Sound, USB Ports, and Wireless don't work.

I installed Windows XP on my MacBook, but when I switch to Windows the sound doesn't work, the USB ports don't read my flash drives, and the built in wireless don't work. I can't connect to the internet to download drivers, if they're needed. Can anyone tell me what to do?

the drivers are on the DVD that came with your computer.

USB ports and SD reader not working

For a few days my usb ports and SD reader stop working, I tried, Doing a SMC Reset and a PRAM reset I also reinstall my operating system but non of then have worked any advice would be greatly appreciated.

USB mouse and keyboard don't work on HP Pavilion g7 2203sd, Windows 8.1.

It is not possible to use a USB mouse or keyboard on the HP Pavilion g7 2203sd notebook running Windows 8.1.
A wireless mouse used to work (already some time ago), but now wired or wireless mouse and keyboard don't work any more.
I have tried removing USB devices in the Windows Device Manager and let Windows detect them again, but it does not work.
I read somewhere that it might have to do with the xHCI USB controller that is installed.
I tried removing that and connecting the USB mouse but no succes.
I also looked for driver updates or something to disbale in the BIOS (like xHCI), but nothing found for that.
Can anybody help me with this problem.
Thanks!

K450 USB Ports and Card Readers not working

When I plug in devices to my K450 ideacentre desktop USB ports, they are not recognized. The same for a couple of memory cards I have tried in the card reader. These are all working fine when put in other computers. The card reader and USB ports do work when I insert a multi card reader into the USB port or a multi USB port into the USB port (and then use either of those to read the same external hard drive or memory cards that don't show up when installed directly). Any idea what this could be? I'm sure it's something simple that I'm missing but I can't figure it out. I'm running Windows 8. Thanks for any help!

I wanted to add to this...I did plug in a CF card the other day and that was recognized. I then tried my external hard drive directly again in a front USB port and it worked for a while (an hour or so). Then it suddenly was not there anymore as if I'd ejected it even though I didn't. Tried to put it back in and nothing. This tells me it may be a hardware problem since it "recognized" it for a bit. It's very frustrating.

Safari and wireless don't work unless I am connected to wireless

safari and my wireless don`t work together, unless the macbook is connected to the wireless

Take your MacBook to another location where wireless networks are available - a coffee house or public building - and see if it finds wireless networks when it starts up. If so, the problem might be with your router at home. If not, you might check System Preferences > Network and see if Airport is operating/on.
If by "connected" you mean via ethernet cable, there are a couple things to try: Take a look at your wireless router's settings (router's manual will have instructions for accessing settings) and see what security features are on/off.

HT201257 How can I run the hardware test when my USB ports and bluetooth doesn't work?

The USB ports and the Bluetooth suddenly will not work on my Mac Mini (2008). There is very little I can do except using Remote Desktop. To run the Hardware Test, the D key has to be pressed during startup. I got no key to press. Is there any other way to do this?

Sorry, focused on bluetooth issue. If USB and bluetooth are knackered, try an SMC reset:
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.

USB ports and inbuilt webcam stopped working

I updated to 8.1 a few months ago and everythings been fine until now, I haven't downloaded anything at all lately
except borderlands 2 from steam which i was playing w/ a wireless USB mouse, until my laptop gave me a low battery warning so i closed it without turning it off and put it to a side.
Later I put the laptop on charge and opened it w/ my ipod charger and USB mouse attached and the ports just weren't
working.
I booted the laptop into diagnostic mode and the ports worked, i could use the mouse and my iPod was charging. I
ran tests on all 3 ports to and all 3 passed, but when i boot the pc into normal mode they don't work at all, so I'm thinking that it's a problem w/ the software & not the ports/camera themselves.
I've tried:
Turning off the USB selective suspend setting
Uninstalling the USB ports in device manager and rebooting (camera isnt showing up in dev mgr at all)
Updating/re-installing the drivers (from both HP and Intel websites)
Doing a system restore
There is a section in device manager called Other Devices containing "Unknown Device" and "Unknown USB Device (Configuration descriptor request failed)" (both w/ yellow exclamation points)
My laptop is a HP 250 G1 Notebook PC

Hi,
Meanwhile, please reinstall the usb controller and check the result:
First, please disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:
a) In Device Manager, double click to expand "Universal Serial Bus controllers", right click on the Host Controller, click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
b) Repeat the step 2 to uninstall all items under "Universal Serial Bus controllers".
Then, restart your computer.
Please also make sure you update to latest BIOS, you can refer to the user manual or the manufacture website since this operation might contain some risks.

Envy 15 AMD A10 USB ports and fingerprint scanner not working

Hi
I've had my HP envy 15 about 2 months now and today all the USB ports as well as the fingerprint scanner stopped working. In the device manager I have 6 entries under the USB headding, all have yellow triangles next to them, all display an error code 19 in the properties.
I have tried uninstalling the devices in device manager and then performing a hard reset. I've attempted to locate the usb 3.0 host controlers for my laptop, but I've had no joy and I've tried running both the Microsoft and HP update facalities to try and force a driver update but so far nothing.
Somebody please help because I'm banging my head against the wall at this point.

