USB Device Not Recognized on Windows 7 - USB mouse
I have a 4 week old Inspiron 1545 with Windows 7 Home premium that has developed an error: USB errors while trying to install a Microsoft USB mouse on this Laptop. Interestingly, my Microsoft USB Mouse installed perfectly first time and worked for about 2 weeks, and then failed. In looking at the system restore points, it tells me that there have been two driver updates to the USB environment since the unit was shipped from Dell. I wonder if an automatic update from Microsoft has somehow inadvertently updated or replaced a Dell factory driver.
Two nights ago I spent 45 minutes with Dell tech support doing remote control bug fixing on this laptop. They werent able to fix it (in the time allowed). They downloaded at least one of their newest drivers onto this machine and rebooted it - and they seemed pretty savvy - but still not working. So I went ahead a did a system restore to a point about 10 days back because I could see that a USB driver would be affected (as shown in the system restore menus), and I would like to compliment Microsoft on this very cool functionality!
At this point, I've unplugged the USB mouse , used the Device Manager to delete the 'unknown device', and done a system restore back to what I suspected was a working point. But still getting a 'Device not recognized' warning every few minutes, and still don't have a working mouse. I don't want to have to do system restores back to pprevious dates, although I suspect this is one solution.

Just for grins, have you tried another usb mouse yet?

If it shows up as an unknown device, it's unlikely to be caused by a mouse driver problem. This means that the USB controller can't get some critical info from the piece of hardware. The driver being used for the mouse is either a driver provided by Windows, or one that came from Windows Update for that mouse. It wouldn't be a Dell driver in this case (it's not a piece of hardware embedded in the machine).
It's possible that the hardware is in a bad state. Please power off the machine, disconnect the mouse, pull the battery, and let it sit for about 15 minutes. Then connect everything up again and see if you still have this issue.
Do you see any other errors in device manager?

*try another mouse?* yes, I have tried both another known-good-working Microsoft wired USB mouse, and an ordinary Dell USB wired mouse. none of them work in this 1545 laptop. Also, I plugged the new Microsoft USB wireless mouse into my older HP laptop, and it worked flawlessly. (the older HP laptop runs XP pro and normally has the Microsoft wired USB mouse in it. XP 'found new hardware' and it worked in a few seconds. So I think we have 3 working mice.
I read Mark's reply and slapped my forehead - that could be it! But no joy. I powered everything off, disconnected everything including the mouse internal battery, and still getting 'USB device not recognized' as soon as I plugin the little USB mouse adapter.
Is there a log written anywhere that will give something more specific?
and no, there are no other errors in the device manager.Tuesday, January 05, 2010 12:50 AM
here's an entry from the Event viewer on this 1545...though I dont know what it means...this is about the time I plugged in the USB wireless dongle after powering down and then rebooting.
at 1830
Driver Management concluded the process to install driver FileRepository\usb.inf_amd64_neutral_e2b28ecac19a29af\usb.inf for Device Instance ID USB\VID_0000&PID_0000\5&1A53B0D9&0&1 with the following status: 0x0.

I actually meant to pull the battery on the laptop. Sorry that wasn't clear.
Did you try uninstalling all of the USB root hubs, then all of the USB controllers & then rebooting (so they'll reinstall)?

I'll try both of those later this evening. Uninstalling the root hubs, then the controllers will be the second step if the battery removal doesnt clear it. thanks for your continued support. I will let you know what happens.Wednesday, January 06, 2010 1:11 PM
success. pulling the battery out of the laptop for 5 minutes forced 'something'. after reinstalling battery, rebooting, then plugged in wireless USB dongle. got a popup window (I clicked first on the try icon that said 'installing new hardware click here for status') that told me it was searching for the appropriate windows driver...I'm guessing here, but it looked like it searched over the internet too...and it came back in about 20 seconds. said new hardware was ready to use.
Mark thnx for your help here.Thursday, January 07, 2010 1:41 AM
I am having the exact same issue. Same computer, same age. My external mouse was working one minute and the next not. I tried many of the same things. However, I get the same error when I do not have anything plugged into my USB ports, as well as other items will work in the ports, both mice work on my other computers, which leads me to believe there is something much deeper going on here. I have looked for all available driver, MS, and other updates available. This was the first other person I had found that had almost the exact same situation as myself.
I have done everything but a complete system rebuild (already done many restores almost to the date I received the laptop), however I personally think it is Windows 7 issue since my other Dell Laptop is working fine. Not sure what else than to just deal with having to use the laptop touch pad for now, as I have spent way more time on this than it warrants. Since all my other USB devices seem to work....for now.
If I figure something out, will share.Friday, January 15, 2010 1:35 AM
Thanks from me too...Tuesday, February 09, 2010 11:15 PM
Same laptop, same problem..WTF??? Am about ready to say "screw 7". Anyone find an answer yet?Wednesday, April 21, 2010 8:57 PM
I have been getting the same message/balloon on my 2 month old studio laptop for the past few weeks. However, for me it seems to be affecting my integrated webcam. When I try to turn it on, I am told that there is no supported webcam and the webcam is no longer listed under my device manager. Under my USB device list, one unknown device (clearly my 'missing' webcam) is noted.
I have chatted with my friends at Dell's tech support a number of times and still do not have any solution. It will work for a short time after it has been powered off and restarted, and then a short time later it goes missing again. I have removed the battery as well.
There must be a permanent fix for this! Any ideas?Saturday, May 22, 2010 4:43 PM
exact same problem. Same thing over the last few weeks this has started to happen. different computer. nothing wrong with the mouseTuesday, May 25, 2010 10:07 PM
tried the battery thing and it works temporarily.Wednesday, May 26, 2010 2:37 AM
This just started happening on my HP Pavilion laptop today. I've had the machine since March, so it's been working without a problem for about three months. The mouse still lights up and works on another laptop, so is functional. I am about as non-techie as they make them, and have not found my way around Windows 7 too well yet - no "new hardward detected" when I unplug and replug the USB mouse (mouse not detected or no plug & play notices in 7?).
My abilities are enough to bring myself to the mouse section of the hardware portion of the control panel. I see that the pad-mouse of the laptap is listed, but the Targus USB mouse is not. How to I get to look at driver updates as mentioned in previous posts to see if that is the problem?
I bought this laptop to assist in a job search because my old one kept freezing up part-way through on-line job applications, but I'm very disappointed that Windows 7 is making most of my previous applications and gizmos obsolete! - can't use my Palm Pilot, can't play older solitaire games, can't transfer 10 years' worth of emails because Outlook Express is not supported . . . for all the talk about how well this new operating system is designed, it's not intuitive like XP and prior versions and does not appear to have tried very hard to work with older versions of files and applications.
It's also preposterous to think that I have the most advanced operating system for Windows, on a 64-bit machine, and the only solution is to take the battery out for 15 mintues to see if that works!!! Maybe next you'll tell me to put it on the floor and give it kick or two? Or twist some tin foil on the mouse cable?
Sigh...Sunday, June 20, 2010 7:41 PM
Seeing similar issue on my desktop machine running Win7 64-bit. 1-2 months ago the USB mouse (a standard Logitech Laser) worked perfectly and then suddenly Win7 reports that the device is a unknown USB device.
Inserting the mouse into other machine works fine (also other Win7 64-bit machines) so it is not a hardware issue with the mouse nor the desktop as lots of other devices are connected through the USB hub. Also tried disconnecting any other USB device from the desktop machine to rule out low USB-power issues - same same...
Also tried using Nirsoft's USB Deview to remove all unknown USB-devices from the system but it did not solve the issue.
Any clues appreciated?

