I had recordings on the Tablo internal storage. Storage capacity was getting full so I decided to add an external USB drive of 64gb. It formatted fine but I just discovered that all my recordings that were previously stored on my Tablo are gone. And the only storage I see in the settings is the external USB drive. I do t even see the Tablo drive capacity anymore. Is there any way to retrieve my previous recordings? Is this a bug and if it is please fix it. Thanks.

NOTE - As the 4th generation Tablo device has a different type of recording format and database, you cannot move existing recordings or recording schedules from legacy network-connected or TV-conne...

THIS HAPPENED AFTER I NOTICED THAT MY 4GB USB DEVICE HAD AN ERROR BECAUSE OF THE NEW FW UPDATE THAT REQUIRED 16GB MINIMUM. I SUCCESSFULLY REMOVED THE 4 GB DEVICE AND ADDED THE 16GB DEVICE. NOW THE DEVICE SHOWS READY AND 14.8GB. MY PHONE AND TAB3 DO NOT SHOW ANY DEVICE CONNECTED TO THE USB PORT, ONLY THE DESKTOP APP SHOWS CORRECTLY. IS THIS A FIRMWARE ISSUE? I REINSTALLED THE ARLO APP ON MY TAB3 AND IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM.

Sorry about that. Didn't realize I was doing that. Thought that if support saw other people with a similar problem as that one that they would know that there is something going on. Will post as a new problem. Thanks...........

As of this morning my Android phone and Samsung Tab3 still show no USB stick installed with a yellow message that says "INSERT A USB FLASH DRIVE INTO YOUR BASE STATION TO START STORING RECORDED CLIPS LOCALLY". From my desktop it shows USB READY. I ejected the USB stick and there are recordings on it from the base station. Reinstalled the USB stick and it shows ready from my desktop app only. There seems to be something wrong with the Android App on the phone and the Samsung TAB3. I deleted the ARLO App from my phone and reinstalled the app. It still shows the USB stick not installed. The USB stick is a 16gb stick that shows 14.6gb and was formatted on my desktop as FAT32.

Android app shows no USB (though it did report an incorrect removal when I yanked it). Web interface @ my.arlo shows it normally. When I checked the contents on a PC, it does appear to be working normally...I have recordings from as recently as this morning.

Today I removed the USB flash drive from the back of my Base Station to look at some recorded videos, but I have discovered that the last video recorded was dated 15th May 2020, nothing has been recorded during the past week.

I then put the USB flash drive back into the Base Station, opened the Android Arlo App, and checked the Local Storage settings. It is showing a message saying there is no USB device connected. I then removed the USB flash drive, used compressed air to clean out any dust, put the USB flash drive back into the USB port, checked the Android Arlo App, still showing no USB device connected. Tried second USB port at back of Base Station, but Android Arlo App still showing no USB device connected.

I then logged into the my.arlo.com website, checked the Local Storage settings, and it is showing the USB flash drive connected, along with the correct size and is reported as "Ready". Then went outside to activate motion sensor in camera to record some video. Then selected "Safely Eject USB Device" and removed USB flash drive and put it in my laptop to view the video, there is still no recording since 15th May 2020.

There is nothing wrong the USB flash drive, it works perfectly fine in my laptop, I can view recordings going back to October last year, and it is a 16GB Sandisk Ultra Fit 3.1 USB flash drive which I have used for over a year and is a well known brand.

It seems the Base Station is still recording video files after May 15th. After looking at the files in several folders a bit more (it had several hundred videos), I realised the filename contains a random number that can mess up the order of the files listed. The files are named in the following format:

However, I am still having a problem with the Arlo Android App not recognising the USB flash drive in the Base Station. The my.arlo.com website shows the USB flash drive is there, but the Android App shows there is no USB flash drive connected under Settings and Local Storage.

For personalized support specific to the Arlo products you own, access Support from within the Arlo iOS or Android App. Simply login to your Arlo App, go to Settings, Support, then select the Arlo product you would like support for.

