How do I stop my mini box from switching off for apparent reason. the red light stays on but the box is inactive.I have disconnected power and reapplied it and it works normally but next day is off.
If your mini box keeps switching off unexpectedly, there could be a few potential causes for this issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Check the Power Connection: Ensure that the power cable is securely connected to both the mini box and the power outlet. Sometimes, a loose connection can cause intermittent power issues. Consider using a different power outlet or power cable to rule out any problems with the electrical supply.
2. Ventilation and Overheating: Make sure that the mini box has proper ventilation and is not overheating. Overheating can trigger automatic shutdowns as a safety measure. Ensure that the mini box is not placed in an enclosed space or obstructed by objects that may restrict airflow. Clean any dust or debris around the vents to promote better heat dissipation.
3. Software/Firmware Updates: Check if there are any available software or firmware updates for your mini box. Outdated software can sometimes cause instability or power-related issues. Visit the manufacturer's website or consult the user manual for instructions on how to update the software or firmware of your specific mini box model.
4. Factory Reset: If the problem persists, you can try performing a factory reset on the mini box. Keep in mind that this will erase all settings and data on the device, so it's important to back up any important files if possible. The process for a factory reset may vary depending on the mini box model, so refer to the user manual or manufacturer's website for specific instructions.
5. Contact Customer Support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it may be necessary to contact the manufacturer's customer support or seek assistance from a technical professional. They can provide more specific troubleshooting steps or arrange for repairs if needed.
Remember to document any patterns or specific circumstances when the mini box shuts off to provide additional information when seeking technical support.
Hey, was wondering how could I be able to use my OTG SanDisk duel 16Gb 3.0 USB drive on my Cellphone.... Mobicel V4
To use your SanDisk Dual USB Drive (OTG) on your Mobicel V4 smartphone, follow these steps:
1. Make sure your Mobicel V4 supports USB On-The-Go (OTG) functionality. Not all devices have this feature, so it's essential to verify its compatibility beforehand.
2. Connect the SanDisk Dual USB Drive to your Mobicel V4 using the micro-USB or USB Type-C connector (whichever is compatible with your phone's port).
3. Your Mobicel V4 should recognize the USB drive automatically and prompt you with a notification or a file manager app may open automatically. If nothing happens, proceed to the next step.
4. Go to the Google Play Store on your Mobicel V4 and search for a file manager app that supports OTG functionality. Some popular options include ES File Explorer, Solid Explorer, or Total Commander. Install the file manager app of your choice.
5. Launch the file manager app and navigate to the "Storage" or "External Devices" section. You should see the SanDisk Dual USB Drive listed there.
6. Tap on the USB drive's icon to access the files stored on it. From here, you can copy, paste, or manage files just like you would with any other file manager.
7. When you're finished using the USB drive, make sure to safely eject it from your Mobicel V4. This can typically be done through the file manager app or by going to the system settings and selecting the USB device to eject.
It's important to note that the specific steps may vary slightly depending on the file manager app and the Android version running on your Mobicel V4. However, these general instructions should help you connect and access files on your SanDisk Dual USB Drive using your smartphone's OTG functionality.

Hi, have a cruzer titanium 8gb. Had it for over a
You have lost all the data as it is. Unfortunately, you may have pulled the cruzer from the usb port by hand without using the EJECT Format. You should always EJECT a USB Dongle first to avoid STATIC Charge. Static erases the formatted device and washes away all data. In the Winter this condition is more active than when humidity is high. In many cases, the drive can not be formatted again.

You may need to use the diskpart command from the commanline on a Windows computer. Google "format disk fro m command line". Careful, you can ruin the computer if you do this wrong.
Repeated use
in the settings for back ups you can select files and folders to back up
the back up timing can be set from immediate to hourly , daily weekly even momthly
some back up systems copy and others copy and replace so ask around what your back up is going to be
My back up does everything every week and backs up onto a 1tb external hard drive
you should get an alert that reads something like-- unable to do back up because of insufficient space
or the same message if you try to download something onto a usb stick that is not big enough for the down load
Sandisk ultra backup 8 GB recording & retreiving advice
The files will be replace if you use the same exact file name, but it will ask you first. You can "explore" - right click - from "my computer" - right click - and find the drive that has your flashdrive.. double click on that drive and the contents of your flashdrive will show up.. You will NOT receive a notice, but every time you add a file , it should show how much space is remaining...

#1. Reboot the computer.
#2. is the light coming on the card reader when you insert the card? If not, the computer is not recognizing the card. Make sure the card reader is plugged into a working USB port and the card is inserted in the correct orientation. If the light is coming on, simply go to "My Computer" and select the drive letter associated with the card.
