Problems with the USB Ports

Hi there,
I writing this because I'm having some really big problems with my USB ports.
A few days ago I plugged in an USB-Hub that was quite cheap. Suddenly a window popped up saying that a USB device was deactivated because it "needed" to much power. Since this happening, two of those windows keep popping up everytime I boot the MacBook. I called Apple and got some help: I had to delete some .plist files and clear some caches. The man who helped was able to find the error and deactivate the notification, he also told me to make a PRAM- and a SMC-reset. The man said that it's just a software problem and that I have to reinstall the system if we don't find a solution. So, one day later I reinstalled the system (Lion) and not only didn't it help, the two notification windows were popping up again...everytime I booted the Mac. So I decided to formate the whole hard drive and install Snow Leopard -> still the problem with the USB ports. After that I installed Lion  -> still the problem with the USB ports. I even tried to extract the .kext files that are important for the USB functionality from an earlier Combo Update, but it didn't help either. The point is, that the Mac doesn't recognize my external hard drive or any of my iDevices. Sometimes it recognizes USB sticks, but only after 20 seconds. The data transfer on both USB ports is also very slow. If I'm lucky and Mac recognizes one of my USB sticks, it takes like an hour for 1GB to be transfered on the USB stick or from the USB sticks to the Mac.
I really don't know what to do and need help, especially because my backup data is on my external hard drive which I can't access because of this problem.
I really hope that someone can help me, I'm very thankful for every answer that could help me!
PS: Sorry for my bad English, I hope that everyone understands what I mean, please tell me if you don't get what I'm trying to explain in the text above.
Sincerely,
iLoud
[UPDATE] I downloaded "USB Prober" and copied the Output file, maybe it helps:

  • Problem with the USB ports

    The usb ports work, but when i start up my computer, occaisionally the mouse won't work.  I'll have to unplugg it from the usb port, wait ten seconds, and plug it back in and it'll work fine.  I was just wondering if anyone knows what might be the problem here.

  • Is anyone else experiencing problems with the thunderbolt port on their Mac Mini's regarding using it to connect a second monitor? I've got the Mini Display Port to DVI-D adapter along with a DVI-D cable and I can't get an image on the second monitor.

    I had an dual display image / setup working twice for a few seconds, but then it cut out. I think there may be a problem with the thunderbolt port.

    As far as I can tell you have only listed that you have a DVI monitor connected to the Mini Displayport socket (i.e. the Thunderbolt socket) via presumably the Apple Mini Displayport to DVI adapter and a DVI to DVI cable.
    You don't appear to have listed what the second monitor is and how it is connected (even though not working). As such I cannot tell what may be wrong.

  • Can a USB Keyboard/Barcode reader be used with the USB port on the CRio

    Is it possible to use a USB Keyboard or Barcode reader with the USB port on the CRio, I know you can use this port with a USB memory device, but what about other devices?
    I have a project that requires that all hardware elements be connected to the controller and use the HMI purely for display,
    anybody any ideas?? 

    Hi kmoyna,
    The standard CompactRIO range's USB host ports are not suitable for standard USB devices like keyboards or barcode readers - they are intended only for use of mass storage devices. From your description, it seems your project's requirements would be best met by the newer models, cRIO-9081 or cRIO-9082. These two units have Windows Embedded Standard 7 (WES7) and allow the direct connection of a monitor and standard USB devices. We now also have similar stand-alone CompactDAQ models running WES7 - cDAQ 9139.
    I would recommend calling into your local branch to discuss your project further with one of our engineers. If you're in the UK, it's 01635 523 545 - or view contact details for other branches.

  • My Apple desktop computer, 2.4 GHz Intel duo core, OS 10.6.8, stopped recognizing the WD My Book connected via firewire. It works fine with the USB port so it's not the drive. Help please.

    My Apple desktop computer, 2.4 GHz Intel duo core, OS 10.6.8, stopped recognizing the WD My Book connected via firewire. It works fine with the USB port so it's not the drive. Help please?

