I've tried all the basic troubleshooting, but for some reason I can't get my computer/DoubleTwist to recognize my phone. I can't find the wifi number to input, I can't get DoubleTwist to do anything.
DoubleTwist sounds like a great program, but if it doesn't work for me, I'm going to have to use a different service.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4g Touch. I have a Lenovo PC running Windows 7. I am attempting to connect through USB. My phone displays as charging, so there is a connection. I have tried different USB ports.

1Hello,
Can you verify that the phone is properly mounted as a USB device on your computer?
From the home screen, go to Menu > Settings > Applications and then enable USB Debugging. Return to the home screen.
Connect your phone to your computer via the USB cable.
Pull down the status/notification bar (aka "window shade) and tap on "Connect USB storage".
The phone should now appear on your desktop and be assigned a drive letter. Once it's in that mode, you can launch the doubleTwist desktop application and it should see your Android device and be able to sync with it.
You can also try using the "Auto USB drive" option in doubleTwist Settings if you can not enable the USB Mass Storage option on your device.
Thanks,
Henry -

I am having the same problem with my MacBook and I was wondering if you could help me too? My laptop recently crashed and it won't recognize my phone at all and I still have all of my photos, pictures, etc. on my phone. However, I was wondering is there a way to go backwards and transfer everything from my phone to my laptop? Thanks!

Sorry to keep bothering you. To answer your question no I do not have an inter SD card in my phone. When I connect my phone my laptop doesn't recognize that anything is there and all my phone does is charge.

Hello,
Please try these steps.
Here's how to set the S2 (GB) to USB Mass Storage mode.
1. From the home screen, go to Menu > Settings > Applications and then enable USB Debugging.
2. Return to the home screen.
3. Connect your phone to your computer via the USB cable.
4. Pull down the status/notification bar (aka "window shade") and tap on "Connect USB storage".
This sets your Android device to look like a USB drive so it appears on your desktop. Once it's in that mode, you can launch the doubleTwist desktop application and it should see your Android device and be able to sync with it.
Thanks,

My only complaint at this point is how insidious the Snap.do add on is. Changes all your home pages on all your browsers. Also, adding Snap.do should be an "option" not the standard when installing.

Hello,

We are always evaluating the OpenCandy suggested apps so I will forward your comments to the product manager for consideration.

Hi, I'm using the HTC One V and having exactly the same problem. Have turned my device into a mass storage device, and can find it through my computer, but is not showing up at all in DoubleTwist. I do have an SD card plugged into it. Neither shows up. Please advise.

Hello,
Unfortunately, the D710 running ICS only has USB MTP mode, which doubleTwist was not designed for as it expects USB Mass Storage (MSC) mode.
We are currently working on adding support for USB MTP support to doubleTwist. We hope to have a beta version of doubleTwist for Windows with MTP support for certain devices available within the next couple of months.
In the meantime, you can use AirSync to sync with USB MTP only devices such as the Galaxy S3 and Android tablets.
Here are some quickstart guides to AirSync.

Thanks, but I don't think I'll spend $5 just to sync over the air. Especially, when their is an app to do that for free.

I have a Motorola Atrix HD from AT&T. I'm not getting the phone to be recognized by my computer also. I have switched the phone to USB Mass Storage. I have also downloaded doubleTwist on both the phone and computer. When I plug the USB cable my computer assigns a letter drive (but does not list my phone as the device). DoubleTwist doesn't recognize the phone at all? Can you please give me some help?
Thank you

Hello Brandon,
Some users have run into issues with bad fonts or a VPN encryption. We can analyze your application log for further details.
Please run the doubleTwist computer app in debug mode to send us a debug package. To do this, please hold down SHIFT and open the application. A new menu, Debug, should now appear next to the Help menu. Please make sure that the "Log Sync progress" option in the Debug menu is enabled.
Wait one minute for the startup scan to complete. Make sure your Atrix HD is connected, got assigned a drive letter, and you can see the contents of the device from Windows.
Then select "Send Log..." from the Debug menu and please include your email and the URL of this support topic in the "Additional Information:" field.

You have to use Double Twist Air for the s3 phones - it's wireless.

my droid razr m is doing the same thing and it has a usb mass storage device choice
-
Hello,
Is your Razr M being seen by your PC as a USB disk drive?
1. Razr M is being assigned a drive letter
2. Contents of the Razr M can be browsed from your PC
If both are true and doubleTwist still isn't see the device, please run the doubleTwist computer app in debug mode to send us a debug package. To do this, please hold down SHIFT and open the application. A new menu, Debug, should now appear next to the Help menu. Please make sure that the "Log Sync progress" option in the Debug menu is enabled.

Hello,
Are you using Android 4.1 (Jellybean) on your Razr? We've had reports that Motorola removed USB Mass Storage mode from the Razr after the 4.1 update, leaving only USB MTP mode, which the Mac does not recognize without additional software. In addition, doubleTwist was not designed for USB MTP as it expects USB Mass Storage (MSC) mode.
We are working on adding USB MTP support to doubleTwist for OSX but it will take some time because the Mac does not have native USB MTP support.
In the meantime, you can use AirSync to sync with USB MTP only devices such as the Galaxy S3 and Android tablets.
Here is a quick start guide to AirSync on the Mac:

I have been using DoubleTwist with no problem for ages. Now my phone (Droid Infuse) doesn't show up when it is connected to the USB with Mass Storage enabled! I just bought the air sync but it wont work. Since my device doesn't show up I right click the 'device' section and press add airsync device. It just keeps loading and loading. I have it enabled on my phone and I have the code ready. It just wont work. What do I do?
-
Hello,
When you connect your Infuse to your PC,
1. Does your PC assign the Infuse a drive letter? (Or letters if both storage locations appear.)
2. Are you able to browse the contents of your Infuse from the PC?
Also, if you look inside the .doubleTwist folders, do you see any "hiddenVolume" files inside either storage location?
As for AirSync, have you try these AirSync troubleshooting steps?
http://www.doubletwist.com/help/quest...
Step #3 (disable, enable AirSync) resolves the issue for many users.
Rebooting all of the devices in the network has also been successful for users. Other users have also reported a full reset of doubleTwist Player has worked for them.

Hello. I have been having similar problems to the users above, especially Austin Shalit. I have a Droid Razr and have been using DoubleTwist for quite some time. Unfortunately, I have been unable to get my device to be recognized by the DoubleTwist program. I have mass storage on and I have an SD card as well. My device and sd card are both assigned drive letters, but will simply not show up on the DoubleTwist program. I have tried to manually add the device by using the device IP, but no luck there either.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.-
Hello,
If your device is being assigned drive letters and you are able to access them from your PC when connected but it isn't appearing in doubleTwist, your system might have a corrupt font.
The other possibility is that the "hiddenVolume" file was incorrectly written to both storage locations. Please check the ".doubleTwist" folders to verify that only one of the folders has a "hiddenVolume" folder. If both of them do, please disconnect your device and perform a full reset of doubleTwist Player.
http://www.doubletwist.com/help/quest...
If only one of the folders has a "hiddenVolume" file, we will have to analyze your application logs.
Please run the doubleTwist computer app in debug mode to send us a debug package. To do this, please hold down SHIFT and open the application. A new menu, Debug, should now appear next to the Help menu. Please make sure that the "Log Sync progress" option in the Debug menu is enabled.

Thank you! I found my problem was that I had two "hiddenVolume" files in my .doubletwist folders. I greatly appreciate the help!