I've just recovered from a no-mouse situation by unpluging the powercord and removing the battery :-)
Thanks for the tip, finally one that works :-)Saturday, July 17, 2010 12:49 PM
I do not understand why this happens. The mouse does not work, but a pen works when plugged to that same USB port. Pathetic it is, but the fact still remains that the mouse does not work.
The solution was provided by Mark[MFST] in his posting near the top of this page: kill all the power supply, let the machine discharge internally, power the machine again.
Killing all the power supply means to disconnect from the mains, but also actually unplug the battery. Then wait a few minutes, so that all the internal electronics have time to discharge.
I tried to help the discharging by keeping the "power on" button pressed, and at the same time connecting and disconnecting the mouse in all the USB connectors, but I don't know if I was just being naif :-)
Anyway, this simple operation solved the no-mouse problem on my Sony Vaio.
In his posting, Mark also suggests that the USB root hubs be uninstalled, if needed be. They will be reinstalled when the machine reboots. In my case, this was not necessary, the "Kill All Power Supply" did the trick.Saturday, July 17, 2010 1:06 PM
Like they responded in the other replies, i had same exact problem did the battery thing were you take it out and put it back in and it worked amazingly, i have tried absolutely everything there is, from installing and uninstalling drivers, full factory image restore, buying new mice and still did not worked.
I thought that the battery thing was retarded and would not worked, but i said lets give it a try , it only takes couple seconds to take the battery out and snap it back in, amazingly my mouse works again.Wednesday, October 20, 2010 3:42 PM
I was skeptical of the battery removal test too. I had an update this morning and afterward my USB mice stopped working in any of my USB ports. Other devices worked in them, but not mice. Went out and bought a Microsoft mouse and tried to no avail. Hit the interwebs and finally found this thread. Thanks guys, my wireless mice work again. Removed the power supply and battery after a shutdown. Let it chill out for a few mins, plugged everything back in and fired it up and they work. Thanks.Tuesday, November 16, 2010 8:54 PM
O M G, I have spent 5 hours tonight trying to resolve the exact same problem - my Dell Inspiron 1545with Vista suddenly started giving "USB device not recognized" messages on my mouse and wouldn't recognize two other mice I tried. I uninstalled all the USB ports, reinstalled them updated all the drivers for the mouse, Dell, etc and spent 2 hours on the phone with an IT expert friend doing all sorts of things but nothing helped, including a system restore. Thank heavens for this thread! I took out the battery for 15 minutes and voila! It's working again! Thank you Mark!!Monday, November 22, 2010 2:56 AM
worked for me also, i unplugged the cord and then took off the battery for 5 minutes, now my mouse and usb ports are working.. this is really weird that it randomly started failing. i have a dell inspiron 1545 with win 7 upgrade version 64 bit.Wednesday, December 08, 2010 4:49 AM
I have a VAIO computer and it too has lost webcam and wireless (usb) mouse.
I have tried another mouse same problem. What makes matters worse, I was using skype to video chat with my son while he was in Sydney, Austraila. If anyone fines a fix, please let me know.
BobThursday, December 09, 2010 12:46 PM
Interesting, I am running a Vaio notebook running Win 64bit using a Logitech laser mouse, and it does work fine on any other pc. I've borrowed another Logitech Laser mouse and I have the same problem, it does not work. The mouse and webcam stopped working last night. (Dec09,2010)
BobThursday, December 09, 2010 12:50 PM
Yep, removing the battery worked for me too on a HP 6730b laptop.
When this happened non of the USB ports worked and nor did the fingerprint device. After unplugging from power, removing the battery and then put all back in and startup it started to install the fingerprint driver and all bluetooth related drivers. After that all worked again.
Thank you for sharing this resolution Mark!

Does Microsoft expect every Windows 7 user in the world to pull out the battery, wait for 5-10 mins and resume work?Monday, December 20, 2010 2:43 PM
Hi All!
I encounter this problem now for several days.
I don't think this is an issue due to the USB Port installation.
I also browsed the internet to find solutions.
Here my problems. I bought a Dell U3011 and the internal hub gets properly recognized by my laptop (Windows 7 64Bit) and my fedora 13 server.
My Windwos 7 64Bit Ultimate Desktop doesn't regognize/install the drivers properly. No my keyboard (cheap Saitek) isn't regognizes anymore. I bought a new one a wireless Logitech MK300 including mouse. No way to get is properly installed.
I tried to uninstall, to power off, to delete the cache1.inf, etc pp....
Outside of Windwos during startup my mouse and keyboard work like a charme. Then after up to 5 Minutes after windwos failed to install drivers (standard drivers should work with those components) neither the keyboard nor the mouse work anymore. When I then plug in my mini traveller trust mouse (also a usb device) it works, just like all of my external usb sticks and harddisks.....
As I said m other Windows 7 installation on my laptop regognizes all devices properly. Fedora too.
I never had trouble with my pc's past 2 years and no other software got installed or changed.
I hope there's somebody around who has an idea how to refresh or clean certain parts of windows without the need of a reinstall.
Right now I'm only able to work remotely on my machine. Beeing a freelancing consultant I can only say all the trys are getting quite expensive right now.Tuesday, December 21, 2010 3:22 AM
Yes, the Dell machine isn't the problem its my zotac minitix pc. I develop critical applications and I used several usb devices with it. Mouse, Keyboard, Camera, Touchpad, mp3 player, drawing board, webcam, printer,...
but with a sudden my keyboard doesn't work anymore (but it still works on my other pc's) and a new one isn't installable as is the mouse or the DellU3011 monitor usb hub.
But on my other Pcs everything is fine.
I didn't have to install any drivers on the other pcs and laptops. And even if I do,... it still doesn't work on this particular machine.Tuesday, December 21, 2010 3:44 AM
Thank you I'll give it a try.Tuesday, December 21, 2010 4:22 AM
I had the problem again so I think it is safe to say that the problem with my laptop can be pin pointed to my Nokia E52 when it is attached to the laptop. The problem occurs when I attach or detach the phone's USB cable from the computer while the computer is resuming from hibernation. There is no problem when I wait 5-10 minutes to be sure the pc is fully up and running again. This only happens with this phone. There is no problem if I do the same with the usb antenna from my wireless mouse.

