Flash drive not recognizing USB - c

I just bought the new macbook 12 inches with the retina. I am very satisfied, but I'm having some trouble with two flash drives that I bought on Amazon. Sometimes, they recognize and sometimes they are not then I reboot

and they work fine. What is happening to someone else? How can I fix?

Others have noticed the same thing. Here are two threads, you might look at. In my eyes, there was not a single solution that works for most people with this problem. I do not recommend that you report your problem to Apple directly but I guess that they are aware.

Retina Macbook does not notice external HD

Good luck

  • Nighthawk R8500, USB 3.0 Flash drive not recognized USB 3.0 Port, Port of only 2.0

    My Nighthawk R8500 router with the latest firmware, V1.0.2.54_1.0.56, does not recognize my SanDisk Ultra Fit 128 GB USB 3.0 Flash drive when it is connected to the router USB 3.0 Port. The Ultra Fit is formatted in FAT32 and works fine when plugged into USB Port 2.0 router or my laptop.

    At first, I thought maybe USB 3.0 Port on my router wasn't working at all, but it recognizes my SanDisk 16 GB Cruzer USB 2.0 Flash Drive that is also formatted FAT 32. Unfortunately both my laptop have USB 2.0 Ports, so I don't know if the problem is with the router or the Ultra Fit Flash Drive. Everyone knows about this problem of their Flash 3.0 player is not recognized in USB 3.0 Port their router, especially with a SanDisk Ultra Fit? This problem can be resolved through firmware? I'd really like to take full advantage of the speed of USB 3.0 as I like to share files through my router via ReadyShare and ReadyCloud.

    Thanks in advance for any help, Carlos

    Technical support with me. Installation of a updated firmware, V1.0.2.64_1.0.62, which became available shortly after my post, solved the problem. -Carlos

    This is the result of not not more likely USB ports. You can try to update the drivers of usb device, but if the problem there is not a lot you can do otherwise than to buy an expansion usb card. You can disable usb error reports to stop seeing the error.

  • external USB drives not recognized under xp pro 64

    I bought a genuine version of XP Pro 64 to load on my computer and because Win 7 froze with drivers nVidia graphics.

    When I plug a recently bought Seagate Goflex or one of the new Western Digital external hard drives, they are not recognized.

    They do not show on my computer or disk management at all.

    They appear in Device Manager with a yellow question mark big under 'other devices '.

    I right click on the hard drive in the Device Manager to update the driver, and it always fails.

    Before ask you, these USB drives work perfectly on my other XP Home 32 System. The cables are good.

    I tried different ports, front and rear... no good.

    My system XP 64 Prp is updated w/Windows update and software chip to the motherboard.

    Strangely, I have a hard drive WD Passport USB 500 Gb one-year-old that works fine on XP 64 system.

    WD technicians say that I am the only one with this problem. PlugNPlay needs no driver, what do say.

    I also have IDE/SATA USB cable w / the power cable, I use to connect my old internal drives.

    Works fine on the XP Home 32, but I get the error "USB to ATA/ATAPI Bridge" in the device with the 64-bit System Manager.

    Yes these devices are all "turned on."

    Something is missing on the XP 64 system.

    Help is very appreciated.

  • External Toshiba HARD drive not recognized on USB 2.0 ports, but only on USB 3.0

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba drive external HARD 750 GB USB2.0/USB3.0
    Now, this HARD drive is not recognized on USB 2.0 ports from my laptop (same thing on my desktop computer) but only on the USB 3.0 port.

    I have try on port USB2.0 computers different (desktop, laptop) but it doesn't work. The LED is the lightning, but the drive does not appear in the file Explorer.

    You have any ideas?

    Thank you

    > Now this HARD drive is not recognized on USB 2.0 ports from my laptop (same thing on my desktop computer) but only on the USB 3.0 port

    USB 3.0 port 900mA feeds. The USB 2.0 port common provides 500mA.
    I think that the HARD drive needs more 500mA power in order to work properly.

    So if you want to use the HARD drive on USB 2.0 ports, I recommend you to use a USB Y cable which allows to connect the HARD drive to two USB 2.0 ports

  • Floppy USB drive not recognized when installing WinXP on Satellite Pro L40

    History:

    I bought a Satellite Pro L40, it came with windows vista. I can't stand vista windows for obvious reasons. so I formatted the HARD drive. I have a copy of windows XP.

    IV ' e read on the internet that I need Intel storage driver manager...

    IA´ve got the driver, he got on a floppy, and it does not, because when I start to install XP, it works (after pressing F6 & choose the driver to install). I come to the part of license agreement, press F8 accept...

    I select the partition I want to use (in format completely on vista). It starts to load more stuff... so he said "PLEASE INSERT LABELD - INTEL MATRIX STORAGE MANAGER DRIVER - DISK IN DRIVE A:" "PRESS ENTER WHEN READY."

    The disc that I used in the first place is always in. when I press on enter, nothing NOT to PAST (the USB floppy drive is not yet into action)

    How can I make it work? It is that I can get.

    I DON'T WANT BACK TO VISTA - HELP!

    This could happen if the floppy USB doesn t drive supports the standards of law. Some people have reported on different websites many floppy drives are not recognized.

    However, worry guy. I have a solution ;) (jeaaa: D)

    Try to create a new XP CD using the software called nLite!
    Then, you could include the SATA (Intel Matrix Storage Manager) driver in this new CD and then you could boot from the XP CD again.

    For details and how to use the nLite please Google because there are a lot of useful Web sites.

    I downloaded music files from my computer windows xp on a sandisk cruzer usb flash drive. I tried to download these files to my new laptop with windows 7, but the laptop has stated that it does not recognize the device. What I d0 now?

    I have a 2 GB SanDisk Cruzer so I'm sure it 'll work with Windows 7. It is possible that the Sandisk has installed a software owner and Windows don't is not running. There is an updated version of the US software on SanDisk site which may help.

    Personally, I would remove the U3 of the reader software because it is NOT necessary for training at work. I had to search the disk and launch a program to "delete" in the Launchpad folder on the drive. Once removed, it should work without interference from this program.

    Here is a link to the SanDisk site as well. You should be able to easily do the XP.
