What OS on the laptop?
Are you using the OEM battery USB cable?
I'm running W7 and used the USB cable that comes off the charger and it detected fine. Do a shutdown/restart on the laptop and the same on the N7.
If it's a mac you need a specific download for it. Look through the nexus 7 manual in Google books for what you need.

I might be wrong, but I don't think Windows XP supports the MTP protocol that the Nexus 7 uses (no more Mass Storage Driver).
I think you might be able to get XP to see your Nexus by downloading the software package referenced at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=19153
If you haven't already found a fix, a simple restart of my computer always fixes it for me. My galaxy nexus, transformer prime, and nexus 7 all have had this happen for me and I just reboot to fix it

you coudl also change the nexus from mtp to ptp..
MTP on window XP-SP3
For window XP check your Window Media Player version. If it's version 9 or older, MTP is NOT supported.
You can update Window Media Player to version 11 (some say that 10 would do it too, but I tried 11 and
it worked for me). This will enable winXP-SP3 to support MTP. This download is available directly from
MS or on Cnet.
Good luck
Thank you will test now will report back later

It worked for me. After I installed WMP 11, my N7 showed up in My Computer and I could drag/drop files to/from it.
I used the download from CNET at
http://download.cnet.com/windows-media-player/?tag=contentMain;contentBody;1d
You may also have a "stale" already installed USB driver for the N7 that was not correct in
which case you'll have to muck with the "Device Manager" (Control Panel->Sys->Hardware->DeviceManager)
to remove or update the driver for the N7. Make sure you know which driver is the N7, you don't want to remove
drivers for other devices that are working for you.
Good luck

Hey guys i have queston i have a nexus 4 for a couple months now and i just got a nexus 7 and when i plugged it in my little brother pulled it out when windows was installing it by itself now ive got adb but no acess to internal storage
Windows 8 build
n4 on custom 4.2.2
n7 on 4.4 stock
uninstall al nexus/adb/google/fastboot/mako(also delete them) related drivers.turn off driver signature verification(google it),restart pc and install universal naked drivers
install usb driver from android sdk website http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html or you just can update via SDK Manager if you have it. Then go to Device Manager on your pc, search for ADB interface or any yellow sign (caution),and search for update by using the downloaded file. Hope this help

Hi all,
I bought a Nexus 10 recently and updated it to kitkat 4.42. I wanted to root it, so I downloaded the latest NRT and proceeded to follow the instructions. This started out with uninstall previous drivers, lunching USBDeview and uninstalling everything related to the Android.
BUT, when I plug my nexus 10 into my PC with windows 7, I get the message, driver installation unsuccessful. It doesn't show up as storage either. However, it does charge and it does say"connected as media device" on the nexus. I tried switching from MTP to PTP and back, but no go.
So I plugged it into my windows 8 laptop and it DOES appear as storage on it and works fine. It makes it sound like its an issue with my PC or windows 7.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm only on my laptop when I work so its quite annoying to have to only transfer files from there.
Thanks in advance!
Download the android sdk. This contains thr drivers. Then install the drivers manually.

Hello I tried using the USB Tethering option on my Nexus to tether it to my Windows XP PC since it doesnt have a WiFi Adapter. I installed the RNDIS Module Driver by using the tetherxp.inf file from Google's Support Page. Since it didnt work I had to look up what I had to do and many said that I have edit the tetherxp.inf device id to match my Nexus 4's ID, I did it and I managed to install it and finally got the RNDIS detected however I get an error in Windows that it cannot start the device (Code 10) reinstalling the driver doesn't work. I tried ActiveSync but it only works in Windows 2000. Help please?!
