Help!-wont charge- A USB driver has exceeded its power limits?!!?

my iPhone charged just fine for the past two months, and now it only charges sometimes.
I will plug it into the wall charger, and it will charge just fine, and then i'll go to charge it again sometime, and it just wont charge, so i tried to plug it into my macbook, and my imac, and they both said "a USB driver has exceeded its power limits, etc, etc." and so i tried my PC, and it gave me the same message. This has happened more than once, and eventually it just charges, but then the whole situation will repeat days later.
I've called apple over 3 times, and no one has helped me. so...
help??

First, try a different cable. It may be shorting out causing the USB port to overload. Especially since it happens on two computers.
If the cable is ok, try turning the iPhone off. This can be done by holding down the sleep and home buttons until the off slider appears. Then restart it.
If this doesn't help, take it to an Apple store for assistance.

PLZ HLP:A USB device has exceeded the power limits of its hub p

Hi, hope you can help me, and thanks for reading.
I have a Dell Inspiron 500 with XP SP2.
I also have a Zen Micro 6 GB that works perfectly.
Recently I attached the Zen to the laptop and every time I receive this message:
"PowerSurgeOn Hub Port. A USB device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port."
I take the Zen to my work computer and it works perfectly.
?What is the problem?
Thanks,
Regards,
Lorenzo

^your laptop is unable to provide enough power to charge your Zen Micro.
If it has other USB ports, try using them.
It may be a case that the laptop is not designed to power external devices like the Zen Micro.

Power Surge on Hub Port: A USB Device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port.

When I attempt to install an external DVD/CDRW I receive the following:
Power Surge on Hub Port: A USB Device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port.
I am forced to reset.

I would guess that your external DVD is drawing too much power from the USB port, and could be one of the older units; newer units are usually more power efficient. Such device usually come with a USB cable with two USB connectors that can draw power from two USB ports simultaneously. You may be able to get such cable separately but since the two USB ports are located at extreme ends in the S10, you may want to check that the cable come with the USB connectors with sufficient length to reach both the USB ports simultaneously.

USB Port has exceeded the power li

Each time i connect my player to either a laptop or desktop, I get the following message:?A usb device has exceeded the power limit on it's hub port?Now I've tried putting it in different usb ports but it keeps saying the same thing. Can anyone help please?

How many USB devices do you have connected at any one time?Try unplugging a device that you are not using at the?same time that?you wish to connect your Zen. If that does not work, contact your?computer manufacturer, as you may have exceeded your motherboards supply capabilities!

USB device has exceeded power limits of its hub AND no sound

Yesterday no sound, but worse...Trying to connect to computer to charge gives me the message "A USB device has exceeded the power limits of its hub power. Clicking on the balloon states "A USB device has malfunctioned & exceeded the power limits of its hub port. You should disconnect the device." Plugging into the wall charger states "This accessory is not made to work with iPhone...want to change to Airplane mode..." Is my iPhone dead? Ideas please. Thanks

Hi, Did you every get a reply? I'm having the same issue. The phone was working fine yesterday. Now, the button doesn't work and I can't sync it to restore it because I'm getting the same USB power limit message.

My iPhone USB driver has gone missing

My iPhone USB driver has gone missing and won't recognize when I try to update from the device drivers... can someone give a suggestion on how to get it back? It went MIA when I upgraded to the newest iTunes today.

Burd
I'm sorry to hear your phone is not responding! I'd love to get it back up and running. Can you press and hold both the front button and the top button? You may need to hold it for a few minutes, but an Apple will appear when the device resets. Keep us posted!

Clustered role 'Cluster Group' has exceeded its failover threshold.

