Hi all
I have a couple of USB flash drives. I recently got a new computer and none of them work. They work on a computer with Vista and a Macintosh running leopard OSX. I tried to install the drivers for them, but they do not work. I tried to uninstall the from Device Manager, but they don't always work. Also, one of them appears SOMETIMES (very rarely) and when he does works incredibly slow and unresponsive so. I searched the internet for each method I can find, but nothing yet. And they work very well on other computers. Can I use bluetooth USB and a USB mouse and pregnant too much work, but the sticks of memory will not work. Also do they not appear on Device Manager. I have Service pack 3 2002 edition came with the computer.

USB flash drive will not format
Dane Elec 16 GB USB drive flah.
When inserted, it tells me that it needs formatting. But I can not format, because somehow, it is write protected. However, there are not switch or any possibility of mechanics to remove the write protection.
I tried unlocker, formatting to ntfs (with XP, Win7, and BACK), but nothing works.
Any suggestions?

Hello
Have you tried to format your USB key, but instead to use NTFS you use FAT 32?
Click on windows start orb
type cmd and do a right click and select run as administrator
type diskpart
disc type list
Select the drive that is your USB. For example, if your USB is no disc select 2 then type 2
clean type
type create partition primary
Type format fs = fat32 quick
Type exitNow see if it finally formatted your USB Flash drive
Kind regards

My Sansdisk flash drive is not recognized by my computer desk
My disk 32 GB flash drive is not recognized by my office, but it is recognized by my laptop and other devices. In the devices section and printers, it is assigned K:, while my other portable external hard drives and flash drives are assigned J:. My office has at least 3 USB ports that I can reach to, and each of them do not recognize the Sansdisk, which means that it is not giving me the option to auto-play, or to eject the flash disk, it reads... Any suggestions? I'm on Windows 7 Home premium.
I'm confused.

Possible problem 1
The device is shown in the devices & Printers? You clicked on this entry & looked at the Autoplay item, or click Browse to see that he had received the letter K?
But the device is still not displayed in Windows Explorer as a disk?

Product not found on the computer code
When you try to use Adobe Acrobat Pro XI for the first time, he asks me to enter the serial number. When I do, it tells me that the serial number is valid, but a qualifying product code is not found on my computer. I also noticed that my product (Adobe Acrobat Pro XI for Mac) is not on the drop-down list next to the serial number entry box. What should do?
If you did not already have a version of Acrobat and the software says it can not find a code of qualification I can only deduct that you purchased a version upgrade when you would have to purchase a full version.
Because this code yiou speaks of maybe not what I guess it is, I suggest you contact Support Adobe directly through chat or by phone to solve your serial number or activation number.

USB Flash drive does not work with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
I have several USB thumb drives, some of them do not work when I plug them in while others work very well. By experimenting, I reduced the problem with the 64-bit Version Windows. All of these USB keys works well in my other computers that have 32-bit installed and also even computer with the 32-bit version installed on different hard drive. All of these thumdrives are detected immediately and works without a problem. The 64-bit version, I have uninstalles and reinstalled readers, drivers updated for readers and controllers USB chipset, reasigning letter drive without a resolution of the problem.
It is interesting to know that this problem only occurs with some discs that I (like Ativa 4 GB, 4 GB generic and Verbatim 4 GB). While I discovered that you can do all the nonworking day thumdrives work once if you shutdown computer and plug the thumdrive into the USB port and the computer to boot, boot time is longer than usual and when it is operational in 30 to 45 seconds drive appears in the list of devices and you can read, write and format normally without any problem to experiment. When you pull chase him and reconnect to USB port after 10 seconds same problem appears aggai. First of all, you get the message that the disk must be formatted and if you try to format you will get a message that windows cannot format the drive. If you try to access the drive, you get message that Drive is not accessible. If I take this player and plug it from 32-bit without problem, you see all the files in the drive and are able to read the writing and the format is normally.
I'd appreciate if I am able to get an answer as a way to solve the problem.

When you disconnected the battery of the laptop, you did, be sure to press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds? This causes the rest of completely discharge power.
