Lost USB connection when restarting computer

When the computer restarts, the two USB DAQ devices are not visible to LV or MAX. 
To get these devices (USB 6210 and cDAQ 9211 with USB single chassis) to register, I need to unplug and replug them. 
Is there a way to get LV to see the devices without physically breaking and making the USB connection?

USB DAQ devices don't show up unless I unplug and plug the USB.PNG ‏25 KB

Carmen,
This is an issue that we have seen before, basically when the OS is loading, all of the hardware is detected. In some cases USB devices are detected, but the OS has not completed its driver loading process, causing a race condition. You are able to recover only when you either power cycle the USB device or unplug and plug your device.
I would read the following article that explains how to force windows to remove and redetect a USB device.

I would then create a batch file that runs each time the computer boots.

  • IMac late 2013 lost usb connection after efi smc update

    Hi
    Lately i purchased a late 2013 iMac with i7 and fusion drive.
    After i update to Mavericks and patched new efi and smc update,my mac start to lost usb connectiong when using, from keyboard mouse to my usb sound card, System is not freezing just the usb deviecs. have to press the power button to restart
    already tried reset NVRAM and PRAM but doesnt work.

    Exactely the Same issue with my iMac 27-fusionDrive3T late 2013, having USB HDs for time machine and data. I contacted the Apple support who propose first level  of support: resets SMC, hard reset and so one without success . I did several trials removing hubs, using different USB (3.0,2.0 and 1.0) and changing devices connections(direct to iMac or through USB hub). I succeeded to find a stable configuration puting audio USB speaker  directly connected to IMac. When I put this USB speaker through USB huband  launch itune music after a certain time all USB chain freeze, and by consequence no more possibility to control the iMac with keyboard, trackpad .... IMac is still working,!  The only possibility is to reboot the machine with tne reset button. Hope also this will fixe in the future OSX release!

  • HT1296 I want to synch my address book using the usb connection to my computer, but the IPad doesn't appear on the desk top?

    I want to synch my address book to my I-Pad using the usb connection to my computer, but the IPad doesn't show up on the desk top or in I-Tunes. Any suggestions?

    Try again to install the latest version of iTunes; http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Otherwise when your iPad is connected with your computer and iTunes open try several times; Keep the Powerbutton and the Homebutton pressed at the same time until you see the Apple logo on your iPad screen.

  • Freezing up after latest 10.5 update when restarting computer or waking fro

    Freezing up after latest 10.5 update when restarting computer or waking from sleep. Is anyone else seeing this?

    I am having the same problem with the screen not waking up after it goes to sleep. Once I was able to recover with pressing the power button just long enough to wake it but not restart. The other two times I had to power down and restart -- I also got the jagged screen graphics once.
    I have been experiencing this since I installed the 10.5.3 update. It seems to be ok if I put the computer to sleep using 'Sleep' on the Apple menu, but if my screen saver comes on and it goes to sleep on its own, then I have problems waking it.
    Frustrating - I don't like to power down and restart my iMac if I can avoid it.

  • I lost my connection when I was using internet and when I want to reconnect to airport it give me connection timeout error, I changed my password on router but still doesn't work. How can i fix my problem?

    Hi,
    I lost my airport connection when I was using internet and when I wanted to re-reconnect to airport it gave me connection timeout error, I changed my password on router but still doesn't work. How can i fix my problem?

    Hello there hastibahreini,
    It sounds like you were using your Wi-Fi network from your Airport base station and the connection cut out. You have reset the password on the device but the issue persists. I would try the 3 resets outlined in the following article in order to help resolve the issue. If it persists, is the Wi-Fi connection issue happening on more than one device or computer?

  • WRT54G ver 6 router drops all existing connections when new computer joins

    Hello,
    I have a WRT54G version 6 Wireless router that operates fine with one exception. I generally connect to the router from one of three laptops in the house. If one laptop is connected, this existing connection drops as soon as another laptop connects to the router. The connections will automatically reconnect in a 10 seconds or so, but it dumps my VPN connection when it disconnects. I am tired of re-establishing the VPN connection everytime this happens.
    Any idea why it is doing this? Better yet, how can I get it to stop?
    two of the laptops use Windows XP, the third is Vista.
    Thanks,
    DM

    I don't know exactly what is causing your problem, but clearly you are having some poor wireless connections.
    The first thing to do would be to download and install the latest drivers for all of your computer's wireless adapters.
    If you still have the problem, then try the following, more or less in order:
    First of all, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your computer find and lock on to your router's signal.
    Poor wireless connections are often caused by radio interference from other 2.4 GHz devices. This includes wireless phones, wireless baby monitors, microwave ovens, wireless mice and keyboards, wireless speakers, and your neighbor's wireless network. In rare cases, Bluetooth devices can interfere. Even some 5+ GHz phones also use the 2.4 Ghz band. Unplug these devices, and see if that corrects your problem.
    In your router, try a different channel. There are 11 channels in the 2.4 GHz band. Usually channel 1, 6, or 11 works best. Check out your neighbors, and see what channel they are using. Because the channels overlap one another, try to stay at least +5 or -5 channels from your strongest neighbors. For example, if you have a strong neighbor on channel 9, try any channel 1 through 4.
    Also, try to locate the router about 4 to 6 feet above the floor, in an open area. Do not locate it behind your monitor or near other computer equipment or speakers. The antenna should be vertical.
    Also, in the computer, go to your wireless software, and go to "Preferred Networks" (sometimes called "Profiles" ). There are probably a few networks listed. Delete any network named "linksys". Also delete any network that you do not recognize, or that you no longer use. If your current network is not listed, enter its info (SSID, encryption (if any), and key (if any) ). Then select your current network and make it your default network, and set it to automatic login. You may need to go to "settings" to do this, or you may need to right click on your network and select "Properties" or "settings".
    Some users have reported improved wireless connections by switching to WPA encryption.
    If you continue to have problems, try the following:
    For wireless g routers, try setting the "Transmission Rate" to 54 Mbps.
    If you still have trouble, download and install the latest firmware for your router. After a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Lost internet connection when macbook wakes up