Already did, everything is up-to-date.
Thanks JPTuesday, December 21, 2010 2:06 PM
I don't think there is much chance with Nokia...
According to this thread it happens with a variety of USB devices not just Nokia, so I believe it's a Windows issue. And even if it would be related to third party drivers, then Windows should not constantly warn with the "USB Device Not Recognized" message. Normally when such message occurs it only happens once and stops when you disconnect the device. In this situation it keeps on complaining even when the device is disconnect and even when you have disabled the problem item in the device management list.
Thanks JPTuesday, December 21, 2010 2:46 PM
I guess it is some kind of Windows Certificate problem.
I gambled around today and i fixed my problems.
Here's how.
Once you go to "Control Panel" -> "Hardware and Sound" (not the HardwareManager under System!!!)-> "Devices and Printers" you should see your usb devices which are currently connected to the PC. You should also see those devices which cause problems.
Right click on the device and open "Setting/Properties" (Sorry I have a german version,... am not really sure).
Here you have to open the "Hardware"-Tab. Open "Settings".
Go to "Change Settings"
Then open "Driver"-Tab. Here's a button "update drivers" -> Choose the "Search on computer"-option. Point to Folder C:\Windows\System32 and check the "search in subfolders too" option. Then proceed.
Now you should get an Error Message, I've at least never seen bevor on Windows (Completely Red and White). It tells you something about the origin of the driver and that it might be unsecure to install it.
Proceed with "Yes, I want to install",....
Voilá! Everything works properly!
I'm really wondering why Windows just gives you that information on the driver with this kind of driver reinstall process....
I hope this might help others, too.
Good luck!
SebastianTuesday, December 28, 2010 2:52 AM
That's really funny.
Maybe Microsoft shall sign it's own drivers! The keyboard I used doesn't need no additonal drivers and I never installed any. It's the standard driver provided by windows which caused that problem....
It's not the first time I had trouble with this. But in this case it was much harder than before. Previousely Windwos just complaint if I was sure to use that driver and installed it properly afterwards.
Thanks for the tip! I used the filechecker already and I also did sfc scannow,... but no problem where found.
It could also be a problem with not properly installed updates, or uninstalled drivers. I whish there was some kind of "clean-up-Windows" function, which refreshes the system in some kind. Repairing Windows often doesn't work and sometimes leads to the need to reinstall applications and that's quite hard with development environments..... and takes too long.
It would be fine if the installation of driver would work the same with both ways. One via the hardware manager and the other way via the hardware properties. It's hard for users to find out that there's a difference.
Windwos is one amorphous system it is definitely hard to maintain such a beast,... but I'm not looking forward into the future. In 8 years we might have a merely untouchable system and linux might be a much better choice for standard users...Wednesday, December 29, 2010 5:42 PM
Please power off the machine, disconnect the mouse, pull the battery, and let it sit for about 15 minutes. Then connect everything up again and see if you still have this issue.
It worked for me in my LG R480 windows 7.
Thanks a lot.
Thursday, December 30, 2010 3:59 PM
Thanks all. I had the same problem on my desktop; reboots or driver updates didn't help.
Solved it by shutting down, disconnecting the power plug and reconnecting it 15 minutes later.Tuesday, January 25, 2011 7:49 PM
I have a Toshiba satellite laptop upgraded from Vista to Windows 7.
The first time I had the "USB device not recognized..." problem, I tried the trick of pulling out the battery (I spent three nights reading different forums and found the trick), the problem had gone away for about a year. The second time the battery trick worked for about only one month. Now I am having this problem randomly, sometimes, as frequent as a couple of days. Some poeple posted cases (in other forums) caused by damaged USB ports on the computer or the plug for the mouse, I chekced mine they don't look like being damaged. It gets really frustrating.Sunday, January 30, 2011 4:16 AM
Hi Fellas,
I´ve excact the same problem ! I spent over 6 hours by reading etc.
In my opinion it´s a hardware problem, especially the battery/mainboard ; My battery stoped working for approx 6 days, after I got problems with the Webcam, sometimes it stoped and ran again after rebooting. Now for 3 days it stoped total to work.
Every day I get i message about an Unknow Device like you all; I think it hasn´t to do anything about driver signing or Windows Update etc.
If I´ll update the Unknow Device by a driver from c:/.../system32 , it tells me that the driver is up to date...
I updated Bios and so on already, nothing happened...
I hope some of my mates has a HP Laptop and a suitable battery too due to I can test on myself
Further suggestions are welcome

I also bought a new laptop Asus P52F serie with windows 7 64 bit.
The usb mouse is not detected. I tested the mouse on other laptops and there it's working fine.
I did the thing with the battery and removing usb hubs on the Asus laptop but that did not help for me.
Strange enought the mouse is working in the bios. USB legasy is enabled.
When Windows starts loading the mous stops working and is not detected in windows device manager.
When i boot the laptop connected with the usb mouse the lights are on.
When the laptop is turned on and then connect the USB mouse the lights will not turn on :S
I tried everything!
any suggestions are welcome, thank you!Friday, February 04, 2011 10:29 AM

If you have to take the battery out to resolve this type of issue, should the battery be replaced? I am really new so I don't know.Sunday, July 03, 2011 8:57 PM
OK, lets see
1) check for a BIOS update for your machine
2) did you upgrade from XP/Vista, if so go back to it
3) if the USB still is at issue, backup everything and run the restore

Hi folks,
I have a problem along these lines, and I am an IT professional.
A customer gave me the Dell Inspiron 1545 with complaint of screen black no cursor using Windows Vista on 64-bit machine.
After a long series of tests, and connecting the hard drive to my own machine to verify that the disk itself is not faulty, I backed up her important files and scanned them for virus and malware. Satisfied it was clean, the disk was reformatted using Dell's recovery disks. After restoring to Vista, I upgraded it to Windows 64 Ultimate.
All went well and customer was happy until she plugged in her wireless Microsoft usb mouse, and the computer went back to an unusable state- black screen no cursor.
Booting into Safe Mode, running Repair Utility gave no result, and she recalls that issues began with errors from the USB port, not only from the mouse but from an external camera.
Is this a USB issue on the motherboard? If so, I am recommending a different machine, as I truly dislike Dell with its proprietary issues, and do not plan to keep repairing the same issue.
Thank youTuesday, July 05, 2011 3:42 PM
Does the mouse work fine on another system?
Does the system work fine without the mouse?
Does the system work fine with a different mouse?

I've been having the same problem with my brand new HP computer not recognizing my HP printer (only a year old). I had uninstalled and reinstalled the printer, the drivers, changed USB cables, and more.
I am going to try the unplug thing tonight. I've been working on this issue for almost two weeks and have two days left in which to return the computer. Several of you have talkeda about removing the battery, so I assume you're all on laptops. I have a desktop so is there anything I should do besides just unplug from the power source and wait 30 minutes?Tuesday, August 23, 2011 1:28 PM
The picture below shows COnflicts/sharing. I tried unplugging battery, updated bios. I think the hardware im using is outdated.

'reinstall driver' or 'update driver software' - > Browse my computer for driver software -> Put the path 'C:
This should install the USB devise
Step 3:
If you get an error while installing that, the next step is to go to C:/Windows/System32/drivers/USBSTOR.SYS
and paste the file USBSTOR.SYS file only mentioned in Step 1 (if prompted to replace, pls allow)Sunday, October 16, 2011 1:35 AM

correction to posted fix on Sunday, October 16, 2011 1:35 AM, >> USBSTORE.PNF not USTSTORE.PNF Most likely, USBSTORE.SYS won't be found in the inf folder, if even needed at all.Monday, November 14, 2011 1:01 PM
The first fix posted on Sunday, January 03, 2010 11:02 PM is the correct answer to Inspiron 1545 problems with this mouse: "It's possible that the hardware is in a bad state. Please power off the machine, disconnect the mouse, pull the battery (out of the laptop,) and let it sit for about 15 minutes. Then connect everything up again and see if you still have this issue." The HP Retractable (Black) Mobile USB Mouse (NY225AA)does not need any special drivers to operate on the Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop notebook. The Windows 7 system uses it's USBSTORE.inf driver to install this mouse. After 9 grueling hours of following advice from five different help forums between HP and Windows, I hope this post saves someone else's time and gets them up and running in seconds!! If the mouse worked fine and then one day it suddenly generates an "unknown device" error and won't work, and....as in my case....no other USB mice wired or wireless, new or old, would work in any of the USB ports, then the solution I quoted above is the proper fix. Just remove power, let it sit, and restart. NOTE ***I first went to the Device Manager (start > control panel > Device Manager) and found the "unknown device" with the yellow exclamation mark error (mine was under Universal Serial Bus Controllers)and right-clicked > uninstall. Then I right-clicked and selected scan for hardware changes to ensure all USB Root Hubs were cleared of any warning symbols. Then I followed the battery removal instructions above.*** Worked like a charm!!!!

