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?
