Ipad 1 (original) - usb connection issues

I have an Ipad 1 (original). It connected to my computer fine back in February but when I connected it yesterday it says, usb device not recognised.
I have tried 3 computers and several cables - same response.
Is there anyway it will connect to the computer again so that I can get access to Itunes to load more shows. This ipad is for my daighter so she can watch shows on the car.
USB says unknown device but says that the driver is installed even though it does not recognise it as the Ipad driver.
Have done the whole turn the computer off and unplug it to reboot usb drives and nothing.
Is there a kill switch that activates once Apple no support a device so that you can no longer use it?
Ipad software is up-to-date but is probably way behind that of Itunes - is that why it won't connect?
Appreciate your help.

USB connectivity issues

I recently bought a 20GB 4G iPod from a friend, who had bought it originally off of ebay atleast a year ago so all I have is the ipod itself and a usb cable.
Everything on it works fine, all of the music previously put on works fine, as do pictures, etc. But when I went to go add and delete files off of the ipod I got the "USB Device Not Recognized" balloon popup in XP. After going through these forums and numerous others I haven't been able to accomplish anything. I've tried the 5R's (except for restore as I haven't been able to get the ipod connected in any way to this computer).
I have another computer downstairs which is a few years older, about 5 years old but which has XP installed aswell, so I figured I might try and see if I could get anything to work on that.I tried to plug the ipod into just to see if something would work, and it showed up in My Computer right away before I had iTunes installed. I did, however get an error about the usb ports not being high speed, I'm assuming they're USB1.1 giving the computer's age, but it worked nevertheless. I got the ipod to charge, it to be accessible from iTunes, and to show up in Windows Explorer without a hitch.
After having it fully charged I tried once again to hook the ipod up to any usb port with no avail. I checked both computers' properties and found both have 500 mA to each USB port, so I would assume the USB 2.0 ports would have a better chance of working than the 1.1?
Any help is greatly appreciated, let me know if you need more information, thanks!

This may sound really strange, but if your computer has a FireWire connection, try using that instead. I recently bought a new computer (HP w/Windows XP) and had all sorts of USB connection issues.
USB Device Not Recognized
iPod needs to be restored
Cannot Read USB Storage Device
Finally fed up, I tried the FireWire ports on the computer and it worked not problem. iTunes popped right up and started updating.

Help: USB Connection issues

I have been having USB connection issues for 2 month and can't seem to find a fix. My MP is a 2 x 2.8 Quad-core with 16 GB ram, OS X 10.6.5. When I connect devices (iPhone, iPad, CF card reader) everything connects but when I sync or try downloading photos from my CF reader I get partially through but then I get an error that the device has been ejected.
I have tried disconnecting my hub and connected directly to the ports but no change. Tried new cords, hubs. If I connect my Canon 7D camera directly to a USB port I can get the images off but that take for ever because of the file size. The only thing that seem to work and not loose my connection is my Epson Pro 3800 printer.
I'm getting desperate at this point, I have two important photo shoots coming up the first of the year and need to get things working properly. Any help would be much appreciated.

Here's some tips.

N97 usb connectivity issues

Hi,
I've had my N97 for about a week now and am having some serious USB connectivity issues with the phone in that when I connect to my PC, on the first occasion it will recongnise the USB connection, but if it gets disconnected it subsequently won't reconnect. This means I am unable to install the latest version of the firmware which appears to address some USB issues. I've tried both version 1 and the beta 2 Ovi suite.
Any ideas??
Thanks,
Trev

Hi!
Me and my friend at work got the same STUPID problem. We unpacked our phones, connected them and upgraded FW and got everything setup (mail, music etc.)
Now I got back to work and thought that it was no problem plugging in my phone and update it with some new music and contacts...well was I wrong...the stupid 7000 SEK phone won't even take the electricity and charge...I get no connection to the PC...it worked fine 2 days ago...
So I try to install the stuff on the CD again, no luck....I tell Windows to add new hardware, nowhere on the Internet and nowhere on the CD are there drivers to be found...
So here I am with a million dollar phone I can't connect to my PC...what the hell is this???
Looking in this thread and seeing the answers I should not hold my breath waiting for this to be fixed...but my question is: Will I have to wait for a FW update for this phone to connect to my PC?
Regards

USB Connection Issues-New Mac Pro

I have a new Mac Pro (late 2013) that has USB connection issues.
First; it often fails to recognize a USB keyboard, or takes more than a minute to do so. I tried it with two different keyboards, one a regular Apple USB keyboard and the other a Das Keyboard unit. I tried it both on a powered USB hub and directly connected to the computer. Neither of these affected the problem. It happened both under Mountain Lion and Yosemite, and seems to be worse under Yosemite. This problem DOES NOT occur on my Mac Mini, so the problem appears to be with the Mac Pro. Most of the time unplugging and plugging the keyboard in again solves the problem. This gets old. I have gone to using a bluetooth keyboard but much prefer the USB keyboards with the numeric keyboard.
It also ejects the only USB drive attached to it. It does not eject the two Thunderbolt drives. The disconnection occurs when the Mac Pro is in the "sleep" mode; the "Disk not ejected properly" message is displayed when the computer wakes up. This happens almost all the time. The same drive does not exhibit this behavior when attached to the Mac Mini. It is an older G-Drive unit.
Possibly related to this is the fact that the two Thunderbolt units (Pegasus R2 and Lacie) do not shut off when the Mac Pro is sleeping. I wonder if the problem lies in how the unit "sleeps" and "wakes up". I don't know enough about the internal workings of these things to know how to test for this.
If anyone knows how to fix this I'd appreciate some advice.

Ipad 3 WiFi connectivity issues

All right.. this might be a two part problem. I was attempting to enable restrictions, and after I entered the passcode twice and tapped "Enable restrictions," it asked me to enter a new passcode again. Without doing much checking, I decided to resort to "Reset All Settings." After doing this, I'm unable to connect to any WiFi networks. I did this while at my in-laws house, and thought perhaps it was something flukey with their router.. however, after returning home, I ran into the same issue.
When I attempt to connect, I get "Incorrect password for "<my network>", and it says "Failed to join "<my network>" at the top of the password entry box. I have two sons with iPads, and I was able to disconnect and reconnect to the wireless network with no issue on theirs. I set up a secure guest network, and was able to log in with my sons' iPads, but not mine. Same issue.. I enter the password, and it comes back with "Incorrect password..."
When I set up an unsecure network, I'm able to join.and use as normal. There must be a settings issue that I'm overlooking somewhere, but I can't seem to find it or figure out how to find it while I search the wasteland of Google search results. Any help would be most appreciated.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

USB Connection Issues

Have the 8330 Curve and the Blackberry Desktop application. It has allowed me to install apps such as opera mini, a stock portfilio app, and can import my calendar items. I now see 'connecting' in the lower right corner. Do not see anything on the desktop app that I see as abberant. What would I need to check on the device to troubleshoot?

Hi PhilPense,
To troubleshoot any connectivity issues with the BlackBerry® Desktop Software, please have a look at the following KB article. Identifying and troubleshooting issues with the BlackBerry Desktop Software detecting a USB connected BlackBerry smartphone. www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB00125

How to import picture to iPad from USB connection

Hello there
It is very hard for me to import a picture from SD card thought USB connection or upload a picture to my web.
What is going on iPad ?

The iPad doesn't support input from SD cards except via the Camera Connector Kit. Is that what you're using?

HT201412 Ipad shows usb connection pointing to Itunes

My IPad is frozen having failed to restore and shows a USB connection pointing to ITunes. Error code on Restore is 11 which is not on the list of error codes.

Error 11 seems to be related to iPads that have been jailbroken. Is your iPad jailbroken?

E-72 OVI Suite-USB Connection Issue

Model: E-72
OS: 031.023
OVI Suite Version: 2.2.1.23
Laptop OS: Windows 7 Enterprise 64 Bit
Problem: When connecting the phone via USB, OVI Suite suggests that the phone is not in PC Suite mode where as I've selected PC Suite mode when it prompts also by going to
Ctrl Pnl>Connect>USB. But no luck, restarted Laptop multiple times, also the phone.
OVI works fine with Blutooth for all sync etc but I need USB connection working to upgrade mobile software.
Other Observations: When phone is connected via USB Windows 7 detects it as S60 device with options of manage media, browse files, import picture, not sure if this is related. Also the device shows error and requires troubleshooting in modem mode because of bluetooth peripheral device is not installed due to not being able to find appropriate driver.
This is a new phone and new OS, using for first time with USB cable, it never worked, no changes made that could be trigger for this issue, any help will be greatly appreciated

Hi gmudgal83
I am not sure whether this will solve your problrm but you could try this once.
1. Disconnect your phone from PC if connected.
2 .Open Control Panel and go to ‘Programs and Features’
3. From the list of available programs, choose ‘Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver’
4. Click on the ‘Change’ button on top toolbar.
5. In the setup dialog box that pops up next, choose ‘Repair’ and select ok. Wait for setup to complete.
6. Restart the computer if prompted.
7. Now connect your phone to the PC. Driver installation should complete and PC/Ovi suite (hopefully) should detect your mobile properly now.

