Sony Smartwatch 2 - device not detected when plugging into laptop

Hi, When plugging my smartwatch 2 into my laptop I get that the USB device cannot be detected / no driver error and PC companion doesn't recognise it too. I know it's not a laptop issue as I connect my Xperia Z tablet and Z1 phone to it fine. Any help would be much appreciated. Gavin

The SW2 isn't a device that will be detected as an external device being connected - Updates are done via an app update and apps are done via the phone - So you can't transfer files to it merely charge it via your Laptop

  • New hard disk not detected when plugged into SUN FIRE X4150

    Hi
    We have a server currently set up as RAID-1. There's a need to have additional space for operational needs so an additional 300GB hard disk was acquired and need not be in RAID-1 setup. It was plugged into the server and the server seems to hang i.e. remote sessions terminated, cannot be ping.
    Server was powered down, and after removing the hard disk, powered up. Everything is ok again.
    We then powered down the server, plugged in the hard disk, and powered it up. Server boot up into the OS ok but the new hard disk did not get detected.
    My questions are:-
    1. Is it possible to add a 3rd hard disk in a RAID-1 server?
    2. If yes, what are we doing wrong or missed?
    3. If it not possible, does it mean in a RAID-1 setup, any additional hard disk to be added MUST also be RAID-1 configured?

    Hi.
    This server can be ordered with LSI RAID controller or with Adaptec RAID controller.
    They are required different steps for configure disks.
    Adaptec RAID controller require first create volume at BIOS level RAID configuration menu.

  • Zen V not recognised when plugged into laptop and it won't turn

    Hi,
    I just recently discovered this issue after not using my Zen V for a good month or so. Basically when I plugged it into my USB port it isn't recognised - all the software is installed yet it comes up saying new hardware was found with the name "STMP3600" and asks to to insert a disc and install the software. I remember seeing the software CD recently, but I'm experiencing that horrid feeling when you can see it at the front of your mind but you can't seem to quite grasp where it is :smileyvery-happy: I looked on this site but the only downloads are the Recovery programme (says I've not got anything plugged in) and the firmware (can't update if PC says nothing is connected).
    I also can't turn it on; normally when its flat it turns on to the 'Creative' screen then flashes up with a battery warning sign and the words 'Low Battery' but this time its not the case. I tried slotting in a thin piece of metal and reseting & turning it on at the same as it recommends to get the internal recovery mode but no joy.
    I can't send an email as I can't find the documents with the purchase date (it was from Amazon) and the serial code; I know it was some time in mid 2007 as I purchased it in my final year of University. Can you guess where that paper-work would be?
    If anyone can give me some ideas of what to do, I would be very grateful! (And I will continue looking for my CD).

  • X-fi fatal1ty device not detected when running speaker selection wizard

    Gx-fi fatalty device not detected when running speaker selection wizard? ?
    System is a custom build, based off an ASUS A8N-SLI Premium, with two GTX7800 display cards. in a SLI configuration
    Fresh installation fo Windows XP Profesional with SP3 slipstreamed.
    Origional CD fails to detect the card, claiming a supported device is not present.
    This card has worked prevously, and is verified as fully functional in windows Vista. ?
    Please note Windows Vista can not be used.
    I have tried about 30 different versions of the drivers (each on a clean installation) and used both clean and dirty boots, and nothing is working.
    Before anyone points me at other threads in this forum, please note i have been scouring this forum for the past week trying every sugestion there is, and I have raised a ticket with Creative (who despite the prommise of a 2 day responce, have yet to respond)
    I have tired multiple versions of the NForce drivers, NVidia display drivers, Creative Drivers, Bios updates, Chipset hacks and more.
    does anyone hav a sugestion that is not already posted on this forum.

    Tried it on one of the spare PC's in the house earlier (Nforce 2 based) - still no recognition of the card whatsoever, it's as if it doesn't exist.
    I'm guessing that the card is pretty much toasted eh?

  • Toshiba backup drive not recognized when plugged into thunderbolt display.

