Mobile phone not being recognised via USB port

A few days ago I plugged my Motorola V3x phone into a USB port to download some pictures and was presented with some Windows to fill out some information. As I could not complete the operation at that time I closed the windows to retry at a later date. But now when I plug the phone into the USB port it is not recognised and there is on icon appearing on the desktop indicating that a USB has been plugged in. If I plug other devices into the USB ports they are recognised. Any ideas?

For the phone to appear on the desktop when plugged in via USB you need to use USB Mass Storage mode (or whatever Nokia call it) not Media Transfer.
For iSync you need to download the E71 iSync Plugin from the Nokia web-site:

  • USB Audio CODEC not being recognised.

    Hello,
    I have my my Wharfedale 802 mixer plugged into my MAC Mini (late 2012),  Processor - 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5, Memory - 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, via USB however it is not being recognised as USB audio CODEC what so ever. I have also tried searching for this to set the outputs in Logic and it is not recognised there either.
    I have just updated my iOS to Yosemite 10.10.2 and also my Logic X does anybody know why my mac is not recognising my USB audio CODEC for an input or output?
    Please help.
    Thanks

    I just posted this problem I had also. The USB audio Codec is for PPC macs only. I couldnt get a PYLE USB cassette deck to work in AUDACITY because it needed that codec.Windows users use this codec for many devices including the one you are trying to connect.
    My post in Snow leopard forum:
    I have come to the conclusion that this codec only worked on Macs that used PPC chips,not Intel Macs.Apple must have dropped it when switching to Intel.No where on the net can I find anything about this codec on newer mac OS's and newer Macs.
    Judging from this user's comment and others,they are working with OSX10.4 or newer OS that has PPC support like the first Mac Pro and other PPC's.I think the comments below answer my own original question.Hope this helps anyone with the same kind of problem with USB devices that need USB audio CODEC.
    In Audacity prefs, I selected:
    "USB Audio CODEC" for both Input and playback.
    I even tried lower sample rates and such. Record button stays grey and readouts don't show any input whatsoever even though I am sending a signal.
    Mac is a 533Ghz g4 (Digitial audio) running 10.4.11
    It is plug into a USB port on back of machine.

  • My iphone 4s is being used on car stereo via usb port.

    my iphone 4s is being used on car stereo via usb port on the old ios system it would play music and when you turned the the stereo off would play where you stopped it i have the settings in itunes on shuffle all and repeat all , since the update to iOs7 all it does now is return you to the first song in the A play list and not where you left it. i have even seen it happen was looking at screen and had song in middle of song and turn stereo on and hey presto back to the being of the A's.
    it was fine until update has something changed in working of itunes on phone

    Manual push and fetch will not use internet. The problem may lie with the new maps integration - it is constantly getting information wherever you are.

    had this problem after doing a hard reset on my x6, pc suite and ovi suite would not recognise phone.
    The solution above worked great although i had to restart the pc after repairing drivers for it to connect.
    reason for hard reset was because the screen kept going all washed out/scrambled every now and then tho could get it back to normal after playing with lock button. hard reset did not fix this issue which i am still having.

  • My ipod touch 4g is not being recognised on my new toshiba laptop. The ipod touch starts charging then stops. This keeps continuing. Please help.

    my ipod touch 4g is not being recognised on my new toshiba laptop or itunes. Its not being shown on my computer and its not shown as 'unspecified' in the 'devices window'. The ipod touch starts charging then stops this keeps continuing like a ongoing circle. Please help.
    I have tried on my family members laptop and its seems to be picking up. So the ipod or the usb wire is not the issue.
    I have tried everything from reinstalling itunes and updating windows.
    I have tried the diagnostics test and its still says the ipod cannot be found.

    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:

    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • New imac doesn't locate old imac hard drive via usb port

    I have an old iMac from ~2006 that recently stopped reading the harddrive.  I pulled the HD out and connected it to my new imac via USB port but I can't locate it.  The HD spins/powers up so I know the connector is strong enough to supply power.  We connected it to my husband's PC and he can see that there is a harddrive but cannot see any files to read.  He even tried Catacombe to try to read files but it didn't work.  My first issue is how can I locate my HD on the new mac?  But the main issue is how can I pull data/pictures off of the old harddrive and import them to my new computer.  I don't hear any clicking sounds from the harddrive so it seems to be working.  I can't reformat it because I don't want to lose the pictures on it.  I don't need the old harddrive to work/write.  I just need to pull the information off of it.  TIA.

