T500 won't recognize USB - Windows 7 Home Premium

I have a T500 that will not recognize any of the USB ports or the SD card reader. I have flashed the bios, checked the bios settings on boot up(USB is enabled), deleted the USB drivers in Windows 7 and reinstalled. Nothing has worked so far. Haven't tried the USB ports on a docking station with the machine docked yet. I am stumped. Can anyone help?

Smells like a disconnected wiring harness. I'm not positive, but I think the card reader and ports are on the same bus.
Open it up and check.

WAV Files won't play on Windows Vista Home Premium

We have a HP Desktop PC running Windows Vista Home Premium. Just recently, certian sound files quit playing. We also noticed that the system sounds quit working as well. After looking into it more, I figured out that the drivers are all up to date, that iTunes plays music just fine, and that the internal error beeper in the tower replaced the error.wav when an error window pops up. I have run defragment, check disk, and other system scanners. None of these seemed to help. Does anyone know what the problem may be?

Have you checked the HP Website and Microsoft Support websites to see if they have any solutions to your problem? Since there could be multiple things causing this, I would check at the places I mentioned first and see if their knowledge base contains an answer.

Itunes won't start in Windows Vista Home Premium

I have an HP Pavillion dv6000 laptop that I just got around christmas, and it is running vista homem premium.
Everything was working great until about a week ago, I started itunes, and windows just comes up telling me that itunes has stoppoed working, and it is trying to find a solution to my problem. Then it just goes away, and nothing happens.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled, running a registry cleaner inbetween, i've deleted all the files in my library inbetween the installs to try and make itunes creat a new library. I've unistalled the ace mega codecs pack on my computer. Nothing works.
Any ideas?

please, help me..
this has been bugging me for so long because i cant put new music on my ipod

My HP laptop with windows 8 won't recognize any library with home sharing; although the other computers do.

My HP laptop with windows 8 won't recognize any library with home sharing; although the other computers do.
I've tried activating and deactivating home sharing multiple times, any other reason why this is happening?
Thanks

A couple of other things you might like to try :-
- Determine whether you are able to access the internet from anywhere else on your new PC (e.g. do Windows updates download ? Can you access the Windows 8 store ? ) If the answer is no, then your problem doesn't lie with IE but with the actual wireless connection. If the answer is yes, then continue as below.
- Run IE from the desktop instead of the Start screen - probably won't make any difference, but worth a try.
- Download a decent browser like Firefox or Chrome and try that - this will show whether the problem lies just with IE or not
- As a general rule, don't do anything that PC World tell you to do, lol !
As gg30340 says, this does sound very much like it MAY be a problem with firewall settings - if you're running Norton Antivirus then I believe that will be providing the firewall service, rather than the inbuilt Windows firewall.
One thing you don't need to worry about - Windows 8 is a perfectly good OS and works just as well as Windows 7 did. I'm using it now !

Windows 7 home premium booted off boot camp won't connect to Internet

I installed windows 7 home premium on my Mac book pro and when I started it up it complained that it had no Internet. Everywhere I've looked people say that you have to install the drivers from the Mac osx disk but I have the problem of I installed mountain lion off of a flash drive and so I can't format the drive without loosing everything on it. Someone please help me!

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
As it looks like you haven't installed Boot Camp drivers, I am going to tell you how you can install them when you have OS X Mountain Lion:
1. Press X key while your Mac is starting to boot into OS X and open Boot Camp Assistant.
2. Follow the steps and only tick the option to download the Windows support software. Then, it will ask you to burn the drivers into a DVD or USB drive, so do it.
3. Start into Windows, insert the DVD or USB drive and install Boot Camp drivers.
On Mountain Lion and Lion, you have to download Boot Camp drivers from Apple instead of installing them from the OS X DVD, as it was possible with Leopard and Snow Leopard

C4580 won't run wirelessly on driver downloaded for Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

Got a new computer with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. c4580 not compatible with Windows 7. Working with HP Instant Care, downloaded Windows driver for c4500 series all-in-one printers. Printer now works using USB cable but does not work wirelessly. Techs from HP were to call me back within 48hrs (from 2/11). No callback. Still have open service ticket 8034746768 but have spent so many hrs on my cellphone with HP I have run way over my allowed minutes per month, about $80. worth. Hesitate for that reason to call them again. Can anyone help?

Have you looked through this page?

T500 Windows 7 Home Premium Bit to Bit transition

I bought a T500 with 4GB of RAM and Windows 7 Home Premium 32Bit Russian
As I read in When is it possible to switch between 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Microsoft Operating Systems by u..., I "might" have the rights to put in its place 64Bit OS.
Local support is unfortunately can not say anything useful.
Supporter told me that at the moment there are no codes for certain Recovery Media. And will it appears or not - unknown.
Anybody knows will be the new versions of the Recovery Media or not. And if not, whether there is any other opportunity to put the64 Bit version OS with Lenovo key.

Hi,
In a peer-to-peer setup, every computer are both client and server. each computer communicates directly with others in the network. It's much more common in the home.
You need have a router (possibly with wireless capability) and the necessary Ethernet cords to run the router to the modem and from the router to all of your computers.
Then add them in the same workgroup or HomeGroup.
Here is a detailed guide, please follow that step by step:

With Windows 7 Home Premium, whenever I start iTunes, I get a message that colors have been reverted to Windows Basic because iTunes won't support my Windows Aero configuration. Is there a fix for the incompatibility?

With Windows 7 Home Premium, whenever I start iTunes, I get a message that colors have been reverted to Windows Basic because iTunes won't support my Windows Aero configuration. Is there a fix for the incompatibility? I don't mind the color changes, but I'm having an external speaker problem that could be related to the incompatibility (at random times--usually several hours after start-up, my external speakers--connected via my Samsung Central Station's wireless docking station and computer-installed dongle--shut off and won't play until I restart. I've investigated other options, but iTunes may be the problem.) Thanks.

Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

Repair permissions and restart your computer. Also, check System Preferences/Printe & Fax. Make sure your printer is listed.

I have windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.

Hp pavillion a6500f product#KQ495AA-ABA windows vista - home premium 64 bit Won't boot

Hi - I cannot boot my desktop hp pavillion. error message says put in an installation disk - don't have. and also says file 32/boot missing or corrupt. tried recovery group of three disks but doesn't do a thing???? Don't want to loose data what is best route to take? thanks

Hi xbill,
What is the exact message you have?
So far I understand you have a corrupted windows vista with an error message mentioning a missing or corrupted somthing32 file.
Your data should not be impacted at the moment (based on what you wrote).
What you may want to do at the moment is get a windows vista home premium 64 as it may be used to recover the missing/corrupted file(s).
An external hard drive to backup your files and finally a bootable CD to allow you to start your machine to backup your files.
But the first thing we need before we go any further is the exact error message.
Cheers,

It always Bootcamp asistent 4 doesn't recognize Windows 7 Home Premium install disc

Hi there,
I've search half a day for answers in already existing threads but haven't found a solution, so now I dare ask this question.
I have a Imac Mac OSX 10.7.5
Processor 2,7 Ghz Intel Core i5
Memory RAM 4GB 1333 MHs DDR3
I want to install with Bootcamp (version 4) Windows 7 Home Premium but after have tried numerous times Boot camp says that it cannot find the installation disc. I downloaded an ISO version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit from the website http://best-windows.vlaurie.com/boot-disks.html#full
and burned it on DVD-RW 4.7GB (TX). I also tried various other versions which I burned but with the same result. I wonder it's the type of DVD I use or the versions. Bootcamp doesn't accept burned installation discs?
If somebody can help me I would be thankful
greetings
Guy

Unfortunately, you can't buy just a key. Well, large organizations can get site license codes, or multiple individual codes so they aren't buying hundreds of boxes of media when you only need one, or a few for distribution. If you were able to get a working disk put together from the download, you'll only be able to get a short way into the installer, and then you'll be stuck.
The only other way to legitimately purchase a key is if you already own a legal copy of the OS, and just want another key so you can install Windows on another computer without buying another box. For that, you contact Microsoft where they can verify the key you already have (you read it to them, of course), and they will then sell you another key.
The sure way to have it work of course is to buy a copy of Win 7. It has to be a full retail copy, not an upgrade box. There is a way to use an upgrade disk, but you also must have a legitimate previous version the Win 7 installer can see. Meaning, you need two DVD drives. I did find a few sites selling just activation keys, but they were of course all illegal as the sites had nothing to do with Microsoft.
1) When looking for Win 7, be very careful on eBay. Purchase only an unopened box. Otherwise, chances are high the key has already been used by someone else.
2) There are system builder versions, such as you see listed here. Those are OEM disks that were supposed to be bundled with the sale of a particular PC model. Microsoft themselves say you can purchase these OEM disks and use them, but they are a one time installation. Once the key has been used, it is tied to that specific hardware. So if you were to get a new Mac and wanted to install Win 7 again, you wouldn't be able to from that disk. You can find these all over the place ranging from $85 to $95.
Be forewarned that full retail (non system builder OEM copies) of Win 7 have gotten very pricey.

HT3986 iMac 27" late 2009 model won't read Windows 7 Home Premium DVD.

Hello everyone,
I am trying to Partition my Hardrive and install Windows 7.
Unlike the guides on youtube in order to partition the Hard drive windows 7 has to be installed i.e. the 'Partition' button in Bootcamp is replaced with 'Install'.
My OS is MountainLion, Bootcamp is up-to-date version 5.0.1.
I put my Fightclub DVD and it read fine, the Windows 7 Home Premium DVD however doesn't even appear in Finder.
Any suggestions are welcomed and greatly appreciated.

Bump.
Still not working. Have cleaned the reader and other DVD's work, just isolated to my original Windows Home Premium 7 DVD.

TS1538 I have an iPod Touch IOS 4.2.1 that Windows 7 home premium can't see. Says there's a driver problem. My other one with IOS 5.1.1 works on the same cable and computer. I don't know where to go.

I have an iPod Touch with 4.2.1 that won't connect to my Windows 7 Home Premium laptop. It gives a "USB Device Not Recognized" error when I plug it in to a USB port. My wife's (newer) iPod Touch with IOS 5.1.1 works just fine with no errors. I'm using the same port - I just moved the cable from one iPod to the other. I've tried the various different drivers using Update Drivers. I let it search the internet and it says "The best driver software is already installed", but the device shows as "Unknown Device". I did the browse my computer, unchecked the "Show compatible hardware", and selected Apple, Inc.. There were two Apple iPod USB Drivers. One was 6.0.9999.53 and the other was 6.0.9999.61. Neither of these works. I'm thinking that the maybe I need to upgrade the iPod touch software version - but I don't know how to get to it. Can this be loaded over WiFi? Any other ideas?

Does the iPod work OK?
Does it charge when connect to the computer?
Does it appear in My Computer?
Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Compare with the iPod that does work/connect.
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1