Hello.
I’m hoping to get some help with a cluster issue I’m having using Windows Storage Server 2012.
When the cluster is created my Cluster Core Resources are all happy and online.
I can more the Cluster Name using “move Core Cluster Resources” between the two nodes without any problems.
If I select ‘Simulate Failure’ on the IP Address resource, it works the first time
If I do it again shortly after it fails and I get an Event ID 1254, 1205 and 1069.
Event ID 1254
Clustered role 'Cluster Group' has exceeded its failover threshold.
It has exhausted the configured number of failover attempts within the failover period of time allotted to it and will be left in a failed state.
No additional attempts will be made to bring the role online or fail it over to another node in the cluster.
Please check the events associated with the failure. After the issues causing the failure are resolved the role can be brought online manually or the cluster may attempt to bring it online again after the restart delay period.
Event ID 1205
The Cluster service failed to bring clustered service or application 'Cluster Group' completely online or offline. One or more resources may be in a failed state. This may impact the availability of the clustered service or application.
Event ID 1069
Cluster resource 'Cluster IP Address' of type 'IP Address' in clustered role 'Cluster Group' failed.
Based on the failure policies for the resource and role, the cluster service may try to bring the resource online on this node or move the group to another node of the cluster and then restart it.
Check the resource and group state using Failover Cluster Manager or the Get-ClusterResource Windows PowerShell cmdlet.
Basically I’m trying to simulate a network failure to make sure the failover kicks in.
If I click on it and ‘Bring Online’ it comes up fine.
Where do I find this Threshold Policy and set it to initiate failover if the IP Address resources fails?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,
The failover threshold is the number of times the group can fail over within the number of hours specified by the failover period. For example, if a group failover threshold is set to "5" and its failover period to "3," the clustering software stops attempting
to bring the group online and leaves the resources within the group in their current state. For example, if the IP Address resource is brought online but the Network Name resource fails, the group is left offline, but the IP Address resource is left online.
To configure thresholds for a resource:
Right-click the cluster resource and then select 'Propereties'
Click 'Advanced'
Select 'Do not restart' if the cluster service should not attempt to restart. Restart is the default
If 'Restart' is selected:
Affect the Group: uncheck to prevent a failure of the selected resource from causing the Server group to failover
Threshold: number of times the cluster service will attempt to restart the resource, and period is the amount of time in seconds between retries
Do not modify the 'LooksAlive' and 'IsAlive' settings
Unless necessary, do not alter the 'Pending Timeout'. This is the amount of time the resource is either in the online or pending or offline pending states before the the cluster service puts it in either offline or failed state

Hi Syed Tauseef Ahmed,
Please offer more information such as under what circumstances this issue occurs, what event id you have got. The failover threshold is the number of times the group can fail
over within the number of hours specified by the failover period.

Indeed you do, limit of three accounts exists for every device. You can use old icloud accounts or create account on new device and then sign in on that phone. That limit is only for creating and not for use.

Zen Micro wont charge using USB

Hi,
Can anyone help me. I have just purchased a Zen Micro and a Zen Touch. The Touch works fine. My wifes micro on the other hand is not - there was no charger in the box. I was under the impression that it can also charge using USB, but my machine (which is quite old btw - P4 650mhz Gateway) does not recognise it. Is it a problem with my machines USB, or is it more likely to be a problem with the Micro? I have purchased a Charger which should be around in the next couple of days (thinking it may need to be charged using a charger on the initial charge).
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Steve

Do you know what firmware your wife's Micro has? (Check System > Information from the Micro's main menu to be sure.) Also, what Windows version (and service pack, if any) do you use?
Do you plan to use "to go" subscription services with the Micro? Current "to go" services include:
FYE Download Zone (US only)</LI>
HMV Digital (UK or Ireland)</LI>
Napster To Go (US, Canada, or UK)</LI>
Rhapsody To Go (US only)</LI>
Virgin Digital (UK only; US version doesn't support "to go")</LI>
Yahoo! Music Unlimited (US only)</LI>
For the Touch, did you install the drivers from the CD, or download the latest drivers from here? You probably should download the new driver (unless you have 2.x Micro firmware with WinXP SP or 2) to be sure it will support the Micro too.
Are you connecting the Micro directly to your PC, or thru a hub? If to the PC, is the USB connection you're using on the front or the back of the PC? It's best to connect to a USB jack on the back of the PC if possible, not to a front jack or hub (especially an unpowered hub which won't charge the Micro). It's also possible that the Micro has issues with your PC's USB configuration; you may need to buy a separate USB card (preferably USB 2.0--you probably have USB . jacks).Message Edited by RBBrittain on 09-05-2005 07:09 PM

One common problem with driver installations occurs if you aren't using Windows XP SP2, I read several threads where this was a problem with the USB drivers, for one.
