Hi,
Welcome to Fixya. The "the USB device attached has malfunctioned" is a common issue of a usb device that is connected to the computer. If you can still use the ipod properly it seems that there is something that has been detect by windows that is malfunctioning on the iPod when you connect it. There are only 3 possible reasons. First is the cable that you are using and the other one is the port on the ipod where you connect the usb cable and the 3rd is the motherboard needs to be rebooted. You can try to change the usb cable or try to use the steps below and see if you will encounter the same error.
Simply UNPLUG YOUR COMPUTER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY. Yes that's it! Note that this does not mean just turning off your computer because modern computers don't really turn off when you press the power button as the motherboard still gets power. First to explain, the motherboard is where all of hardware of the computer is connected to, including the USB ports. Sometimes the motherboard needs to be "rebooted" also because something can go wrong, i.e. all your USB ports suddenly stop working. The small microprocessor on the motherboard will reload the drivers and your USB ports should be back to recognizing all devices! So first turn off your computer using Shut Down or pressing the power button and then UNPLUG it from the wall outlet. Let it sit for about a minute and then plug it back in.
If you are using a laptop you need to remove the battery to drain the power on the motherboard. Please let me know what happen so that we can continue troubleshooting.

If you have questions please let me know. Thanks

Hi, smpk4083 mp3 player not recognized by the computer
Why is my smpk4083 mp3 player not being detected by my computer when I connect it?

This may be caused by one of the following:
1. Minimum system requirements were not met.
2. Corrupted drivers.
3. Computer restrictions.
4. Power issue.

To resolve this issue, try the following solutions:

SOLUTION 1 - For brand new player or first time connecting to this computer.

For Windows XP users: verify the following operating system requirements are met.
- Windows XP SP2 or higher
- Windows Media Player 10 or higher

Download and install the latest Windows Media Player if it's not installed.

For Windows Vista users: If the player is seen in My Computer when using MTP mode, but not showing in Windows Media Player.
- Download the hotfix from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939211.
- Run the hotfix.

For MAC users, see smpk4083 mp3 player not recognized by a MAC OS

NOTE: If you are trying to connect to a Computer at work that is part of a network, there may be user right restrictions that are set to disable access to new hardware or stop any program installations. You may need to check with your IT administrator to see if this is causing the problem.


SOLUTION 2 - Refresh the driver

STEP 1 - Connect the smpk4083 mp3 player to the PC
The screen on your player should turn on, show 'Connected' and indicate the battery charging or full.
- If the player does not turn on try other USB ports or on another computer if one is readily available. Ensure you are connecting directly to the computer USB port and not to a USB hub.
- If there is nothing showing on the screen and the player does show up in as a storage device in an explorer window, then the screen is just not working.

If you receive the error "USB Device Not Recognized" on the computer, the player is most likely failed. Additional troubleshooting is unlikely to correct the problem.

STEP 2 - Check under Device Manager
1. Right-click My Computer, and select Manage.

2. Click Device Manager on the left pane.

NOTE: smpk4083 mp3 Players can connect to your computer in MSC or MTP mode. Exceptions are smpk4083 mp3 player Connect and smpk4083 mp3 Express which only use MTP mode. MTP mode is the recommended and default method for smpk4083 mp3 Players when used with Windows OS.

The smpk4083 mp3 player will show up on Device Manager's right pane as:
1. USB Mass Storage device (if the player is set to MSC)
2. Portable Device (if the player is set to MTP mode)

If there is a yellow exclamation point (!) or question mark (?) beside the device, try to refresh the drivers.


STEP 3 - Refresh the drivers
1. Right-click the entry with the error mark, select Uninstall.
2. On the top menu, click Action then select Scan for hardware changes.

NOTE: If a device with yellow exclamation point (!) continually appears and disappears, then the player is most likely failed. Additional troubleshooting is unlikely to correct the problem.


Hope it helped.

Have a nice day,.

Hi sir, Fewer Portable HDD's wont support Front side USB port so choose different USB port sure it wil work i prefer BACKSIDE of your system :)

Uninstall the usb device in device manager and reboot. It should reinstall it and then ask you for network and password info,

For that you have to uninstall all usb drivers from computer then it automatic installed.
Right click on my computer icon then click on property then click on hardware then device manager.
In device manager you can see all driver list.Go to usb controllers then uninstall all usb driver 1 by 1 when you right click on usb driver click on uninstall.
Then restart computer then check.
If still face same issue then right click on my computer icon then click on manage then go to disk management
Then removable storage check you find there your drive if you find then explorer it.
Also check in bios that USB Legacy 2.0 is enabled.

Let me know if you need more assistance.
Thanks.

oma to mp3

usb doesnt have any drivers
drivers are for the devices which are connected if the comptuer is not responding to the device there might me various issue
first the
check if any other device wd usb port is working or not
then check the auto play optin
check weather the device is detected in device manger or not
then decide wt is wqrong if any other device is being detected by the compter ther will be trouble wd teh mp3 other wise computer

k.....so i had the same problem but i figured out whats up...

if you find another 89 that is the same model....for example if you have a titanium.....find another titanium....and get a var link cable and plug em in to both calcs......

on the one that is working hit 2nd "-" to open up varlink.

hit F3 to open up "link" and highlight send OS but dont send it yet.

On the calc that isnt working correctly open up varlink (2nd "-") and hit F3 and highlight and click recieve OS.

Then on the calc that is working click send OS.

THis will erase your applications like notefolio and other things but once your calc recieves the OS you can go back to varlink and send all the "flashapp" files.

Just make sure when you use varlink you always click recieve before you send it.....otherwise it will give you an error.

hope this helps