This is just simply pathetic that it actually works:
1. USB device unrecognised. No mouse works on any port
2. Laptop: HP 6730b
3. Mouse(s):Microsoft Mouse
4. Disconnected everything, removed battery for 5 minutes
5. Reconnected and installed battery again
6. Voila! All working again.
Thanks all!

I have a HP EliteBook 8730W. was baffled when the mouse just stopped working. The mousepad thingy on the laptop itself was fine but i really dislike using it. I got the answer in this forum... basically
same as above
1. Power down completly
2. Remove battery
3.Wait 5 minutes
4. Plug everything back in and power up.
5. Everything now works!Wednesday, December 14, 2011 3:29 PM
I agree. What I did first was boot from both a Windows Dart disk and an aftermarket conglomerate disk and neither would load any USB peripherals. I noticed when I first had the problem that Windows complained with no devices plugged in which led me to try the hardware solution first. The controller most probably locked up. Happens all the time in cars.....Thursday, December 15, 2011 3:13 PM
Thanks Mark, removed the battery from my Sony Vaio, waited a bit of time, then re-installed and booted up and all is working 100% again, you're a genius man! Sincerely, Chris O.Wednesday, December 28, 2011 7:25 PM
While my mouse and keyboard were working fine any other USB device i plugged in would fail and not install successfully. This was on a Lenovo desktop as well. I gave the "pull the CMOS battery" a try and it seems to have corrected the issue as my flash drives and what not are now working as they should and installing without issue. Thank you for your post and solution, this is something I wont forget to try in the future.Thursday, January 05, 2012 3:40 PM
Thanks Mark, removed the battery from my Sony Vaio, waited a bit of time, then re-installed and booted up and all is working 100% again, you're a genius man! Sincerely, Chris O.
When I started reading this thread, I was rather skeptical about the suggestion to remove the laptop battery, I had already re-booted twice, changed the AA batteries in the mouse, downloaded software from Logitech and installed, got out two old USB corded mice that didn't work (which do work fine on my wife's iMac, so I was about at my wits end.
I do have a Sony Vaio, so when I read your post I figured I wouldn't have anything to lose by removing the battery, and sure enough as soon as it booted up, it recognized all my mice again, no problems!

Yep, removing the battery worked for me too on a HP 6730b laptop.
When this happened non of the USB ports worked and nor did the fingerprint device. After unplugging from power, removing the battery and then put all back in and startup it started to install the fingerprint driver and all bluetooth related drivers. After that all worked again.
Thank you for sharing this resolution Mark!
Thanks JP
this also worked for the fingerprint reader (Egistec ES603) on my Lenovo V570! been fighting it for 1-2 hours now and was about to do a full format!! who knew it was so trivial! excellent work and many thanks.Sunday, January 29, 2012 3:36 AM
I have a Dell Inspiron as well and tonight my mouse just stopped working. I tried a few of the things then read about removing the battery. That worked like a charm. Took the battery out for 5 mins. Once reconnected, my mouse was recognized. Such a simple solution! Thanks whoever suggested it!Tuesday, March 06, 2012 2:03 AM
Okay look the whole pulling the battery thing IS NOT a suitable fix IMO!! Yes it works but only for awhile... And having to shut down, pull the battery etc. 3 - 4 times every few hours of working on the laptop is a total pain in the !#$! There has to be a better fix then having to stop what I'm doing and shut everything down whenever it happens!
Somebody please explain how to fix this crap once and for all!!!!!Sunday, March 18, 2012 7:32 AM
ThanX A lot MArk ur Advice really worked thanks a lot once againSunday, April 29, 2012 11:34 PM
There are some very good ideas here, but if they all fail, and especially if you have a laptop, and the one im trying to fix gets pretty hot, you may want to consider that the Chipset has gone.
Thermal expantion and contraction have probably caused the soldering under the chipset to crack or detach.
You could fix that if you were to reball the Chipset to the motherboard :-)
Thanks everyone :-)
I tried everything ive seen here plus Windows XP/Vista and a recovery Mini Windows XP, nothin'.Friday, May 11, 2012 2:45 AM
I have an Acer laptop, 10 months old with Win 7 Pro, same problem. The mouse works perfectly, just not on my laptop. I also have done systems restore without any luck, my updates are all done. Please anybody, help.Saturday, July 21, 2012 5:59 AM
I just wanted to let u know, I had this same issue for about 2 weeks. Basically what happened was a bad install of my AMD Chipset drivers. When I attempted to upgrade, the install didn't go all the way through.
I then restarted my system, and BAM! No Mouse or Keyboard functionality thru USB.
Even when I went into SAFE MODE the Mouse and Keyboard were not functional. The only time they worked was when the computer first attempted to start, BEFORE windows loaded.
So, this means that your issue is a software problem.
I thought it was some other software that I installed, and ran a restore session, but that wasn't the issue. Still no functionality.
I even tried removing my CMOS battery, to reset it, since some people said that had solved their problems...Still nothing.
I then read other forums around the web using my Android phone to try and find a solution, only those solutions were no help.
I was also advised to run: MSCONFIG and Hide all Windows programs and then stop every other driver, source from loading (of course if my mouse and kb worked, I would have tried that).
I had even read that because I was using USB, that I should try using a PS/2 Mouse and Keyboard connection.
It took me 2 weeks to get the correct PS2 adapter that worked, which would essentially allow me access to my system again...
I Purchased a USB A Female to PS2 (MDIN6) Male Adapter (for Mouse) from http://www.SFCable.com
This my friends, was a lifesaver. I only have one PS2 port on my system, so I used my mouse to try every option I had previously read about. Of course you cannot type because the keyboard doesn't work, so you need to know the location of the folder where the programs you are trying to run are.
So, a little after I got back into my system, and I closed down all programs, the warning screen came up that ALL of my USB Ports failed and could not be updated. I even Uninstalled every last USB port from the System Properties and restarted, and still that didn't work.
I had forgotten that during the time when this problem arose, there was a failed install of my AMD chipset drivers, so luckily I had not deleted the source file and I tried to reinstall, and VIOLA! I'm back up and running and my USB ports are restored and everything is working!
I hope this solution is able to help other people out there.

