Lumia 1020 isn't recognized by Windows 8.1

I just installed Windows 8.1 and when I plug in my Lumia 1020, it isn't recognized. In Device Manager it shows up under "Other Devices" as "Nokia Lumia 909 (RM-877)". I understand that the 909 and the 1020 are the same so no mystery there. When I right click and tell it to update the drivers, it says that there are no drivers available.
I read in another thread where someone was having a similar problem and powering off the phone and then reconnecting it via the USB cable seemed to cause it to be recognized. I am not having any success doing that. I have gone through the steps listed by Microsoft also without any luck.
I also have a laptop running Windows 7 and my phone is recognized by that computer without any trouble at all. So, I don't *think* it is a hardware problem.
I went so far as to re-install my OS. I patched it, updated the BIOS and didn't connect or install anything else (besides the patches) before connecting my 1020. Once I hooked up my 1020, still nothing. Can't update drivers from the internet or from the downloaded drivers.
What is going on?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Look at other devices that are not loaded correctly. Not the USB
If your operating system did not come with Windows Media Player, install the Media Feature Pack for your version of the operating system.

Use the USB cable that came with the phone.
Connect the phone to the PC. Turn it all the way off, hold power button and slide the screen down. The phone will turn back on and it will be detected, drivers should load.
You should see it in windows explorer. It should install in 'portable devices' in the device manager.

Lumia 1020 is not seen by Windows 7 64-bit

Hi,
When I connect my new Nokai Lumia 1020 to USB, my PC (which is Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate) is not able to install the correct driver.
When I connec the mobile, Windows installs driver for a device named as "RM-875|Nokia 909". It then says "
There is no driver selected for the device information set or element."
I have then updated the mobile's software to the recent version, but with no luck.
I searched Nokia site for a driver and found nothing.
How can I explore Lumia 1020 in Windows 7 64-bit? What can I do to troubleshoot this issue.
Thanks in advance.

5th gen Video 30G isn't recognized by windows XP help!

I have a 30G video with the stock USB that has never had an issue until recently when i got the new iT7. The problem is that the iPod isn't recognized by my computer at all. when i connect it it brights up for two seconds as if i woke it up and then the light shuts off. it's still on but its not recognized. Neither iT or my computer. does anyone have anything to say about this or is having the same problems?
Windows XP

New IPOD. Downloaded SW from web. iT7. Neither computer nor iT will consistently recognize ipod. backlight flashes on and off intermitently, and apparently randomly, when connected. Has "do not disconnect" message most of the time. Reset lasts 1-2 seconds. Need to shut computer down and then go thru ipod reset dance to disconnect and do 5 "R"s again (and again). Could it be a factory bad cable??
Surely not! And..where the heck would I get another to test with...oh, buy one, no doubt? I see a lot of other folks with the same problem. Apple, are you listening?
Jobs, get it done! Anyway, been thru a lot of complaints here and as it says above, problem is NOT resolved.

My ipod shuffle isn't recognized by windows.

When I connect my shuffle to my computer, it runs "autorun" indefinately. I can't run restore to fix it because the updater doesn't recognize the drive. In MyComputer, the drive shows up, but when I click it, MyComputer freezes and I have to use task manager to shut it down. The shuffle won't play any songs at all. I have reloaded iTunes, iPod, and tried everything on the web page. Any suggestions? Help.

Windows XP

Can't say why XP doesn't recognize your Shuffle, but have had experience with the flashing amber light. I purchased the wall charger and the flashing stopped and the Shuffle received a full charge.
Come to think of it I had trouble getting my Win2K machine to recognize the Shuffle. After purchasing the charger there has been no problem having the Shuffle recognized by the computer. This makes me suspect that the problem you're having isn't because of XP, rather it is because your Shuffle isn't sufficiently charged.

