USB 2.0 port

Is a USB 2.0 port required in order for iTunes to recognize a 5G ipod video? is there anyone out there that has been successful transfering files with a 1.0 port?
Dell Windows XP

a 1.0 port is not a standard port that will recognize the ipod. However, many people have had success with the 1.1 ports on their computer.

How do I disable only the USB 2.0 ports - K7T266 Pro2-RU

None of the USB ports on this MB will work with my Biostar 6-in-1 card reader - however, I have a VIA USB 2.0 PCI card that works fine with it. I want to disable the 2.0 ports only, and install the PCI card. The manual is not very helpful - if I only enable USB 2, which seems to be the USB 1.1 header, that DOES disable the USB 2.0 ports, but it also disables the 2 USB 1.1 ports on the MB!

Yes, and they are labled USB1, USB2 and USB3 - now I assume that these correspond to the JUSB1, JUSB2 and JUSB3 headers on the MB, with JUSB2 being the 1.1 ports on the D-LED bracket, and JUSB1 and JUSB3 being the 2.0 headers. I can only ENABLE certain USB ports in the BIOS - i.e. if I only enable JUSB2, this effectively disables the 2.0 ports - aha - it also disables the 2 1.1 ports on the back of the MB itself!!
Any other answers?

HP 2005pr USB 2.0 Port Replicator - Video not with my Surface Pro 3

Hi everyone,
I've spent tons of hours already trying to get the HP 2005pr USB 2.0 Port Replicator working with my Surface Pro 3 and no luck. I mean, the USB replication / hub works, meaning that if I plug in a USB mouse / keyboard, they work. It recognizes the device in Device Manager and the ViewSpan application is running. But if I plug in a display in the VGA, nothing happens, no monitor gets detected, and even if I "force-detect" one it still doesn't display anything.
I've tried with 3 driver versions so far:
0.2.5 - not working at all. Reboots my Surface while installing. (this one is on the device itself).
3.X - which is the first with support for Windows 8 I think. I can install it and everything works as described above - meaning no VGA.
5.3.X - same story as above.
I've tried uninstalling, restarting and uninstalling several times with both versions. No luck. And I've literally been on every forum where people have problems with the replicator and nothing helped.
Anyone had any luck getting such a setup to work?
Or any ideas on how to get it to work?
Thanks.

Hi @blinkk2
I see that you are having problem connecting an external monitor to your Microsoft Surface Pro 3 through the HP USB Port Replicator. As the USB ports are working with the mouse and keyboard we know what the Port Replicator itself is working this is going to be something with the drivers on the Surface. I would recommend contacting Microsoft Support to see if they can recommend a graphics driver for you.

USB 2.0 stopped being recognized by USB 3.0 port

Hey all,
Two days ago, I was syncing my iPod Classic (USB 2.0) with iTunes and I also had my USB 2.0 Time Machine drive plugged in (I do not think it was backing up at the time), both of these devices were plugged into the USB 3.0 ports on my 15" MacBook Pro (Mid 2012). All of a sudden, my MacBook informs me that both devices were disconnected. For the next 30 minutes, these devices connected and disconnected sporadically. I tried restarting my MacBook multiple times, I reset the PRAM multiple times, I reset the SMC multiple times, I booted into Windows 7 (I use Boot Camp) and both devices show up as unrecognized. They do not show up at all on the OS X (10.10.2) side of my computer. What's strange though, is that all USB 3.0 devices work perfectly. I tried an old USB 2.0 flash drive, didn't work.
Anyone have any thoughts? I have searched Google and these forums for the last two days to no avail.

To plug a 2.0 into a 3.0 you are using an adapter? Is this where the problem is? Even with the old flash drive? or did you also try using the 2.0 ports on your MBP? The adapter could be bad or the cables for your external devises. You did the steps you need to do to correct the problem. Other then that it would be a hardware problem. And you would need to take it to an apple store to be checked out.

Mac Pro USB and FW800 ports not working

I've been reading tons of forum entries in the Apple Support Community and in other forums. Nothing seems to answer quite what's going on with my Mac Pro Tower.
Here are the details and steps taken up to now:
- I'm running a Mac Pro Tower (MacPro 3,1, 2x 2,8GHz Quad Core, Early 2008 model), currently running OS 10.6.8
- I moved before the holidays in December and left my computer unplugged for over month while away. Didn't have any issues before the move.
- up until the last couple of weeks, I had actually been running on Leopard (yes, I'm a luddite!, please, no teasing )
- I was trying to update my ipod touch's iOS and kept getting errors preventing it from completing the process. At first I thought it was an ipod app causing the issue after having read a few threads on that topic...
- Also, on startup, the Mac started searching for a Bluetooth keyboard, of which I don't have, and would not detect my usb keyboard. I would disconnect and reconnect the keyboard and the majority of the time, the Mac would then recognize my USB keyboard.
- I decided to upgrade to Snow Leopard, which didn't help with the iPod update. I did not do a clean install.
- Then I noticed that my USB stick wasn't working and tried it in all the usb ports (except the ones on the keyboard)
- Also, I had removed and then reinstalled printer and scanner drivers for my All-in-one printer. After this I kept getting constant communication errors between the mac and the printer via the usb port, although I was able to print a test page.
- I've used Hardware Test once which didn't detect any issue.
- I reset the SMC
- I reset the PRAM, and for a few seconds I was able to read from my USB stick, then never again, even after another PRAM reset.
- I've cleaned the whole inside of the computer and checked for loose cables. Cables are in so tight it's so hard to loosen them!
- I now tested all the ports:
     ∞ the 2 front and 3 back USB ports are unresponsive to my usb key and to my VoyagerQ dock
     ∞ the front and back FW800 ports are unresponsive to my VoyagerQ dock
     ∞ However, the keyboard works in any fo the back ports and my USB stick is recorgnized by the USB port of the keyboard.
     ∞ I also plugged in my Logitech webcam into the keyboard and it works there but not in any other port.
     ∞ When I plug in USB powered speakers into any of the ports, they work fine
     ∞ And the FW400 ports are also working fine with my VoyagerQ dock
- a few times, including once today, my mac restarted by itself. The times before today, I thought it was because I was sort of moving back the computer in place, but today I was nowhere near the computer.
So what does this all mean? Should I do a clean install of the Mac OS? Or is it a problem with my Logic Board?
Any insight please would be helpful. I had Apple Care and missed the reminder to renew it so I really hoping not to spend more money than necessary.

Thanks Grant,
The battery is a start and something inexpensive to replace.
I did do a PRAM reset (command + option + P + R) and was able to hear the chime 4 times. I tried resetting it a number of times over the past week, as well as yesterday with no success in reviving the USB ports. But isn't it weird that my USB powered speakers work by plugging them in any USB port (with the mini jack pugged in the back or front earphone plug)?
I did not use the USB ports on the keyboard until yesterday, so that is not the cause of the other USB and FW800 ports failing. But I'll follow your suggestion and not use them except for the mouse.
Another weird thing that happened yesterday, I have 16GB of RAM and I spent all day trying to troubleshoot a RAM issue that is magically fixed after leaving the computer on overnight to do an extended Hardware Test. The issue was:
- Only 8 RAMS were being recognized
- a red LED light appeared on the top riser
- first I thought I had isolated the faulty RAM bar, and then a second one
- Then going pair by pair again, I no longer saw the LED light
- Put back all 8 bars, only 8 GB of RAM recognized
- Left computer overnight running Hardware test (said it took almost 3 hours, with no errors)
- Now all 16 GB are recognized!
Thanks again for the tips

2nd generation ipod shuffle not recognized by usb 3.0 port, 2nd generation ipod shuffle not recognized by usb 3.0 port

Hi,
My 2nd generation ipod shuffle will not connect to any usb 3.0 port. I've tried on to computers -- one Windows XP and the other Windows 7. Any ideas?

Hi
I had the same issue with my Late 2009 Mac mini running Mavericks and iTunes 12. When I connected my 2nd generation iPod shuffle it would blink amber once then do nothing. This seems to be a common problem with the iPod shuffle and newer versions of Mac OS X (10.6 and up) and iTunes albeit with somewhat varying symptoms but the same overall problem syncing the iPod with iTunes.
The predominant go-to solution is to give the iPod more power by either connecting the iPod directly to a USB port on the Mac or by disconnecting all other USB devices. On paper this makes sense.
What worked for me, however, was the opposite. After trying to solve this problem for hours (weeks, months), I had success ONLY after adding a low-powered 4-port USB hub to the chain between the iPod and the Mac. I suspect this had the effect of throttling the power supplied to the iPod from the Mac. I was able to perform a restore on the iPod then sync my music over.
I can't tell you much about the USB hub except that it is running at USB 1.1 speeds (12 Mb/sec). In theory a USB 1.1 extension cable should also do the trick. You might even be able to use the USB hub in old wired Apple USB keyboard. I will attach a photo of the hub I used to this post for greater clarity.
I really hope this helps.

IPod not recognised by USB 2.0 port but is by USB 1.0, how come?

iPodnano_1GB,
My silly ipod nano isn't being recognised by my recently installed usb 2.0 port.
The port is working fine as it recognises my creative player just fine, and the pc is fine as my old usb 1.0 recognises the ipod just fine.
So how come the usb 2.0 isn't picking it up. It gives an error message of 'unrecognised usb storage device'.
Hope you can help, thanks.

For those who come here...try this forum: http://whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/697583.html

USB 2.0 port no longer recognizes ext. HD; USB 3.0 seems fine W510

Have had several BSODs in last few days. Two of most recent referred to nusb3xhc.sys
Other symptoms: I have 3 WesternDigital 500GB ext. USB 2.0 HDs none of which are being recognized even when plugging directly in to laptop USB port rather than USB hub I usually use. Same USB port will show a small thumb drive. USB 3.0 laptop port still works. While the WD HDs are all older, worked several days ago but now never show up in Windows Explorer and the tray icon for USB never shows them as I typically click on the latter to eject an ext. USB HD.
Recent changes to laptop:
1) 6.1.2014 installed MS OneDrive (and also on tablet). version 17.0.4041.0512
2) Control Panel add/remove programs shows that Dropbox installed version 2.8.2 just before OneDrive
3) Subsequent to above I did routine Windows update of Important items with no problems. However for several years since about IE 9 or perhaps 10, I have been unable to get IE to install and work, and have been using Chrome for years. I mention this to give fuller picture, but doubt that it is related to current issue.
4) Aside from typical routine updates e.g. Java, Bitdefender antivirus I have not intentionally installed any other software recently.
============
I have barely begun using MS OneDrive so am happy to uninstall it, or go to restore point prior to its installation. BSOD prior to this might have occurred 1 or 2x per year.
I'm pretty good at following directions if they are complete e.g. need full path if you want me to find something on my HD.
Lenovo website for machine type 4318CTO running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit indicates that driver version for USB 3.0 dated 1/22/2010 versin 1.0.19.0 is up to date and that it is NEC device. Device Manager also says is up to date. There is one USB 3.0 port on rear of laptop and two USB 2.0 on side. HP website shows more recent NEC USB 3.0 driver dated 9/16/2011 version 2.0.32.0
Thanks for your knowledge, skill, and help.

I always thought that high-speed USB was USB 1.1. I thought that USB 2.0 was full-speed. But my iMac Core 2 Duo has USB 2.0 (I'm sure) and it says that my iMac has a USB High-speed bus.
Your PowerBook G4 might need service, go to your local Apple Store and see someone there about it. I'm pretty sure that you have a hardware problem.
Steps:
1. Try connecting another USB 2.0 device to that same port. If the device works you have a problem with your iPod. (This is a long shot.) If this happens you should reinstall iPod software.
2. Try reinstalling iTunes.
3. Try calling AppleCare technical support.
4. Try reinstalling Mac OS X. (If AppleCare hasn't told you do this already.)
5. You have a hardware problem. Go to an Apple Store to get it fixed.

USB 2 hub only works on USB 3.0 ports

I have a USB 2.0 hub manufactured by Plugable (part number USB2-HUB-AG7) that I am trying to use with my
HP DV6t-6b00 laptop. The hub and all devices works normally with the USB 3.0 ports but does't work at all with the USB 2.0 ports. This behavior happens even when no devices are plugged into the hub. The hub also works normally in other my other computers (a HP 6910 laptop and a Dell desktop).
Has anyone seen this occur before? I would like to use the the hub but don't want to lose a USB 3 port to plug in a USB 2 hub.

I understand that USB devices do not work in the USB 2.0 ports.
What happens when USB devices are used in the 2.0 ports? Does Windows behave as if it has detected them or does it give an error message?
Do devices work in the 2.0 ports without going through the USB hub?
Is the HUB working off USB power or does it have a dedicated power adapter?