I have a toshiba satalite and not only do i have this mouse issue i also have no sound. I can run my usb fan that goes under my laptop but no mouse will work on it. they do work in other laptops tho. they don't even act like they get power to them. This just happened one day. My computer just shut down one day then froze up and then this was the deal. i got the puter working but still no sound or usb mouse. i am in process of trying shut down battery drain method but i don't have faith it will work.Saturday, July 06, 2013 2:59 AM
My thanks as well! Who would have thought this was a solution (You, I guess!). Same story, and thankfully same success with the powering down.Tuesday, January 28, 2014 6:51 PM
I saw all the success with the battery removal from other users and while I'm sure that works for some people I thought I'd share that I simply removed the mouse using Device Manager (highlight and hit delete key) and then forced it to scan for hardware changes (Action, Scan for hardware changes). That fixed me right up.Thursday, February 27, 2014 1:33 AM
I too have this same problem on my Dell Inspiron laptop computer. First my Ipod wasn't getting recognized, than external hard drive, than mouse, than, thumb drive.
I have deleted and installed new drivers to no avail, I have changed the USB power setting so that the USB is always on. I have tried some registry fixes, I have restarted a billion times. I tried restore points. I have NOT tried pulling the battery but I will tonight.
For now if I turn on the computer I have about 1-2 minutes where my device is recognized but then it stops and pretends it can't find it anymore. This is a step up from when it stop recognizing things completely all the time.
I personally think this is a windows 7 error. If pulling the battery doesn't work along with reinstalling drivers I will try re-installing windows 7. If that doesn't work I'm going to try to "up?"-grade to windows 8. After that I'm never buying Microsoft again, on to Apple, this is ridiculous that there is no easy solution.Monday, January 12, 2015 1:33 PM
I had the same problem with a Toshiba Satellite running Windows 7 Ultimate. The battery removal trick did not work for me. I ended up uninstalling ALL items under the USB section of the Device Manager (do NOT also delete drivers!!!), then rebooting. At first, Windows would not re-boot, and the only boot options I saw were Start Normally, or Repair Startup. I forced power-down, then used the F8 key while powering/rebooting to get to the boot options page. I then booted in safe mode, no networking, and that seems to have worked. My mouse is now working again.

OK, I had a similar one... I just did a reinstall of Win7 due to some issues, and my USB 2.0 port would not work with my mouse. It worked with everything else, and the 3.0 ports worked with the mouse. Nothing in Device Manager had the standard warning about being "unknown". No yellow exclamation point.
However, when I opened up "other devices" just out of curiosity, I had 2 different "unknown devices". They still didn't have the warning symbol. I believe Windows saw them and was able to figure out what they were, but nothing more than that. Even running an app I use called 'Unknown Device Identifier' didn't show any errors. I had Windows search for the best driver, and it fixed both. One was extra features on my Bluetooth radio, and the other was the mouse itself. SO anyone with a similar issue where some devices work on a USB port, and others don't, but they work on the rest may just find they have an "unknown device" that isn't really "unknown".
Just thought I'd add my 2 cents, as this was a very odd fix for a problem.Tuesday, April 12, 2016 6:07 PM

Bermudian international and former Ipswich winger Reggie Lambe, is set to join TFC pending receipt of his international transfer papers.
With Joao Plata's re-signing said to be close to completion, the 20-year-old, who impressed Toronto's staff during a short trial in October, is another attacking piece as the club looks to continue shaping its system under head coach Aron Winter.
"We are very happy to add a young and talented player like Reggie Lambe," Winter said. "Reggie is a dangerous winger with a great amount of speed and ability. He will be an important player and will fit in well with our club."
Lambe began his career with English Championship side Ipswich before going on loan to Bristol where he made seven appearances earlier this year. He has 12 caps for his home nation and most recently competed in the second round of CONCACAF World Cup qualifying before Bermuda was eliminated by Guyana.
Lambe has four goals for the island nation since joining his country's full side at the age of 16.

Tiwa Savage's new Video, Wanted, could be seen as anything but decent. It may have received an unequalled number of views on the clock, but the criticisms she got were also countless.
Wanted seems to have opened a can of worms on Tiwa's morality. What however is not in doubt is that Tiwa gave the video her all. The only thing left was to bare it all.
The new video shows Tiwa like never seen before. Raw. Uncut. She looked caution in the eye. She was indeed found wanting. Wearing a brown breast tube and a piece of cloth seldom covering her sensitive parts, Tiwa goes on rampage. Bizarre. She went all out. Nude. Free for all.
*Tiwa Savage in Wanted
What is however confounding is Tee Billz endorsement of the raunchy video. Tee Billz, Manager turned husband of Tiwa believes Wanted is purely artistic, comparable only to the best in the world.
But this is…Nigeria! Here, morality, decency and decorum are still virtues. There's no doubt that sex sells. And in the evolving world, sex appeal sells even faster. While the western world cherishes nudity and readily brandishes it, much to the admiration of viewers, such culture rarely survives here. No. Not for long. Ask True Story singer, Timaya. He now knows better. The Nigerian society may be quick to embrace, but even quicker to rebuke.
*Tiwa Savage in Wanted
What is however unclear is that neither Tee Bills nor Tiwa have full grasp of her listenership. Lest, one would be quick to ask: what was Tiwa thinking? Art? Displaying such raunchiness? It's hard to see.
While art readily provides one with a means of expression, it breathes freedom. Art may be a mere reflection after all, but it reveals the inner self of one. Is Wanted Tiwa's reflection? Tee billz may be privy to Tiwa's privacy, but the Tiwa we see, at least from the outside, is a blazing star. Not a soft porn star!
*Tiwa Savage in Wanted
Shouldn't Tee Billz be taken aback that the raunchy video came on the heels of his marriage? No. He's preoccupied with breeding the best stereotype. Yet, he forgets that it was Tiwa's sonorous voice and originality that endeared her. Not nudity.
Tiwa Savage has merely just started, as she says. She may just be baring it all next time out. But is she not a wonderful singer with her clothes on?

Bronislaus B. Kush TELEGRAM & GAZETTE STAFF
Published Saturday March 9, 2013 at 6:00 am
Updated Saturday March 9, 2013 at 1:01 pm
State Rep. Daniel B. Winslow, a former presiding justice of the state district court in Wrentham and chief counsel to former Gov. Mitt Romney, has launched his campaign to become the Republican nominee in the special election to fill the U.S. Senate seat left vacant when John F. Kerry was appointed U.S. secretary of state.
Mr. Winslow, a 54-year-old lawyer serving his first term as the state representative from the 9th Norfolk District, kicked off his campaign Thursday night with a speech at his campaign headquarters, in his hometown of Norfolk.
He was scheduled to meet Friday with local supporters at two Worcester diners but couldn't complete the trip because of the snowstorm.
In a telephone interview with the Telegram & Gazette, Mr. Winslow, who studied political science at Tufts University and earned his law degree from Boston College School of Law, described himself as a fiscal conservative who is moderate on social issues.
He said the Congress needs "common-sense" legislators who can break through the partisan gridlock that has bogged down the legislative process.
"I want to be principled, but, if I become elected, America will always come first," he said.
He said that many Capitol Hill legislators are more interested in "finger pointing" than solving the nation's fiscal woes, including finding ways to control rising spending levels and reducing the nation's mounting debt. He said he could make a difference by joining 12 similarly-minded senators from either party who are committed to compromising to pass needed legislation.
"You don't need 100 senators to pass a bill. Ten to 12 senators who are interested in what's best for the country could get things done, and that's why this race in Massachusetts has national implications," Mr. Winslow said.
He said it's time for the Republican Party to go back to its Lincolnian roots and to work on issues affecting women and "new Americans."
"GOP shouldn't stand for grand old party. It should stand for growth, opportunity and prosperity," he said.
Mr. Winslow said he'd like to see the budget cut by the amount that would result from sequester.
But he stressed that he is against the automatic, across-the-board parings that would occur by sequester and added that Congress should specifically pinpoint the areas or programs that should be trimmed to minimize the impact to Americans.
In his speech, Mr. Winslow noted that he liked "Fluff" in his sandwich but not in the budget.
He said he'd like to see cuts in entitlement programs, but added that he wouldn't endanger the ability of senior citizens to live off their Social Security.
Mr. Winslow said a reform of Social Security might include taking a look at scaling back how much generally well-off individuals can pull from the system.
"Maybe Social Security should be based on eligibility and need," he explained. "Does a rich person really need a Social Security check? We have to make sure that Social Security provides a safety net today while providing the future needs of 20-year-olds who are paying into the system."
Mr. Winslow also believes the best way to raise revenue and to generate jobs is to cut business regulations.
He also believes U.S. companies need a "level playing field" to compete with their counterparts overseas.
Mr. Winslow noted that an overhaul in the national tax code is long overdue and that Congress has to close tax loopholes that benefit special interests.
He said that he is the only candidate with connections outside the Route 128 belt, noting that his father, Joel, lives in Oxford and that his family is originally from Northampton.


