Qosmio G does not recognize mouse using two left USB ports

I am right handed so I naturally put my Saitec optical mouse in the right hand port.
The other day I plugged it into the two left hand ports and the machine did not recognise the mouse.
It went through the process of installing drivers (even though this had been done some weeks ago when i plugged it into the right hand port)
Anyway the mouse will not operate at all when plugged into the left side ports.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be happening?
Regard Sean.

Hi
Did you test the both left USB ports with other USB devices. i.e USB flash stick???
Maybe you should do this to figure out if it could be a faulty USP port.
But I would recommend testing this;
First of all disconnect all USB devices
Then go into the device manager and remove all USB host controller and USB hubs from the device list.
Close all windows and reboot the notebook.
Finally the OS should recognize the new devices (USB ports) again.
Connect a USB device to one of the left ports and check if it would work.
Bye
PS: What Qosmio do you have?

  • FCP X does not recognize projects and events on USB drive after a time machine restore of the MBP macintosh disk

    FCP X does not recognize projects and events on USB drive after a time machine restore of the MBP macintosh disk.
    I upgraded from an i5 to an i7 15" MBP and restored my files using my time machine backup. All seemed to go ok, except I had to use the migration assistant because on the initial boot the MAC didn't recognize the backup database on the USB device. MAybe this is a hint.
    Since when I start FCPX it too cannot finnd the project or event directories.
    Before my upgrade, I had a choice of files either on the Macintosh disk or the 2TB USB disk.
    Now only files on the Macintosh are accessible to FCPX. The USB drive is visible under events and project but it finds no projects or events.
    Please help if you can.
    Thanks

    Thanks... alas no one has responded.
    I think I have the structure that you are recommending.
    I have a root level directory (Final Cut Events) with the files in them.
    The puzzling thing is that it used to work before the migration!.
    Anyway I'm going to move the contents to the root and see what happens.
    On a slightly different note...
    I also posted a question about CPU utilization. Can I ask a question or two?
    While rendering a short clip, I noticed burst of disk activity when the render started (likely loading the media files into ram since I have about 4Gigs available, then almost no activity while the render is happening, then more disk activity when its done.
    However the cpu activity is not as high as I would have expected since rendering requires a lot of cpu.
    What is your experience? I know some render is done by the GPU, but in my older i5 the CPU was about 100%, now in my i7 its about 50%.
    Please look at the attached utilization for CPU and disk activity.
    Thanks for any thoughts... Barry

  • Right side USB port does not recognize mouse while in Vista

    Ok, heres the deal. I use a corded USB mouse with my MacBook Pro. I am right handed, so I usually plug the mouse into the right side USB port. It works just fine while I am booted into OSX, but while in Vista, the mouse is not recognized at all when it is plugged into the right side. The mouse still works on the left side port just fine.
    The weird thing is that I can still use that same right side USB port for my flash drive or iPod or anything else. Just not my mouse. Anybody else have this issue or have any input?
    Thanks

    Am I the only one with this problem? I am going to try to uninstall the mouse drivers in vista and then reinstall them and see if that does anything.

  • My iPhone 4 is not showing up in the left USB port on my Retina MBP. It does, however, show up in the right port. Thoughts on why?

    It does not seem to matter if the computer is plugged into power, or if other devices are plugged into the other ports.
    Can anyone tell me why, or give me solution?
    Thanks

    There have been a number of reported problems with the USB 3 ports on the 2012 models. Several people  running Mountain Lion say that it 'fixes' the problems. Until then, see this Apple tech note - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5172#12.
    Good luck - Mountain Lion is just around the corner and will hopefully fix some of the glitches.

  • IPod does not show up when connected to USB port; why?

    My grandson has an iPod Shuffle.
    Working with iTunes6, I connected the iPod to the USB port becasuse we wanted to get a print-out of the 75 songs there.
    It did not show up in iTunes listing; why??
    We know the songs are there; they can be played.
    The iPod was identified back in February as "Valentino" on a different computer; I wish I had that machine because "Valentino" showed up on it.
    BTW, I have now up-graded to iTunes7 but the iPod is not here to try it out.

