Enable usb connections (disabled due to cooling pad)

I was using a cooling pad connected with a usb cable and due to use of too much power, some of the usb connections were disabled.  Does anyone know how to enable them or will i have to bring it to a technician?

  • "USB ports Disabled due to power drain..." error   HELP!!!!!!!

    Okay, I got the dreaded pop-up saying that my USB ports had been disabled because of too much power drain.  Well, I unplugged everything and restart, still get them on boot up.  Again, nothing hooked up but the power cord.  I've done PRAM/NVRAM resets several times AND SMC resets several times.  I've upgraded from snow leopard to lion, I've even created a new user and NOTHING will reset the USB ports. I even downloaded the Xcode 4 developer tools and tech tool pro 6 to see if they have anything that can fix it and nothing helps. Does anyone know of a command line that may force them to restart or an app that will help.
    Your help would be much appreciated!

    Sounds like your USB hardware may have developed a fault (a short?). Can you take it to an Apple Store?

    Hi. During the process of updating my ipad to IOS 6 utilizing iTunes, I received the error #1602. I tried the update procedure again, this time itunes does not recognize the devise. The pad is displaying USB connecter to iTunes. Can anyone recomend a fix?
    Thank you

    There is only one fix now. The message on the screen means that you have to restore the iOS software on the iPad now. Read the part at the very end about using recovery mode.
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software - Support - Apple
    About the error code.....
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602
    Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
    If needed.....
    Additional Information
    If your device is continually restarting, not responding, or showing the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar, place the device into recovery mode and try restoring again.

  • HT201363 my ipad has been disabled due to one of my household trying the 4 digit pin to unlock it ..they obviously got it wrong..i have plugged ipad into myitunes on my laptop and it is still disabled..how do i re enable it ?

    my ipad mini has been disabled due to one of my household trying the 4 digit pin to unlock it..they obviously got it wrong...i have plugged into my itunes as requested on screen into my laptop but it is still disabled ..what do i do to unlock and re enable??

    Hey ade17768,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines what to do if your device is disabled:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you have previously synced your device with iTunes, you may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device:
    1. Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
    Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
    2. If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
    3. When the backup and sync is complete, restore your device.
    4. When iOS Setup Assistant asks to set up your device, choose "Restore from iTunes backup".
    5. Select your device in iTunes and choose the most recent backup of your device.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Urgent!  External Displays not working due to "USB Devices Disabled"

    I use a Matrox DualHead2Go ME for two external displays.  Suddenly, I got a message:  "USB Devices Disabled... Unplug the device using too much power to re-enable device."  Though the DualHead2Go (DH2G) works, it stops functioning seconds later.  I tried resetting PRAM and SMC.  The ports are fine as I can use them for other devices.  If I unplug the DH2G and re-plug, my external monitors work for a few seconds, then the DH2G shuts off per internal light winking out.
    I don't think this is a problem w/my DH2G so much as my macbook pro early 2011.  I don't know if there is a connection, but this all seemed have happened suddenly when I fidgeted with iTunes and my iPhone 4S.  I really need my external monitors for work.  HELP!
    I also run a lot of programs, but I've been doing this forever and I've never had problems w/my two externals usingDH2G for some time now.  I have 16gigs, external HD, 500gig HD.  Thank you to anyone who can help.  Figures Matrox is closed on the weekends.

    It's working. I have no idea why, but I'm not complaining.
    Thanks,
    John

  • TS3682 I have tried to restore me iPod that is disabled due to typing in the wrong password too many times. iTunes keeps giving me a box saying that it can't connect because I need to type in the passcode on the iPod (which I can't) what do I do now?

    I have followed the steps provided by apple to restore an iPod touch. It is disabled due to having the wrong password entered too many times. When I get part way through the restore process on my computer it pops up a box saying that it can't restore until I enter the passcode into the iPod. I have tried this same process over 5 times now and keep gutting the same results. It is my kids iPod and he has only had it since September. Someone please help me before I throw the thing through the window and my kid strangles me!!! Thanks!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • On my MacBook Pro with Retina Display, Why does the "USB Devices Disabled Unplug the device using too much power to re-enable USB devices" keep coming up after I unplugged the usb device?

    On my MacBook Pro with Retina Display 15", that I purchased a few weeks ago, started coming up with the following message on my desktop:
    "USB Devices Disabled Unplug the device using too much power to re-enable USB devices".
    I unplugged the device and the message still keeps coming up.
    This is what I have done so far to troubleshoot:
    I shut down the laptop. When booting up I pressed the command+option+p+r at the same time. It comes up with a menu to reinstall OSX, Get help online, Run Disk Utility, etc. I choose the disk utility and repair the disk and then restarted.
    The message keeps popping up and I can't seem to get rid of it. Why does the message keep popping up even though I don't have any devices hooked up to the laptop at all? Any help to reenable my usb ports and get rid of the messaage would be helpful.

    I talked to Apple Support and we at least stopped the bleeding, a little bit. These are the troubleshooting steps I did before I contacted Apple Support:
    1. Reinstalled OSX
    2. Restore the last known good Time Machine Backup.
    This did not fix my issue, so I called Apple Support and they told me this:
    1. Turn Power off.
    2. Wait 15 seconds.
    3. Plug in Magsafe adapter.
    4. Wait 15 seconds.
    5. Hold down the Shift+Option+Power Button for 20-30 seconds.
    6. Turn Power back on.
    Ok, this stopped the bleeding a little, but as soon as I plugged in a Apple USB Superdrive
    and a Apple Mini Displayport to VGA Adapter. This "USB Devices Disabled" pop-up pops up like every 30 minutes now. At least, it is not constantly popping up after I close it, so I guess it will do for the temporary. Going to contact Apple support, later, though to see what else can be done.

  • HT201401 Need help to enable my 3g iPhone which has been disabled due to forgotten passcode

    HI....Need help to enable my3G iPhone which has been disabled due to forgotten passcode.Thank you

    If you forgot your passcode, restore the phone on the last computer it was synced with. If you do not have access to the last computer it was synced with, you will have to force it into recovery mode and restore as a new device.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.

  • My Apple ID has been disabled due to changing the credit card, how can I enable it again?

    My Apple ID has been disabled due to changing the credit card, how can I enable it again?

    you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on any iOS devices that you have by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store (Settings > Store on iOS 5 and below) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them
    If that doesn't fix it then contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    ps.its my only charger and i need to know if i can fix this problem or my mac broke my charger

    Hey HoustonSmith, using to much power generally means a short. Do not use this cable, the lighting cables have a history of failure; shorting out. If within one year of purchase date take it to Apple, the cable also has a one year warranty, if short is do to manufacturing flaw and not abuse Apple will replace it free! Otherwise a new cable is around $30. You could also try a reset or restore, but don't think a glitch is your problem. If you do try to restore, just remember to make backup copies of all the info / data on this iPod to your computer first, then attempt to restore. Good luck. Cheers.
