first format the USB in NTFS. just use fidisk-l to check wether if it is showing in the device list WITH NTFS file system. Remember the device name and mount the device using command sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt //assuming sda2 is NTFS formatted USB device.



edit: I recommend you to format the USB device as ntfs for it makes easy on a linux system to check the ntfs device and figure out what it is.

Does that particular USB port work when other devices are plugged in? It is possible that that USB hub on your machine isn't working under Ubuntu. It should always recognize that there is a device being plugged in -- do dmesg |grep /dev and see what the last device comes out to be.



As a test, plug a mouse into that USB port and see if it is working as expected (watch "dmesg | tail", CTRL+C to break out)



Another possibility is that, the device requires more power than the port can provide, but whatever the case, try another USB port on your machine and see if the behavior continues.

idea behind it is simple. I just want to check if the usb is plugged in. If it does, then mounting it may solve the problem. Other wise you can check further for answer. Whats the output of sudo fdisk -l ?

Does that particular USB port work when other devices are plugged in? It is possible that that USB hub on your machine isn't working under Ubuntu. It should always recognize that there is a device being plugged in -- do dmesg |grep /dev and see what the last device comes out to be.



As a test, plug a mouse into that USB port and see if it is working as expected (watch "dmesg | tail", CTRL+C to break out)



Another possibility is that, the device requires more power than the port can provide, but whatever the case, try another USB port on your machine and see if the behavior continues.

  • Hi, I'm not sure I understand- are you talking about Mac OSX? You cannot format a device to NTFS format using a Mac that I was aware of.

  • Well if you have the option of NTFS what happens next with a new name: Windows NT compression or something.
