Captivate wont connect to computer

---

Just recently my computer stopped recognizing my phone. i plug it in and it says usb device not recognized. i deleted then reinstalled the drivers and that didnt work. shut off the phone pulled the battery and then my computer said downloading drivers or w.e. but then said download failed. tried rebooting and pullin batts on both but still nothing new. Any help?

had the same problem, solution? Get a new/smaller usb cable!

Lol using my old backflip recognizes my captivate and works like a charm, after a while the long usb cable degrades.

Try using a different USB port.

Same problem on my laptop
No problem on my desktop

Just use a 2nd computer
Or reinstall windows

Swyped from gingerbread powered captivate

Had the same problem on my laptop.
Happened after Win 7 SP1.
Strangely it only affects 3 USB ports on the right side. Not the single one on the left. :/

my laptop only has 3 usb ports

so all of them were affected.......bug?

my desktops USB's are fine though

I tried the two on the right and the one on the left but still not working. i still get the option on my phone to mount it and such but nothing happens as usual. Ill try a different cable later today. My roommate has a captivate so when i go home ill try his cable and if that doesnt work then his computer and we shall see. thanks for the responses

I had the same problem. I tried multiple computers, cords, drivers. Nothing worked. Eventually I got a replacement cause it was still under warranty.
