Today I tried to upload some of my pictures by plugging the phone into my computer using the USB cable. When I drag down the notifications screen and click mount, it mounts as usual but when I refresh My Computer, the phone isn't being displayed. I have done this a few times before, but just now it doesn't seem to work. I've also tried resetting the phone and it still won't show up in My Computer. Anyone know what's wrong here?

What happens if you just leave it a minute or two? I never had to refresh anything for it to show

Did you install an update for an Android interface in windows? I did, and had the same problem as you.Unplug Hero, Uninstall the driver, plug Hero in, and when Windows tries to install via Windows update (ADP driver or something) hit cancel and install My HTC Hero manually. Also, hit menu, settings, applications, developement and enable USB debugging.
