New wdtv, 1.02.17, cannot detect usb-device

Have had wdtv for years. Small to no problems. Use only external harddrive, no streaming at all. Bought a new wdtv for daughter the other day. First thing noticed is new GUI (the old one was better). But ok. The other thing is that the wd my book or the wd my passport is not detected. Waited for several minutes, in case the new wdtv was slow. Nothing happened. Tried the old one (same chassis but onother gui), 1.12.14. Both usb-devices detected at once. Is it something I am missing? I have used wdtv for years, since 1. generation, only for usb-connection. Have had almost no problems (use apple-tv for streaming Thanks

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

Cannot recognize usb device

When i plug my Iphone 3G in to my XP Windows computer I get the error message "Cannot Recognize Usb Device" it only happens with this phone as I have a Iphone 4 and my computer recognizes it straight away.
can anyboby help plz?

Have you tried other USB ports? It has to be USB 2.0, the other thing you might do is reset the router and computer - by turning off computer, unplug computer and unplug router, after about 30 seconds plug them back in and turn the computer on.
I walked 4 customers through this yesterday and it worked each time.

How to detect USB device drives

Hi
I want to write a program which will detect the drive letter when a usb device is plugged in. i.e., if a usb device is plugged in and the drive letter is "F:", then my program will instantly detect the presense of the device as well as get the drive letter. How's that possible in Java?
Thanx in advance
Regards
Mathew

Well if you're looking for the newUSBDriveListener API you're out of luck.
There is no way to do what you are looking for in a number of ways.
1) If something is listed as a drive the best you can now (from FileSystemView) is that it's a drive.
2) There isn't "new drive/or device added" event API.
So what you would have to do is when your program starts get the list of roots. Then poll at some intervals to get the list of roots and see if there are changes. If new drives show up then they show up.I agree!!!

Detecting USB Device insertion/removal

Hi All,
With reference the an earlier post by softengr (here), I'm trying to detect the USB devices while being connected.
I'm trying to compile the same code posted by softengr, but getting some compilation error even after adding windows.h.
I think I'm missing some header file here.
The following are the errors during compilation;
Undeclared identifier 'DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE'.
Undeclared identifier 'NotificationFilter'.
Undeclared identifier 'GUID_DEVINTERFACE_USB_DEVICE'.
Undeclared identifier 'GUID_CLASS_USB_DEVICE'.
I'm using LabWindows/CVI 2012 with Windows7 64bit.
Can anybody suggest waht am i doing wrong here.
Thankyou,
Dosth

Program to automatically detect usb device

Dear labview users,
                                   I wanna build a program such that when a USB device (pen drive/ memory stick) is connected to a PC, it has to detect the device and prompt the user to provide a password and then only the user gets the accessbility to open the memory stick. This is mainly for security purpose of the PC, such that in no condition without the programmer's knowledge no one should transport the data from the PC.
                                   To add more to the program, this labview program should be run in the background in all the time in the sense that even the labview program is triggered by the user or not, it has to run all the time in background without anybody's intervention. when a memory stick is connected it has to prompt the password.
                                    Is this possible in labview, Iam using labview 8.0. If anybody gets solution to this young chap's idea please response to this query.
Labview lovers.....

Hi Shivkumar,
Would it be acceptable for the entire PC to be in a way "locked down" untill a password is entered once a pen drive is detected? Or would you simply want the password dialog to pop-up when they try to double click on the actual drive under "My Computer" to access the data? Also, if the password is not entered but the pen drive is remove, should the password dialog box disappear?
Best regards,
Steven

Problem with detecting USB devices.. something abt ehci-hcd??

Hi All,
I have a DELL E6410 laptop. I have a problem with connecting USB devices.
Whenever a power event (such as connecting/disconnecting of AC adaptor) happens, my laptop stops detecting any USB devices and any changes that happen on the USB ports. That is, say an external mouse is connected to the laptop, the mouse stops functioning, and if I connect a mouse/USB_stick or any such thing to the computer, the device is not detected.
dmesg output show that any connecting/disconnecting events are not detected by the computer. lsusb output too shows the same thing.
To solve the problem, I need to rmmod the module ehci-hcd and modprobe it back. That is, I have to run the commands rmmod ehci-hcd followed by modprobe ehci-hcd. Then, this problem goes away until the next power event happens.
This event does not happen all the time, but it happens very regularly.
Here are the kernel and laptop specs..
uname -a
Linux myhost 3.0-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Aug 30 08:53:25 CEST 2011 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 520 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
Kindly help me on this issue.
Thanks

This is the output of kernel.log when I unplug my AC adaptor with the external USB mouse connected.
Sep 12 11:18:33 localh ost kernel: [ 591.015557] EXT4-fs (sda6): re-mounted. Opts: commit=600

After this the the mouse goes dead (the light on the mouse also goes off).
If I disconnect the mouse at this stage, there is no change in kernel.log. If I the mouse back too, there is no change in kernel.log.
Now, when I turn the AC adaptor on, this is the output on kernel.log

The output of the grep command that rwd gave is too big (16000 lines) to be pasted here..

