UMS connection not working on H10 20gb

(1/1)

woodgrain:
I have had nothing but success with Rockbox. But just today, I accidentally connected via MTP to my Windows XP. After it told me there were no drivers available, i disconnected. Now my H10 hangs on the 'Emergency Connection' screen and won't show up on 'My Computer.' I've tried restarting Windows to no avail. The H10 still works fine, but I just can't connect to add files.

p.s. I forgot to read the rules closer. If this is moved to Gen Discussion I will not be upset.

p.p.s. I'm surprised this kind of problem hasn't come up before. After searching for a few hours, I only came upon one other person with this same problem.

Woodgrain, I had that problem and the good news is that it eventually went away although I don't know what fixed it.  If you look at My Computer/Properties/Hardware/Device Manager, I'll bet you see a RockBox with an "!" under Unknown Devices.

I think that something like deleting USB drivers so that they had to reinstall fixed the problem, but I did it over a long period of time and didn't keep good notes.

I hope that this reply at least gives you hope even if it didn't give you much information.

Falco98:
We should be proactive about this and send angry letters to iRiver demanding that future devices be UMS-compatible, without the need for the 'windows media player' bullshit (what a stupid idea that was...)
I have a H10 also, and though it's neat and all, it doesn't even compare with the power and simplicity of the h140...

Llorean:
Petitions to iRiver about the original firmware, especially ones that are just about UMS support, are fairly off-topic for these forums.

woodgrain:
I managed to fix this problem quite easily: I unplugged the USB link and plugged it in to another jack. Problem solved. My computer recognized a new hard drive and it's business as usual. Thanks for the replies.
