  • USB 3.0 - WD Passport 1 GB not recognized by Windows 8 and 8.1

    My USB 3.0 - WD Passport 1 GB not recognized by Windows 8 and 8.1. There is no sound when I plug it on pc or some error message. But other USB devices works well. Maybe there is not suitable drivers for this device? Please Help me!

    Hi azeripatriot,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it is a great place to find answers.
    For you to have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I understand that when you connect your passport drive it does not auto install.  Does the power  light on the passport drive come on?  What is the error message you receive?
    Have you checked for any Windows updates?
    You can run The HP Support Assistant to help with resolving issues and looking for updates.
    If you believe it is a driver issue, you can download the software and drivers from the WD website. Here is the link WD download for passport drives.  If you  connect it to a different computer, does it install?  They also have a diagnostic tool for testing the drives.  Here is a link to their diagnostic tool .Western Digital Data Lifeguard diagnostics for Windows.
    If this has not alleviated the issue, would you please provide your exact model of computer and the operating system you are running. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? 
    Would you also provide the exact error you get when connecting the passport.

  • IPhone 3G plugged into PC(Windows 7) 'USB is Not Recognized' and unable to restore; stuck on 'Connect to iTunes'

    iPhone 3G plugged into PC(Windows 7) 'USB is Not Recognized' and unable to restore; stuck on 'Connect to iTunes'
    I was in the process of putting another firmware for my iPhone(an .ipsw via. itunes) and the house had a power cut. The computer was in the middle of restoring the iPhone but never finished. The apple logo came on and then came onto the 'connect to itunes' screen. My sim card was in but there is no option to slide for emergency. When I Plug it into my computer, a message pops up saying that the 'USB Device Not Recognized', I've tried to plugging my iPhone into my laptop and other Computers but the same message occurs (all windows 7). Other articles say that the error is with the iPhone, I need help!! Can anybody offer some advice on what to do?
    oh yeah, bit tight so not willing to spend any money;-)

    Recently, iTunes upgraded.  My 7th generation iPod is now not recognized and I cannot sync.  The troubleshooting talks  about being visible in Windows (iPod is invisible)  No other options and nothing about windows 8

    I have had similar issues with mine, happens mainly if I transfer songs and then decide to disconnect my iPod to listen to them with my IEMs (I use Interenet Explorer in my case and it is not neccessarely up when this happens, so I seriously doubt it is an issue conencted to the web browser). I have no patience for this so my trick is I try to eject it from iTunes, if that does not work, then I bring Windows explorer up, right mouse click on the iPod mounted drive and select Eject. It gives me the same warning but there is a third button selection called Continue. When I choose that it just disconnets the drive anyway and the iPod is finally disconnected. It seems to work each and every time I do it so this solution is fine for me. Would be intersting to see what the real root cause of this is because I started getting this problem with the newer iTunes 11.

  • Itouch - USB device not recognized and Itouch now no longer works

    I'm now on my 3rd Itouch since December all due to the same problem. All seemed to be going well with my 3rd replacement Itouch. Having loaded most of my cd collection into ITunes the night before I was going on holiday I synced my Itouch. Some sort of automatic download took place I think from Microsoft and suggested my drivers were being updated. Next thing I got message to restore my Itouch to factory settings. I did this and all the problems I had with my previou Itouch's started again.
    When I now plug my Itouch into my laptop it says "USB device not recognized" and the Itouch will not switch on. I've done everything including reinstalling Itunes, holding down the power and home key but to no avail. Looks like I'm going to have to send my Itouch back again. I have a suspicion that a Microsoft download is corrupting the drivers. If anyone can help I would be very grateful. I really like my Itouch but the fact it keeps failing leads me to wonder if I should opt for something else.

    I had success with the holding down the keys and connecting to usb and using itunes to restore firmware like they show here

  • I have an Iphone 5S and used to sync it to my computer in the past without any problem, but now I can't and appears the message "usb device not recognized", and the cable is good and so the USB port. Do you have any idea what's the problem?

    Try leaving it plugged in and then restart the computer.

  • Iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update.  I have done all trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail.

    iphone 4 not recognized and will not sync after latest itunes update.  I have done recommendedl trouble shooting and uninstalled and reinstalled itunes to no avail. Can I go back to earlier version of itunes or restore computer to fix?

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • IPod touch 4th gen is not recognized and will not charge. Tried 3 cords. Help!

    We have tried updating, restarting both the iPod and the Mac, 3 cords and 3 different connecting sights (computer, car, and treadmill).  Not recognized and not charging. 

    - See:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable
    - Try another charging source
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

  • Shuffle not recognized and can't restore

    I recently "Up"grade to itunes 7.0. Now my shuffle is not recognized and it's telling me to restore. When I try to restore it's telling me the software is not found. When I go to the apple site to download the software it tells me the ipod resource was not found. Any thoughts...
    Help, please.

    I have always had this problem it has never ever synched. I feel i have wasted my money. I have to bother some one else if I want to change the songs. Kinda pointless. There is something to be said about the old days of popping a tape in recording music and poping it straight in ur walkman w out all the bs and sometimes I still do. I dont need all the bells & whistles of Music videos & all the other "benefits" they offer. If they really are "cool" this would be a non issue. Half the time my computer won't open programs. If I had wanted something that requires so much babysitting I would have bought a pc for a quarter of the price and w out the slick marketing campaign and i dont care if it is an ipod or any mp3 player, I just want it to function w out the BS. I dont care what it is called as long as it works w out the bs. I need functionality. When music was about music and nothing else. Thanks. I recieved a notice from Tekserve, the only Apple retailer in NYC until last year, saying "Sorry for the short notice, but you have 2 weeks to register for Applecare and it will cost you $150" At the time I did not have the money or time. So far I feel Mac is for middle class & rich people w alot of time & money to spare. I slaved in restaurants to buy this pc etc not to mention lost my job because my work was forced to close because of 9/11, used my savings and had to start again, and it has added up to a glorified internet connection.
