Mine sometimes does this. Have you tried different USB ports and different USB cables. I found that rebooting the phone helps, refreshing "my computer screen" and also just waiting for the drivers to install

usb connection

i have a strange problem!
when i connect my phone to my laptop,it just do charging,,and m unable to use usbstorage,,kies,,or music option in usb settings...please help

If u have a home replacement app (ADW, Launcher Pro, etc), get the app "home switcher"from the Market and temporarily switch over to the TouchWiz launcher, before plugging in ur USB. Switch back after u've used Kies.
For USB mass storage mode, u can use USB DEBUGGING mode, when u plug in ur device and choose the required option from the notification panel.
Hope this helps.

Have you done any modifications in tab as custom firmware or so?
Did you manage to connect the tab with the same pc previously ?

Buddy it happens when you don't plug in your tab at once.
To resolve problem restart the tab and put the usb into the port at once.
Try to connect it in another PC's

A simple fix that could work. Look in the device manager under USB and see if any "unknown device" shows up. If so, uninstall it, ok out and shutdown the PC. Unplug the PC from the power for a minute and then start back up. Try connecting it to the PC again. Even after you shutdown, the PC keeps a trickle going to the ports.
Buy a new lead , very cheap on place like Amazon. See If that works since Its not working on 2 PCs. Its either the lead or your Tablet
If its not the lead reflash your ROM.If that wont work you have a dodgy USB connector and it needs repairing.
I tried with another pc,still not detected.
p/s: lead?

Take out the sdcard and stick it in the pc with an adapter, maybe that works.
..
I haven't done a thing the phones literally a couple of weeks old

As gee2012 has said the only way to fix is get an adapter and plug into your pc. You can download image rescue software, Lexar and SanDisk both have versions.

Kingo system requirements

Is there any system requirements to root using kingo? Mine rooted just fine on a Windows 8 laptop but my brother is having issues with his Windows 7 laptop. Phone won't even give him the option to check USB 3.0. Is that option required for rooting? Any feedback would be appreciated.

I had some issues with my rooting using Win7. I was using the usb 3 cord then decided to try the regular usb. I used the Camera setting after connecting, so I had to switch it to that. After that it seemed to work alright.