    I was not familiar with catacombae , but now I am .
    You have a problem with either a corrupt file system on the hd or a hardware problem with the hd.  I'd say try mounting in disk utility.  Try reparing filesystem on hd.  Try one of the disk repair utilities.  Some have a free trail that let's you know if they can do anything.  You pay to get the data.  Seek profession help.  Pay $$$.

  • Iphone 3gs not being recognised by Itunes 10.1.2 on my Imac

    Hi all,
    This seems to be a common problem but all the posts that say they have succeeded don't work on mine. My problem started when my iphone was not being recognised. I did everything re-installed itunes, restarted computer etc and I finally went into DFU mode. Itunes recognised then but said it needed to be restored. At wits end i did this, now i have no phone as itunes wiped everything but since it wont recognise it again i cant get the phone past the connect to itunes/emergency call screen. I also tried deleting the file "com.apple.usbmuxd.plist~orig" but i cant seem to find it where they said it would be. If i can find this file apparently this will help me but it simply not there.
    Really hope that someone might have an answer that will work for me because i really need my cell phone back
    P.S I have the latest itunes and Mac OS X 10.6.6

    In this article about your device not being recognized in OSX, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 ,it is mentioned, that
    In some cases, you may need to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.
    So give it a try.

  • Ipod not being recognised, but with a twist

    Hi,
    My ipod nano 5th Gen is not being recognised on my computer. It is now being recognised by the computer itself sometimes, but not itunes. However, when I plug my ipod into my partners laptop, its fine. More to the point, when they plug their's into my laptop, it recognises them. To me, this suggests that both my laptop and my ipod, individually at least, are working.
    I have been through the ipod support page, and gone through all the steps, and to no avail.
    Final details. I'm Windows 8, and my itunes is totally up to date. I have re-installed iTunes, and have reset my ipod to factory settings on another computer. It still doesn't work, please help if you know anything about this!!
    Cheers,
    Ralf

    I have the same issues. itunes 5.0.1.4 doesn't recognize my mini. ipod updater doesn't recognize my mini either. i have uninstalled itunes 5 and reinstalled 4.9, but it didn't work still. something in itunes 5 changed something in my system that reinstalling 4.9 doesn't fix it. updater just shows that i have no ipod connected. if i try to get updater to check for my ipod during the updater installatin, it just sits there and says "waiting for ipod". it's not my usb port because i can read and write to my ipod. i did the entire list of chores that apple suggests on the site including disabling all other functions and services, reinstalling the com port, uninstalling everything, reinstalling everything, getting windows install clean up, e v e r y t h i n g! nothing worked.
    I then installed itunes 4.9 and updater 1.4 in my other laptop. i was able to update to firmware 1.4 using that computer. when i put the ipod into that computer w/ itunes 4.9, everything works fine. of course, it asks me if i want to link that laptop w/ my ipod. i said no, because i want to use my original laptop w/ the ipod.
    anybody have a solution for this? it's like we all have the same symptoms and going to the same doctor and we end up having to diagnose ourselves. this is extremely annyoying and inefficient.

  • IPhone 3G not charging and not being recognised by PC

    I plugged my iPhone 3G into my laptop today to charge it, as the battery was extremely low and for some reason, it's not being recognised by my computer at all, and it's not charging at all.
    I've tried plugging it into a powerpoint in the wall as well, and it still doesn't charge.
    I plugged my iPod into my computer with the same USB cable, and it worked fine.
    If I hold in the power button at the top, the battery picture comes up with a tiny bit of red in it and the power cable -> charge pictures come up underneath, then the screen just goes black again.
    I've never had this problem before, so I'm not sure what to do.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I had the same problem after the upgrade, but think I may have a solution. The problem doesn't seem to be that the phone isn't charging, it's that the indicator isn't showing that it has charged. Try this:
    1. Plug into the wall socket.
    2. Push and hold the power button, you should get a "slide to turn off" kind of message -- do it.
    3. Let the phone power off, and leave it that way for a slow count of ten.
    4. Turn it back on by pushing and holding the power button -- you'll get that black screen with the apple logo, don't panic, it just takes a minute to power up, you haven't lost anything.
    When it came on, the indicator showed it was fully charged from the night before. My concern is that the indicator got hosed by the upgrade.
    Try that out, let me know if it works -- and at your own risk. It worked for me as written, but I can't guarantee that will do the trick or not wipe your phone. I don't think so, it seems innocuous enough, just wanted to make sure you're aware there could be another resynch needed if it does do something else for you.
