Nokia N8 - my device is not recognized by Nokia OV...

I had to update the software recently  Anna 1 & 2 and the optional one through my mobile internet connection as my device failed to get recognized by my laptop (Nokia OVI suite 3.1.1) on which I had downloaded the software update. 
On connecting the USB Cable, my devoice screen shows 3 times to change to Nokia ovi suite and back, and even if I press connect to Ovi suite it just does not connect. It shows the USB as connected and the battery starts getting charged. The laptop shows that only N8 mobile camera is recognized not the N8 phone. The OVI suite also asks the device to be connected and not recognize the N8.   
It is very surprising as the same OVI Suite recognizes my other Nokia models when I tries to connect to my laptop and even wanted to register as my default model!
I took my set to the dealer who made me reformat the device, remove the existing Ovi suite from the laptop and reinstall fresh Nokia Ovi suite, removed all old updates of Nokia updater, PC connection cable software, reinstalled the Anna 1 & 2 on the device and the result is the same.
Can any one help me to connect my N8 and be recognized by the OVI suite in my laptop as I am unable to sync my data and restore all application that has been backe4d up last week  in the main OVI server  from where I need to restore my ovi suite freshly installed in the laptop and from there to my device?

Could you please try Suite 3.2 beta, from Nokia betalabs. If the problem still occurs, then please check if Windows Device Manager reports some error?

  • 8120 Media Sync - "Your device is not recognized by Blackberry Media Sync"

    I got a new (refurbished from ebay) Pearl 8120.  I just downloaded the newest Desktop Manager and Media Sync software.  The Desktop Manager  works fine with the Pearl.  The 8GB microSDHC card was formatted and has worked fine in the phone so far.  However, when I try to use the Media Sync software, I get this error:
    "Your device is not recognized by Blackberry Media Sync.  Please check that
    (1) a memory card is installed correctly in your Blackberry device
    (2) mass storage mode is turned on for your blackberry device."
    I have checked both these things.  I have tried running the program in XP compatibility mode and as administrator.  Also, my computer doesn't recognize the phone as a mass storage device (is it supposed to?).  I can always use my card reader to put files on my card, but I'd like to be able to use the Media Sync software.
    My OS is version 4.5.0.124
    edit: Now it sometimes tells me "You need to turn on mass storage mode from the connected Blackberry Device and click Retry.  This may require you to reconnect your device."
    In my settings I have Mass Storage Mode Support: On.  Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected: Yes.
    I've reconnected the device and everything.  I've reloaded the card and restarted the phone.  Media Sync still gives me errors and Windows still doesn't see the phone as a mass storage device.

    Hi, a simple solution is to take out humbly your previous phone from the closet (or thrashbin), put the microSD card into it and connect it to PC again. And you thought you would never use it again once you have that "awesome" Blackberry... :-)
    I did this with my Nokia 6120. Also works with any standard microSD reader.

  • My 120GB IPod classic is not recognized by my Windows 7 PC.  When I plug the ipod into my computer I receive a message saying that the USD device is not recognized.

    My 120GB IPod classic is not recognized by my Windows 7 PC.  When I plug the ipod into my computer I receive a message saying that the USD device is not recognized.  The Device Manager lists it as an Unknown Device.  I've tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it, but it had no affect.  The odd thing is that our other iPod (160 GB Classic) is recognized on the same computer using the same USB cable.  When I plug the ipod in question into another PC, the PC seems to recognize the iPod and lists it in Windows Explorer (iTunes is not installed on this machine).  There seems to be something out of wack with this PC/iPod combo.  Any thoughts on what I can do to try to resolve this issue?  I tried all of the steps listed here, but they didn't help me.  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    At present I have no power to the Gen 7, so need to get some power to it I think.  I pressed the buttons as you suggested, but nothing is showing up at this point.  Thank you for your response as the more I can rule out before  I take it back the better I think.