text: TAMPA – Wednesday in the lead up to an appearance by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump at the Florida State Fairgrounds, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani praised the enthusiastic crowd in attendance and took a dig at Trump's opponent Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. "I want to say something for the media that is covering this: Do you think that Hillary Clinton could produce a crowd with this kind of enthusiasm?" he said. "I can think of only one really enthusiastic crowd that would gather for Hillary Clinton – a grand jury. Boy, would I love to present that case. Now they would have enthusiasm." The attendees chanted "lock her up" in unison, but Giuliani was quick to say that defeating her at the ballot box would be the best method of recourse for her alleged wrongdoing because the Department of Justice under President Barack Obama had failed its duties by refusing to handle a case that he described to be bigger than Watergate and possibly the Teapot Dome scandal of the 1920s. "I gave a lot of my life to the Justice Department," he said. "Now I am embarrassed of and I believe it has been made

What did muenster-dummel mean on the Norgran record jackets?
For those born after the LP era, the terms may draw a blank. Norgran was one of two labels founded by Norman Granz (1918-2001), who created Jazz At The Philharmonic in the 1940s. His other early label was Clef. Norgran and Clef eventually morphed ino Verve. Granz was a pioneer of the jazz concert and a tough, resourceful businessman. He guided the careers of Ella Fitzgerald and Oscar Peterson. He was an unyielding champion of racial equality. On JATP tours he fought back against bigoted bookers, promoters and policeand won. His mien was often dour. Whitney Balliett once wrote that he had bullying eybrows."
Still, as Dan Morgenstern observed when we were discussing Granz yesterday, Norman was not without a sense of humor." Granz found pretentiousness in the hifalutin' hype that record companies ground out about high fidelity, so he concocted a phrase that ended up on the covers of his Norgran and Clef albums.
Jack Dummel was Granz's favorite recording engineer. Muenster was his favorite cheese.
Looking around the internet for related information, I came across this audiophile chat list entry from a record collector excited about finding an old Billie Holiday album:
I found this gem at goodwill today. It needs some more cleaning but sounds pretty good. It says at the top-right Muenster-Dummel hi fi recording so I'm thinking it is a German recording.
Norman might have managed a smile.

I am making an online reporting site .I am asking user to fill 3 page
report one by one .I am keeping all value in session.Here Also checking at
every servlet and jsp whether user is valid or not as guest can see the
report but can not fill the report.
A valid user can upload database and only administrator can download
database files.
There are also other simple report to be filled on the site.
These all report are to filled fortnightly and if user miss then he should be
emailed from the server .
I had made this in servlets,jsp,javabeans(with set and get methods only)
Problem I always facing that my session value get lost very easly and
user is sent back to login page . An example
I am using tomcat 3.1
In my login page my session value get lost frequently.I am using
session.setAttribute("logon.isDone", name); in servlets and In every jsp's
I am checking as
I have taken all initiative to build this site.I am the only programmer
working here so all decision is up to me.
Now my question is whether by using EJB,JMS I can make it more
effective.At present I am learning ejb and site has got facility to use
EJB,JMS,XML.My session problem could be solved.
thanks in advance

my reply may be little late but i felt like replying so mailing.
Firstly there shud not be any problem with session in Tomcat. Instead of tomcat if u can use some other web server and then also get same problem then problem shud be in the code of JSP/servlets. Becos session handling is the basic feature that a web server shud support.I dun know how u have used "request.getSession() method." Please check that boolean values as it may corrupt ur session.
Secondly using EJBs i dun think it is necessary in ur case.
just now i have read one article here by Ed roman.U must also go thru this. :) hope it helps.
do reply abt ur session problem what happened n all..

Amit rightly said there is no practicality in using EJB for your application. Normal session handling should work fine

BRADENTON, Fla. - Do you ever wish when you see terrible things happening around you that you could do something to change them? That's the way a group of senior citizens felt in a Bradenton mobile home park. And wait until you hear what they accomplished.
Several hundred seniors live at the Horseshoe Cove RV Park in Bradenton. Although they've arrived there late in their lives, they've formed strong bonds and close friendships. But as more and more of their friends and relatives developed cancer, they decided to go on the warpath -- and they have worked wonders.
Linda and Alan Hager are signing folks up for a mini-Relay For Life at the mobile home park to raise money for the American Cancer Society. Linda was diagnosed with breast cancer shortly after they moved there. "I had to have surgery, chemo and radiation; just like everybody else, you think that was the end and was scared to death."
But she survived. And to show their gratitude, she and Alan launched a fight against the dreaded disease. "We decided to do a little mini relay, and we had a goal of $500 and hat year we raised $10,000…it was pretty amazing."
So now they are once again preparing luminaries for this year's mini relay. "This is our fifth one. This time we're over $33,000 today, and that puts us over $100,000 for the for the 5 relays."
The seniors raised the money by washing golf carts, giving dinners, and making bracelets to sell. People also pay $5 each for luminary bags that will hold candles to honor loved ones who've faced cancer.
Fancis Davis, recently out of the hospital from cancer surgery, is the top fund raiser. "I'll just sit in front of my computer, and in my email contact list I just send out emails. So all my friends and family, and was amazed that the checks rolled in." She raised $1,100.
The relayers, ranging in age from 55 to 92 years old, will walk around the park led by survivors who have this message for those still fighting. "Don't give up; I didn't give up. The oncologist calls me a miracle every time I see her. But just wouldn't give up, I just kept on fighting," says Davis.
Alan Hager recently shaved his head to celebrate his wife's 10 years as a cancer survivor. And he hopes the success of the Horseshoe Cove mini-relay will inspire others to join the fight. "It would be wonderful if every park, RV resort, not only in Florida but across the country, got together and did a relay similar to this. Can you imagine how much money would be raised to fight cancer."
The residents at Horseshoe Cove say never let anyone tell you you're too old to make a difference. They are living proof that you can.

The pop hopeful, who is on probation, is accused of drug possession.
By RODNEY THRASH, Times Staff Writer
Published December 2, 2007
TAMPA - Last month, a Hillsborough Circuit judge spared former American Idol contestant Jessica Sierra.
Gregory Holder withheld guilt and sentenced Sierra, 22, to a year's probation on charges of battery and possession of cocaine. He warned her that if she violated the probation, she could get prison time.
Just 13 days after that warning, the fallen pop hopeful is behind bars, in an Orient Road Jail cell without bond.
Tampa police Lt. Ron McMullen said officers asked Sierra to leave the Full Moon Saloon shortly after 2 a.m. Saturday. She became physical and argumentative with saloon patrons and the friends who tried to calm her.
She tried to push away and flee the Ybor City bar before officers arrested her and charged her with disorderly intoxication and resisting arrest without violence. Sierra also was charged with violation of probation for felony battery and possession of cocaine.
"She was extremely inebriated," said McMullen, who didn't know Sierra's blood-alcohol level at the time of arrest.
It has been a long fall for Sierra, who made the Idol top 10 in 2005.
Tampa police arrested her in April after she threw a cocktail glass at a patron of a Hyde Park Cafe.
Two months later, a local rental car company said Sierra kept a vehicle 12 days beyond its due date without paying the bill.
Recently, she seemed to be turning her life around. A reality series that follows Sierra and eight other celebrities through detoxification and treatment will premiere on VH1 in January.
Last month, after Holder's warning, her defense attorney told the St. Petersburg Times that Sierra would head to California to continue drug and alcohol treatment. On Saturday, he couldn't explain much of anything, including why his client was in Tampa on Friday.
"I've just heard about this arrest," said John Fitzgibbons. "I don't have any details."

