Error:  Media In Device Not Functional

I keep getting the error message, but only occasionally, when I connect my iPod Classic to my car. I have a factory cable so that I can access the content through the navigation but several times/week the iPod stops (sometimes mid song) and tells me "Media In Device Not Functional". The dealer has done a couple of "patches" that they said would fix it but it hasn't. I'm beginning to think it's the iPod itself since we have an iPod dock for our home stereo and it too was have issues with the iPod. I'm thinking of doing a Restore.

Relieved to hear I'm not the only one with this problem with the 80gb classic, I Opened mine on xmas day and it worked ok for a few days then I got the problem as described...
the ipod played music and videos fine but windows wouldnt detect it so I couldn't sync it ... tried a factory reset (hold action and menu button for 10 seconds) this didn't make any difference, I then managed to get it into diagnostic mode by doing a factory reset, then holding the action button and the left arrow before the apple logo disappears ... after going through all the keypad diagnostics which passed windows again recognised the device, I then opened Itunes which recognised that the ipod had a serious error and offered to restore it back to its factory settings, which I did, I then also updated it to the latest software
again it worked fine for a few days and then I got the same error in windows xp again ... thinking the drivers might be corrupt on my PC I tried it on a different PC but with no luck, again got the same error
My Ipod is now back at Comet ... but because of their stupid policy I cannot get a replacement as it was bought more than 14 days before I took it back, even though it wasn't unboxed till christmas day!! so it looks like I'll be without it for a while,
I will keep posted on the outcome but any other feedback would be appreciated from anyone who has had the same problem

    iphone 4S will not charge, error that USB device not working, found any suggestions?

    Hello Chambless,
    The troubleshooting steps below can help get your iPhone to charge.
    If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
    Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
    Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
    Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
    If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
    Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
    Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
    Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
    Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
    If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
    If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.

  • USB2 devices not functioning to USB2 speeds on K7N2 Delta-L

    Dear all,
    Before i get the "Use search" button, i have and done it practically all day trying to find a solution.
    My system: MSI K7N2 Delta-L, running on Windows XP service pack 2
    4 USB ports at back panel, 2 USB ports on the D-Bracket (where there is a High Speed sticker on it)
    All USB ports front or back "work" but not any allow me to use a USB2 enabled device to make it function at its designated speed.
    An example is: Transfer of a 20MB file takes 25seconds... ludicrous for a newly bought Kingston 1GB USB2 complaint flash drive.
    I have read the stickys, i am certain the USBOC is not connected by any wiring, the manual in K7N2 already stated that, my BIOS is at the latest version, my system is functioning correctly, no IRA conflicts by checking through device manager.
    http://www.apxc57.dsl.pipex.com/Connections.JPG
    This shows that the USB2 Kingston device does not get routed to the Enhanced host controller, i do not know why, please let me know if you know!
    http://www.apxc57.dsl.pipex.com/Front%20USB%20unplugged.JPG
    A better view...
    Standard Enhanced PCI to USB host controller - I'm not as certain to understand what this means. Does it mean that my board ONLY supports the Enhanced USB IF i purchase a PCI card that has USB2 ports on it??? And it means that ALL 6 of my ports onboard (including the D-bracket) are all Open HCD..........
    I honestly have searched everywhere and there is NO definitive solution to this problem i'm having yet, MUCH MUCH appreciated if anyone can give a guiding light.....please !!!
    THANKS VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE...

    Interesting update... here:
    I've been thinking about what everyone said here, so i was questioning whether this Kingston USB2 device is really USB2 standards.
    Please take a look at here: http://scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=245123
    That is the actual product and where i got it from, please just take a quick nip at the specifications.."Super Hi-Speed 24MB/sec"
    As you know, i have the MSI D-Bracket 2, the exact image is found here: http://www.modsynergy.com/Modsynergy%20files/MSI-5.jpg
    You can see from that image, that it clearly displays a "High speed, certified USB" from the red/blue logo.
    A description that distinguishes between "High speed, certified USB" from "Certified USB" can be found here: http://www.everythingusb.com/usb2/faq.htm
    Near to the lower end of the page.
    Now... interestingly i now notice the back cover of the USB2 Kingston drive in which it was concealed in, take a look here:
    http://www.apxc57.dsl.pipex.com/KINGSTON.jpg
    Cast your attention to the Red Circle i have done. It doesn't say High speed certified, it just says Certified USB.
    SO, let me quote from "What are USB Hi-Speed and USB Basic Speed logos? These logos are part of USB Promoter Group?s branding program that ensures the quality of USB products. The USB 2.0 certified products would display a blue, white and red logo, bearing the words ?Certified? and ?Hi-Speed.? The classic USB 1.1 certified products would display a black and white logo with the words ?USB? and Certified.?"
    If my USB2 kingston device is really USB2 and support the 24Mb/sec transfer rate, the box should in fact have a high speed logo not a black/white one correct???
    Thanks for reading, i'll get in touch with the supplier i think... probaly RMA come saturday.

