USB ports won't work

Hi, I recently bought a Probook 4441s-445TX. I installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on it but I couldn't get my 2 USB ports on the right side of my laptop to work. I looked into this and it seems like HP Probooks series have similar issue as well. The USB ports on the right (USB 2.0) don't work at all, they won't recognize any devices nor they can recharge any devices via USB cable. 
Any suggestion? Am I missing a driver here (I checked Device Manager and it says I miss one driver but it's unknown device with Hardware ID "ACPI/HPQ6000" which I still couldn't find the driver for it, btw, but I don't think it has anything to do with the USB ports. 

Hi:
If the notebook is still under warranty, it is time for you to call HP technical support.
Good luck,
Paul

  • Mail Client Crashing, Mac Messenger won't connect, 1 USB port won't work!!!

    Any ideas on why my macbook pro has the above probs.....Wen I open mail and click on a message, Mal just crashes and gives me a message to relaunch. MSN won't connect no matter how many times i reinstall it and my son decided to unplug his Ipod from the usb port and now anything i plug into the port isn't recognised.......Pleeeeeeaaassseeeee Help!!!!! TY

    Both cables (Cat5e and Cat6) that I used was tested with my WD live hub and worked at 1 Gbps. The Cat5e is not shielded and I'm fairly confident the Cat 6 cable is unshielded as well. I should mention at this point that I've made my own network patch leads for over 10 years now and my networking career started out using coax cables. I would say that I know what I'm doing and can concluded with 100% certainty that it is not the cables.
    After installing Windows 7 through Bootcamp there is not even an option in the network adapter setting to set the speed any faster than 100 Mbps.
    After going to my local Apple store (30 Km away in London!) the genius I spoke with suggested I book a slot and bring it in for them to test to determine if a new logic board should be ordered. I must be honest, I thought however I spoke with would treat me like an idiot and try and blame anything but the mac but she listened and agreed with my assessment and suggested I bring it it for a test.

  • Mac pro usb ports won't work when ipod is plugged in

    I just bought a used Mac Pro (2008). 8 cores, 12 meg 0f ram, all of this so I wouldnt be limited as I was with my 4 meg Imac. I go to plug in my ipod, and none of the other ports work, I can't use the mouse or keyboard. Is there any way around this. I had to plug the ipod directly into the tower (the port wouldnt work) This is frustrating, I get this model to be more than capable for what I need, and something like this pops up...always something. If anyone out there has had this experience, and figured out a work around, please help. Thanks

    okay, that doesn't sound usual. Sounds to me like the usb port is drawing too much power. Try doing a repair permission or SMC reset. If you are using it with a USB hub, maybe that needs plugging in to the wall, or maybe it has gone bad. I can't help you a lot, but just a little bit. repairing permissions is through Disk Utility. SMC goes like this:  shut down the Mac pro, unplug the power cord,  wait 15-20 seconds. reattach power cord, wait about 15 seconds, then press power button. you can maybe try resetting the PRAM-shut down Mac, turn on computer, hold down Command, Option,P and R keys before grey screen appears. Hold down until computer restarts again and you hear the 2nd startup sound. Let go of the keys.  You can also check in "About this mac" (more info) to see if there's something wrong with the USB ports themselves.
    Other than that, could be logic board battery. Maybe Archive and install. Sorry, the crystal ball has gone dark. I"m sure someone else can enlighten you more than I can.  I always plugged my ipod directly into my tower via the front USB port...

  • MacBook Pro closest to the screen USB port doesn't work

    Hey there!
    I have a mid-2010 MacBook Pro 6,2 (15" 2,66 GHz i7 4GB RAM) which is in perfect conditions. I use it everyday to study and play the X-Plane simulator, basically, so it has never fallen nor taken any damage. Last week, all of the sudden, the USB port located closest to the screen stopped working. I've spent several hours trying to figure out what the problem is (tried the SMC and NVRAM reset more than once) but all I got was this log from USB Prober:
    Feb 12 21:46:26.196  [2]
    BRCM2070 Hub[0xffffff800bcc0c00]::DeviceRequest _DeviceRequestWithTimeout runAction() failed (0xe00002ed)
    Feb 12 21:46:26.197  [3]
    IOUSBDeviceUserClientV2[0xffffff80151f7200]::DeviceRequestIn (sync < 4k) err:0xe00002ed (device is not responding)
    Feb 12 21:46:26.197  [3]
    IOUSBDeviceUserClientV2[0xffffff80151f7200]::DeviceRequestIn < 4K to 0xffffff800bcc0c00 - returning err e00002ed, size: 0
    I imagine that the problem is in the BRCM2070 Hub, as it's status in the "Port Status" section is "STATUS(change): CONNECT ENABLE SUSPEND POWER Full Speed" and "Port Power State: Suspended (Driver)", while my other USB port which is working okay is "STATUS(change): POWER Full Speed" and "Port Power State: No connection". If I connect anything to the problematic USB Port the status won't change, while, if connected to the okay one, it will show what's connected instead of saying "No Connection" (e.g. iPhone). The only thing that gives a sign of life when connected to the problematic one is my Samsung External 500GB HD, but it simply lights up, doesn't mount nor is recognised. After a minute it turns off while still connected. I don't know how to proceed as I don't have any Apple Stores near me.
    Is there anyway to work this problem out or I should just wait until the end of this year to go to the US and take my machine to a Genius? This problem is really annoying me, as I frequently use one of the ports to charge my iPhone and the other one to connect my mouse. I'm thinking about buying an USB hub to bypass the problem, but it would kill my MBP's portability.