Lightning as seen from the Geostationary Lightning Mapper on NOAA's GOES-16 satellite from April 29, 2020. One of the lightning flashes within this thunderstorm complex was found by the World Meteorological Organization to be the longest flash on record that covered a horizontal distance of 477 miles.

I have recorded several conferences and was going to transfer them to a disk when I saw that most of them had disappeared from the memory. I know they were there because I listened to them after recording and I also am dead sure I did not delete them. I tried both Recuva and Rescue Pro but both programs fail to see the connected Sansa Fuze even though I see it on both Media Player and Computer. I must recover these files! What should I do next?

That will make the Fuze look like a flash drive to your computer, and show different folders from the MTP connection (which is where Auto goes since you have Windows Media Player). You computer can only see one mode at a time.

Where did it go? I saw it, as I chose it to move. I put both the clip+ as well as the SDcard through file restore and nothing. This was an important document and I do not understand how it could disappear

Also, if the file was somehow corrupted, it could be on there unrecognized, since the display will only show the file types it knows. Have you connected in both MTP and MSC mode (Settings/System Settings/USB) and looked for files from the date of the recording?

Transfering data directly from flash memory to flash memory is not a good idea, and often causes problems. You should copy the data to your pc hard drive, then copy it from there to the other flash memory. The player is also likely to not be able to access the internal flash memory and the card memory of the player at the same time.

Hi, Recently I have tried data recovery software of Stellar Phoenix to recover my lost Word documents and Audio clips. It worked great for me. You can also try your luck with this data recovery software. Thanks!!

Most cameras won't use the flash unless you are taking a still shot during the recording. If you want to use the flash as a light source for the video, keep in mind that they are not designed to give continuous light, only the brief flash. You would need to use a different lighting source for that.

I have ISO-image as Windows 10, Ubuntu 14.04, and a flash drive 8Gb. How to burn a bootable USB flash drive for installation? I need a simple utility, where i choose the ISO file and USB flash drive, and nothing more ..)

I have just bought new Q95T and have connected my Samsung DVR but am unable to us the scheduler on the TV to record to the DVR or see the previous recorded programs - The TV schedule software is also different so have decided to buy a USB device to plug into the one connect box.

I have a Samsung UE50 and it refused to record to a 125gb 2.0 flash drive - got various error messages including 'drive too slow' and 'drive disconnected'. I purchased a 128gb 3.0 flash drive with good read/write speed and that worked fine after the tv formatted the drive

I've been trying to figure out a way to save both audio and MIDI recordings of a song directly to a flash drive using my Casio PX S1100 piano. I've gone through the manual and scoured various forums for a solution but haven't found a clear answer yet. Is there a technical possibility to save recordings in both formats simultaneously, or perhaps through some workaround? Any guidance on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated as I'm at my wits' end with this issue.

To export a MIDI recording to the flash drive, you'll need to use the media save function. Two file formats are available. SMF type is a standard MIDI file. Casio MRF format is the other type, only compatible with the keyboard itself. You'll find a detailed procedure in the user manual for saving MIDI recordings to USB. If you get stuck, feel free to ask more questions.

Do I have to choose between audio and MIDI, or can I save a recorded song in both formats on a USB drive? I've figured out the audio recording, but I'm struggling to save MIDI. I don't understand the steps involved.

Another thing I am noticing, my second floodlight does not display the siren icon. So, when my neighbors are on my property, I am unable to turn it on. One of Wyze biggest sales pitch was the use of their siren.

All Firmware Version Numbers in Blue are hyperlinks to download the zipped firmware. This is limited to only devices that have an SD Card and Flash capability. Not all prior versions are available. If there is a version that is unavailable there, you can ask here in the forum if another user has saved it. Only Production Firmware is listed. Beta Firmware is not available for download or flash.

That is a question Wyze would have to answer. The issue would also need to be isolated either as a bug within the firmware for the specific cam affected or within the App software as it relates to that cam and which OS version is affected. Since both Firmware and App Software are in constant development, the best place to isolate the behavior is in the newest Beta or Production Release.
