N95 USB id not recognized if behind two levels usb...

Hi,
I spent a lot of hour, to reconnect my N95 via USB, because, explanation at the end, it seems impossible to connect the phone is there is a HUB between the N95 and the computer (else than the native buitin-the-computer).
Before everything was installed since two years. By accident equipement bluetooth have been destroyed and Windowd XP SP3 installation should have to be redone.
Even I many people that I am a professionnal in informatics, expert in some subjects, I have been lost. I pass on erratics ways, and lost hours to go to the diagnostic : mine :
The USB driver is unable to recognize a N95 (always set to the right USB connection PC-Suite or OBVI)  if it is connected on a second level USB Hub.
as I have only three USB main ports I use two USB (USB2 and USB ... ) on my portable (DELL Latitude D800 and XP SP3)
During installation of PC-Suite or OVI, the soft see the "new usb device", sometimes says 'N95 master...." but never reaches to end the installation : what happends :
- the windows USB detection sees too at the same time (behind the HUB) the new USB device and propose to install it automatically, while PC-suite says "installing" (what ?).
then :
If you don't make anything this can spend as long siecles you want.  
If you say OK to windows : it answers "impossible to install" and later PC-suite say "you have problems with your connection". If you disconnect you N95 you can have the "blue screen on <ousbehci.sys at address F76BE41D based at F76B7000 datestamp 433c099a>
If on windows you answer "cancel" it immediately detects "a new device" and so on... eternally. But it will create for each try an undefined device into the device manager (stopped at 32).
Some times the main N95 is detected and some others are seen but never all the link devices are detected and soft installed you are reconducted to the previous situation.
This as been repeated on clean installations (unistalling part of drivers installed)
If you connect your N95 directly on the first level of HUB it is perfectly installed.
But as my Hub are well alimented and Ucc controlled (7 disks, camera, Micro-cards reader etc...) ir is not a current alimentation problem.
Later when you reconnect your N95 is not detected if it his not connected on the first HUB level (integrated to computer)
So after this bad experience I have one advice to the others users (by security) :
- never install threw a second level HUB
- if after a good installation at a reconnect via an HUB, the 'new USB device found' main USB installer panel appears (if you change of connection this can be normal) but fails, which is not normal, connect directly your phone only on a main USB connection of your computer (and clean your device manager - XP SP3)

im having the same problem i think.  When I plug my bionic into my computer nothing happens on my computer or my phone.  I can't access any files from my computer.  I think I may be stuck in charge only mode but I don't know how to get out of it.  I have tried this on multiple computers.  Anyone know how to fix this?

  • "USB Device Not Recognized. One of the USB devices has malfunctioned..."

    I'm running Windows XP with external hard drive. When hard drive is connected, iPod will not sync and I get message stating "USB Device Not Recognized. One of the USB devices has malfunctioned..."
    When disconnect the external drive, he iPod appears in My Computer. However, iTunes is on external drive; therefore music is not syncing onto iPod. I've attempted the 5 R's as well as searching for iPod in Device Mananger. When iPod is conncected, it is listed in Devce Manage as "Unknown Device."
    I've changed drive letters on boh iPod and external drive and get the same message. Please help.

    QRe: Zen MX Causes "USB Hardware has Malfunctioned" Msg from Windows XpyUhh, Yes.
    I used to same cable to attach my Motorola Razr and the computer correctly found it and identified it as such.
    I also tried another cable (brand new) same thing.
    I went to recovery mode and did a "CLEAN UP" but no dice.
    I also got my I.S. tech guy to look into it and on the USB page it say "UNKNOWN DEVICE"? when he tried to delete it it did not help, it just reappears as "UDVC"? Also in looking into it it seems to have no drivers.
    He came to this site and tried to do somethinm through here but it did'nt work.
    Now in listening to it last night it began to 'skip' or what I call 'HICCUP" terribly. Where a song starts and stops, during the middle of it. ? It's always done it a little but it has been getting more and more common and now? It's WAY worse about it.
    It has never been dropped, or nishandled in any way. I bought the clear hard case to protect it. And only has about 300 songs on it. Never used for anything else. No vids no pics, nothing.

  • USB Device Not Recognized - Palm 700p Verizon

    Hi,
    Yesterday morning I could sync, yesterday afternoon I got the error message "USB Device Not Recognized.  One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it."  Sometimes when I click on the associated error pop-up message, it shows the location of my "unrecognized device" but sometimes nothing shows up.
    I've seen a couple of posts on the web generally about this, but not about the 700p.  I've tried rebooting the computer, tried syncing to a different computer, tried rebooting the phone, and blown out the contacts.  I don't want to buy a new USB cable if I can help it because I'm thinking about getting a Pre anyways (although the fact that I can't seem to use Palm's chat function through either Internet Explorer or Firefox is starting to dissuade me). 
    Anyways, is there anything else I can try to resolve the issue with my 700p or should I just give up?
    Thanks,
    Margaret

    if you already tried your phone and USB cable to a different USB port and computer then the problem could be in either the phone or the cable. if you don't want to buy a new cable because of your plan. maybe you can visit a store near you where you can borrow a cable or PC. at least you trying to make sure which is defective. in cases like this, the cause is the USB cable.

