Solve : Hardware not Detected? |
|
Answer» My computer does not detect any external hardware attached, When I connect my Ipod to the comp , it does not detect it, When I try to connect my CELL phone to my comp, it still won't detect it, by detect it I mean it won't give the pop up saying 'new hardware detected'....I try LOOKING in 'my computer' and 'device manager' but still won't show anywhere, I have tried different ports. try to turn off your i-pod and then connect it to your pc againI have tried that a couple of times. Quote when you connect it to pc a message will appear on the i-pod the options that you want to do, select "data transfer mode".the Ipod has no such options, it doesn't have screen at all....it's just got 4 lil buttons. It's a very small Ipod. It was detected once but after that it wasn't Also my computer is not detecting my cell phone when connected. Go to apple supportIvy, Go to the "device manager" and report any YELLOW asterisks or QUESTION marks. Might want to check the "BIOS" to ensure USB is enabled. It seems to be a problem with your USB ports. Do any USB devices work currently? Also reverting to an earlier time via "restore point" might work. truenorth Is this i pod for windows or a mac?Do they have two types?Yes they do.Thanks. I didn't know.... there is only ONE kind of iPod... well, I mean they will all work with BOTH windows and Mac...This is what I thought.Guys, Take note the problem is not only with the i-Pod it is also with a "cell phone" suggests something more to me than the i-Pod device as the problem. Whata ya think?truenorth1. Are these USB ports you're trying to connect to? If so, try a power reset of your firmware: a. Shutdown the operating system normally (so PC powers down). b. If there's a power on/off button back of PC power supply, flip it off. Otherwise unplug the PC power cord from the wall or power strip. c. Depress and hold the power-on button front of the PC case for a few seconds to bleed off any residual charge. d. Plug the PC's power cord back into wall or power strip; or flip PC power supply switch back of case on. e. Reboot PC to see if it made any difference. 2. Also USB ports on back of case are generally more reliable than those on the front (for both power and data).I think we are only talking to one another now. Our poster seems to have left the building.truenorthI thought, it was Ivy, not Elvis |