Hello, @LeapM
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you cannot use any USB ports or the fingerprint scanner. That you have error code 19. I will try to assist you with this.
Here is a Microsoft document that may help you: Error codes in Device Manager in Windows. It will explain what the error code is and provide steps to try and resolve.
Let me know how this goes for you.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

Lost the keyboard backlight, use of my USB ports and camera shows as disconnected. How do I fix this?

Please help. I'm still a MAC rookie.
I unplugged my Pedometer from one of the USB ports on my Macbook Pro. Ever since then, I lost the backlight to my keyboard. I did some troubleshooting on these discussion boards and found a few with similar issues, but most of the discussions were old and the solutions were out of date. As one of them advised, I checked to see if my Isight Camera was still connected and it wasn't. I also tried plugging a few different things into both USB ports and neither of them worked either. So whatever caused this, it's affecting all 3 of these things. I don't know if my Pedometer is old/bad and it "short-circuited" the USB port and everything else along with it when I unplugged it or if something coincidentally went bad at the same time that I removed it.
I read some old answers from the discussion boards where they suggested a Command (R) system recovery reboot. But I also read that that really doesn't help on newer operating systems. I am on OS X. Here is my Hardware Overview:
Model Name:          MacBook Pro
Model Identifier:          MacBookPro5,4
Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed:          2.53 GHz
Number Of Processors:          1
Total Number Of Cores:          2
L2 Cache:          3 MB
Memory:          4 GB
Bus Speed:          1.07 GHz
I did recently purchase a backup drive and I THINK I previously backed everything up properly. But, I can't even plug that into the USB port now to see if I
can somehow use that to fix this since the ports aren't working. I have no idea what to do. Does anyone have any suggestions? Please!?
Thanks in advance!

USB ports and sound have stopped working

As the subject reads, all 3 of my USB ports have stopped working and all sound. In the device manager I receive a (code 10) for realtek high definition audio. I have done everything I can think of at this point, I have even done a complete OS reinstall. Afterwards I have also updated with every possible driver file I can find from realtek and toshiba, I really don't know what else to do at this point, any thoughts? advice? anybody else with this problem?
Windows 7
Toshiba Satellite
L505D-S5983

Same here. I have an L505D that is doing the same exact thing. No sound device, all USB ports not working and the SD card reader not working either. Also when you close the lid and reopen it, the machine won't wake up. Have to restart to get it to come back. Haven't found ANYTHING in forums to help.
Sound devices, USB ports and SD card doesn't show up in the Device Manager.
Took the laptop to a local fixer-upper. Unhooked the charger, took battery out, put battery back in, then restarted the laptop without being hooked up to the charger and everything came back on. But only for a short while. After a couple of days, it does its thing all over again.
Are we looking at a mother board issue here? SURELY someone out there in cyber space has a solution.

Wireless Mouse and Keyboard don't work under bootcamp. Any suggestions?

I installed Windows 7 through Boot Camp. Everything works, but my wireless mouse and keyboard. If I add a wired mouse and keyboard, they work. Have reinstalled Bootcamp a few times, but when I try and add the devices. they are seen, but then can't pair.
Any help would be appreciated.

Well, the 'unplugged' reference was noted earlier and I wasn't sure if you'd get a
better response than a standard suggestion to try the other ideas in this link first
•Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support
before actually performing the SMC, that is a dragnet kind of catch-all, sometimes.
All of my keyboard & mouse units are USB and I've gone as far as supplying the
mouse and other peripherals with a powered USB hub; so power from the Mac
isn't spread too thin. The keyboard is one of the only items that should be attached
to the USB port; as it has to work on startup pre-boot keyboard shortcuts... Such
as SafeBoot, PRAM reset, and others where you need a live keyboard and BT
may not be up to the task of being ready. Three going on four of my Macs have
bluetooth capabilities for those items; but I can't justify the continual upkeep cost.
Spare USB keyboards and a few extra mouse are handy as troubleshooting tools, too.
There are some USB keyboard references among search results in this linked page:
https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=Apple+USB+keyboard+troubleshooting
Perhaps the SMC pre-reset suggestions may help resolve the issue, if not, try reset.
Good luck & happy computing!

I have just recently lost use of 2 USB ports and my isight camera. I have an isight G5 imac that has been working great. I have rebooted, reloaded my OS, and tried PRAM reset. I can use my keyboard, but not other peripherals. Any ideas on diagnostics?

I have just recently lost use of 2 USB ports and my isight camera. My keyboard works fine, but there is not any indication of connections when probing USB in "About this MAC". I have rebooted, executed a PRAM reset, and reloaded my OS, but to no avail I am out 2 of my 3 USB ports. I don't know how to diagnose the issue. Any ideas?

Well, if you've tried different USB cords and devices and have reset your PRAM:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
And SMC:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
I'd say your USB ports are shot - since they are an integral part of the logic board, replacing it will most likely be expensive. I'd still go for a definitive diagnosis at the Genius Bar.

