Make sure you're not using a 2 wire USB cable, like the kind hat comes with wireless headsets. That has charging wires, but no data wires. Also try a different USB port on the computer. If it still doesn't work, and the phone is under warranty, bring the phone and the cable to your carrier and ask for assistance.