    It can be the bridge. It could need firmware update. or the FW ports may be an issue. LaCie seemed to invent the phrase/tip 'resetting firewire ports' due to the issues with their drive cases.
    You can try an SMC Reset.
    So far I have avoided name-brand and tend to see them mentioned. Often with a new OS (though you are on 10.6.8, but when 10.6 came out there was a common complaint and thread of users: FW or USB worked but not the other interface).

    Check that the LCI in the dock connector of the iPhone hasn't been set off as shown in the article below:

    I tried to update my sons ipod.  It has the itunes logo with a usb port on the screen.  If I restore it I will loose all his games and music.  Is there any way around this??  Please Help??

    Yes, that is your only option.Yes.  You have to restore.
    Try the following if you have difficulty restoring.
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Problems with GE60 USB ports

    Hi everyone, a new issue with my GE60 Apache Pro's USB ports has come up, mind you this is a brand new laptop. If I plug in a USB device while in Windows 7 it will be recognized and installed, no problem. However, if I reboot into Windows with the same device already plugged in, the USB ports will stop functioning. Even though that device will appear to be recognized it won't be functional. In fact, no other devices I try to use afterwards are recognized and Windows will stall indefinitely if I try to shut down/reboot. I would have to manually power down the laptop, remove any devices, then boot up again and it would be fine.
    Any idea what's causing this? Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

    What USB devices are you using for reboot and afterward? and does this happens on all USB ports?

    Narrowed the issue down to Intel's HD 4600 graphics driver... no idea how it affects the USB ports but the driver itself is unstable, already caused two BSODs...
    Can you tell the BSOD messages or provide dump files for the crash downs?

  • So I stuck a key into one of the USB ports and then a message came up and it crashed straight away and now it won't turn back on.(the message was to do with the USB port taking to much power when there wasn't anything besides the key) help?

    Please help! My mac is about 6 months old and I was just playing with my keys and stuck it in the USB port and then it crashed and won't turn on, it's not picking up the charger (the little led light isn't on) and pressing the power button does absolutely nothing

    Reset the SMC first. If this doesn't work, reset PRAM. Move down troubleshoot with links below. First, SMC reset for MBP models 2009 and later:
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • Problem with the USB-connection after upgrade to P...

    Hello to everybody!
    After upgrading PC-suite, I can't establish a USB-connection with the phone.
    Here are the facts:
    1) My phone is the E90. Latest software installed (300.34.84)
    2) PC-Suite version 7.0.9.2 english. I also tried the greek version, same problem with it also.
    3) Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver 7.0.2.1. I also installed manually a previous version of the driver (7.0.2.0), but this didn't solve the problem.
    4) I didn't have any problem with the older version of PC-suite.
    5) I don't have a problem with the cable because the data-transfer-mode works fine.
    6) Prior to any installation attempt, I always first uninstalled PC-suite and Cable-driver manually with the windows-xp uninstall program. This was not the fact, only in my first attempt, where I upgraded the pc-suite from inside the program itself.
    Please help, because I can't backup and this is very important for me!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thank you all for your suggestions but nothing of the above worked for me.
    After of hours and hours of installing and uninstalling of several versions of the pc-suite I solved the problem as following:
    1) Uninstall manually (windows - control panel - add/remove programs)Nokia-PC-Suite, Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver AND PC Connectivity Solution!
    2) Restart PC
    3) Download and install the new version of Nokia-PC-Suite.
    The tricky part is that you have to uninstall the application called "PC Connectivity Solution" manually and since the title of the application dosn't include the Nokia-Name you have first to find out that this program is Nokia-related!
    Once again, thanks to everybody who took the time to make suggestions and especially to cricfancy who made me aware of the fact that PC Connectivity Solution is a nokia application!
    Finally, I would like to make a statement for Nokia:
    People, if you are not sure about an update then keep it in beta and don't make it available to the public!!! I lost hours and hours on search and made countless installs and uninstalls to find out what was wrong. Under the line, I had made no mistakes in my update from the start and the whole problem was based on your software! This is not acceptable!

    I don't know if it is neccesary to update the drivers, or maybe the BIOS , I download the drivers that appear in the page of MS-6534, but i don't want to intall nothing because I am no sure. Please someone can tell me if I must install these drivers of some BIOS update?, of maybe my motherboard don't support USB 2.0 .and do you know if is  necessary to install the windows xp servipack 2?