Usb to serial port converter in lenova g560

hi this is madhan. i m using lenova g560 ideapad. there is no serial port in my laptop. For my project i need a serial port. i heard tat in market USB to serial port converters are available. Does Lenova g560 support this change?? If so is there any driver to make support to serial port?????????

If you buy a Serial-USB interface/cable you won't have any problem. Usually this accesory comes with drivers. If you have Windows 7, mayte it will detect all automaticaly.

Usb to Serial port adapter

I have a gilsson usb to serial port bi directional adapter cable which uses the Prolific pl-2303 chipset. I am attempting to use this cable to interface a Mac Mini with a Harsper PDP plasma television.
I am attempting to control the functions of the television via the serial port on the television. i.e. Turn on, input, volume, etc.
What I need is software, or source code that would allow me to send hexidecimal commands to the television and receive the task completed codes.

ZTerm will allow serial communications. Get it to ensure that throughput is happening as expected.
RealBasic will allow you to roll your own with a fair amount of ease.
A long time ago I used the above to communicate with my cellphone to send and receive text messages via the serial port, so I know it can work. Understanding the protocols is the difficult part...

USB 2.0 ports on MS-6398E board

I'm new to the MSI forums so bear with me if my style of posting is not yet quite right.
I've got an MS-6398E motherboard and in Win2K the Device Manager lists one USB 2.0 root hub and 3 USB root hubs (no numeric designation).
When I check the properties sheet for each root hub the USB 2.0 root hub shows 6 ports available and with a single device on each of 2 of the other 3 hubs it shows 1, 1 and 2 ports available.
Patently something is not right because it seems that I have 12 ports in total on a motherboard that only has 6 to begin with.
Ideally I would like the 2 devices I currently have plus any future devices to run off the USB 2.0 ports because they're faster.
So I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

I just installed my new GNB Max a few hours ago and it uses the same ICH4 southbridge as your board so therfor all the peripherals are the same.
I also see 6 ports on the USB2.0 hub and 2 on each of the other ones.
Looks normal to me since they all seem to work.

USB 3.0 port thinks it is USB 2.0

I just bought a new HP ENVY 15-j101tu Notebook PC. When I plug the external USB 3.0 hard drive the system pops up message saying the device can perform faster when connected to USB 3.0. The speed of file transfer from laptop to the external hard disk is then very slow. To my understanding this laptop comes with all USB 3.0 port.
Please help to fix this problem. Many thanks in advance

The usb ports on the right and left hand side are usb 3.0.
What is the brand and model of your external usb 3.0 hard drive?
Have you tried the usb 3.0 external hard drive on a different PC to see how Windows reacts to it?

What is wrong with my 30" Cinema Display? The USB and FireWire ports still work, but the screen is pitch black. When you plug it into the computer, it detects that it's a Cinema Display.

When you plug it into the computer, it detects that it's a Cinema HD but the screen is pitch black.
For some reason, the USB and FireWire ports still work.

If you shine a really bright light directly into the screen can you then see a faint image on the screen? If so, that would indicate the backlight has died (hardware failure) and the unit needs repairing.

USB 3.0 ports not working after upgrading to Windows 8.1

I have an Asus WIndows 8 laptop that I just upgraded to Windows 8.1 today. My USB 3.0 ports have started acting up. At first they recognized some of my external hard drives but not others. I tested all of the external hard drives and they work fine on my
other machines. I've tested the wires as well. Now, when I plug my external hard drives into the USB 3.0 ports, none of them work at all. All of them work fine on the 2.0 USB port though. How can I get my USB 3.0 ports working again?

my logic is like this, this motherboard is tested by Operating system that listed at download driver, you can check here
http://www.msi.com/product/mb/970AG46.html#/?div=Driver&os=Win8 64
there is an update 1.16.12 for USB ASMedia USB 3.0 Driver but for Windows 8
In order to worked with Windows 8.1, you need the updated driver, because this motherboard comes before Windows 8.1 launched

USING AC ADAPTER WITH USB 2.0 PORT

I recently installed a new EA6500 wireless router (AC1750). I also bought some wireless AC USB adapters (WUSB6300). Will use of the AC USB adapters increase network speed if they have to be plugged into the USB 2.0 ports on my laptops?

The WUSB6300 utilizes the USB 3.0 standard. However, the adapter is backward compatible with USB 2.0 ports. The WUSB6300 could support up to 300 Mbps for 2.4 Ghz and upto 866.7 Mbps for 5 Ghz.