    A whole list!! Such as?
    Besides, after reading the emails about iTunes7, I'm in no hurry to try anything right now.
    I'll wait until iTunes7 gets stable.
    If iTunes7 were to wipe out my ten year old grandson's 75 songs (as apparently it is very capable of doing) from his iPod, Apple can forget about him as a customer for a long, long, long time.

  • Qosmio F60-10K: Win 7 64bit does not recognize all devices attached to USB

    Hi,
    I have one problem. I dont know is this from first run my Toshiba what was before 6 months or from then...
    some USB are recognized some are not but many not just few USB are recognized I mean on USB sticks, External hard drive USB too.
    I have 2 external USB hard drive one is recohnized 1 is not, btw.. when i start Vmware XP it recognized all USB and my all external hard drive but in windows 7 some USB are recognized some are not...
    It find something is attached to USB but then say no driver, I tried on other Windows 7 on other computer it working USB and external Hard Drive but to my Toshiba Windows 7 64 Bit don't works, btw.. usb are good because when I turn on Vmware it working :((
    And why I dont have anymore drivers on support and then drivers its say no product, btw... F60-10K driver page dont exist anymore !
    Thank you, vfranges
    Btw.. Sorry on english xD

    Hi vfranges,
    Yes, you dont need the Toshiba recovery disk because you can use the HDD recovery files to reinstall Windows. But to be on the safely side you should create the disk before you start HDD recovery. If something goes wrong, you can use the recovery disk.
    Back to your question: The HDD recovery feature you can start in advanced boot menu of Windows. So press F8 key before Windows starts and select Repair My Computer and follow the screen instructions to start HDD recovery.
    By the way: All these information you can find in user manual! ;)

    Hi, I have an HP Pavilion G6-2146sl with Windows 7 Ultimate x64... my problem is that the two left USB ports stopped to work properly: for example, when I insert an USB flash drive it turns on but it's not recognized by Windows. The only port wich works is the one on the right of the laptop. I've tried to do a driver search, but Windows doesn't find any driver. Here's a screen of my Windows device management:

  • I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC transfer program. CS5 started up on the new computer OK, but now does not recognize raw files. Should I uninstall and reinstall again?

    I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC mover ultimate. CS5 appeared to start up normally, I had to insert the serial number from my original CD. However, now the program does not recognize CR files and Adobe bridge is not working properly.  I get messages that CS5 needs to be updated, but the updates fail. What should I do? Should I uninstall CS5 on the new computer, uninstall CS5 on the old computer using the original CD, and then reinstall CS5 using the CD on the new computer?

    Transferring programs does not work well with Adobe applications.  You should install them.
    As far as having the program on different machines goes, you are allowed to have two activated installations so if it is working on the original machine there is no reason to remove it unless you need the space.

    I have Photoshop CS3 which I have used successfully for a number of years.  I now shoot pics with a Nikon DSLR D7100. When I try to open NEF files the following flag appears: "Could not complete your request because PS does not recognize this file".  What do I need to do to open my NEF files??  Thanks.

    Thanks for the quick reply, CP
    FYI, the file is a photographic panorama based on several .CR2 photos taken in July, 2012 and processed in CS5's camera RAW/Photoshop.  Beyond the metadata, here are no fonts or text in the file.
    1.  I changed Maximize ...File Capability from "Never" to "Always" and the flattened file saved and loaded OK, though I can't figure why given Adobe's description of this option. "If you work with PSD and PSB files in older versions of Photoshop or applications that don’t support layers, you can add a flattened version of the image to the saved file...".  The file saved in this manner is ~8% larger and is not my preference as a routine since I've TB's of photo files.  By the way, out of thousands of .psd/.psb files, the one being discussed is the first to give me the error.
    2.  I've tried saving/reloading the file on another computer with Win XP Sp3/CS5...again with Maximize Capability OFF.  Same problem.  Turn ON Maximize Capability and it works.  As with the Win 8 machine, Bridge could neither create a thumbnail or read Metadata.
    3.  I've purged the Bridge Cache, made sure there were no old PS page files, reset PS preferences, and disabled my 2 plugins with no change in the problem.  Windows and Adobe progs are all updated.  Saving to a different HDD has no effect.
    The problem occurs on 2 computers (Win XP/Win 8), two versioins of Photoshop (CS5/CS6), and "Maximize" On/Off togles the problem.  My guess it is a bug in PSD processing routines.
    If I can't find a fix, will keep with Maximize ON and deal with the larger files that result...the cost of insurance, I suppose.
    Thanks again

  • I got an iphone 4. I had to update my macbook pro to Lepard just to sync. I updated to lepard. Now when I try to sync itunes does not recognize my new iphone 4 as mine and wants to erase everything I have bought using the phone.