Indiana University to host Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- The U.S. State Department and the International Research & Exchanges Board have announced that Indiana University has been selected as a host for the flagship program of President Barack Obama's Young African Leaders Initiative.
Beginning in mid-June, IU's Bloomington and Indianapolis campuses will host 25 of Sub-Saharan Africa's brightest young people between the ages of 25 and 35 for a six-week academic and leadership development institute it is developing for the Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders.
Launched in 2014, the Mandela Washington Fellowship empowers young African leaders through academic coursework, leadership training, mentoring, networking, professional opportunities and support for activities in their communities.
Fellows are leaders from 49 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa who have established records of accomplishment in promoting innovation and positive change in their organizations, institutions, communities and countries.
Applications for the fellowships are highly competitive. More than 40,000 people applied for the 1,000 spots in the 2016 program.
IU's Mandela Washington Fellows join their peers from about 40 U.S. colleges and universities who will meet with Obama at a town hall during a presidential summit in August in Washington, D.C. Select fellows will spend an additional six weeks in professional development training with U.S. non-governmental organizations, private companies and government agencies.
Working closely with the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational Affairs and its implementing partner, IREX, IU and other host institutions have designed academic programs that will challenge, inspire and empower these young leaders from Africa.
"We are excited to be selected to host the Mandela Washington Fellowship, the flagship program of President Obama's Young African Leaders Initiative," said Teshome Alemneh, IU associate vice president for international research and development. "Through this program, the Office of International Development leverages IU's strengths and experiences to advance efforts to enhance leadership skills and experiences of young leaders from around Sub-Saharan Africa.
"IU's participation in the Mandela Washington Fellowship program represents a commitment of the university to global engagement and promotion of people-to-people relationships with sub-Saharan African countries," said Alemneh, who will direct the IU program. "It provides our students, faculty and community with an opportunity to develop mutually beneficial networks and become active player in developing a new generation of African leaders."
At IU, the Mandela Washington Fellows will be involved in a civic leadership track. They will be exposed to civic engagement concepts and leadership experiences and various models of how they function across the United States. They also will be provided with foundational knowledge about community building, economic development and volunteerism.
IU's effort brings together faculty, practitioners and resources from the Office of the Vice President for International Affairs and several schools: the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, the Kelley School of Business, the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, the School of Global and International Studies and the Maurer School of Law.
Other local partners will include Cook Medical Inc., Ivy Tech Community College, Sagamore Institute and many other local and community organizations.
"I congratulate Associate Vice President Alemneh, who only recently began work in my office," said David Zaret, IU vice president for international affairs. "Garnering this honor of hosting President Obama's flagship program for young African leaders is an impressive achievement that extends and enhances more than a half century of IU engagements in Africa."
People are invited to join the conversation on Twitter about the Young African Leaders Initiative using the hashtag #YALI2016.

Interest in deer season may be up this year
Don't be too surprised if you see more hunters out today than in recent years.
Minnesota's firearms deer-hunting opener is today, and Mark Cook, owner/manager of Bluewater Outdoors, said he would estimate that there are more hunters this year than in the past.
"I would say there is more interest," he said. "I've seen some (hunters) who haven't hunted in 20 years.
He attributed the increase to nice weather and a large deer herd.
John Wilson, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources' assistant regional wildlife manager in Bemidji, said the actual numbers of licenses sold for this area and number of area deer taken will not be available until after the season's end.
"(Friday) is the busiest license day there is," he said. "I think people are looking forward to a good season. There's a lot of excitement. It's going to be a beautiful week here -- lows in the mid-20s, highs in the mid-40s; just right for hanging deer."
Deer hunting helps to control the number of deer in Minnesota, Wilson said.
"We're very hopeful our deer population in the Bemidji area is in decline," he said.
The pre-fawn goal is 20 deer per square mile, he said. According to DNR modeling, the Bemidji area now carries about 26 per square mile. The deer herds peaked during 2003, Wilson said.
For Gander Mountain, one of the local big-game registration sites, the store stayed open until midnight yesterday to accommodate hunters needing last-minute supplies and licenses, said Keith Dahl, the assistant store manager.
"It started months ago," he said. "(Friday) is one of our busiest days of the year."
Of the hunters coming in, Dahl said he has seen a mix of local people seeking licenses and several from out of town, including a group from California.
"They come from all over the place," he said. "It's a big deal in northern Minnesota."

B2B procurement has not escaped the digital revolution—not by a long shot. But B2B suppliers have not caught up with B2B buyers' growing digital acumen.
This is according to the 2014 State of B2B Procurement Study conducted by Acquity Group, part of Accenture Interactive. The survey of 500 procurement officers with annual purchasing budgets of more than $100,000 uncovered how B2B buyers are searching, discovering and purchasing online.
The 2014 Acquity Group State of B2B Procurement study uncovered massive growth in online research and spending by B2B buyers across multiple devices. Study highlights include:
68% of B2B buyers now purchase goods online, up from 57% in the 2013 State of B2B Procurement study
The number of respondents who spent 90% or more of their budgets online in the last year doubled from 2013, increasing from 9 to 18%
44% of respondents have researched company products on a smartphone or tablet in the past year, compared with 41% in 2013
30% of B2B buyers report they research at least 90% of products online before purchasing, up from 22% in 2013
94% of B2B buyers report that they conduct some form of online research before purchasing a business product
55% of B2B buyers conduct online research for at least half of their corporate purchases
40% of buyers research more than half of goods under $10,000 online
Only 37 percent of B2B buyers who conduct research through a supplier's website feel it's the most helpful tool for research.
Buyers rely on a variety of online sources to make a purchase decision. The most popular sources include supplier websites, Google searches, user product reviews, blogs, social media and third-party websites such as Amazon Supply.
Online procurement spending is on the rise, creating new opportunities for suppliers
46% of respondents said their companies will increase online purchasing next year
68% of B2B buyers made online purchases in 2014 versus 57% in 2013
Procurement officers, especially in the millennial generation, are relying more on mobile and tablet devices to conduct research and purchase business goods. In fact, mobile purchasing and research habits generally diverge among the youngest and oldest generations of workers
55% of millennial workers ages 18-25 use mobile phones for procurement research, compared with 36 percent of respondents over the age of 45
Half of millennial B2B buyers use tablets to conduct research, while 31 percent of buyers over the age of 45 use tablets for product research
44% of respondents have researched an item for their company using a mobile device
For suppliers to fully capitalize on this growth, they must address several areas of their online experiences, including poor conversion rates. Sixty-nine percent of B2B buyers have abandoned an online shopping cart in the last year, for a variety of reasons:
37% found a lower priced product from another supplier
35% said the website page did not load properly
26% said checkout process took too long
22% said the checkout process was too confusing

