Have you tried a different computer or perhaps just a different USB port?
If it still doesn't work you can try using some form of wifi access to send files between your computer and prime. ES Files Explorer can see most windows shared drives.

Try a different USB port on your computer and try rebooting the PC. Otherwise you can try uninstalling the drivers from device manager.

Did all that but still doesn't work
Btw im running windows 7 ultimate 64 bit
Using windows security essentials if any of that help

Hmm...I'm not sure to be honest. I've only plugged mine into a computer once just to root it. I didn't even check to see if I could access it's memory. I have Win7 x64 home premium. You can try the thread in Dev about drivers and see if those will install.

I run windows 7 64 and when plugged into the USB port, I open the "Computer" windows explorer window, and my prime is listed at the bottom under "Other" I believe.
However I did have a problem when I first got it, but it wasn't from the prime. I had had trouble a while with my iphone connecting to USB and not opening my photos because of an MTP driver. Had a similar problem when I got my prime, googled it and found a solution on how to fix it for people with other USB devices, and I tried it, and my prime showed up and I decided to check my iphone and the only other USB device I had trouble with, and all of my device to USB problems were solved by fixing that MTP error message.

Try this:
With the prime connected to the PC usb, in Win7 goto control panel, administrator tools, computer management, drive manager. This will show all disk drives and their drive letters. The prime should be there but it might be conflicting with one of your other drive letters, change the primes drive letter to z and try to access z drive with file manager. Good luck.

No guarantees, but have you tried downloading the android sdk and choosing to install the usb drivers?

On this one i think i installed all them the issue here is that when i plug my phone it let me know that new hardware has been found then it starts with the installation some will install but i think there is one or two the just sit searching but nothing happens and then i try to closed out but it freezes up on me and when i turn off debugging then it closes out but if i try to install them with debugging off nothing comes up.
another thing i used my phone with acomputer runnig windows 7 and it worked so im guessing its a prblem with xp
I think pdanet has the drivers when you install it if you don't know how to manually add them.

I don't know if this will work for you, but it worked for me...
When you plug your phone in via a usb cable, you will see a Verizon Mobile drive pop up on under "My Computer"
If you open it, there is a folder in there called DRV. There is a file called something like WM_driver installer. I installed that.
Then I go to my phone chose to connect as a disk drive (I have mine set to charge only by default).
Then I click on my removable disk and I can see my phone's data then.

Connecting to computer

How do u connect it to computer? I tried connecting it to the dock and the tablet nothing comes up in windows. I installed the asus pc suite and sync.
PC sync never worked for me even on my original tf! Never got it to work!
what I do is copy to an SD and then to the prime. But yeah same. Sync doesn't work even to the internal storage. I dont get it lol
It says to use an updated windows 7,mine well, "isn't" updated. Almost beta. What are you using?
When i connect my Prime via the usb cable a message pops up and i can access the internal storage and transfer files without any extra software.
I use win 7 x64 professional with all the latest patches, but no microsoft media player (read somewhere that you need it on win XP because of some missing protocol) and the 64gb version of the transformer with the ota update installed.
Make sure that you have the USB drivers from the Asus website. They are not included with the suite. They are on the same support page though.
I was only able to connect & transfer files to my Prime by doing a factory reset.In the process I lost the stock pictures that come with it.However this allowed me to transfer files after doing the reset.

Same here. Shows up as an mtp device in explorer and I can address internal and SD storage.
Try the drivers from Asus as suggested, especially if you have automatic updates disabled in windows for some rediculous reason.
TF201 / XDA premium
what do u do with those drivers? It wasnt an exe so i didnt know what to do with them.
Are u connecting with the wire that it comes with the prime or the usb input on dock? Im using the wire that it came with, that should be able to connect right.

that's the only way to connect it, the usb port on the dock will not let you connect to a PC.
I dont know how to get it to work then ive connected it in every input and it doesnt do anything
If it's simply for transferring data between the PC and the Tablet try using ES File Explorer.
I have it installed on all my Tablets & Phones. I've never connected any of them to my Laptops via USB. I simply use ES File Explorer. Job done.