    I upgraded from Iphone 3g to iphone 4. I had to update my macbook pro to Lepard just to sync. the **** thing with the new iphone 4. I bought and updated to lepard. Now when I try to sync itunes does not recognize my new iphone 4 as mine and wants to erase everything I have bought using the phone before it will sync! It says everything on the phone now will be cleared in order to sync it with my existing info on the computer from my previous iphone. How can I just get everything from my current iphone 4 into itunes, basically add it to the info from my previous iphone 3g that is currently in my itunes?  I dont want to lose what I have on my phone currently....I paid money for half the apps for crying out loud.
    I was so frustrated by this when I first bought the phone that I just pushed it out of my mind and NEVER synced it. Please help...

    Nope - you cannot restore a backup from a newer iOS version on to a device running an older iOS version.  The reverse works, but in your case to use your backup, you must update to iOS 7.0.3 - no other option if you want to use that backup.

    Is this a problem with the computer or with the word processor? MS Word for example seems to think its grammar and spelling are better than mine - they are not. You have to go into MS Word preferences and uncheck all the useless "help" it wants to provide.

  • I suddenly cannot email photos from iphoto. I get a box that says "server does not recognize username or password". I now have to use regular email and cannot re-size my photos.

    Suddenly I can no longer email photos directly via iphoto mail.  The box comes up that says "server does not recognize username or password".  I used to be able to re-size my photos before sending so that they jpeg or pixels were larger for publishing in newspapers or magazines, but I can no longer do that.  Apple tech support told me to change my iphoto "preferences" to using regular email to send.  But that does not allow me to re-size.  Is anyone else having this problem?  I don't know if there was an update that caused this or what?  Please help.

    The box comes up that says "server does not recognize username or password".
    That error message usually will pop up, when there is a conflict between the "From" setting for the mail account you are sending from and the selected outgoing mail server. Probably the outgoing Mail server is receiving a user name and password it does not understand. When the mail returns unsent, do you see the "Try again" panel with the option to select a different outgoing mail server?
    If you do not see this panel, change the Mail "Preferences > General" to "If Outgoing server is unavailable: Show a list of alternate servers". This way, you will know, which server Mail is trying to send from.
    Have you tried to set "From"  pop-up menu to one of your other email addresses?  If that works, change your settings in Mail to always send from this address. You can set this option in the Mail "Preferences > Composing: Send New Messages from". I have my "Send New Messages from" set to "iCloud". That is working best for me with iPhoto.

  • After sleep, retina MacBook Pro (Mid 2014) does not recognize usb connected mouse movement

    After sleep, retina MacBook Pro (Mid 2014, on 10.9.4) does not recognize usb connected mouse movement. I have tried a generic usb mouse and my Razer Deathadder usb mouse. Both mice work before sleep; but after sleep, the computer no longer recognizes mouse movement while still recognizing the mouse buttons when pressed. Any idea why this is occurring?

  • I have produced a number of DVD on my iMac. They are stored in a folder called Burn Folder. I want to get them into iTunes so I can play them on Apple TV. I have tried to convert them to MP4s using Handbrake but Handbrake does not recognize these files.

    If you have the original movie files, you'd be much better converting those, otherwise try MPEGstreamclip.

    I am trying to copy photos from an iPad to a Mac Air, but iPhoto does not recognize them. Please forgive the ignorance, but we have just started moving to apple products and I know nothing about them. Do you have to use PhotoStream to do this?

    How did the photos that you want to copy off get on the iPad  ? To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a Mac you should be able to use iPhoto, Aperture or Image Capture
    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.
