Archos 605 usb connection problem

You should keep your eye on the device after its been plugged to the PC it will give you 2 options "charge" or "usb" you ca not establish a connection without picking usb connection option on the Archos screen when it pops up. If you are doing so and problem still existed then i would recommend you to download the latest windows media player. Because it comes with new devices sync driver update.

It is very possible the drivers conflict. You should try uninstalling everything to do with the one you don't want. Then install the drivers/software for the 700. Also what software are you using and what version?
Thanks,

You may require a driver to work with your device. Try downloading driver from company's web site.

Go to settings and look under system.Then look where it says usb peference then see if it says windows media device if not change it to this and if that doesnt work try the other settings.If that doesnt work go to Archos.com and contact them and see what they can do.

if you are having technical problem with your archos 605 just do this connect your USB with your computer and your archos device will pop up on the screen asking you if you want to charge your device or enaable usb that will automatically appear if your computer doesen't reconise the device then switch it off and on again if doesen't work then i suggest you look it up on the archos manual which is located on your device. if that doent work then i think you may need to update your computer it must have windows Core dual processor if that don't work and your archos device doesent appear then i think you may need to update your computer with a service pack 2 installation cd

The usb disbles the buttons on the archos. then you have to use something on your desktop to syncronize. like if you download archoslink from their website, you can automatically synchronize to podcasts you subscribe to. or you can use windows media to synch music or other media to the device. I download books & videos from my library and can upload books to the archos using their software which is called Overdrive Media console. The key is that you have to have some other software loaded that you use to sync to the archos. I hope this helps you!

I would suggest that you buy a external USB card reader, you should be able to pick one up quite cheaply and see if that works ?

What does the USB cable have to do with the WIFI

1. Download the latest firmware from Archos
2. Format the drive on your player
3. Connect the A605 to your computer using the USB lead
4. Copy the new firmware the A605's root folder (Drive X: on your PC or whatever letter was assigned to your Archos
5. Click ok and you are finished

You must update the firmware on the archos.