'Living a lie for two years isn't easy' Sir Ian Botham opens up about his infidelities
HE'S known for his cricket playing as well as his turbulent private life, and Sir Ian Botham has finally decided to speak up about his mistakes.
The 58-year-old sportsman has admitted that living a lie for two years during his affair with Kylie Verrells "wasn't easy" and that coming clean to his wife Kath was one of the hardest things he's ever had to do.
Speaking during his appearance on 'Piers Morgan's Life Stories', Botham explained that he had to totally rebuild his life in order to save what means most to him.
In 2001, the press exposed Botham's affair with the waitress which he says "brought me back down to earth with a bump."
To this day, I still don't know why that period of time happened. At times you make big mistakes and that was a massive mistake. It nearly cost me everything that's so important to me.
"You suddenly realise what are the important things in life and at times you become very selfish," he told Morgan, adding: "I was very selfish in that period of time.
"To this day, I still don't know why that period of time happened. At times you make big mistakes and that was a massive mistake. It nearly cost me everything that's so important to me."
Botham's wife and their son Liam don't shy away from the fact that he made some huge mistakes, and during the show Morgan shows short interview extracts with them in which Kath is very honest.
"Ian would get on the phone and say, 'Hi, there's going to be something in the papers over the next few days' and my heart would just sink," she told the cameras.
Liam added: "I don't think he was a very good husband and I don't think he was a particularly great father."
Morgan then asked Botham the rather awkward question of why he thinks he had an affair in the first place, to which he replied: "I really don't know. I don't know why it started. I knew that I found it very difficult to get out of it. I'd pushed myself into a very awkward corner and there was only one way I could get out, by being honest, by confronting it and moving on.
"The children were hurt more than I realised and it suddenly woke me up," he added.
Botham added that it felt like a huge weight off of his shoulders when he had to sit Kath down and come clean to her.
"I had to sit down and tell her and I knew it would hurt her, but I actually felt so much relief, like, thank goodness I got that out," he explained. "There's no more hiding, no more running, there's no more lying. Now let's do something about it. Living a lie for two years is not easy.
"I had to repair the bridges that had been pulled down, flattened, so it was almost like re-starting the relationship."
However, nowadays the couple seemed to have moved past those dark times and are still happily married.
"I'm very happy. I think our relationship has got stronger over the years," Botham concluded. "There's been highs and massive lows, and highs again, mostly through my doing."
The full interview with Sir Ian Botham can be seen on 'Piers Morgan's Life Stories' on Friday February 14 at 9pm on ITV1.

I bought GTM21 to use with Nuvi 710 in thailand. The software install after connected GMT to Nuvi. I cannot make it work. In thailand TMC is free. I do not know how to subscribe it's. Please advice.

Go to car and connect to nuvi.
I bought GTM21 to use with Nuvi 710 in thailand. The software install after connected GMT to Nuvi. I cannot make it work. In thailand TMC is free. I do not know how to subscribe it's. Please advice.
My FID map is 2338 TSM 12.01
If it's free, then there is no need for subscription.
But in some areas the antenna comes with a pre-activation like in Taiwan
I have nuvi 765t also, and use it across europe (from scandinavia to southeast europe). i've been using this for several years and i have never crossed any kind of ads on my unit.
and "t" behind model number doesn't apply to lifetime ad-supported traffic subscription. it tells the user that exactly that model comes with traffic receiver unit (tmc).
get your gear right, before you come with the statements that are not true.
if you have problems with ads - change unit or provider.
"t" behind the model number actually stands for pre-installed TOPO map:
- Montana™ 650t
- Oregon� 550t
- Oregon� 450t
- GPSMAP� 62stc
- GPSMAP� 62st
"T" suffix stands for "Lifetime traffic included" (TMC - FM lifetime traffic, 3D Traffic or Digital 3D Traffic HD):
- n�vi� 1260T
- n�vi� 1390T
- n�vi� 1490T
- n�vi� 1350T
- n�vi� 3760T

Some examples with ads and TMC in North America:
I have a Zumo 660 with a GTM-10 that has an active TTN subscription that doesn't expire until 2013. Is it possible to unlock that to make it a lifetime subscription, and if so, how would I do it? I would then add a Navteq subscription using the instructions from this thread.
Hi all,
Thanks for the post! It's very helpful.
I just have a question though, I entered the code for Canberra, Australia and it now shows up at SUNA (AUS) on my device. It didn't specify for which region I entered it for. I then started to enter in a 2nd code for Sydney, Australia and it still only shows up the one SUNA (AUS) subscription. Question is, do I still need to enter in all the codes for each Australian state for it to work in all the Australian cities? Or is just entering the one code enough?
BTW: I have the GTM 36 with nuvi 3590.

Five games I've played this year:
1. Quelf. This game is nuts.
2. Imagine If... This one was a lot of fun, and there's no wrong answer. I love that in a game.
3. Apples to Apples. Love this one too. The answers are so funny, and we tend to play marathon games where we go through ALL the cards.
4. 500. In Peter's family, you need to know how to play this game. When I first joined the family 19 years ago, it was the only game they played together. I learned in self-defense.
5. Zoo Tycoon. I love playing this game with my daughter. We design zoos and try to beat the challenges.
There's one game I want to try with the family, Settlers of Cataan. I've heard good things and think it would suit my strategists very well. Have to look into acquiring it.

Proposed EHB Rule Draws Few Comments
The latest effort by the Department of Health and Human Services to establish requirements for essential health benefits drew fewer than 30 comments from interested parties during the proposed rule's 30-day comment period, which ended July 4.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act requires HHS to define EHBs. These are 10 categories of service that must be offered beginning in 2014 by health insurance exchanges, as well as individual and small group health insurance policies.
According to the proposed rule, HHS wants each state to use the small group market plan and product with the largest enrollment as the default benchmark plan if a state doesn't select its own benchmark plan.
It would tag two familiar organizations, the National Committee for Quality Assurance and the non-profit URAC, as the interim accrediting organizations for health plans that want to be part of the state health insurance exchanges. The NCQA and URAC are already responsible for most health plan accreditations.

After photos surfaced over the weekend of Mariah Carey looking as though she might be sporting a baby bump, husband Nick Cannon addressed the rumors on his radio show on Monday.
"I've said it before and I'll say it time and time again – when my wife feels like talking about whatever she wants to talk about, you will hear it directly from her," Nick told his guest Perez Hilton on New York's 92.3 FM.
"We all know it's extremely personal, and it is for a woman to deal with things with her body, and especially when dealing with the idea of childbirth and all that stuff," Nick continued.
"That's something you want to keep near and dear and as close to you as you possibly can, until you're 100% sure, in any situation," he explained. "There's a certain time limit you're supposed to wait before you can actually officially say that you are and all that stuff… you don't want to mislead anybody."
As for the couple's plan if and when their family were to expand, Nick said they would "strategically plan it out properly" and that they didn't want any "media hoopla."
In June when pregnancy rumors first swirled about Mariah, Nick Tweeted, "If & when my wife is ready to make ANY announcements about private matters she will do it personally."

Batman obsessive, book design guru, and author Chip Kidd will write a Batman story for DC Comics.
According to Paste, Kidd has written or co-written three books about the Dark Knight. In 2008, the book nerd published "Bat-Manga!: The Secret History of Batman in Japan," a loving tribute to wacky world of Batman comics in Japan during the 1960s–a technicolor Manga treatment of the all-American hero.
Here's more: "The news came via Twitter (where else?) from one of the audience members at the Chicago Tribune Printers Row Lit Fest, who witnessed Kidd's announcement and promptly spread the good news throughout the nerd world." (Via Afterword)