    I solved my issue and I believe it was router related. I have a router through Verizon and their Fios service. My router was old so I caled for a replacement. when I received thereplacement I switched it the router to only accept 802.11n and this did the trick. Problem solved, stupid router.

  • USB Ports Aren't Working

    I have a HP pavilion g series laptop. I'm not sure what it is or anything, that's all I know about it.
    But anyway, my USB ports aren't working.
    I tried plugging in my mouse and i tried plugging in my xbox 360 controller, the lights come on for a few seconds on both of them, but then they went off and my computer won't pick them up.
    What do I do to fix it this problem?

    Try to go into device manager and see if you have any yellow !s or red triangles near the usb ports. Remove all the usb ports and hubs and reboot the machine.  The drivers should reload automatically. Do the hard reset by removing the battery, unplugging the power adaptor, holding in the power button for a full minute, putting the battery and power adaptor back in and try it again.

  • Printer connected to Airport Express USB port won't come online after firmware 7.6 upgrade. I've tried backing up to 7.5.2, but it still shows offline. It is a Canon iP4600 printer and I'm running OS 10.6.8. I've powered everything down and still no go.

    Printer connected to Airport Express USB port won't come online after firmware 7.6 upgrade. I've tried backing up to 7.5.2, but it still shows offline. It is a Canon iP4600 printer and I'm running OS 10.6.8. I've powered everything down and still no go. I've connected the printer directly to my MacBook's USB port and it works fine. Any suggestions?

    I have an iP4500, which I assume is quite similar to your model.
    I had to reset the printing system to get things printing again. Only takes a few minutes and no problems at all since I did it a week ago or so.
    Plug the printer into the USB port on the Express and restart the printer.
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock) and then open Print and Fax
    Right-Click in the printer area on the left and select Reset Printing System
    Then click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list to install the printer again.

  • USB Headset won't work along with Audi

    First off, when searching for this problem, I saw many posts explaining why USB headsets won't work with a soundcard cause they basically have one built in to them. I understand this.
    This is not my problem.
    This is my problem:
    I have a Plantronics Gamecom Pro USB headset that worked great when I was using onboard sound. It would automatically intercept the first sound signal it could pick up. So if I plugged it in first, before starting a game, the headset would pick up all sound from the game.. nothing to my external speakers.
    If I started the game first with the headset unplugged, then plugged them in then started Ventrillo, then the headset would pick up the Ventrilo sound but the game sound still came from my speakers. Perfect set-up.
    However, after adding an Audigy 4, the headset no longer works at all. No sound, no mic.. I plugged the headset ito my laptop and it works fine so I am pretty sure it's some sort of conflict with the Audigy 4.
    I'm not too much of a techy but I'm thinking perhaps the Audigy 4 keeps a lock on the sound signal somehow, not letting the headset pick it up on the USb port?
    Does anyone else have a problem using a USB headset not WITH but ALONG SIDE an Audigy?Message Edited by CroakerJoe on 0-2-2006 03:55 PM

    I have the same usb headset and am having the same issue with my pc. I am running the X-fi Platinum. The plantronics are supposed to be a plug and play, but when i plug it in, the headset is getting power, is recognized by the pc and other applications, but will not play any sounds at all, and it works on my other machine with an older card. It seems to be overridden by the new card. when i was running the old audigy i could use one or the other (not both at the same time) which is to be expected with this type of headset, but i did not expect the new card to totally not allow the head set to work at all. This is causing me trouble as i use my rig for alot of gaming and LAN parties. Speakers are often not allowed, and the plantronics gamecom pro headset is a sweet set for gaming. If anyone sees this and can provide a fix. I would greatly appreciate it.

  • Random Errors fix one another pops up - One USB port won't install device's drivers

    I am trying to get this computer to work and every time I fix something another issue shows up. It is like a sinking boat in a carton. First it was slow and just acting up. After a few tweaks I got RestoreHealth to run and fix the issue. No SFC isn't reporting
    any errors. For the longest time chkdisk wouldn't run manually but every startup it would run says checking.. fixing... fixed. This would happen on every startup now that is solved and it reports back okay. There were some drivers not working got
    those working. Visual Studio had some sensor drivers that were reporting errors to it is uninstalled to rule out that. Currently one USB port won't install any drivers for the device plugged in, or use a driver already installed. Other ports work and all the
    devices plugged in work in other ports. I would assume the port is bad but there are some programs that used to work and now don't. I am thinking there is an issue installing programs but I am out of my depth currently.
    One think I am wondering is about a line in the CBS.log. I really wish I could find a resource to learn more about how to read the logs. I know how to read some but there are things I just don't get, yet. A link to an article(s) about CBS logs
    would be great. 
    Here is the line I am curious about, even if it isn't part of the current issue I would like to know for futurereference:

  • USB ports does not work

    Hi I have problems with not working USB ports. It used to work. I downloaded actual drivers at msi.com for my gaming notebook GX 60 Destroyer and now my USB ports does not work. What should I do?