    My Toshiba backup drive does not mount to my MacBookPro when plugged into my Thunderbolt Display. It works beautifully when plugged directly into my MBP, and other USB devices work beautifully when plugged into the same USB ports on the Thunderbolt Display.
    All my equipment is pretty new. The Toshiba is currenlty configured to be my Time Machine back up drive.
    Laptop: 15" Macbook Pro, 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 100 MHz DDR3, Mac OS 10.8.5
    Backup Drive: Toshiba 500GB Canvio® Basics USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive
    Apple Thunderbolt Display: 2560 x 1440, NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB graphics
    When I plug the backup drive into the TB Display, usually nothing happens. The blue light on the drive doesn't come on, and it doesn't mount to the desktop. If I wiggle the USB back there, sometimes the blue light will come on, and sometimes it will mount for a minute then go away. This is true for all 3 USB ports. I have not had problems with any other USB devices, but the only other ones I've plugged into the Thunderbolt are my keyboard, bluetooth headset charger, and other items that probably use less power than the backup drive.

    But the cable works when plugged into my laptop. Plus, the cable connection is pretty specific to the device; I'm not sure if you can buy another one seperately.

  • My new iPad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. Any suggestions?

    my new ipad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. What should I try?

    Does the charger get warm at all? Plug the cable into your computer with iTunes open. Does it say not charging.? If it does, the cable is good. The iPad will charge very slowly when pluged into your computer.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • IPhone will not charge when plugged into computer

    My phone was not working, and so I took it to the apple store nearby. Here were the problems:
    -error message saying "this device not made to work with iPhone"
    -would not charge when plugged into computer OR wall charger
    -person on other end of phone calls said i sounded really far away and had trouble hearing me
    -when i shut it off, it restarts itself immediately
    -cant do a manual reset holding the power and center buttons at same time
    -when plugged into the computer, mouse freezes, and a message appears saying ""power surge on hub port A usb device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port."
    At the genuis bar they told me they cant help me cause that little water damage indicator inside the headphone hole is pink instead of white! I have never ever ever ever ever EVER gotten my phone directly wet. The only thing i could think of was the humidity in the bathroom when I'm taking a shower, and using the timer to use hair remover on my legs lol. But i think this is totally unfair, they wont repair my phone, or even really look at it because of this supposed water damage. My phone has worked fine up to this point, and the thing that happened that started all of this is when i dropped it about a foot off the ground in a DRY parking lot.
    Is there any way they will replace my iphone at no charge?

    Well don't give up try again maybe your luck will change when you go back up there,let somebody else look at your phone not the same person that told you that.I would get a second and a 3rd option about my phone.When you go back don't even tell them what somebody already told you up there ones.
    And after the 3rd time I'll ask them well can they send your phone off to be fixed,It might not be nothing wrong with your phone it might be just they eyes playing tricks on them.Cause I promise you I know my phone had gotten some water in it cause I was sitting on the porch one day me and about 6 other people one of my cousin came out and through a bucket of water at my brother and I was sitting right on the side of him.And when I say my phone look like I than gave it a bath witch when they did that I had already had call the Apple store and told them something was wrong with my phone.And they had gave me appt to come up there,so I went to the Apple store I wanted say two day's latter after I made the appt to let them see my phone but my cousin and brother was playing with that water the day before I had to go so I guess that's why I was mad cause I was going to get other phone the next day after apple look at my old phone.So even with all that they still gave me other phone and I don't see how I didn't have no water in my phone cause of how much water they had through on my phone.
    I guess I was luck cause if they would have told me that I would have freaked out so badly.And the reason why cause I wouldn't had my phone for five days and for them to tell me they couldn't do something oh yea they would have done something cause I would have went to jail that day for tearing up something in the store that worth my 400 and something dollars I spent on my phone and it would have bent one of them computer that would have bent history.
    But I'M telling you,you going to be okay don't give up.Make you other appt and see what they say.

  • Computer says usb/device not recognized when plugged in??

    When I plug in my sons ipod nano 7th generation, just recently says usb/device not recognized and doesn't light up when plugged into the wall either??? Any suggestions??

    This came from another thread, but worked for me.  Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62.  Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Divice Support, and Apple Software Update).  Reboot, and reinstall iTunes.  It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano.  Good luck.

  • Camera not working when plugged into certain USB ports

    I just purchased a Creative Live! Cam for use on my dual G5 running 10.5. When I plug the camera into the USB port on the front of the Mac, it works fine with iChat.
    However, when I plug it into the back of the monitor (older style Cinema display), it says it is in use by another application.
    Any idea how to resolve this? The cable isn't terribly long and the machine is several feet away from the monitor, so I'd like to use the ones on the monitor. (Obviously it gives a power-error message when plugged into the keyboard, which is normal).
    Thanks

    Seems like it is a USB 2.0 or not problem

  • Phone does not ring when plugged into external speakers

    Is there a docking speaker that will allow the iPhone to ring for incoming calls when plugged into speaker listening to music?

