Playbook not regerstering with computer

When I plug my Playbook into my computer via USB.
Nothing. Does not show up in Desktop software or Windows Explorer. 
My Blackberry phone works, so it's not the USB cable or USB cord.
I get a "!" in the top left saying "Unable to charge battery with connected source".
The OS version is 2.1.1314 and I have Windows 7 64-bit on my PC.

hey are you using the latest version of the desktop manager?  Also have you restarted the playbook and computer?
Has it ever worked?

  • TS3694 ipod 4gwill not update with computer: i get error 3194 also 1.6gb of other

    ipod will not update with computer: i get error 3194.. i updated itunes and still nothing. tryed to restore,same thing... now i have no music(random) and 1.6 GB of "OTHER"....help me

    This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect.  For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.
    Error 3194: Resolve error 3194 by updating to the latest version of iTunes. "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in the updater logs confirms this is the root of the issue. For more Error 3194 steps see: This device is not eligible for the requested build above.

  • HT1212 phone pass code locked on phone and will not sync with computer. we forgot passcode

    Phone Pass Code locked and will not sync with computer. Back up and restore with itunes

    Bummer because now you can not back up. But you can put the device in recovery mode and have itunes restore it. Turn the device off while the device is off hold down the home button while holding the home button down connect the cable to the phone and keep holding home button until you see itunes logo and cable image on the on the phone. Itunes will say its discovered a device in recovery mode click ok and click restore.

  • White screen, not syncing with computer- tried holding buttons please help?

    Please help. The screen of my daughters 4th gen ipod has frozen white. Have tried syncing the frozen ipod with computer but it is not recognised. I have treid holding home and sleep button at the same time but no change. Would be prepared to do a reset but the computer cannot recognise it. Have read various other responses to questions and am currently leaving the batteries to drain. None of this is helped by the fact that my daughter is sobbing about it in my ear! Ahhhhh

    Phil, did you have a hard Saturday night?  The ling you provided is for "regular" iPod, not iOS devises,  You link stated:
    "If you have an iPod touch, see iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows."

  • Ipad not connect with computer. error number (0xE8000084), ipad not connect with computer error number (0xE8000084)

    ipad not connected to computer. erreo number (0xE8000084)

    Hello Mohamed Abdo,
    It sounds like you are unable to connect your iPad to the computer because you get this error code when you try. I would use the troubleshooting for these types of errors from the following article:
    iOS: Unknown error containing '0xE' when connecting to a Windows PC
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3221
    Start with these steps, and there are additional steps in the article if you need them:
    1. Restart your computer.
    2. Install the latest version of iTunes.
    3. Verify that your computer meets the minimum system requirements. iOS devices require the following minimum version of Windows:
    Windows XP Service Pack 3
    Windows Vista
    Windows 7
    Windows 8
    4. Download and install any available software updates from Microsoft.
    5. Connect the device directly to your computer; not to an external USB hub. Find out if your computer has USB 2.0 ports.
    6. Check that the Dock Connector or Lightning Connector on both the device and cable are clean of any lint or other debris. If possible, connect your device using a different Apple 30-pin to USB cable or Apple Lightning Connector to USB cable.
    7. Disconnect other USB peripherals from your computer, with the exception of your keyboard and mouse. After disconnecting these peripherals, restart your computer, connect your device, and open iTunes.
    8. Connect your device to a different USB port on your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Iphone will not sync with computer

    to my knowledge my iphone versions are up to date
    I recently downloaded some ringtones from my phone,
    today I go to sync with my computer/ itunes page and nothing happens
    can't even get to my itunes page
    Help..

    Yes, I read those posts, but it did not help in my case re-install iTunes. Just more time spent on a problem that should not occur, and did not occur with 10.4.11 a few days ago. Only since upgrading to 10.5.4!
    I would not have upgraded if I could have figured out how to keep the wireless connection from dropping out all the time, but after two months of trying everything I read here and everything Apple support told me to do, it still dropped it several times per day. 10.5.4 seems to have fixed that problem so far and given me this one in return!

  • Note input with computer keyboard?

    I like writing music from the score. In score editor, is it possible to enter notes from my computer keyboard instead of dragging note values from the part box? (I'm not referring to a midi keyboard, but rather the standard computer keyboard)
    Programs like Sibelius enable you to do this by a combination of entering numbers on your computer keyboard's numeric keypad (1 for quarter note, e.g.) along with entering note names (a,b,c,d, etc), also on the computer keyboard.
    As Logic is more robust than Sibelius, I'd love to find a way to make note inputting from the computer keyboard a possibility.
    Thanks.

  • Notes on iCloud not syncing with computer

    I have notes on my iCloud account.  There are available online, on the iPad, and on the iPhone.  All 3 are synced together, but my computer will not sync with the iCloud account.  I have already turned off the Note toggle on the iCloud account preference, re-started my computer, and then turned the Note toggle back on.  It still will not download/sync the notes on the iCloud server.  Please help.

    Double-check that you haven't inadvertatly failed to select your iCloud account to view on your Mac (open Notes and click on the iCloud account on the left sidebar; if you don't see it, go to View>Show Folders List).
    Assuming that isn't the issue, if you haven't already tried signing out of your account, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, choose delete at all of the prompts, restart your Mac, then sign back in.  (This deletes the account and iCloud data from your Mac but not from iCloud.  Your data will redownload when you sign back in.)

    Hi,
    Have you tried a Reset on the Phone...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See the Information in these Links:
