to this format didnt help with my speed. So the problem can be elsewhere.
    - I will try to get a powered USB hub as woodmeister50 suggested.
    - I dont know how to connect via iCloud as cigame suggested
    Please let me know if you guys have any suggestions. I have tested and returned enough routers in past few weeks. I really want it to work on this combination LionOSX + Airport Extreme + WD Live.
    Thanks

  • 10.2.8 and USB drives

    I have an ancient G3 iBook running 10.2.8 from which I want to transfer some files, but I can't get my USB 2.0 drive to show up anywhere. Suggestions?

    Was there any indication of it in System Profiler or in Disk Utility?
    If the format of the USB drive uses port power, it may not have
    enough power to spin one. If the item is a USB Flash one, it
    may have backward compatibility or format issues. Most USB2
    drives and USB flash are backward compatible to USB1.1
    Since you say USB2.0 enclosure for a hard disk drive, the item
    may have issue with the older Mac and OS X 10.2.8 Jaguar.
    Do you have another USB cable to test?
    Usually with older Macs and file transfers, a FireWire device
    drive and cables for FW400 works best. USB1.1 is way slow.
    Not sure if resetting the NVRAM/PRAM may help. Some kinds
    of odd effects can be remedied by using that or the PMU reset.
    A power management unit reset varies with G4 computer build.
    Good luck!

  • Itunes and usb drive

    i got a new computer and i want to transfer all my music using a usb drive but once i plug the flash drive into my new computer, i can transfer all that music to itunes, but i can't seem to save it or get it to stay on itunes since when i disconnect that usb flash drive, it obviously can't locate those song files anymore.

    Make sure under Advanced tab in iTunes>Preferences, +Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library+ is checked. Good luck!

  • OS X 10.8.4 - Hard drives and USB drives showing up as numbers, not names.

    It used to display as "System" for my main hard drive, and "Media" and "Time Machine" for my USB drives but since recently they only ever show as "57.80", "-263" and "60+000/=76" respectively.
    Reboots don't show them as they should be. They appear like this in finder, desktop and disk utility.
    Any way to get it so their names show instead?
    Thanks.

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
    { diskutil list; echo; diskutil cs list; } | open -f -a TextEdit
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.

  • Airport Extreme and USB Drive

    Hello,
    It appears there are two hardware versions of the Airport Extreme base station - the UFO shaped one that I have and the flat rectangular version. I would like to know if it is possible to use my AEBS with an external USB drive. I have searched the forums and found posts regarding 7.x software and external drives. I am using 5.3.1 and there doesn't seem to be an option for an external drive. I have tried the software update and it indicates there are no updates.
    I just bought this base station along with my MacBook Pro at an Apple Store last November. I am going to be very unhappy if they sold me an outdated unit.
    Thanks for any suggestions!
    Roger

    The round 802.11b/g AEBS does not support USB hard drives.

  • Aebs and usb drive

    I want to consolidate two itunes libraries into one on a usb drive connected to my aebs to sync with my atv. What would be ideal would for the usb drive to be able to work with time machine also but i guess the only way that would happen at this point would be to purchase time capsule and i think i will wait and see if able gets this fixed first. So if i hook my usb drive to the aebs how do i get it seen by my imac and my macbook pro? I have seen the post on how to get the itunes libraries there from both, or at least i think if i follow the post on moving itunes libraries i can get them there. Then if i sync my atv to the new itunes library or itunes account all should be good i hope. Two users one library.

  • Stupid or smart? SATA and USB drive in RAID1

    Hi All,
    I would like to use the cubieboard as a fileserver. I would like to make a RAID1 setup of 2 hard drives, but the cubieboard only has 1 sata port.
    Is it possible to make a RAID1 array from a SATA hard drive together with an USB drive? Would the USB drive slow down the sata drive?
    Best regards,
    Cedric

  • 10.5.2 lockup and USB drive problems

    My install of the update went fine. However, I've had a few of problems since the upgrade.
    Once, I couldn't eject a thumb drive. Applications began locking up until I pulled the drive without ejecting it. I also had a time where I couldn't eject my iPod until I rebooted the system.
    My recent problem was that the screen saver locked up while importing an iMovie HD project into iMovie 08. I haven't had that since I installed the firmware update on my iMac. I had to power cycle it.
    Just a few flaky problems but they seem to be getting worse.
    Anybody else with these issues?

    Maybe your update didn't go as well as you think. Did you repair your hard drive and permissions before updating? If not you may have updated a somewhat corrupted system that is now even more akilter. I suggest giving that a try:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