    Hi Alicia,
    All of the iPhone compatible speakers listed here: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shopiphone/iphoneaccessories/speakers?mco=MTU2NjIwMw should allow the iPhone to ring while in the dock.

  • My iPhone 4S is not charging when plugged into clock radio. What's wrong?

    So about a week ago, I docked my iPhone 4S into my Sony ICF-C7iP clock radio as I do every evening before going to bed. I bought this clock radio back in August and have had no problems with it at all. However this time, I noticed my phone was not charging. It didn't make the charging beep nor did it show on the display that it was charging. I tried removing it & re-seating it...nothing. I tried rebooting my phone which resulted in the same problem. When I plug my iPhone into either a standard sync cable or an iPhone dock, it charges/syncs as normal.
    Suspecting the problem was with the alarm clock, I contacted Sony support. The clueless support rep on the other line suggested I return the clock in exchange for a refurbished one. For a $60 clock, this was more trouble than it was worth, so I decided against it.
    I then decided to purchase an iHome iA9 which was sure to work. I just unpacked it and set it up. When I docked the iPhone on it...you guessed it...nothing. It is still not charging. The funny thing is that the iPhone will play music through the iHome with no problems. I had also tried plugging the iHome into a different outlet with no luck either. I am out of ideas. I am left to assume that for some reason, my phone does no longer like charging when docked on to an alarm clock.
    Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how I can get this to work again? I recently upgraded to iOS 5.1 and honestly don't know if that would have anything to do with it. But the likelihood of 2 completely different clock radios exhibiting the same problem is virtually non-existent.
    As mentioned, I tried rebooting the phone with no luck. Docking the phone to a standard charging cable plugged into the wall charges the phone fine. Docking the phone on an iPhone compatable dock charges the phone fine. Is the problem with my phone?
    Thank you in advance for your assistance!

    Tim, I was speaking generally. Obviously the iOS upgrade didn't remove the ability to charge on ALL 3rd party devices, else my iH9 wouldn't charge it either.
    What I just can't understand is how an old iHome model works just fine with a new iPhone, yet a new iHome model will not. If anything, I would think it would be the other way around.
    Anyway, I emailed iHome explaining my situation and I asked if they had planned on releasing a firmware update to fix the problem. I got the typical generic response about unplugging the iHome & removing the batteries for an hour then trying again. And if that doesn't work, send it in for repair in which I would need to pay for the shipping.
    If I decide to go that route, I think it's just going to be a waste of time as I would get the iHome back "repaired" and it would have the exact same problem. But I guess I'll never know until I try.
    I remember reading on these forums about several others having the same problem. So what are the odds that the iHomes these other people got who are experiencing the same problem are problematic as well? Unless the "repair" iHome is referring to is a firmware update, I don't really buy into this.

  • Iphone 5 not working when plugged into widows

    i have an iphone 5 around 6 months now, it charges perfectly and when i plug it into my laptop it does not show up at all, at the start this was not an issie and i now can now sync music or even charge it on the laptop. i have tried a different laptop and i different lead with no luck. the apple mobile device is intallef and both iphone and itunes are up to date in terms of upates. Ive tried alot f things at this stage and i looked at the thing on the itunes support on this and tried the things it said, again the phone is not even charging on the laptop, i have a windows 7 laptop and iphone 5.. any halp is great thanks

    With the device not connected to the computer, remove and reinstall iTunes, following the instructions in this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923. Make sure you follow them in order, or it could lead to problems. After reinstalling, connect the phone. It should reinstall the drivers at that time.

  • IPod will not update when plugged into computer?

    Just recently my iPod with not update when I plug it into my computer. My iPod does not show up on my Mac or my iTunes. When I plug it in the screen shows the do not disconnect sign. I have tried to reset my iPod and checked for new updates, but they haven't worked. If anyone knows what to do that would be great.
    Thanks

    Yes. Since I installed the new system software (10.4.6) update Sunday night, I cannot update any of my iPods except the iPod video. The iPods also do not show up on my desktop. The battery charges but that's all that happens.
