Hi Moth!
I am only in my 69th year but I also find groping about behind PCs with the spiders a PITA!
So,  buy a USB hub. I have several. One of the best is called "Masterplug" it clamps on the back of your desk and has 4 USB ports, a 13A power socket, RJ45, RJ11 and headphone jack on the front. Bad news is I can't find another one!
However, some kit won't work on hubs so buy some 1mtr USB extension leads, buy the best quality you can. Plug those in and bring them out to the front of the machine.

  • Where are the USB ports on the Photosmart 7520 e-all-in-o​ne series?

    I'm trying to set up my printer, but don't have a CS?DVD drive so I'm using a USB cable. I cannot find the port for the small end of the cable. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Why don't HP just have Customer Service online to answer these questions?

    On the back side, next to the power jack. #22 on this diagram

  • What standards are  the USB ports on a Dual 2.3 GHz PowerPC G5?

    What standards are the USB ports on a Dual 2.3 GHz PowerPC G5? USB1 or USB2? If USB1, is there a card to equip the computer for USB2 or USB3?

    USB 2.0. USB 3.0 is not yet supported in OS X. You can purchase USB 3.0 cards for Macs, but I don't know if they work in your slots. See www.caldigit.com, for example.

  • Where are the USB drivers for my MSI board??

    Got a new MSI board- VIA KM266 Pro + 8237 Chipset Based. I installed my new AMD 2300+, WIN XP, etc. I have a USB printer. Got everything installed, printed a test page, and then a document. Everything fine. THEN, I go to use my printer a few days later and it says "Printer not responding". So I troubleshoot, and then go into Device Manager and notice there are no USB devices installed. The new MSI board has 4 USB ports on it. The CD that came with the board has no USB drivers on it (I checked). WIN XP has no USB drivers. What is going on? How do I get the USB ports to work? Am I looking at it all wrong? Appreciate any help out there!

  • Netbook NB305 - Are the USB ports fully powered?

    I'm wondering if the USB ports on the NB305 supply enough power to power an external 2.5" hard drive.
    Thanks very much!

    It can depend on the external drive.  A friend of mine and I bought our WDC Passports at the same time from the same store and mine works just fine on every laptop we have tried it on and his exact same model (the serial numbers are only about 100 apart) has troubles powering up on some of the same laptops mine runs fine on.  If it doesn't you can normally use a dual usb cable like this one to draw power from two ports to get it going.

  • Where are my USB ports?

    Hello:
    I have four USB ports, all of which work under Windows.  What are the device names in Arch Linux?  I am looking at the directory of /dev and I see nothing with a USB prefix, nor with a SCSI prefix (I vaguely recall some distros putting USB under SCSI)
    Not that I understand what I am looking at, but the KDE FSTab tool shows four USB in /proc/bus.
    Thank you

    You need to plug something in to have for example /dev/sda1, don't you (they are created dynamically) ? :-)
    Nexist, what do you want to know ? If you are using udev look in /etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules to know what is where in /dev.
    If you just want to know if your usb ports are recognized and working browse dmesg output. It should print something about usb ports when you load your usb module (at least one of the ehci_hcd, uhci_hcd, ohci_hcd). For example:
    ehci_hcd 0000:02:05.2: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB 2.0
    ehci_hcd 0000:02:05.2: irq 5, pci mem 0xde002000
    ehci_hcd 0000:02:05.2: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1
    ehci_hcd 0000:02:05.2: USB 2.0 initialized, EHCI 0.95, driver 10 Dec 2004
    hub 1-0:1.0: USB hub found
    hub 1-0:1.0: 4 ports detected
    I have to run to my parents house, but I have no SDA devices, even with my iomega SuperDVD plugged in, nor does one appear when I plug in the Palm Pilot.  However, I am using a USB mouse just fine -- and yet there is no SDA device for that either.
    How do I check the dmesg log.  Also, I just thought of something when I boot up there is an error loading the Hot Plug module.  If these are created dynamically, that module might be responsible for that....

  • Where are the USB Drivers for G570?

    Where?
    I can't use a normal gamepad or a mouse because it keeps disconnecting/connecting after random times, and I can't use them. 
    (HID-Compliant Game Controller keeps showing that warning sign like the driver's not installed when it's disconnecting - on device manager)

  • 6025E Register Map: where are the 82C55 Ports?

    Hi,
    I have written a driver for 6024E, and now would like to add support for the additional I/O ports available on 6025E. However, I can't seem to figure out the address to access these ports, and don't see any reference to these within the DDK files.
    Any help would be appreciated -- thanks!

    ok, I finally found this in comedi driver source:
    #define Port_A 0x19
    #define Port_B 0x1b
    #define Port_C 0x1d
    #define Configuration 0x1f
    It must be in the NI docs somewhere, but for the life of me I can't find it.

  • Where do I find the USB port interfaces?

    Which of the elements in the /dev folder are the USB ports? Mine contains to many to post.

    I'm sorry, maybe I didn't ask the correct question. I have a library that looks for the USB ports to do communication, Serialio and Java to be specific. I need to use the USB interfaces, which are usually found in /dev correct? And before anyone tells me to go to SerialIO's forums, I'm working on that as well. It seems that the library isn't finding the ports.

  • Where are the front USB ports on the HP Envy 700-210 Desktop?

    I bought the Envy 700-210 desktop because it has so many USB ports.   However, I can only find 8 - 2 on top and 6 in the back.   According to the specifications, there are supposed to be some in the front.   Do I have to take something apart to find them?
    Thanks.

    VJR-Savannah, welcome to the forum.
    Here is the Product Specifications page for the computer.  If you look at the picture of the computer in the link, I believe that the front cover below the Red band slides down to expose the USB ports.  This is how it works on my Envy 810-135qe.

    How can I determine if the USB ports are working.  Macbook Pro i7.
    Thanks for any help.  This is a new computer to me migrating from a PC system.

    Blessings to those who are able to reply with possible answers.   I am sorry....but I have spent days working on getting my two USB ports to work also.  I basically use the USB ports for a wireless mouse and various flashdrives/memory sticks.  I have a MacBook Pro 2011 Snow Leopard 10.6.8  I have tried software update, SMC and PRAM resets, battery reset, hardware test, creating a new user account....and browsing and reading numerous discussion boards.....awgh!  I have stopped short of using my install DVD (fear of loosing data), upgrading to Lion or Mountain Lion (some fear of loosing an application that might not be compatible), contacting an Apple Store (AppleCare or whatever--live 2 hours away + fear of expense), and of course, trashing the laptop.  Does anyone out there have any possible solutions?   I see I am not alone.  --A frustrated first-time Apple products owner.
