Im not sure if the device is broken, but i get a "USB device not recognized" on several different computers. Im guessing there must be some sort of physical damage and i tried a program for recovering lost data but it didnt see the flash drive.

Im sorry i wasnt very descriptive, its been a long week and it was pretty stressful at the time.

It may very well be broken. Here are a few long shot ideas though:

1) Try it on a machine with a different OS to see if it recognizes it.
2) If the connection is flimsy because of physical damage, try putting pressure on the flash drive from different directions.
