Hi. After connecting the drive did you go to file explorer and in the drives list look for a hard disk? At the least you should have heard it say some drive connected. There are two jacks on the docking cable. One is a standard host port like is found on a computer and the other is a client port and is right next to the host port. Just connect the drive directly to the host port. As mentioned, some hard drives won't work, so if you have a hard drive, try a different one, such as a flash drive instead. it works for me. there isn't a way to disable the detecting of new drives when connected. Enabling USB network connection doesn't help. In fact, try connecting it without that if you haven't already. That is just for using your computer's network connection through the USB port and hasn't anything to do with detecting and supporting drives and stuff like that. ----- Original Message ----- From: Brandon Keith To: icon-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, February 23, 2010 11:13 PM Subject: [icon-discuss] USB Not Responding OK so this is kind of in tandem with my other email, but... I tried a USB drive and the cord on two different of the little cables you attach directly to the Braille+ and I could not get any response from the Braille+. I'm not sure if there is a setting or anything that I might have flipped off... I turned on USB Networking, but that didn't seem to help...
