I cannot get my computer to recognize the flash drives that I plug into the usb ports

I tried to locate a file from a memory stick and I could not get my usb port to recognize that I had inserted a memory stick in the usb ports.

No. I use VMFusion Version 2. I have not had this issue before. I have tried multiple memory sticks and they are not being recognized.

  • Can't get my computer to recognize the iPhone.

    When connecting the iPhone to the USB cable, the USB port recognizes the iPhone as a digital camera. This just started happening out of the blue. I have no idea what would cause this. Has anyone experienced this? Anyway, after being connected for a few more seconds, the BLUE screen of death appears with some memory address fatal error. As an FYI, I also have a iPod, and it connects without any issues.

    After confirming that the iPhone is in fact recognized as a Digital Camera on a PC, the sales rep at the Apple Store and I started to brainstorm the possible causes of the system crash. He said, while it is a digital camera to the USB port, the iTunes application will still load the device and sync. Unfortunately, I was not able to get that far due to that Blue Screen of Death. So, I asked myself what has changed in the past few days. Low and behold. What has changed is that I actually started taking pictures using the iPhone. As a result, there were photos on the camera roll. So I loaded the pictures on my laptop..which did not have a problem loading the iPhone, then DELETE the pictures on the camera roll.
    So after loading iTunes, then connecting the iPhone on my PC, I heard the infamous beep from the past two days. Then NOTHING for about 4 seconds, which was a good sign. Then there it was...my iPhone syncing on iTunes. It was a beautiful site. While this still doesn't solve my problem, I was happy to have been able to sync with my iTunes library. In the meantime, I'll offload my pics from the camera roll onto my laptop. Thank you all that replied.

  • TS1567 None of the recommended fixes worked to allow my CPU to recognize my iPhone when plugged into my USB ports. Please Help.

    My computer won't recognize my iPhone 4 when I plug it into any of the USB ports. I followed each instruction to the "T" and nothing seems to work. I need help.

  • My computer and itunes do not see my iphone 'device' when I plug into either USB port on the computer.  Have tried all the basic stuff suggested by 'support'.  Any ideas?

    My computer and itunes app do not see my iphone when I plug it into either USB port on the computer.  The cable works because I can hear the iphone start charging off the computer.  But there is no indication of the device in itunes or on my hard drive device list.  Any ideas?

    Have no idea what you mean by "basic stuff".  Try EVERYTHING in this support article:

  • My computer freezes when plugging into my usb port

    I just got and ipod shuffle when i plug it into my usb port a few seconds later my computer freezes and i have to restart

    Try a different USB port. I had that issue with my shuffle once and using another USB port resolved it. Here is a great iPod Shuffle Support page. Keep it handy for anytime there is an issue or question regarding your shuffle. It's very thorough. http://www.apple.com/support/ipodshuffle/

  • I cannot get my computer to reinstall the Apple Mobile Device USB software.

    Originally, I updated my Itunes and after that, it would not recognize my iphone anymore. So after that, while following directions on the Apple support page, I tried to uninstall and then reinstall the Apple Mobile Device USB software. It uninstalled fine, but when I tried to put it back, it just kept telling me that the device could not be successfully installed. How do I get it to install?

    Morning Bugsy7238,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at this article:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is not listed
    Disconnect the device from the computer.
    Save a screenshot by pressing the Home button and the Wake/Sleep button at the same time (the screen should flash briefly). Note: Taking screenshots and saving images on iPod touch requires iOS version 2.0 or later.
    Reconnect the device to the computer.
    Open the Device Manager in Windows as follows:
    Windows XP: Click Start > Run. In the resulting dialog type devmgmt.msc and press Return.
    Windows Vista or Windows 7: Click Start. In the dialog, type devmgmt.msc and press Return. If Windows needs your permission to continue, click "Continue".
    Windows 8: Move the cursor to the upper right corner, click the magnifying glass, type devmgmt.msc, and press Return.
    Expand all the sections labeled below (not all sections may be listed):
    Imaging Devices
    Other Devices
    Portable Devices
    Universal Serial Bus Controllers
    Look for the entry that recognizes the device as a camera. This entry should be called Apple iPhone,Apple iPad, or Apple iPod.
    If only "Unknown Device" appears
    If only Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, or Apple iPod appears
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • HT1329 I cannot get my computer to recognie the ipod.  I plug it into the driver and it does nothing.  Nothing shows up on the screen that the ipod is connected.  HELP!

    I cannot get the ipod (older model) to be recognied on my computer operating system 7.  It does not light the ipod up or tell me it is even connected with the device update.  I don't know what to do.  We lost all our music on our old computer that crashed.  We just want to back up the ipod so we don't lose 2300 songs.  Don't want to start over.  Any suggestions on what to do

  • I recently purchased a new Nook HD  and cannot get Digital Editions to recognize the device.

    Need help getting Digital Editions to recognize new Nook

    I'm having same problem with new iPad Mini. My public library that I connect with suggested that maybe I have too many devices (only allowed 6) attached to the Adobe ID, even though this is not the error message I'm getting. In fact, I generally don't get an error message at all, I login to OverDrive, then try and authorize my Adobe ID, which then takes me back to the OverDrive login window, and repeat. I must have tried about 20 times by now. My next step will be to contact Adobe Live Support and have them reset all my devices, just in case that's what the problem actually is.
    Good luck!

  • I have set up apple tv and airport express but cannot get apple tv to recognize the airport express wireless. Any solutions?

    Airport Express set up a wireless network in my classroom.  Apple TV is working but only recognizes the school network.  I would like a solution other than connecting the two with a cable. That would require hanging cables since I am using apple TV to run a video projector.

    Hi there,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting articles below and verifying that you have the Apple TV and Airport Express configured properly.

  • I am trying to get my digital sound output to recognize the usb port

    I have a HP Pavilion Entertainment PC
    I installed a Diamond Multimedia software and wireless dongle (usb style) to be able to put my screen output on my tv.  The output works fine, but when I select the sound the digital output to usb is not there.  It is to HP dock only. How do I change that, since I don't have a HP dock.

    There isn't a USB port on my mini.
    Your Mac Mini has at least two and more likely Four USB ports on it. If it has USB3 ports, they are backward compatible to older USB.
    Computer chassis tends to use the flat square USB-A connector shape, like the one on a wired keyboard. A USB A-to-B cable or A-to-Mini B cable or A-to-micro_B cable may be needed.

  • Was told a USB device would create a PDF automatically from the data contained within when plugged into my USB port. Doesn't seem to work. How does this work and how can I fix the device I received?

    Acrobat is not on the USB device - only Adobe Reader needed on the PC. How does this work? How can I fix this device if at all?

    You need to ask the people who sold it to you. Doesn't sound like it has anything to do with Reader.
    However, you should be wary of devices that automatically try to open files when plugged in. They can also infect your computers with all kinds of viruses or malware.
