Hey everyone,
I am having a problem that I could really use some help on. I plugged my phone into my laptop to charge, which I normally do. While it was charging, I decided to take a look at some files I had saved on the phone/microSD.

However, when I went to the notification bar to change the USB connection setting, there was nothing there to change! I even went into Settings>Connect to PC and changed the setting to "Disk Drive", exited settings, unplugged the phone, and replugged it in...still nothing.

The phone IS charging, but the computer doesn't recognize it. I even uninstalled the driver, hoping it would force the driver to be reinstalled by plugging the phone in again...but still nothing.

Please help! Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: Yes, I tried different USB ports! Sorry for not mentioning that earlier....

 

Oddly enough, I tried this several times last night...that did the trick today though! Thanks to everyone for offering their help!
