    You can do a couple of different things, change ports, if that doesnt help, you will probably have to uninstall the programme you were using and reinstall it, sometimes these things happen for no reason, if neither of those things work, try system restore to the day before it happened, hope this helps, goodluck! :)

    You might need to reinstall the software for your phone. Either that or try the phone data cable in a different USB port. The phone isn't being recognised for some reason, so I would suggest doing one or the other of the above suggestions. If you have any problems, feel free to give me a shout.