5th gen with video Windows XP Pro

I have kinda of the same problem but I think mine is worse. See i just got my new ipod back from the ipod service thing so i plug it into my wall charger first to get it all the way charged before i connect to my comp. After i get it fully charged i go and plug in into my usb device with the apple connector and as soon as i do i get the usb device not recognized, but it gets better at that same time my ipod's backlight wont come on and theres a message on the iPod screen but i cant read it because of the back light is off, then i notice that there is a lowbattery sign on the upper corner(i think it was the right) then it shutsdown and now i cant get it to charge in my wall charger or my computer and it still says usb device not recognized when its plugged in.
And also as a side note it wont even say usb device not recognized when i plug it into the back of my comp its like i didnt even plug it into the back
So if anyone could help me it would be most appreciated, and im shure no one has had this mutch bad luck with an ipod

Old iPod isn't recognized by Windows Vista

Hey Everyone,
My girlfriend has a second generation iPod, which is around 5 years old. She didn't use iTunes before getting a new laptop(which runs Vista), but has now decided to try it out. When I plug in the iPod a message comes up saying "USB Device Not Recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computor has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message." It recommends to reconnect, which I have done, and then it recommends "replacing" the device. She doesn't want to have to get a new iPod if at all possible. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:

Need help! nano isn't recognized by windows!

I hooked my brand new ipod nano up to my computer and it appears to be charging. I have done the 5 Rs one hundred times each. It shows up in the device manager with a yellow question mark and exclamation point. When I plug it in, it makes the little dinging noise, and sometimes asks if I want to install the new hardware, but it can't find the driver to install it. It doesn't appear under My COmputer and if I open iPod updater, it says "plug in an ipod to update it."
I have read that sometimes it needs formatting, but under properties it says it is formatted for windows, and I can't find it in My Computer to format it.
It is recognized by other computers. I'm so frustrated! Whats going wrong?
nano Windows XP

try these steps to format the ipod then restore it with the updater
open computer management
double-click Storage
click Disk Management
choose the ipod in the volumes listed here
right click and hit format
choose fat32 for format
and leave the options unchecked and allocation at default
format
afterwards restore with the updater

BOOTCAMP partition isn't recognized during Windows 7 installation

I am using a 13" Macbook Pro (Mid-2010) model running Mac OS X 10.6.6 and using Boot Camp Assistant 3.0.4 to install Windows 7 Home Premium OEM on my Intel X25-M G2 80GB SSD. The problem I am having is that once I partition my drive and start the Windows 7 install the BOOTCAMP partition I made is not recognized by the install process (or any other partitions on my SSD for that matter). I know that the partitioning worked because when I boot back to OS X it is recognized. At this point I have reformatted the SSD and done a clean install of OS X and I am still encountering the same problem during the Boot Camp process. Has anyone encountered this same problem and found a solution for this extremely frustrating process? Help would be much appreciated!

My guess, and there were threads back when Intel X25-M came out, it is a firmware compatibility issue. I thought by now and with current new units, it was a think of the past.
I'll let you wade through the links, threads, and tips:

The new firmware fixed my issue.
You should contact Intel support for a fix.

If anything, I would 'move' (ie, clone) OS X to another drive. Catch-22: you need Windows usually to apply any firmware update to SSD (and other devices).
80GB is really small. Especially for an SSD and Windows 7 - over provisioning, garbage collection, etc will make for a tight squeeze. Windows 7 on SSD uses 30GB and then there is page file, hibernation, 9GB for SP1 (due soon), and that is moving temp folders to another (mechanical) drive.
80GB = 72GB user partition and you want to leave 20% free for each OS. OS X needs 20-30GB plus free space as well.

Ipod isn't recognized by windows 7 explorer or itunes help!

