MacBook Pro - USB Hub power exceeded / Lost TrackPad / iSight

Hello
I have an older 17 inch MacBook Pro - Windows XP
Generic USB HUB , 1 of three is not working
Marked with a yellow exclamation mark in Hardware explorer in Windows
Tried dropping the driver etc
When I insert just a USB memory stick - says USB power exceeded
Lost touchpad and iSight camera as well
Logic Board ?

The keyboard is a hit-or-miss proposition for mounting thumb drives. I've found that some brands of drives are more sensitive to this than others. Does the drive work when you plug into the back of the iMac?

USB HUB POWER EXCEEDED (with mid 2007 iMac keyboard)

When I connect any USB 2.0 device in the keyboard USB port, windows vista (XP too) shows the follow message:
"USB Hub power exceeded"
But when I use the same kind of USB hardware with MAC OS they just run fine, with no errors!
Is there any way to bypass or correct this error in Windows?

Here's the basic XP troubleshooting document (from Microsoft) for that one:
One or more USB devices may not work after you start your Windows XP-based computer
But I've also seen it produced when a high-power USB device is connected to a low power USB port.
Are the keyboard USB ports on the iMac low power or high power?

MacBook Pro USB Hubs no longer working

Hello Apple Support.
My 13" Mid 2012 MacBook Pro (Running OSX Mavericks) is having some odd issues recently. I have 2 USB 3.0 hubs. One of them works perfectly fine, the other doesn't work at all. I've plugged everything from mice to USBS's, but the computer doesn't recognise them nor show up in the System Report (Apple>About this Mac>More Info>System Report>Hardware>USB)
I have already tried resetting the PRAM/VRAM to no avail.
I stumbled across this problem as I have previously bootcamped my mac with Windows 7 Ultimate. However when I woke up I saw that my corded mouse was not working. I restarted my MacBook Pro into OS X, and identified that 1 one of USB ports is faulty, the other perfectly fine.
Yes, I have tried restarting (it was the first thing I did), but the problem persisted.
Could it be a physical problem? What should I do now?
Regards
Andrew

If you have Apple Care, take full advantage of it before you lose it. Otherwise, take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP if the suggestions here do not help.

Macbook Pro,USB Hub, Maschine, USB Turntable, Audio Interface

So I have a MacBook pro 13 inch. I'm also using Maschine and a USB turntable to sample from. My problem is I want a USB audio interface so that the audio comes out clearer on these KRK Monitors I have. If I get a USB hub will I be able to use the midi options with the hub using Maschine or have audio going in and out of the same hub with an audio interface? Please help

I get the same type of problem with my usb hub when my usb3-enabled hard drives are connected, but not all the time.
Without the usb hub i never have a problem, which seems like the hub is the problem.
Things started to happen when I started using usb3-capable hard drives

This didn't work for me, so I did a bit of searching and TONS of pages later in google, I found an answer. Here are the steps for people who also were in my situation:
1. Take off bottom case
2. Unplug battery - blurry image here: http://i.ytimg.com/vi/03cC79r5Dx4/0.jpg
3. Press and hold power button for 5 seconds
4. Plug a charger in, and it should start booting up
5. After shutting down again, reconnect the battery and close the case up
6. It works! (hopefully, if you guys had the same situation I did)

I have a MacBook pro that has power issues and will not start but the hardrive is fine. I do not want to lose all of my files so I was wondering if it's possible to transfer my hardrive from a older Macbook pro to a new one if I were to purchase a new one? Also, the software is not updated as the computer hasn't worked for about 2 months.
Also, if it is possible to transfer the hardrive, would my iTunes music transfer as well? It is not saved in the cloud.
Thanks for your help, it is much appreciated.

