• USB not formatted; DVD player does not, external readers connect... something wrong, please help!

  Hello
  Desperately need help with my wife's cell phone.
  The dvd player will be noread disc. The drive is there in my computer but cannot read the content. I went to the pc with the problem world, they tried to attach an external hard drive, but it had the same problem, so they told me to restore to factory settings.
  I have a lot of photos I want down the comp before I restore (if that's what I do) but when I attach a USB key or an external hard drive via USB it said that they are not formatted, although they work on another pc.

  I want to save my photos but the difficulty of the laptop. Can someone tell me what I need to do?
  Help most appreciated.

  Thank you

  Stay away from PC World and other 'big box' stores. If you cannot do the following works yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the laptop to a local professional. Get recommendations from family, friends and colleagues.

  1. remove the hard drive and put it in a USB drive enclosure (or use an adapter) and attach it to a working computer. Then, copy your data.

  2. Once your data is safe, put the drive in the laptop and do a factory restore. If all goes well, after that, restore your data from the copy that you made. If everything is not well and/or the factory restore does not work yet, you have the hardware failure. What you do then much will depend on which components have failed and how old is the laptop; that is, it is worth spending anything to fix. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• device not recognized USB keeps popping... but I HAVE NO USB DEVICES PLUGGED IN!

  I have NO USB DEVICES plugged into my computer.  Yet, every half second, this obnoxious pop up with the sound that accompanies it, which makes my blood boil, has been annoying me since I bought my laptop.  I have NO USB DEVICES plugged into my laptop.  When I plug them in, they work fine.  If I get this error more I can't promise that I will not beat my laptop to 1 million coins...  Please for the love of Pete, someone tell me how to disable this dang thing!

  Visually check the USB ports for dirt or the twisted wires. Go to the Device Manager and under Bus USB controllers disable the hubs USB one at a time and check if the problem goes away for each hub.

• 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 exit

  Now see if it finally formatted your USB Flash drive

• My battery stopped charging. For four days, the power button says "59% available (plugged in, does not support)."

  * Original title: charging the battery

  My battery stopped charging. For four days, the power button says "59% available (plugged in, does not support)."

  How can I get the computer to start the battery again?

  The battery is probably faulty. You can say as follows:

  1. Shut down Windows.
  2. Remove the battery.
  3. Wait an hour.
  4. The power supply is cold? If Yes, then the laptop consumes no power (which is normal).
  5. Insert the battery.
  6. Wait an hour.
  7. The power supply is hot? If so, the battery is recharged.
  8. Start normally and check the charge level. If she's still around 59% while the battery no longer accepts the full load. You need to replace it.

• BlackBerry smartphones can not synchronize with the USB cable plugged into charge pod

  Hello

  I read on the web site of shopblackberry.com, in the details of charge pod ( http://www.shopblackberry.com/_blackberryaccessories/cgi-bin/pd.cgi?frompage=category&page=product_d... ) that the pod can handset with charger travel or data cable for charge and/or sync with a BlackBerry smartphone. So, my question is related on a problem or a misunderstanding of me to this description.

  I want to know if we could recharge and synchronize the BlackBerry via USB cable or is only responsible for the BlackBerry when connected that way. My second question is, is it possible to synchronize the BlackBerry with the USB cable plugged into the pod or not?

  Because I got a request from one of my users about the fact that his BlackBerry 9000 can not synchronize when it is on his group.

  Thank you very much!

  Hello

  It's a loading dock. It is useful, because just drag you your "BOLD" in there and it will load (just like the 8300 Curve).
  If you want to synchronize, you can plug a usb on the side of the appliance cord. This can be done while the machine is in its dock, where the description.

  I have the same crib, but for the 8300. It's really worth buying. I'm happy with it every day.

• peripheral mass storage USB "unplug safely device" will not be released

  I plugged my camera memory chip and it does not load so I check the Device Manager and says USB Mass Storage Device "probably delete material" and I had not removed the chip... I had already deleted... that it will not come out... I tried to reboot so far with no results and tried to put the chip in and out to try to put in place the "surely remove device" to come and he did once but that didn't help... I will try to shut down the system and see if it works... has someone else had the same problem?

  Hi Jamievee,

  1. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?

  Follow the steps in the link given below and check if that helps.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/tips-for-solving-problems-with-USB-devices

  If the steps above did not help, then you can try to format the chip on another computer and then check if the chip is detected.

  See the link provided below in order to format the drive.

• MicroSD - "Drive is not formatted" after taking on sansa express

  Here's my problem.

  I have a kingston 1gig microSD card.

  I use a card reader and add songs to the card.

  I insert the card into the sansa express. Sansa reads the card very well, the songs are there.

  But when I remove the microSD card and plug my card to the reader to add more songs it says that "the drive is not formatted" and I need to format it in until I can use it!

  http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/1629/formez4.jpg

  This means that I have to erase everything that card and readd all the songs.

  The sansa express did something to the microSD card. It makes it unreadable when I connect it to my pc?

  Any fix for that?

  I found the problem.

  It was the * beep * kingston brand.

  Looks like sansa dislikes the kingstons.

  I bought a transcend 4 GB sdhc micro, and the problem disappeared.

  In fact, when I insert the chip in the sansa and plug the sansa I also get a drive for the micro sd card (it didn't happen with the kingston), in other words this thing doubles as a sdhc reader.

  But I had to format the chip with my other player sdhc first.

• Backup and restore will not format disk

  I try to use Backup and Restore. When I click on the back of the files, I get a pop-up box that asks me to format the drive. After clicking on the Format, the following pop up box says unsuccessful Format. Sometimes, he also disk write-protected. I use Vista Home Premium and using an optical DVD +/-RW drive. I was unable to find anything on it. Has anyone else had this problem? What I can do. I check all the settings I can. Thanks for any help.

  Would you consider investing in an external USB drive and use it as your backup media.  This will work part-time full support until CD as the only hold about 700 MB of data and your hard drive is perhaps in a fit of 250 GB, what amounts to a large number of CD on current prices an external drive will pay for itself within a very short time and you are mucking around with several CD

  He needs that a defective CD or an unexpected shutdown to occur and you may lose all your backup met before this type of failure.  If you must use the CD then just use them to backup your important data.  If you need to perform a full restore, it may be faster in the long term to perform a recovery operation by using your installation media rather than feeding in a multitude of CD.

  One thing that I met, if you buy the CD on the main roads, is that, if they are not stored properly, at home or in a store, the last few CD inside tend to stick to the neighbor CD, which is not a good thing.

  My personal choice is to use a third-party imaging software to back up the entire partition or drive.  I save on a different hard drive installed.  You can use the external hard drive, I tried to sell you.  The entire backup (40 GB) takes about 10 minutes, with a restoration taking around the same time.  I double save my data more valuable, as well, of other external media, like USB, DVD, etc.