    I didn't have any problem with this before until recently. The day before yesterday, when I woke up in the morning and I found out that I have lost the internet connection. I've always set my macbook to sleep after it idles for 1 hour (with that in mind, I never sign off AIM/ICHAT) but never (ever!) lost internet connection. Since then, this always happen everyday.
    What happened here? Can somebody help me? Perhaps you could give e a step-by-step trick to make my macbook setting back to normal
    Thank you so much

  • 3000 N100 lost network connection when resuming from standby

    My Lenovo 3000 N100 laptop seems to lose it's network connection when it resumes from standby.  I have to restart the machine in order to reconnect to the ethernet network.  Running WindowsXP Pro.  Any advice or suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Sorry for presumption that it was wireless connection issues, it might work since the solution involves tweaking or changing power management settings.
    However, if does not work you can still look for the solution in that website by entering the problem in the search dialogue box and clicking "search site"
    Let us know how it went.

  • Lost internet connection when computer moved only 5ft!

    I wonder if someone can help me with this odd problem I've been having. I have a Mac Book Pro that is wirelessly connected to the internet via Airport Extreme. I also have a Roadrunner cable modem hooked up to my TV (in the Living room) and to Vonage (in my home office about 30 ft away). The Vonage phone box is connected to Airport base station (also in the office) and the base station is connected to my PC (also in the office). My Mac Book works fine when it is on my dining room table, but once I move over to the couch (which is only about 5 ft away, but closer to the cable modem, Vonage box and Airport base station), I lose my internet connection, even though it shows that I have a strong Airport signal. Not only do I lose the connection, my Vonage phone box starts to blink (it should be a steady green light), and my phone stops working. My internet connection on my PC also stops working. Once I move the Mac Book back over to the dining table, everything works again (after a few minutes). What could be causing this, and how can I fix it? Everything was working fine up until about a few days ago. I was able to move my Mac Book anywhere with no problem. Now I move it to the couch and everything shuts down! So much for the convenience of WiFi. Help if you can, please! Thank you.

    Since you mentioned that everything was "working fine up until a few days ago," do you recall making any changes (hardware/software additions, security updates, etc.) that could have potentialy modified the configuration of your MBP? How about in the environment? Added or relocated any electronic equipment, especially ones, like cordless phones, that operate in the 2.4 GHz band?

  • Lost wireless connection when upgrading to 10.6.8

    Friend upgraded to 10.6.8 and has lost the ability to establish wireless connecttion again after re-start.  I was able to re-estable Airport connection to the router, but it will not go to the final internet connection process.  I ran Assistant and it goes all the way through till it needs to connect to the internet and a message comes up to restart router.  I do this but noting happens.  Gets stuckrepeating the restart router message.  Any suggestions?
    I had the same proble when I upgraded last weekend, I use an Airport Express, and it took me several trys to finally get internet back and finally the last patch to get the wireless printer to work.

    You may want to have a look at this posting. Many owners of Xerox printers, mostly with Fiery print controllers, are having the same error with the lpd backend. The easiest solution for many was to retrieve the 10.6.7 version of the lpd backend from their time machine backup and replace the new 10.6.8 version. If you don't have a time machine backup (crazy practice when the app is built in) then a kind user has posted the file for others.

  • Turn off applications opening when restarting computer

    I hate in Lion how when I restart my computer, all of the applications I had open before reopen. Can I turn that off? It takes start up forever. I've seen how to uncheck "Restore windows when quitting and reopening apps" and I've uncheck that, but it doesn't work for this case. I just want to start up like normal and I pick the apps I want to open at the time.
    What do I need to do?

    First, the best thing to do is to make sure that you quit applications before shutting down; also, check in your Users & Groups Pane in System Prefeences to see what if anything you have in Login items. If you don't want it to open, delete it from there.
    Thirdly, if you want to turn off any chance that any apps will open, you can do the following; please note that this is system wide, so don't do it unless you don't want anything to open:
    Go to your User's Library (now hidden) by pressing the Option key and going to Go in Finder menu. Scroll down to Library and open it. Scroll down to Saved Application State folder. Open that folder and delete every entry. Then hightlight the folder icon and press these keys: Command and I. In the resulting window, scroll down and unlock the lock and enter your password. Scroll up and tick the "locked" option. Then lock the lock by clicking it. Done.
