What should I do if I cannot connect a USB device?
❑
If applicable, check the USB device is switched on and using its own power supply. For example, if you are using a digital
camera, check the battery is charged. If you are using a printer, check the power cable is connected properly to the AC outlet.
❑
Try using a different USB port on your computer. The driver could be installed to the specific port you used the first time you
connected the device.
❑
Check the manual provided with the USB device. You may need to install software before you connect the device.
❑
Try connecting a simple, low-powered device such as a mouse to test that the port is working at all.
❑
USB hubs may prevent a device from working because of the distribution of power. We recommend you connect the device
directly to your computer without a hub.