    What driver have you updated?
    Try to do an EC firmware reset by removing the battery and the AC adapter then put the battery back with AC adapter attached.
    Same questions like Pegasus asked, does all ports not working? which one exactly? What OS are you using?
    Have you done any changes to the system? (for example: self-install OS or changing OS)

  • USB ports don't work after resuming from standby with Windows 8 on X230 tablet

    I have just done a clean install of Windows 8 on my X230 tablet.  Before installing Windows 8 I installed the most recent BIOS for this machine (version 2.50).  After installing Windows 8 I installed System Update from the Lenovo Website and downloaded all the recommended drivers and other files.  I've also installed all the latest Windows 8 updates.
    Here are the symptoms of my problem: After resuming from standby/sleep mode, my USB ports do not work.  My computer has two USB 3.0 ports and one USB 2.0 ports.  All exhibit the same behavior.  After resuming from standby mode I have tried inserting both my mouse and a USB thumbdrive, but neither are recognized.  After restarting Windows, the USB ports work again... until I resume from standby mode again.
    I hope there is a solution to this issue.  It is very frustrating.

    Thanks for the suggestion about tweaking the "Allow this computer to turn off this device" feature.  I un-checked that box for every entry I could find under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" in the Devide Manager.  Unfortunately, the same symptoms of my problem persisted.
    I went back and looked at the README file associated with the BIOS 2.50 download on Lenvo's support site.  At the bottom of the file it gives a "Summary of Changes".  Under version 2.03 of the BIOS (the version just before version 2.50), it says:
    - (Fix) Fixed an issue where USB device might not detected when system resume from sleep mode.
    This indicates that Lenovo support was already aware of such issues.  The problem was intended to be fixed in version 2.03 of the BIOS.  However, the issue persists on my machine, even with the latest BIOS.
    Hopefully someone from Lenovo can comment here.

  • TS3048 Bluetooth and USB ports aren't working can't connect mouse or keyboard.

    Bluetooth and USB ports aren't working, so am unable to use Imac past turning it on. There's no way to connect mouse or keyboard, it started right after a software update for Maverick (OS X bash Update 1.0 – OS X Mavericks), bluetooth symbol not showing in the task bar at all.    

    Hi SBrwn,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    The symptom you're describing can be frustrating to troubleshoot as our options are limited. I do suggest resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) if you have not already. This step can help you regain use of USB and Bluetooth.
    Follow these steps to reset the SMC on your iMac:
    Resetting the SMC for Mac Pro, Intel-based iMac, Intel-based Mac mini, or Intel-based Xserve
    Shut down the computer. [by holding down the power button]
    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.
    You can find these steps and more information at this link:
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    All the best,

    Sometimes you have to reset the SMC two or three times for it to work, don't know why. I've seen that error message before and 100% of the time it was fixed with an SMC reset. I suppose it's possible that your keyboard or mouse IS drawing too much power, do you have access to another you could try?

  • Upgraded to Snow Leopard and USB ports no longer work completely

    Hi!
    So my wife is using my older (from 2007) 15in macbook pro. We just installed Snow Leopard (from Tiger) and the USB ports are no longer functioning correctly.
    Previously, intermittently (between restarts) one of the USB ports wouldn't work well, but restarts always fixed it. This would happen maybe once or twice a month.
    Currently, neither the left or right USB port work well. Both will run a USB mouse and charge an iphone, but neither will recognize the phone or a card reader as plugged in.
    We've tried restarting. Tried turning off, unplugging, removing the battery and holding down the power for 5 seconds and restarting.
    Nothing is working. Does anyone have any tips on how to fix it?
    (The iphone is recognized by my macbook pro, so it's not the wire or the phone, at least as far as we can tell.)
    Thank you kindly in advance.

    I think it's time you upgraded to a newer version of Photoshop.

  • HP Pavilion dv6-1350sl - USB ports does't work!!

    hello,
    I have an HP Pavilion dv6-1350sl (bought in Italy, with Windows 7 Home Premium).
    Today I formatted my laptop and installed Win 7 Ultimate, however, the USB ports are not working anymore.
    I used the drivers contained on HP's own site, but I still have the problem (HP drives Italian).
    In Control Panel - System - Device, the USB port is with a yellow exclamation mark (but is energized, tested it with my cell phone).
    What can I do? Will I have to reinstall Win 7 Home Premium?
    I need help! tnks!!!

    We do not know what drivers you tried to install. Is the Win7 Ultimate a legitimate copy? I would try uninstalling the usb hub as a device and reboot to see if you can get the driver to reload properly. Your laptop does not have usb 3.0 so actually Windows 7 ought to have a good driver built in. It is also important to have the Intel chipset driver installed:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloa​dIndex?softwareitem=ob-79070-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&​...
    If the usb ports were working before the format, then it is very, very unlikely the hardware has failed and it is almost certainly some problem with the OS install.
