What to do if your Windows 10 computer cannot detect ViewSonic monitor over HDMI and shows the "no signal" error?  The following remedies may not work: Connecting the monitor via VGA. Switching the projecting through Win Key + P Restarting the computer.  Using a different HDMI cable.  Re-plugging the cables Solution:  Connect your monitor to a different device and ensure your monitor receives the signal. And then, disconnect from that device and connect it to the device you prefer.  That somehow reminded the monitor of its job.  In my case, I connected it to the IP TV receiver. It could be a different computer or your XBOX or satellite receiver.   Have a good day!

SOLUTION You need to mount USB storage using PMOUNT via the terminal.  First, install PMOUNT sudo apt-get install PMOUNT Then mount the storage device: pmount /dev/sda1 (replace sda1 with drive label) You can find the drive label from the Disks  utility; search for Disks on Ubuntu. To unmount. p u mount /dev/sda1  ( replace  sda1 with  drive label)