Cannot unmount USB device

I have an Archos AV5100 connected to my Mac via USB, however whenever I try and "eject" it, after a few seconds, it comes back. If I disconnect it, I get a warning telling me I may have corrupted files on my USB device.
The only workaround I have at the moment is to shut down my Mac when I want to disconnect my Archos, but this is not satisfactory.
Is the problem with the Mac or the Archos? If it's the Archos, I'm probably screwed, as (like many companies) they won't support Macs.

After you disconnect it and get the warning, are
there, in fact, any further problems with it? The
warning is dire, but if the data on the Archos
remains stable, this may be something you will just
have to live with.
Well, there aren't any problems that I know of so far. Archos have been no help whatsoever, simply telling me in their first response to disconnect the Archos as per the instructions (which I already told them I was doing) and their second response was barely understandable,
"This problem comes from the USB controller on Mac OS X. What you need to do is to terminate the USB connexion son the Terminal, or via the "Suspend Application" application.[sic]". Very helpful.
The reason I am concerned is that as soon as I click on the eject icon for the AV500 or drag it to the Trash, the red light on the AV500 (that indicates disk read/write activity) starts flickering away and before it has stopped, the AV500 icon has reappeared on the desktop.

USB Ports on HP G60-230US Notebook Not Detecting USB Devices

I've had an HP G60-230US Notebook PC for about three and a half years now, and all of a sudden tonight my USB ports decided to all stop working. I first noticed it when I tried to hook up my iPod to sync it and it didn't show up in iTunes. I unplugged my wireless mouse to see if the other USB port would work with no luck, and when I plugged my wireless mouse back in it wasn't detected either. I tried restarting my computer twice to see if that would take care of the problem but it didn't.
My notebook currently runs Windows Vista. On a normal day I'll have my external harddrive (WD My Passport Essential 500 GB), my wireless mouse (Microsoft Wireless Mobile 3500) and my Targus Chillmat with 4 USB hubs in the back plugged into my 3 USB ports. My printer is usually plugged into one of the Chillmat's USB ports. When I want to sync my iPod I usually unplug the Chillmat because none of the USB hubs on it will detect the iPod. At the moment my wireless mouse will still work if I leave it plugged into its USB port when I restart my computer, and all the chillmat is doing is cooling my laptop down.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

You may have exceeded the available power capacity of the USB ports in your notebook PC too many times. That can result in non functioning (forever) ports. That is the specific reason that I recommend only using externally powered USB hubs.
You can check the current carrying capacity of the USB ports and see how much they are using via the device manager.
Open Device Manager and then right-click a USB root hub. Select properties and then the Power tab.
This particular system has many ports available.

New iMac 27" won't reboot with USB devices attached

I have a 3 day old 27" iMac, that I dearly love. However, I noticed when I reboot and I have any external HD's attached via USB, it will not reboot. It gets to the white screen and hangs. I can pull them out and hit the power switch and it will boot normally. Any suggestions?

I have had my 27" I7 iMac for less than 24 hours and after several attempts at migrating my home folder and applications from my 3 year old iMac 24" running 10.6.2, I am having the same problem with the white screen.
When I finished migrating all my stuff, I hooked up my D-Link 7 port powered hub that has 2 250Mb drives and 1 500Mb dive (for Time Machine) to the new machine and it just hangs on the white screen.
I have to press the power button on the back to shut down and when I restart it just hangs, so I removed the one cable (for my D-Link) from the back of the iMac and it would boot as normal. When it boots I can then plug my D-Link back in and all is OK.
I don't think this has anything to do with the disk format as this setup worked perfectly from my 24" imac, never once froze.
Not sure how to get round this as it's going to be a real pain to have to remove the usb cable every time I want to boot up.

Cannot install USB device, install wizard freezes when installing SiLib.sys

Hello,
I have installed LabView and all the software required for running a program for tremor evaluation. When I plug a TremorScope via USB connection it starts Hardware Installation wizard, but the installation does not complete and system freezes when installing SiLib.sys. The OS is Windows XP.
Do you have any solution how to finish the installation or what is going wrong. Thank you for your help.

Why don't you ask the vendor of the device? It does not have anything to do with LabVIEW.