How to copy files from PC to S3?

I´m new to this Mtp thing. I had a HOX until now and that was a breeze there.
So how is everybody copying files (non-media files) to sd-card pr ext-sd-card?
thx, nearly
Bro I just plugged my phone into my PC and my PC download the drivers needed.. recognized phone and bam. Go into computer and find your device. If you double click on it it should bring up your SD card.. From there I just drag and drop files.

Just like a USB stick. I connect to PC and it pops up. Maybe because I.have development option ticked but don't think it's that. Just download the latest version of kies for the drivers.

Really sucks...
Can't use the phone while transferring large files
What about connecting the phone to a PS3, does that work?
i cant remember the last time i connected a phone to a computer for file transfers.
get samba share from the market or use es file explorer to transfer files to network shares on the pc.
LOL WIRES.
MTP/Kies really suck. My main pc is running Linux so that's a no-go with MTP. I installed Kies on my work pc as it runs Win 7. All SGS 3 drivers are installed as well. For the first few days it was working but now the phone isn't recognised anymore. Either the phone does not show at all on the pc, or it shows but the internal and external SD cards are not showing.
Saw on Samsung's website that there's a Kies version for Mac available so I installed that on my wife's macbook pro. When plugging the phone in the "connecting" message keeps running but the phone never connects. I thought it was because I'm not using the original USB cable, but using that won't work either.
So looking forward to a custom rom that has USB mass storage included. Until then I'm using the WiFi File Transfer Pro and/or Samba Sharing apps.
You can also install Kies Air from the play store on your phone. You won't have to install anything on your PC.
Just make sure you are on the same network as your PC and run the app.
It will start a server and the URL will be displayed on your device.

How can I copy file to /data directory?
I use Cyberduck on my Mac to connect to the SGS III by SSH, I have an app called SSHDroidPro on my phone. So easy to use. I can browse the entire filesystem of the phone wirelessly and file transfer is pretty fast and totally painless. MUCH better than Kies Air IMO.

Samsung Galaxy S3 not recognized (with drivers)

I have installed Samsung USB Drivers manually and also tried Kies to install the newest drivers, but my Samsung Galaxy S3 still isn't recognized by my computer. What can I do?
EDIT: It only works sometimes, so when I plug it out and in like 10 times, maybe I'm lucky and it will connect once.

I have the same problem. My VSGS3 works with my W8 laptop but not my W7 desktop (at all). The only thing I can assume that it would be is MTP issues with Truecrypt (my desktop is encrypted). I cannot get it to work at all.
take a look at this thread...

Really???? S3 Not Recognized?
Maybe I missed something in this thread but is this really the case??? The S3 cannot be recognized as a USB storage device by Windows? I accidentally left my SD card out and now have videos I need to transfer to PC, but cannot via email or any other means I can find. Anybody have a solution? I have installed the Samsung drivers but still not recognized . . . HELP!!!

You can use MTP mode to copy the files to the computer.
The device will appear with a phone-logo in 'My Computer'
Just plug Samsung USB cable into USB port on a PC with the Samsung USB drivers installed and cut and paste as many GB as you want .SD Phone or EXT SD card via Windows Explorer as normal .

This problem is quite depressing Has a restore fixed it for anyone?
I use mac OSX and after searching for a month or so, I couldnt find a solution to connect via USB. So now I use 'Air Droid' app from Play Store. Its pretty good and simple!! Plus, you can do alot more stuff like send or read SMS from PC.. Dont need to connect via USB anymore
I found that installing that rootkit installed the drivers to connect via USB - didnt root it just installed it for the drivers. THANKS!
I am having the same problem.
My Galaxy S3 charges when connected to computer via USB.
But is not detected in USB Debugging or regular mode.

You must know what windows you use, 32 bit or 64 bit? Download Kies through Samsung website, make sure got right software.

If you are using x64 Windows 7 this will EXE file can be found here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung\Kies\USB Driver\SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe
back this up and then you can remove KIES. This is all you need to have your phone connected without ever really needing KIES.
Or you can use the driver provided by the TOOLKIT that MSKIP has designed (thanks - love it).
