I wanted to download my music via the phone app since most of my music library does not appear in my phone to download from the cloud (none of my music purchased via CD appears in it), but I encountered this problem:

When I connected my Lumia 920 for the first time to my computer, it did not showed the option to install any drivers. Instead it appears as "RM 820| Nokia Lumia 920" in divices and printers. I tried Troubleshooting but it says "MTP USB device has a driver problem" . I Installed the Windows phone app but it doesnt recogniced the phoen either. Running on Windows 8, 64 bit. HELP!!!

Hello!

My problem is the same.

Lumia 920 is a new phone, the operating system on my laptop Win7 64 bit.

I tried all the solutions proposed earlier, but did not help.

still I get the following error message: RM-821 / Nokia Lumia 920 device driver is not included.

Read the comments on the subject of the problem I think the win 64-bit operating systems features. I do not understand that Microsoft's mobile OS, Microsoft does not provide drivers for why?

(sorry for the poor English)

Here's what worked for me:

  1. Go to Microsoft Update download catalog page (link works only in IE) http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/home.a
  2. Search for 'Windows Phone WinUSB'
  3. Add the driver to cart and proceed to checkout
  4. Download the file to some directory
  5. Extract downloaded .cab file with eg. Winzip
  6. In Device manager click 'Update driver', 'Browse for sw', search for the directory you extracted the files and click Next.
  7. The "RM-821|Nokia Lumia 920" will be replaced by "Windows Phone WinUSB"

do the same for the second device and there you go."

Just a quick update. i found some advice on the Microsoft forum that suggested that i turned my phone off and on. Yeah right! i thought, but I had the windows phone app running on my mac anc connected my phone and as normal it was not recognised. Then I turned my phone off and on. On restarting the app recognised my phone :) Now i can connect anytime and sync my music etc. Hope this solution helps anyone else having this problem.

    This didn't work for me, however it helped me get a little closer:

    When I clicked on "RM-820|Nokia Lumia 920" under other devices, then clicked on "Update Driver", then "Browse my computer for driver software", then "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", then picked "Windows Phone" from the bottom of the list.  There were two drivers listed for me, I installed 4.8.2345.0 [8/5/2011] - It still warned me that installing this driver is not recommended because it might not be compatible with my hardware...

    Now when I connect my phone it will charge (didn't do that before).  It shows up in 'Devices and Printers' under 'Unspecified'.  It does not show up as a hard drive and does not attempt to install any other software (like it did when I connected to two Win7x32 machines)

    Solved it!!!!!!

    And it was so simple!!!

    I did not have windows media player installed, as this is a seperate download for windows 7 N. Went and got that (use the US site or the windows validation bit doesnt work)

    download the media pack file

    install as normal

    Re-start windows

    plugged in Lumia and its all there with total access either via the desktop app or with windows explorer

    Hope this works for you guys too!

    Thanks

    Jon
