One of my usb ports in not working
On my compaq presario v5000, os xp media center, the bottom usb port is not working. When i plug a thumb drive in, it does not reconize it. The mouse lights up but does not work. It shows up in device manager and says it is working properly. The other port works fine. Just reinstalled windows and the computer is completely up to date with all the service packs etc. Have tried unpluging and restarting to no avail. Have tried updating but says it cannot find a better driver. Please Help. Thank you.
Could you please give me the exact model number of your notebook?

One of my USB ports is not working
Hello,
I just found out that one of my USB ports on my MacBook Pro (Early 2011) is not working. I usually use only one USB port to connect my external hard drive but when I wanted to connect my mobile phone and external hard drive at the same time, I noticed that my phone was not detected but it was charging. To confirm that there was someting wrong, I swapped the mobile phone with my external hard drive and what I found out was the indicator light on my external hard drive lights up but it was not detected by the MacBook. The other port works just fine.
Does anybody know what is wrong with the USB port and what should I do?
p/s: I bought my MBP in Malaysia early September and now I am studying in India.After I went through the Apple Support Community, I tried the easiest and simplest suggestion first: restart my MacBook. Well I did it and the USB port seems to be working again and it reads my pendrive. Hope it will stay that way and never go wrong again. I really don't like going to Apple store because none is nearby.
Thanks for the reply by the way. -
one of usb port in my macbook pro havent work after i ve updated latest security update for osx 10.7.5, how do i know what is cause that usb port is good or bad
On a Mac running v10.7.2, the only way to reinstall Safari is to reinstall OS X using OS X Recovery.
Safari 5.1.1 is for Snow Leopard. It will not run on a Mac with v10.7 installed. -
1 of my USB ports is not working. Help?
Suddenly one of my USB ports is not working. No matter what I plug into it, it doesn't work. Any help or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
Not in the one that's ailing, but it does in the other one. I've also plugged in an external USB hard drive and that doesn't connect. Also a mouse's USB dongle and that doesn't work in the ailing one, but is fine in the other one.
I've also tried ( a couple of times ) to simple reboot hoping that would jog it, but that doesn't seem to help either. -
i plugged in my ipod and now i get the error message: Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled" - i have a MAcBook pro and now my USB ports do not work - can anyone help me ???
Sometimes you have to reset the SMC two or three times for it to work, don't know why. I've seen that error message before and 100% of the time it was fixed with an SMC reset. I suppose it's possible that your keyboard or mouse IS drawing too much power, do you have access to another you could try?

Hi I have problems with not working USB ports. It used to work. I downloaded actual drivers at msi.com for my gaming notebook GX 60 Destroyer and now my USB ports does not work. What should I do?
What driver have you updated?
Try to do an EC firmware reset by removing the battery and the AC adapter then put the battery back with AC adapter attached.
Same questions like Pegasus asked, does all ports not working? which one exactly? What OS are you using?
Have you done any changes to the system? (for example: self-install OS or changing OS) -
Audio output and left USB port is not working!
Hi! I have MacBook Air 13" late 2010, Audio output and left USB port is not working!
What happened?
Part No.: Z0JH000TE RSIf the left USB port doesnt work with an external mouse its seems to be a hardware malfunction of this USB port.
The newest BIOS is already installed?
Have you removed all USB ports from device manager and restarted your notebook?
If you have already tried this, contact an authorized service provider. The guys can try to fix this issue and it should be covered by warranty, if you still have warranty on this notebook. :) -
T420 USB Ports do not work after installing XP
Hello my office has been using Lenovo's for some time now but we recently purchased a T420 and installed Windows XP SP3 on it. The issue we are having is that the uSB ports do not work. I have tried every driver I can find but still no luck, can anyone help?
hey chris0277,
could you check in Device Manager and see if there is any ? or ! symbol on the USB area.
If there is, i do recommend uninstalling the drivers from it and then visit http://support.lenovo.com and update your unit

one of my usb ports is fine the other will charge but not transfer any data.
Thank you for your prompt reply. My Macbook is, unfortunately, older than one year and I have not AppleCare. I have been into the Apple store, they suggest me to buy an other laptop. Probably because the repair is more expensive than a new Macbook.
Anyway I have not intention to chane the computer because is less than 3 yrs old, and it wors very well except usb.
thank you again -
USB ports disabled/not working
My USB ports aren't working, one is completely dead and the other supplies power but I receive an error saying the port has been disabled due to the device using "too much power." I have restarted and updated with no luck. The devices work fine on my friend's computers with no error prompts. The laptop is 2 days old and I haven't done anything that should cause a short out, other than removing a USB storage plug without ejecting first.
USB plugs only supply *so much* power to USB devices.
The usual fix is to buy a self-powered exteral USB hub (AC adapter plugged into wall). That takes 95% of the power load off of the MBP.
But then some USB hubs do not play nice with Mac, and some devices do not play nice through an external hub at all due to the additional translation of USB signals.
First thing ... do not repeat overtaxing the USB ports ... only bad comes of that, even though the MBP usually can dened itself from damage -- usually.
Go to macsales.com, see what they recommend for powered USB hubs, since they try hard to be mac-compatible nad may have beter bets thn randomly trying ones from Best Buy or Fry's or Microcenter. -

HP Pavilion dv6-6b10tx two of the usb ports are not working
I have recently bought a HP Pavilion dv6-6b10tx....and had it fixed by hp for a problem with the beeping noise.
After sending my laptop for repairs( replacing the system board), I received my laptop but two of my usb ports are not functioning...
I did a bios update and did the hp update to see if it actually fix anything but not luck. So I went device manager and found a exclamation mark on the renesas electronics usb 3.0 host controller with a device status 'This device cannot start. (Code 10)'. What do i do??The question is why is the port not working? Is something in the port that you can see? If not, then there isn't much you can do but take the computer in to the genius bar and have the techs see if it is a circuit problem that can be fixed.
