Faulty USB key

I have a USB, I was working on something, and then suddenly the USB not working anymore, I wonder if this has something to do with the file I was working on or is the USB aisle and I can't use it. I have all the backups of my USB and I have important work on that in fact I remember deal files to the computer, but I deleted them that I also tried to put the USB key to a different computer, but still nothing happens.

Which computers I used:

Lenovo ThinkPad X 220 and

Acer Travelmate P645-MG

I need work on the memories soon Please update.

This is a generic USB

It is likely that the USB (I assume that's what you're referring to the) failed.

You can try a few things - assuming that it displays in the list of the computer:

Use Chkdsk: In the Accessories folder, right click on the command line item.

When the black window, type chkdsk, space, (drive letter see you for this in the list of the computer), space/r.  For example, it might look like this: chkdsk f:/r, it is possible that the 'disc' is corrupt and chkdsk can fix.

If this does not help, always assuming that it displays in the computer list, right-click on it and choose reformat.  This will make you lose data, but it might save the device.

Keep in mind USB thumb drives are cheap.  Marks for not even.  USB 3.0 drives 32 GB go for about $20.

Know as well as USB FLASH drives have a limited life span.  Technically, every time you write something, you ' wear it. "  They are good for move files from time to time, but not a good thing for backups or constant daily use.

  • USB key came into read-only mode

    Hello

    This morning my USB key came into read-only mode and I can't reverse this trend. I just assumed to come from the third party who helped me write on NTFS, but I have a drive HARD Toshiba (NTFS) that works and a USB key that is read-only. I changed the third party software and the same result. I tried the option 'get info' and I still do not see the permissions.

    I tried to format the drive - because it is read-only won't let me not - it. And so on.

    I tried disk utility - no result.

    I need an idea, suggestion, something for it to work.

    Thank you.

    When some Flash storage starts to falter, it locks in a read-only mode. So, it might be failing.

    When you try to format the drive, you must select the drive itself in disk utility, not partitions. If that's how you try to reformat, so I guess it's a failure.

  • USB key used in iMac unrecognized by any other device

    Hi all, I recently encountered a problem using USB keys with my iMac 2010 10.11.3 running OSx.

    My iMac will recognize UBS sticks and allow me to save documents and files for them, but when I insert into any other device (e.g. a few friend PC and Macs, professional printers to Officeworks etc.) the USB stick is not recognized and does not see the same on their system.   Then when I insert the USB in my iMac, it is recognized immediately as well as its content.

    Before that, I was able to share files and documents with family, friends and clients on USB with no problems at all.

    I tried a variety of different USB keys (old and new) and what is happening to all of them, whatever the brand, age, size, etc.   Is produced only for a few months and at first I was in denial and thought that it was my friend PC, but now I see that it is certainly a problem with my iMac.  He may have started happening around the same time that when I upgraded to IE Captain earlier this year.

    Any ideas please?

    Thank you.

    The fact that this happens with different computers suggests that the problem could be the configuration.

    Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk utility. Insert your flash key and look at the settings. It may look like this:

    Everything on this list must be verified. While you're there, see if your USB is correctly configured:

  • I am helping a friend who doesn't have a browser on his computer and want to download Firefox on a USB key. I can't find a way to do it, any help?

    I don't want to charge my laptop I already use Firefox. I need to know how to download on a USB key that I can load and then in the other laptop.

    You can download a complete installer from this page (scroll down to his preferred language):

    https://www.Mozilla.org/Firefox/all/

    I suggest to download hard disk and then copying to the USB flash drive in Windows Explorer (you can click on the folder icon on the right side of the download for the file list to open a window for her). That way Firefox will try to access the flash player in the future as your last used download location.

  • Problems when I want to update my complete system Mavericks using a USB key with the installation program.

    I want to "Refresh" my Mavericks home cleaning system and I still have a USB key with the complete installation program.

    With this USB key, I installed successfully already before Mavericks. Now, I want to repeat the installation by booting from USB key. But when the installation starts early an alert appears, said something like "... the verification failed - something is changed on the volume...". "and the cant of the installation continues.

    I've archived the original "OS X Mavericks installieren.app" from the app store and I have properly prepared another USB key using the terminal app, referencing the original installer, but I still get this alert when I try to install with this new USB.

    It is necessary for me to work with the Mavericks, because it's the latest version of the system on which I can run Adobe Creative Suite CS6 correctly. With the later versions of OS X, I get problems on my Mac Pro (end of 2008).

    I wonder what could happen with my first USB data, as I have already installed Mavericks successfully with it under the same conditions and after that he never touched the stick again so far. What can I do? What is the reason for this? Y at - there a site where I can get help or advice to solve the problem or if necessary can I re-download an Installer 'fresh '?

    Thank you and what is Berlin

    I'm used to be able to download the exec of set-up for FF and save it on a USB key to reinstall offline after a complete restore of the system. This is very useful. The last one I have is FF12, so after a restore, I now install FF12 so I can take care of tasks offline restore without having to resort to IE. When I go online I go from FF12 to the latest version.

  • I would like to add a folder of photos on a USB key for time machine backups

    I have a new time capsule, and I am attaching a USB hard drive that previously held some my time machine backups and all my photos. I would now add the photo of backups auto time folder machine on the time capsule. But in time machine preferences I don't see the folder or the USB key. Although I can see the USB in the finder as well as the time capsule window. I can copy and paste the photo time capsule file it's just I wanted to time machine for backup for me. Any help much appreciated.

    The time Capsule is what we call a 'network' of the road, so when the USB is connected to the time Capsule, which would make it a "network" drive as well.

    Unfortunately, Time Machine is unable to back up a 'network' of the time Capsule drive.

    If you want to save the data or the USB disk using Time Machine drive, you will need to connect the drive directly to your Mac and then it will be saved with your Mac... assuming that the drive has been formatted for Mac to Mac OS extended (journaled) format. Then, the player will become a "local" drive

    If you need to keep the USB connected to the time Capsule, the only way to back up data automatically on a schedule would be to use a commercial program like Carbon Copy Cloner or ChronoSync.

    Problems with bookmarks and history does not properly can be caused by a corrupted database places.sqlite file.