  • Libretto - USB Device Not Recognised error message

    Hi there
    I have a workaround for this problem which ocassionally happens. It is just to reconnect the USB hub(as recommended by Windows). I was just wondering if someone knows why this happens and how to fix it. The error is :--
    "USB device not recognised. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognise it.
    USB Roob Hub (2 ports) - Unused Port, Unknown Device.
    Recommendation: try reconnecting the device. If Windows still does not recognise it, replace the device. "
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Kind regards
    Julia.

    Hello Julia
    It is always advantageous to mention which model you have exactly. Obviously the external device is not recognized correctly. Check if there is some driver that must be installed before you can use it properly.

    It sounds like your iPod is not showing in iTunes when you connect it and that is what is not allowing you to sync. Please review the attached article to help you troubleshoot this connection.

  • USB Device Not Recognized - Palm 700p Verizon

    Hi,
    Yesterday morning I could sync, yesterday afternoon I got the error message "USB Device Not Recognized.  One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it."  Sometimes when I click on the associated error pop-up message, it shows the location of my "unrecognized device" but sometimes nothing shows up.
    I've seen a couple of posts on the web generally about this, but not about the 700p.  I've tried rebooting the computer, tried syncing to a different computer, tried rebooting the phone, and blown out the contacts.  I don't want to buy a new USB cable if I can help it because I'm thinking about getting a Pre anyways (although the fact that I can't seem to use Palm's chat function through either Internet Explorer or Firefox is starting to dissuade me). 
    Anyways, is there anything else I can try to resolve the issue with my 700p or should I just give up?
    Thanks,
    Margaret

    if you already tried your phone and USB cable to a different USB port and computer then the problem could be in either the phone or the cable. if you don't want to buy a new cable because of your plan. maybe you can visit a store near you where you can borrow a cable or PC. at least you trying to make sure which is defective. in cases like this, the cause is the USB cable.

  • USB device not recognized ... any help ?

    Hey guys,
    So i went to plug my iPhone 3G into my PC running Windows Vista and it comes up with the error message,
    "USB Device Not Recognized
    One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it."
    Last time this happened I uninstalled the USB Root Hubs on my computer and when they reinstalled my iPhone connected, but it has happened again and this method no longer works.
    I've tried restoring my phone, turning it on and off, i tried stopping my computer from turning off my USB ports but to no avail...its getting very frustrating because i can't sync my phone
    ANY suggestions would be great PLEASEEEE!

  • USB Device Not Recognized - USB device attached has malfunctioned & Windows does not recognize it

    I have an HP Pavilion dv4 Notebook running Windows 7 Home Premium and the USB ports worked fine for an HP deskjet printer and an older Casio digital camera. Then one day, the laptop decided not to recognize the Casio digital camera and gave the error message "USB Device Not Recognized" and also indicated that the device attached to the computer has malfunctioned. This prompted me to buy a new Canon digital camera. Well, a new camera did not fix the problem. Now, anything connected to either of the 2 USB ports will not be recognized by my laptop. Help!  I'm at a loss to figure this out.  I've tried the suggested Microsoft help below: 
    Suggestion 1: For the issue with USB devices, uninstall and re-install all the USB controllers. This lets the controllers recover the USB port from its unresponsive condition.
    The USB controllers represent the USB ports in Device Manager.
    a. Click Start, type device manager in the Start search box and hit Enter.
    b. Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
    Note: You might have to scroll down the list to find this item.
    c. Right-click the first USB controller under Universal Serial Bus controllers, and then click Uninstall to remove it.
    d. Repeat the above step for each USB controller that is listed under Universal Serial Bus controllers.
    e. Restart the computer. After the computer starts, Windows will automatically scan for hardware changes and reinstall all the USB controllers that you uninstalled.
    f. Check the USB device to see whether it is working.
    This did not correct the problem.  Then from device manager, I tried updating drivers on all the USB controllers and root hubs. While some may have received downloaded software updates, it still did not correct the USB device not recognized problem after restarting the computer.  I'm hoping someone knows of the fix to this situation and can pass it along to me. Thanks for reading and posting any help.
    This question was solved.

    Hey 655micha, 
    I'm sorry you're having an issue with a USB device. Do you get an error window that pops up? If so what does it say? Have you checked Device Manager? Is is just one device that isn't working? Has it ever worked before? Is it just one USB port in particular that isn't recognizing devices? 
    What model do you have? Here are the steps to find your product number. FN + ESC is the easiest way to find that information.
