yes i have im not sure as to why my phone is doing that

I have the same problem. Tried everything in Win 7 32bit both drivers... the one in samsung page and the first one before those... CANT get the captivate recognized by my PC. I tried with at win xp and it works... ANY HELP?

It might be the USB cable. Is it connected directly or through a hub? You might also try plugging it into different port.

i have windows 7 64 bit and here is what i did
1. go to Settings>Application>Development and turn usb debugging on.
2. After you connect it to the comp pull down our notifications menu and select USB connected. It will ask you if you want mount select yes and then go to my computer and it should be there.

If you have kies installed you shouldn't have any driver issue since installing that software properly is best way to insure you have the proper drivers installed. Try uninstalling Kies and installing it again with just the mobile box ticked it should work. I am also running Win7 32bit and use Kies without a problem.

Bluetooth Drivers

I have Windows 7x32, and it can't find the bluetooth drivers for my phone. Anyone have a download link for the bluetooth drivers? My phone finds my pc, but my pc doesn't give me a popup or anything and in device manager, I have a periphrial (which is my phone) that doesn't install because windows can't find the drivers.

There are links to download the drivers in the Bible posted in the dev forum.
You. Will. Obey. XDA Premium App

I've looked for the bluetooth drivers and still can't find them. Seems like everybody has linked to the USB drivers... found them, tried the install and still failed. Any help?

Is your phone discoverable? you have to manually check the box

Ofcourse you can Mate.
Here below is the link to dowload the Samsung USB drivers. It works with our SGR too. Just Download and Use them.
LINK
Remember to turn on USB Debugging on your Phone. So the next time you connect you can choose the option to mount it as Disk Storage

it says destination not found when i click on the removable disk icon :/

Hmmm. When you connect USB what does it says on Phone? USB connected or MTP connected?
Did you installed the mentioned drivers?
After connecting phone check in Windows device manager if there is any 'Unknown Device' - connected.

Finally!!
okay all i did is tricked my system into thinking that i am using sp 3...there is a small tweak you have to run in regedit. i guess the problem is with sp2. now it is recognizing and kies is installing as well.

M on official tmous 4.1.1 unlocked bootloader rooted , pc running on win7 64 bit p.s. i could copy earlier ...but nw can't even copy a 1kb file

Try qtadb or Android commander software
from HTC One

Try a different cable?

Or a different usb port if you have a 3.0 usb...try a 2.0 usb instead. Also you might consider updating to latest HTC software/drivers if you didn't do that already. Check if it's working on another pc with the same cable...if it does, it's not the cable, it's the pc or HTC software or drivers
Just forgot...you said you're on stock ROM. That has an option specifying how phone connects to the pc via USB...it's in HTC Sync mode right?

Nash...it automatically connects to Usb Debugging and MPT...and it doesn't have any other optionthn mobile network sharing

Are you still able to view the SD card VIA file explorer ?
If you can view your card from the phone then you may have a bad cable or a bent pin
Is your phone still taking a charge ? if not you may have a bad port on the phone
I would try a different cable and or switch USB ports

I had the same issue and it was due to a bent pin on my cable as mentioned above.
I was transferring files with WiFi File Explorer until I bought a new cable.

I can copy from my Mobi to Pc easily...the only thing i can't do is to copy from Pc to Mobi.....