  • "USB Device Not Recognized", and I tried the 5 R's and all that....

    OK, I just got a new shuffle, and my computeris also new. I am using a Dell with Windows Media XP. I also just installed iTunes 7.5.
    Whenever I place the shuffle on the dock the charging light comes on for a few moments, then I get the pop-up message:
    "USB device not recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it. No drivers are installed for this device."
    Then the charging light turns off.
    iTunes does not show any "source" or recognition of the shuffle being attached.
    My sons recieved Scandisk mp3 players and they are both working on my new computer with no issues.
    I did try to remove iTunes from my computer, re-install, and then dock the shuffle again, and got the same results.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    I have experienced the same problems and frustration as many of you with Windows not recogizing the shuffle. Looking to forums, changing drivers, using another computer for answers.
    The shuffle I purchased for my wife did not work with our primary laptop (Windows XP 1.1 usb ports) but it worked successfully with another laptop (same OS and usb version).
    Grasping at straws, I remembered I had a USB extension cable and connected the shuffle usb connection in the extension cable and the extension cable into the usb port of my PC. It worked. It seemed to make a better and more snug connection with my laptop usb port than the usb connection with the shuffle.
    ITunes also recognizes the shuffle. I am curious if this resolves the issues many of you are having.

  • "USB Device Not Recognized" Bubble/ Ipod won't connect to Windows

    Whenever i connect my ipod to my computer the ipod goes to "do not disconnect" and a bubble pops up on my computer saying "USB DEvice Not Recognized" i have switched it to all of my usb ports and unplugged all usbs except for my mouse at the same time. this happens 95% of the time. my ipod does charge while connected and it has only connected to itunes once in the past 2 weeks. im not sure if it is itunes because it started around the time i updated to itunes 7. since it is a windows bubble though i think it is a windows or ipod problem and not itunes. i have a dell that isnt great but works fine.
    thanks for any help.
    ... Go TTU!

    Make that two idiots. My roommate got a Sansa and I decided to try out the cable. Nothing happened. Now suddenly my nano isn't recognized by my computer. I'm glad I read your post, now I can stop looking high and low for a solution. Until this happened it worked good as new.

  • My computer no longer recognizes my 7th Gen iPod Nano. "USB Device not recognized." What can I do to fix this?

    Hi!
    So here's what happened: My nano has been working just fine. I plugged it in this morning to my computer, and it automatically turned on, but instead of charging, it went to play music. I turned it off. However, it did not switch to charging mode. So I unplugged it, and then I plugged it back in. "USB Device not recognized." My iPod won't turn on anymore, and my computer simply does not recognize the nano.
    It may have gotten slightly damp yesterday as it rained a bit when I was walking home (though I kept it covered). When I got home, it proceeded to work for another two hours after that--then I turned it off. And this morning? It doesn't work, as described above.

    Try cleaning the connector on the bottom of the phone. Use a magnifying glass to see what is stuck inside, a dry toothbrush and/or wood or plastic toothpicks (nothing metal). If that doesn't resolve the problem your phone is broken.

  • USB Device Not Recognized - is my iPod toast?

    Got a new computer recently with Win XP. When I try to connect my iPod with a USB adapter I keep getting "USB Device not Recognized" and if I click that I get "Try reconnecting the device. If Windows still does not recognize it, replace the device."
    I can connect other USB devices like my compact flash cards etc. The iPod was working on my old computer.
    Any ideas??
    Thanks in advance for any help!!!

    I had a new ipod and windows wasnt recognizing it or giving me the message "new hardware found" and then telling me the drivers were missing... this is what I did and it fixed my problem.
    1. go to www.driverguide.com and sign up (for free)
    2. download usbstor.sys & usbstor.inf (and take note of where you download them to)
    3. update drivers by selecting folder you downloaded the two files to
    4. restart computer
    5. open itunes and then connect ipod
    good luck

  • USB Device Not Recognized

    Operating system:  Windows Vista
    Error:  USB Device not recognized
    While actively on the computer, we suddenly got a message stating that the USB Device was not recognized.  The only thing plugged in to the USB port was a mouse.  Tried all the ports, same message.  Tried another mouse, same thing.  Tried a thumb drive, and low and behold, 2 of the 3 USB ports worked.  Tried a URL from MS which is supposed to help with this exact problem and possibly fix it:  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Tips-for-solving-problems-with-USB-devices 
    This didn't work.
    Contacted HP support and they wanted me to restore back to a restore point as well as updating my BIOS.  After searching the issue more extensively using Google, I found that several people said to do this:
    Shut down the computer
    Remove the power plug
    Remove the battery
    Put the battery back in
    Power up the computer (without the power plug)
    This forces a hard reset.
    Almost as if by magic, the problem disappeared.  A much simpler and less technical solution to the problem than what HP recommended!!!!

