  • Computer does not recognize my Sansa e260

    I run Windows 7 Home Premium. My MP3 player is a Sandisk Sansa e260.

    Normally, to charge the Sansa, I've just plug it into a USB port on the computer. It is immediately recognized and loading begins.

    Today, while I was out walking the dog, the Sansa ran out of juice. So when I got home I plugged the computer in the usual way. The computer does not know that it existed. It didn't start to load, it does not appear as a drive in Windows Explorer.

    I rebooted the computer with the trendy Sansa. No improvement. I ran "Find the hardware changes" on the USB entry in Device Manager. No change.

    I tried the Sansa in computer from Vista to my wife (who also accused there from time to time). Same result - the computer does not recognize the Sansa.

    Any ideas, please?

    Try performing a reset before you plug it into your computer to charge. There may be just enough juice left for this. You can usually squeeze a few more drops of a flat (any type) battery by heating slightly he. Maybe put it in your Pocket next to your body under a sweater for a while, or take it to bed with you. Your body heat to warm up gently.

    Now that old hat so to speak, press and hold the market/menu button while you count to 20. You can do it silently so the people around you do not think you have freaked out. OK, now, release the button and after a few seconds, press again to see if it boots up on its own. If so, place the cable of life support (Sansa) to quick before he dies again.

  • Computer does not recognize Toshiba external 500G HDD - HARD drive

    Sorry, I use a translator, because all the illiterate

    A year and a half used the hard drive, and now the computer does not recognize it, the TV too.
    In Device Manager, it is there, but says "initialization error".

    What should do?
    Thanks for the replies

    You have partitions software installed on the laptop you?
    I guess that the HARD disk does not appear in windows Explorer, but common partition as the partition Wizard tool might be able to recognize the HARD drive.
    You can try to format the HARD disk and to create the new NTFS partition.

    Another solution:
    Usually, you can initialize the disk by DiskManagement.

    In disk management, right-click the disk you want to initialize and then click on initialize disk.
    In the dialog box initialize the disk, select the disk to initialize.
    You can choose to use the master boot record (MBR) or the style of partition GUID partition table (GPT).

    Once a disk is initialized, you can create partitions on it.
    After you create a partition, you can format the partition to create a filesystem (NTFS).

  • My Windows Media Center XP computer does not recognize my Nikon Super Cool Scan 5000 ED

    I have a Nikon Super Coolscan 5000 ED, which I have not used for several years.  I tried to install it using the Nikon Scan software and was a failure.  Site of Nikon said that by Hamrick VueScan will also run this scanner.  My computer does not recognize the scanner and so I can not install the drivers for it.  I tried to connect this device on several different computers and with different cables.  None of these computers does not recognize the device.

    As you mentioned that none of the computers recognize this device, you will need to contact the manufacturer and check.

  • Computer does not recognize LaCie external hard drive when it is connected.

    Should I just a 'driver' of the manufacturer so that windows recognize? Help, please.

    The device is a hard drive (250 gb) bought in 2006.   LaCie support has provided relevant solutions.

    I disconnected the USB line, reconnected with the power of the unit it turned on and off while only plugged, unplugged, and made all possible combinations of many times. My computer does not recognize anything.

    I can't find it in my computer, and also, the computer does not list the device in the Device Manager utility.

    I have disabled the Windows Firewall.

    The computer with which the external drive worked and one that currently does not recognize are model computers windows XP (2008).

    Thank you very much for your help.

    Thanks for the reply.

    In the meantime and after reviewing all similar positions, it turns out that find the 'live' usb device does the trick.

    So, other people with similar problems, try the usb cables at the back of the computer (all), then by restarting the connection there.

    It worked for me.

    Thanks again for the reply!

  • My computer does not recognize my flash drive at all

    In the past I was able to plug my USB key and use it (make changes, and save the information), now when I insert it, nothing happens. The screen displays just the desktop.    The computer does not recognize it.  I tried another drive flash with information on this subject, once again, nothing happened.  I need help how to fix this problem.  Thank you.

    Sounds like your AutoPlay settings need to be adjusted.

    Something to try...

    Insert the flash drive into a USB port and go... Start / my computer...

    The flash player should be recognized by a drive letter...

    Right-click on the drive letter and go... Properties / AutoPlay tab...
    Left click on the button "Restore default settings" / apply / OK.

    Now... Remove and re - insert the flash drive and see if there is an improvement.

    And... the following Wizard may be worth a try:
