I believe you need a USB 3.0 micro cable such as this one from Newegg:

I lost the USB cable that came with my phone (wt19i Live With Walkman)

I lost the USB cable that came with my phone (wt19i Live With Walkman). However, the charging power adapter still here.
I don't have any other cable.
My phone's USB port use Micro-B connector.
If I buy a high quality USB cable with Micro-B connector, will it be compatible for both charging and data transfer?
Is it necessary to buy the original Sony Ericsson USB cable? If yes, which model should I buy?

Can I use the iPad power brick to plug a 'Y' USB cable from an external hard-drive to get enough USB power?

Hi,
I cannot power-on my iomega eGo using a regular USB cable and my iMac (2010 model). Since I have the wall USB brick charger of my iPad, I was mondering if I could plug a 'Y' USB cable in the following way:
- from the eGo, to the iMac and the last 'Y' connection to the brick to get the power.
Will this work?
Thanks

It sounds like you're going to end up squirting 2 amps of electricity into your iMac into a port which is supposed to supply power, not receive it. Very bad idea. Consider the word "fry".
From the specs for your drive: "Requires USB 3.0 port or ExpressCard™ or PCIe slot for best performance"
USB 3 ports supply nearly twice the power of USB 2 ports.

I purchased an used iPod nano 4th with many many songs on it,but when i hooked the usb cable to try and change the name,something went wrong.i had to reset it,thinking my music would still be there,but i lost everything! Is there any way to get these back

I purchased an used iPod Nano 4th.with many,many,many songs and albums on it,but when i plugged the usb cable into my laptop(i am a new comer to computer) i thought i was changing the name and thought i was syncing but something went wrong and everything was gone! is there any way possible to get these back? Please I need Help!!! Thank you!

Was the music purchased via your iTunes account and/or did you buy it from other sources or copy it from your own CDs, or did the music belong to the previous owner ? If the music was yours then you can sync it back to the iPod via your computer's iTunes. If the music is not still on your computer then have you got a backup of it ? If not then for iTunes purchases you might be able to re-download it depending on which country you are in. If the music was put on the iPod by the previous owner then you will need to buy your own copies of it.

Can no longer charge Nano with the USB cable

My iPod Nano (1st gen) won't charge via the USB cable any more. It will sync if there is enough battery life when I hook it up to the USB cable. However, if I leave it hooked up, it gets drained of all it's battery life. Fortunately I have a wall charger and a car charger and both of them will charge the Nano. It's a lot more convenient for me to charge it via my computer, but that's not possible any more. Is my Nano dying or is it possible the USB cable is damaged? If it's damaged, how can it sync but not charge? Why can I charge with other power sources but not the cable? Unfortunately, I don't have another iPod cable to test if the cable is damaged. If my Nano is dying, can you give me a rough estimate as to how long it will be before it stops charging all together. (I need to prepare my spouse for the upcoming iPod Touch purchase that will appear on credit card.)
Thanks.........Julie

Here's my own trial and error analysis of my problem. I hooked my iPod up to my old G4 PowerBook and tried to charge it from there. It didn't charge but it also didn't lose any more power that I could tell. I then hooked it up to my MacBook's first USB slot. I heard that the first slot has more power than the 2nd slot due to the way the 2 USB ports are configured. Unfortunately, the iPod appeared to have lost some power, i.e. the USB port drained some of the power from the iPod.
I'm guessing I need to take it in to have my USB ports checked out. I prefer to take it to an Apple store with a Genius bar that is 3 hours away instead of to our "local" Apple repair shop that is an hour away. I have Apple Care and I believe my local shop will still charge me for time.
Thanks for the suggestions. Until I find a day when I can take the long drive, I'll just charge my iPod from with a wall charger. I'm grateful the iPod syncs and I have an alternate way to charge.

I just bought an ipad and when I tried to update itunes ios and I pluged the ipad into my computer and opened itunes. It started to install and then said there was an error, now my ipad has a screen the has the usb cable and the itunes logo on the front

Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

I cant figure out why my HTC Droid DNA is no longer recognized by my computer when i hook it up with the USB cable that came with the phone.

I used to be able to just plug in my phone with the USB cable to my Windows 7 computer and browse phone storage with no issues. Now my computer sees it as an android phone but when it tries to automatically install the drivers for my phone on the computer, i get an access denied error message. No option on the phone that i can see that allows me to mount phone as a usb drive. This used to work just fine with nothing more than just hooking up the cable. What gives??

Let's get that access granted again, e_rock_b. The HTC DNA doesn't have a special USB Mass Storage Mode that needs to be turned on. Usually, it's as simple as connecting and browsing http://vz.to/1jktbZD as you mentioned. If your computer is no longer allowing that easy access, try the steps at http://vz.to/1jktvr6.

Why does only the USB cable that came with my phon...

I recently acquired a Nokia Lumia Icon from Verizon. I have a Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 computer running Windows 8.1 with the Windows Phone App for Desktop (WPA4D) installed. I had a very difficult time getting my Icon to be seen by my computer when connecting it with one of the half dozen micro USB cables I have laying around. WPA4D would not recognize it. Then, I connected it using the USB cable that came with the phone, and WPA4D immediately recognized it. Then I unplugged it and went back to a different cable - it was again not recognized.
What is different about the USB cable that ships with the Nokia Lumia Icon? If I want to order more, like from Monoprice, what do I order to get the same thing? Why is Nokia (apparently) using some sort of proprietary cable??
Thanks,
Eric

It is not proprietary.The charging/data cable for my GPS works.
A lot of the cables are just for charging and that is all they are wired for and they don't even have the data pin. Full size USB cables are the same way.
If I needed an extra I would get it from Nokia.

When I plug my phone into my PC with the USB cable an ad starts playing on my PC. How do I stop this?

When I plug my phone into my PC with the USB cable an advertisement starts playing on my PC. The advertisement is for an add-on product called Backup Assistant Plus. How can I stop this?
I read of a work-around to stop this, but it does not meet my needs. The work-around is to change your USB connection option from "mass storage device" to the one of the options about uploading pictures. This would not work for me because I'm connecting the cable so I can access the phone's memory as a mass storage device!
This is a seriously obnoxious problem affecting millions of people. It's a common conversation in bars, and all the iPhone fans are saying--yea, I told you so, stuff from Motorola is junk. I'd recommend that it be fixed as soon as possible!
Model: Droid Razr
Android version: 4.0.4

Yes, you can stop it. When you plug in the phone, down in the lower right of your screen, click and pull up the Motorola Device Manager. Do as you please with it.