  • TS1369 Hello! I have an Ipod Shuffle 2nd Generation and it is not recognized by my Windows 8 based laptop. An error message of 'USB device not recognized' is shown. I have the latest ITunes version installed, and tested the dock in other pc's.

    Hello!
    I have a problem connecting my Ipod Shuffle 2nd generation to my Windows 8 based laptop. The computer doesn't recognize the Ipod and issues an error message saying 'USB device not recognized'. I tried uninstaling ITunes(latest version) and all other Apple software and reinstaling it back again, checked my USB hubs in the 'Device Manager' section of the Control Panel, you name it.
    I could really use some help solving this.
    I've turned to the troubleshooting section in Apple Support but it has nothing concerning situations in wich the device isn't even shown in the 'My Computer' folder.
    Help a brother out, will you???

    Found a solution in another forum http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-63733-ipod-not-detected-on-computer (a few posts down).
    It was for an IPOD so you can see those details in the link.
    Found how to reset a shuffle and inserted it into these instructions - did not have to follow his last steps.
    - Turn off computer.
    - Plug Shuffle into usb.
    - Then you must reset your shuffle
    To reset iPod shuffle:
    Disconnect iPod shuffle from the computer (if connected).
    Move the switch on the iPod shuffle to the OFF position. Note that when iPod shuffle is off, the green stripe by the switch is not visible
    Disconnect iPod shuffle from the computer (if connected).
    Move the switch on the iPod shuffle to the OFF position. Note that when iPod shuffle is off, the green stripe by the switch is not visible.
    - Start computer and it should install the usb driver for the ipod automatically.
    - Your i pod will say do not unplug so don't. then open itunes and it will be there.
    I did not have to do these thing below – did not get error message and shuffle was displayed in Itunes. / LMc
    Just remember to not only eject ipod from itunes but stop usb.
    Go to the program icons near the clock and right click the usb icon and "safely remove hardware" will appear and click it.
    Stop it and select "apple ipod".

  • USB Device Not Recognized issues

    I have a Qosmio X505-Q860 and I've been getting the 'USB Device Not Recognized' error constantly for several months. I've never plugged anything into any of my USBs and the error is now causing a nice Blue Screen (which happened about 4 times yesterday within 1 hour). I've tried uninstalling the problem USB hub but it keeps telling me that it failed to uninstall (I'm on my administrator account when doing this). How in the world do I get rid of this so my computer stops crashing and driving me crazy!?
    Edit: I should also mention that everything is up to date (I check often and checked just now).
    "A stopped clock is still right twice a day."

    I suggest trying another USB cable. If you are positive that your cable is not the issue then try resetting the iPod and booting into disk mode (Hold menu+select down until Apple logo appears. Then hold menu+play/pause down and the iPod will go into disk mode, see if the computer recognizes it then. If that works then their is either a software issue on the computer or a firmware issue. Worth trying to restore but backup all your iPod's files first!

  • "USB device not recognized" when ipod plugged in???

    (ipod mini 4gb)
    When I plug my ipod into my laptop I get the message: "USB device not recognized." It says the device has malfunctioned!!! If I click on this error message it says my ipod is an unknown device and no drivers are installed for it???
    It was working fine until a few days ago. If i reset it I can charge it up but that's all, it still does not appear in itunes or on my computer.
    I've tried eveything on the help website but nothing works! Can anyone help?!
    patriot 3050   Windows XP  

    ok my question is do you have a mac or windows based laptop
    here is why and what happened to my ipod mini
    my ipod mini was connected to my macintosh charging while i was using my imac and it came up with a system update 10.4.3 i installed it and finished installing it and afterwards my apple wouldn't recongnize my ipod mini or even display it one the screen i found out by myself that when the apple update got to the end of the update it installed new hard drive drivers but also installed the drivers on the ipod mini which locked out the mini's internal hard drive and my mini then stop responding it would play music and charge but wouldn't connect to the computer
    so what i did to fix it was this
    i went into utilites in mac os x tiger or any version of os x has this and selected disk utility you will notice that the ipod will appesr in disk utility but not on the desktop this is due to a recent system update driver that isn't compatible with the internal drive on the ipod mini so in disk utility just select format the drive in a mac os partition standard works the best it will then format the ipod and the ipod will apear in the desktop again but not as a ipod let me explain when you format the ipod using the disk utility it formats and even erases the firmware of of the hard drive on the mini so when you are done formating the ipod run the ipod updater to reinstall the ipod's operating system and presto your ipod will now work again
    warning: i don't know how to fix this on a ipod in windows so if this is a windows based laptop you need to find someone witha macintosh to do this with sorry
