(HELP) N900 not recogonized in Computer :(
 

whenever i connected my N900 to my computer it asks for Mass storage mode & PC suite mode , and when i connect it with Mass storage mode it keep on saying " Unable to connect via USB , Device storage is in use "

I tried to connect with 3 computer and got the same result but the phone is getting charging when the USB is plugged in...

Plz tell me how to solve this without flashing

use Winscp to connect it via wifi.
it's safe , easy and fast .

are you currently running any applications which use the MyDocs-memory?
for example the music player-widget?
Could be that the media-player tracker is running. wait for a while and try again.
You can check whether or not something is using MyDocs by opening X-terminal and entering:

If this outputs anything your MyDocs is in use.
Enjoy! and good luck :)

Happened to me once, that time i remember i had kept the usb cable plugged in the comp and had restarted the machine. It worked ! .. but then if i unplugged and replugged i used to get the same error..

Try rebooting ur pc with the cable plugged in !

And while your at it, reboot the phone too. Btw, did you know that that command i gave you is case-sensitive?

Re: (HELP) N900 not recogonized in Computer :(
 

i gave the command tht u type over there and no output.....

Re: (HELP) N900 not recogonized in Computer :(
 

if it isnt that your MyDocs is in use, i cant think of something else... sorry.
Have you tried rebooting everything? Is the only easy step i can come up with ... But you probably allready did that...
Good luck anyway..

Did you ever find out what caused this problem?

Re: (HELP) N900 not recogonized in Computer :(
 

You can force the file system to unmount before plugging in the USB, that will make sure it's free for the remounter. To do that, in an xterm on the device, type:
If unmount complains, then the lsof command XiliX posted above will show you what's using it. If not, you can then plug in the USB and it will connect to the host computer. You may want to do a disk check once you mount it on the computer, since file system corruption can cause this odd behavior sometimes.
