I went to development --> applications --> checked all the boxes, but I still do not get anything to pop up on the notification bar. The only thing that happens is my computer gets a pop up that says "USB Device not recognizeable. What am I doing wrong? By the way I have a droid 3. Thanks!

@jteebagy The newer devices I am uncertain about, as the've started going off the built in internal memory and not the memory card. I do believe the Droid 3 offers that Motorola iCloud clone however, so that may work for you instead...

I plug my phone in and no good drid sound notice comes up usb debugging connected.Do i turn that off or keep it on? when I click that it doent ask me if I want too mount it just takes me to the debugging window please help

@callmeleelee make sir you go into Settings -> Applications -> Development -> and check mark all the boxes. The main two are "Stay Awake" and "Enable USB Debugging"

once you do that, plug it in, drag down the notification bar-and select "USB Connected". Dependng on the version of Android you're running, the screen may look different. Either select USB Mass Storage or just click enable.
