Can't transfer files via USB? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I am currently running Win8 and can not copy any files from my computer to phone via USB. The file transfer starts, but then fails at some point through it. Any ideas why? i think i could have something to do with win8...
EDIT: changed USB cables and reinstalled drivers and it worked... weird

NEXUS S bricked? Can't be detected on PC

Hi everyone,
I have a Nexus S i9020T that I think I have bricked. What I did is that I was trying to flash a ROM and by mistake I formatted the SD, and USB storage. And since then when I reboot, I only see the GOOGLE sign with a blue bar underneath. I have the clockworkmod working for me but I can't mount my USB storage or SD card to copy any files from computer because the computer does not detect it. I installed ADB properly, and I had PDAnet installed as well. but for some reason when I try to open PDAnet, it gives me errors and asks for reinstallations as there are files that are in conflict or something. and now I have a device that can't be detected on computer but can be rebooted in to recovery. I will be grateful if one of you guys helped me out with this.
here are drivers maybe different than what you have

It might be your cable but I normally activate htc sync through my phone, wait for my pc to pull it up then just close it and select disk drive on my phone and my sdcard normally comes up.

Computer recognize phone

I just joined the beta program to be able to jump right into 8.0 yesterday. Now my computer at home will not recognize the phone. I can connect it to my laptop or work computer and be able to transfer files without any issue. Prior to this upgrade, I was able to transfer files to the home computer without any issue. I have tried reinstalling the drivers, but no such luck. Any advice??

Mount CD Drive

When I first connected my phone on my laptop, it has a CD Drive as well.
I accidentally safely removed it from the Windows system tray (from the icon of connected USB devices).
How can I get the contents of the CD Drive from the Nokia 8 phone or is there a way to mount the CD Drive again when I connect my phone?
Reconnecting the phone doesn't seem to make the CD Drive contents be mounted again.
All it contains are the drivers that windows needs to install for it to be able to connect to your phone. It autoruns when you connect the phone to install the required drivers. It's nothing you need worry about.

Is there a way to make it work again?
If you just did the safely remove drive before I plugging the phone it should have just appeared again when the phone was connected again. Have you mounted the phone for file transfer? When you plug it into your pc when you unlock the phone a question should appear asking if you want to mount it for file transfer. Does the drive appear when you do this?
If it doesn't you may have to go into disk management and re-assign a drive letter to it again.

I was not prompted with that autoplay setting when I tried to replug it. I will try the re-assigning drive letter solution.