USB ports and memory card slots not working

My Pavilion a6120n desktop has worked brilliantly ever since I purchased it. As of last week the 2 usb ports in the front and the 2 unused usb ports in the back have stopped working. My printer is plugged into one rear port and my wireless mouse is plugged into a second rear port and these work fine. I generally use a memory stick for data swapping or the card reader slots (which have also stopped working). I no longer see the memory card icons in the "Computer" window. When installing something new the "New Hardware Found" statement pops up but the driver install always fails. I think it is a software issue but there are no usb drivers to download on the HP/support site that I can find. . . so . . . Below is what I have tried so far.Run antivirus software. Full scan & memory scan - no issuesRun malewarebytes full scan - no issues I have tried restarting several times with no success. Restore to several previous restore points = failedRestarting computer in repair mode = failedRun the repair disk that I had made = failedChecked the power management for each usb port to see if the power was routed properly = okRemoved the case cover and carefully inspected the wiring and connectors.finally I tried uninstalling the usb drivers = failed Upon restarting the computer the last time the startup file must have failed and after several hours of attempting a repair I had to reinstall the Window 7 completely. Still no usb or memory card function. Any help would be appreciated Thanks,MrBob38

The only time the sound/speaker and mic don't work is when I answer or make a call

The only time the sound/speaker and mic don't work is when I answer or make a call. They both work fine for everything else. This has been going on for over a month. AT&T said it's Apple and Apple said it's AT&T. I've been around that cycle twice.
When I dial a call, I can see the status words on the screen but can't hear the ringing. If the person I'm calling answers, my screen will show the call was connected and the call timer will begin but I can't hear anything and they can't hear me. If one of us doesn't end the call, the timer keeps going and I'm being 'charged' for dead air. (Of course, one of us disconnects so mins/cost isn't an issue, I'm just adding the info in case it helps solve the problem.) If they don't answer, the call will go to their greeting but I can't hear it and wouldn't be able to leave a message anyway because my voice isn't going through. However, they will get a voice mail alert and see that I called but no message was recorded.
If some one tries to call me they will hear ringing but when I answer, they can't hear me and I can't hear them. If I don't answer, they will hear my greeting and can leave a message. I can retrieve and hear my voice mail. Trying speaker phone and headsets didn't change anything for calls out nor for calls in.
I have 4.3.3 and have synched, reset, rebooted, turned things on and off and off and on and took the SIM card out of the phone and out of it's tray and put it back in. I've done all that several times in just about every combination and order possible.
Hopefully the following will provide good clues: On only about three of the many attempts I've made to get it to work correctly that included taking out the SIM card, I could make and/or get one or two calls with no trouble but then the problem comes back. Also, when I swapped the SIM card with another iPhone4 on my plan, the other phone would work with my SIM card but my phone still would not work with the other SIM card. The last fact makes me think it is an Apple issue. I'll go to an Apple store (genius) this weekend. Will I be wasting my time and gas? Anybody have any experience with this problem?

Let me try and address some of your questions. I'm only on a pc, so a few of these answers might be slightly different on a Mac, but not too different (such as control click rather than right click).
First, when you buy something on your phone, be it apps or music, it's transferred from your phone to your Mac when you sync your phone. So those apps should now be in you iTunes library. ( IF for some reason you can't find them there, you should be able to download them again, either onto your phone or through iTunes. On your phone, go to the App Store > Updates and you'll see a "Purchased" link at the top of the page, you can view all purchased apps here and redownload them. In iTunes, you can go to Store > Check for available downloads. )
Whenever you plug your phone in, it should create a backup of everything you have on the phone. This is how, provided restoring your phone as a new device doesn't fix the issue (more on this later), you can put all of your music and apps onto the new phone. You can always plug your phone into your Mac and the first thing it should do when it syncs is create a backup. If you want to be sure, you can right click on your device in iTunes (on a pc) or I assume control click on a Mac and select "backup".
The genius will take care of the sim card and setting up your phone, however you will have to put all of your music and apps on it, unless you ask the genius, I've never bothered since I know how to do this.
You should have no problems restoring from a backup if they give you a new phone. However, it's probably safest to try and create a backup of your last phone backup before you restore it as a new device. I suggest you refer to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414 for more information about that.
I've had no problems with my new phone so far.
I'll try to keep checking this thread if you have any other questions or need more clarification.
Edit: I should say we never did figure out what exactly was wrong with my phone. The only thing I can think of was that it got a lot hotter than the phone it replaced, and also the phone I just got yesterday to replace the malfunctioning one. But otherwise they saw no problems with the hardware, but acknowledged it must have been the hardware since we tried everything else. Also I would go with a list of all the things you tried with this phone, for your own reference and the genius's, especially if you're not confident in your tech skills Showing the genius that you've tried: different sim cards, updating the software, restoring it from a backup, and now restoring it as a new device, should convince them that you've done everything you could, and the only other answer is hardware problem.
Also if you don't already have one, make a genius appointment ASAP. Most stores are very busy and their appointments fill up fast. I always suggest making an appointment as early as possible, hopefully before the retail store hours when they've only got techs there because they usually are less stressed and have a bit more time to spend with you. The easiest way to make an appointment is to download the Apple Store app. It detects the closest Apple store from you and makes it quite easy to schedule a genius.
