Hi Kim, As to that, I experienced it myself. In this case, it might be due to power management. In other words, when a USB device is connected, it only operates with low power; only with the permission of the USB host computer then the device can switch to higher power mode. The theory here is to not allow a uSB device to "blow out" a computer with so much power requirements at once. In the case of your discussion, it seems that the BrailleNote "did" recognized the thumb drive (properly known as USB flash drive), but it couldn't offer enough power to announce its presence. Hope this explanatios helps. Cheers, Joseph P.S. Welcome to the list (I think this is my first reply to your post).

I jjust got a new thumb drive. It's been formatted. when I plug it into my VN it does not recognize it until I do a reset on the VN. This is a pain in the you know what. My old thumb drive works fine. Thanks for any ideas. Kim ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender. If your reply would be useful to the list, please send a copy to the list as well.