You computer is probably perfectly repairable, but if you want a new one anyway, it is perfectly possible to transfer the data from the faulty one.
But it would be a mistake to simply put the old HD in the new computer.
These are the steps:
Remove Hard drive from faulty computer. (very easy on Unibody MBPs, do-able but not so easy on older MBPs)
Put it in a cheap enclosure
Connect it the new computer
Boot up new computer.
If the new computer has never been run before the Setup Assistant will ask if you want to import your apps, data, settings etc from either another mac, another HD connected to the Mac or a Time Machine back up.
Obviously chose the second option (another HD connected to this Mac) and follow prompts.
If the new computer has already been run (so Setup Assistant doesn't run when you boot it up), you will need to use Migration Assistant...or run the installer again so that Setup Assistant runs again.

Where can I download a macbook pro install dvd for my Macbook pro 2.2 because i lost mine...

Where can I download a macbook pro install dvd for my Macbook pro 2.2 because i lost mine...

I don't think you can actually download the install DVD. If you call Apple they can send you the install DVD for a nominal fee +S&H. You will need to provide them with the serial number for your Mac to see if it's registered to you.

My MacBook Pro got wet and I lost all of my childs photos from the day she was born. Is there anyway I could get these pictures back from my iCloud? I actually care more for getting the photos back than I do my laptop. Please help! Thank you!

Welcome to the Apple community khnkOliver.
I assume these photos, or at least not all of them weren't in photo stream.
You should be able to recover your photos from a back up.

My sister spoiled water into my macbook pro and the power went off in two seconds. I took off the cover and dried the water with tissues. Still it doesnt work. What do i do?

Do you mean when the water was spilled on it, it shut down? That would indicate a major internal short occured.
Really, I'd say you need to take it into Apple or an Apple authorized repair center and get it looked at. Odds are you've got a significantly damaged device that will require professional repair and parts replacement to get working again.

Sleep light is on but MacBook pro will not power up

Sleep light is on but MacBook pro will not power up

Hi a,
If the sleep light is already on when you try to start up, that means the MBP isn't shut down, so cannot start up. Hold down the power button for 5-10 seconds to shut it down, then try starting up.

Would it be bad if i left my Macbook Pro on the power supply constantly?

I wanted to know if there was any bad that comes out of leaving my Macbook Pro on its power supply and charging 24/7?

Yes. Do not do that.
http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html
If for some reason you want your MBP to be up and running all the time, plug in the charger but remove the battery. That's how they do it in the Apple Retail Stores. Before removing the battery, run the computer without the charger attached until the battery is about 50% charged. That will maximize its useful life while it remains in storage.

Usb hub power surge

Hi, can anybody help me on why one of my usb port appears " usb hub power surge" is there a way to replace this usb?
Thanks
Mandum

I have the same problem with my Portege T210 which I just bought barely a week ago.
Now my USB hubs and my touchpad is totally out of use.
I wonder if it is because the power voltage incompatability? I am in Malaysia, so it's about 240V, and at the back of the laptop it says DC 19V - 2.37A (what does this mean?)
Mandum, I hope you can tell me whether someone resolved this issue for you.

HT3964 MacBook Pro will not power

My MacBook Pro will not power on. It was charged and then just shut off and power cord does not even light up. How do I fix this?

jpg8,
which model MacBook Pro do you have, and which version of OS X is installed on it?

Macbook pro goes into power save mode with dell sp2208wfp monitor.

I have a macbook pro and am trying to connect it to a dell sp2208wfp monitor, I am using a hdmi cord and it goes straight to power save mode. My mac works on my roommates monitor and his PC works on my monitor but my mac doesn't work on my monitor. I've read the other forums and have found nothing. One guy suggested plugging the mac into a power source still nothing, any solutions before I try and sell this thing on craigslist?

Had the same issue a few months ago when I tried connecting to external monitor, it is only possible to run external displays from a Macbook Pro while the power cable is attached, if you try and connect to external display without having the charger attached the external display will flash your desk top for a second and then your Macbook Pro will go to sleep. Hence connect your charger every time you wish to connect to external display, its not a problem with your Macbook Pro, it's just the way of Apple. Hope that helps.