Okay so it started I was cleaning out my computer in the 'delete programs' section of control panel. I found something called 'asmedia asm104x' it looked rather
suspicious so I deleted it. After that my ipod just suddenly stopped charging from Itunes so I was like "ok thats weird." I looked at itunes and it wasn't found then I looked on Windows explorer and it wasn't there either so then I just thought "Ok I'll restart and see what happens." so I did that and as soon as my computer rebooted my ipod was charging so I felt relieved and then when it got to the windows logo during start up it just stopped charging. So I looked into the issue and checked a bunch of things, I ran diagnostics I tested the cable and usb ports etc... it was all fine I even tested it on my Asus touch screen lap top and it charged there so I looked further into it and narrowed it down to uninstalling Itunes so I did that. TWICE. I cleared everything; I looked all around my computer for itunes related stuff and I'm am 100% sure I deleted EVERYTHING to do with Apple. Then I installed it and Itunes for the second time I opened it everything was still there. I'm really frustrated and I have already looked at almost all the threads about this subject yet they all link back to the one tutorial on how to fix it so please don't just link me to one of the apple tutorials with no information. I want to know whats going and how I can fix it, please tell me if I need this 'asmedia' program and if so what version or whatever. Please help me I am rather desperate.

Googling shows that the "program" is the driver for the USB host controller on your computer.

Ipod shuffle isn't recognized by windows or mac

I have an ipod shuffle and no computer will sees it when i plug it in. I have tried the 5Rs. i tried to restore it but when i open up ipod updater it says it is waiting for the ipod to become ready. I have left it plug in for 5 days so I am pretty sure its not me being impatient. I am really at a loss. I have used ipods since the first generation ipods came out and have always been able to fix my ipod the few times it has gotten confused but this one is really strange.

Hello David.
Unfortunatelly I am experiencing the *very same problem*. Tried the 5Rs as well with no luck at all. Also tried on 5 different computers with clean installs, both from the original disk and up-to-date software -> still unsuccessfull.
When I plug the ipod in any PC the computer reckognizes it ok. I can see it as a disk drive but just can't format or access it. The battery is fine, fully charged and leds are operating normally. Can't play anything though cuz I have deleted all the songs in it last time I accessed it.
I have it for a year and 12 days (yeah, warranty JUST expired) so I won't be able to get ir replaced.
Any hopes?
Did you sort your problem out?
Thanks for ANY HELP.
BTW I managed to try the same computers with another iPodShuffle (from my girlfriend) and the ipod would be mounted just fine. Does this mean my Shuffle has gone potatoes? :-/

Fingerprint isn't recognized for Windows logon

I just recently purchased an HP Pavilion DV6-6c10us. When I first started it up, I went through the standard set-up stuff and entered the fingerprint data needed by Simplepass (2012). Everything seemed to work like it was supposed to. I was able to just swipe my fingerprint to log on to Windows at startup. A couple days ago, possibly after either a Windows or HP update, when I start Windows, and try to swipe a finger a windows security message comes up and reads, "Your fingerprints have not been enrolled for authentication." I click OK and just use my password to log on to Windows. Once I get into windows the fingerprint scanner works fine.
I've checked for any updates for SimplePass, and there aren't any.
In the Control Panel, Biometric Devices area, when I click on "Stop using your fingerprint to log on to Windows", the next window opens and reads, "You have no fingerprint data or logon credentials to remove."
How do I get windows to allow me to enroll a fingerprint to log on to windows?
Please help!

Hi,
Not sure why, but the data is not present means its either deleted or currupt. you may need to register the fingerprint reader to logon to windows one more time.
it may not be the one you expected or like to hear. but i think its the easiest and best possible solution on this.

Nokia Lumia 1020 - did not come with Windows 8 and app is not available on phone

I was told to install Windows Phone Developer Registration Tool, but I get a Setup Blocked message - This product can only be installed on Windows 8 or later 64-bit Machine...the notebook that I am trying to install it on is Windows 8, etc.
I want to load Windows 8 on my phone so I can get Cortana.
Appreciate any responses to help me with this issue.
Thanks...

Welcome to the forum, refsens!
To verify, you're only having this issue with the recorded videos using the Nokia Camera app, is that correct? Since the reset did not work, might as well try using the Nokia Software Recovery Tool: http://www.microsoft.com/en-ie/mobile/support/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA142987 for us to further isolate this issue. By the way, when's the last time you've updated your phone?
Keep us posted!
