Hi Tiffany. What other USB devices do you have on that computer? Once you get that message about the device not beging recognized, you = should be able to see some device in the Device Manager (while Book Port = is still connected). Are you not seeing anything there that might be = related? >>> tjessen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Thursday, September 16, 2004 9:02:30 AM >>> Hello. I will try to address everyone's email here, where they were = responding to my initial post about Book Port not being recognized. First, I did as one person said, where I went into the system and removed = the items which said they were USB storage devices, They didn't use those = words exactly, but I can't think of the correct terminology at the moment. = I also did as another person said, to look for any mp3 players or tts or = something devices, but as they were not found, I did not have anything to = removed in order to be rerecognized. Additionally I pulled out the RJ45 = cable which connects me to the network and rebooted periodically between = each step. Still, the Book Port is not being recognized by my computer. The only = other suggestion I saw in reference to my problems was to reassign the = drive letter associated with the Book Port, but as that it isn't being = recognized, it doesn't appear in the list, in order for me to reassign it. = This is not just in the control panel under system and administrative = tools, but also in Windows Explorer and My Computer.=20 Finally, I'm guessing it doesn't make a difference as far as getting help = with this recognition problem, but I did update the Book Port transfer = software on both computers, and via the laptop I updated the firmware.=20 It's still working perfectly with the laptop, and not though the transfer = program appears to be working on the desktop, as far as finding and cueing = things up, but it still tells me the Book Port is not connected. I'm sure = this is not a problem with the program because when I plugged in the USB = cable earlier, a message pops up saying one or more USB devices on this = computer are not recognized. Any other suggestions? I would really like to get this thing working = directly on the desktop and bypass the transferring through the laptop. Thanks again. Tiffany tjessen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx=20
