Mark I've removed the battery now and left it out for a while. Let's see what happens now. Anthony always has a solution yes! -----Original Message----- From: Plextalk [mailto:plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Marc Van der Aa Sent: 12 September 2013 09:38 AM To: 'Plextalk User Discussion List' Subject: Re: [Plextalk] usb woes Hi Andre, If that is the case, please get the pocket checked by Sensory Solutions. They may offer you a solution.

I bought a completely new battery because I thought the battery draining was a problem with the battery but now it seems that the Plextalk is the problem. Perhaps Mark from Belgium can comment on this one. -----Original Message----- From: Plextalk [mailto:plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Jamie Cuthbertson Sent: 11 September 2013 06:34 PM To: 'Plextalk User Discussion List' Subject: Re: [Plextalk] usb woes Hi Andre, Not sure about the battery issue but I still think it's worth trying to plug in the USB cable after you've got the Pocket turned on properly (not on stand by). Maybe you've already tried this but, if not, it's worth a shot.

Problem is that I don't hear the initial sound at all. But I think something may be wrong with the Plextalk itself also. I bought a new battery for it. And then when the battery is at say 70% I power it off completely and not on standby. When I get to it after a day the battery is completely drained in spite of the fact that it was switched off completely! Very strange. -----Original Message----- From: Plextalk [mailto:plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Jamie Cuthbertson Sent: 11 September 2013 04:29 PM To: 'Plextalk User Discussion List' Subject: Re: [Plextalk] usb woes HiAndre, Have you tried turning the Pocket on before you connect the cable. It shouldn't make any difference but I've had situations where this seems to make things work that wern't working beforehand. It's also worth giving the computer plenty of time to recognise and load the drivers - again I've had situations where you hear the initial sound showing the the device has been seen but I've then not waited for all the subsequent popping sounds which go with the driver installation. Sometimes a reboot of the system is also required after installation of some drivers. Worth a try anyway.

Attempting to connect my pocket with a usb cable. I have so many of these cables that to be honest Im not sure whether the one I am now using is the right one. On this computer, the pocket can be charged with the usb cable that is no problem. But it does not recognise the pocket as a device. This means it draws power from the usb port i.e. it is connected but not recognised. Any help from anyone?