PRS950 USB Connectivity issues

Very inconsistent USB connectivity - it connected to the Library software, once, and synced properly from a USB port directly on the computer. The next time, from the same port, it can't be seen in the Library software - at all. Mostly, the reader says it's connected and charging battery - but will not show up in the Library software.
Now the computer (Windows 7, SP1) wants to reformat the drive before it can be used? I'm tempted!!!
Help - please...!
Thanks,

Are you having the same issue on all USB ports? Try uninstalling and reinstalling the USB Root Hubs in Device Manager. Have you tried connecting the Reader to another computer? It needs to be established whether the issue is related to the computer or the Reader itself. If you have reset the Reader, uninstalled and reinstalled the software but the issue still persists I would recommend that you contact Sony product support for more extensive troubleshooting of the issue:

Nokia N800 - USB Connectivity Issues

I was just getting ready to purchase about 3000 770's when I found out the N800 was being released. So I bought a few test models. I am having some issues with the new model that I've not heard addressed on any forums yet:
1. USB connection to the PC is a little bit "picky". After several failed attempts to connect to my Windows XP machine ("Error connecting USB device" ), I finally figured it out: The 800 has to be powered OFF before it's plugged in. This was not the case for the 770.
2. Despite all attempts, I've failed to connect the N800 to a Mac. This is the first device I've ever had problems getting a Mac to talk to.
And finally, a complete mystery:
3. Why, on a device touting its open source qualities, is the software updater written exclusively for dot Net architecture? I wonder if anyone else has found the fact that a Linux-based device can not be updated by a Linux-based computer a bit ironic?Message Edited by sealswcc on 22-Jan-2007
08:07 PM

After upgrading from an older version of OS2008 to the latest
version, I lost the ability to connect my N800 to my Linux
box as a USB device. Before, it would show up as a USB
device, and I could access the card. Now it doesn't.
I have it plugged in when I connect the cable, and when
I start it, it boots as though the cable is not connected,
and it does not appear as a device. This is rather odd!
Has anybody else experienced this?

Asha 501 - USB connectivity issues

In Asha 501 after selecting Mass storage option the "removable drive" icon has stopped appearing on Win 7 Ultimate.
Earlier after installing connectivity cable drivers it used to catch instantly and the USB connectivity was working flawlessly allowing me to transfer files.
Today, the "Mass Storage" option is showing up but on PC the "removable drive" icon is not appearing at all.
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.. ty
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It's working now
After uninstalling and making a fresh installation of the drivers from Nokia and couple of restarts, it has started to work as normal and now the "disk drive" always shows up under the list of "Devices with removable storage"
I haven't found the cause to why it wasn't working previously but to my knowledge USB port may be the issue in recognising the USB cable when connected. Few restarts is the key.

Volvo XC60 - iPod USB Connection Issues

I am having issues with my Volvo XC60 recognizing my iPods via the car's USB connection. Is this a widely known issue? Does anyone know if there is a fix in place for this issue?

I've had a very similar problem with all my iPods. First I had a shuffle, and it rebooted windows a few times... Then I returned that and bought a Nano. A month later that was stolen, but it DID restart my computer a few times again. Now I have a 60gb video iPod, and my computer sees the iPod, but the updater and iTunes do NOT.
In regards to your specific problem... I think it's because a Windows dll file is corrupted, missing, or damaged... I can't guarantee that this will work no matter what, but at least my computer hasn't crashed yet since I got my video iPod, and I've run this program.
First, make sure you have all the latest updates from windows update. Then, go to this site, and click on the donload link for tuneXP 1.5.
http://www.driverheaven.net/dforce/showdoc.php?doc=txp_download
Download it, and install the program (it's totally free!) After you install it, start up the program, and click on the Miscellaneous menu, and then click on system file checker. (NOTE: You WILL NEED your origianl windows CD for this to finish properly.) While doing the system file check if it ever says that it can't find a file or can't read the disc, ALWAYS tell it to RETRY... Eventually it'll find the proper file on the windows disc.
After it finishes (can take anywhere from 20 min to a couple hours depending on how fast your pc is) restart your pc, and then try using your ipod again.
This has caused my computer to not crash anymore when having my ipod plugged in, but now I can't see my ipod in itunes, or the ipod updater.
I can still put music only on my ipod though using the vpod program which is completely free and easy to use. I have to be able to use itunes to be able to put videos, album art, and pictures on my ipod, but at least I have music on it.
Let me know if this helps, and if you want to know where to get vpod.

USB connectivity issues with Canon 5d

Running 10.4.8, and Capture one Pro 3.7.6. we are trying to tether our Canon 5D to our computers.
It had all been working fine, but the camera had to go back to Canon for repair to USB connection.
On Return it wouldn't connect to either of our machines.
We tried to see if it would connect through Canon's own software, and it would not.
But here's the thing: a borrowed 5d won't connect either, and yet it connects fine to its owners computer. AND Our 5d connects to their computer.
Other point: we do have the ltest firmware, and have for a while. Also, Canon EOS 1ds connects fine through firewire.
I think this points to Mac, and maybe to Canon and mac. Anyone else have a thought?
(At some point I remember having to replace a .kext file when we went from 10.4.6 to 10.4.7, and the change to 10.4.8 made no problems, but there have been no updates to our software since the repair.)
Any thoughts on this will be appreciated...particularly if they solve the problem.

On Macs, tethering got broken recently, but that isn't your problem.
I know that some Nikons have two menu-settable options for the USB connection, only one of which works for tethering. Perhaps your Canon has something similar. (Nikon's are PTP and Mass Storage.)
