How to replace power cord on kitchenaid k4-b?

Take the four screws off that separate the top of the mixer from the stand,they are just above the handle that locks the bowls up when mixing.once you get the top off you will see where the wires connect to,simply disconnect the wires,remember which colors go where,because when you put the new cord on you will need to know where each color goes,it pretty straight forward,once cord is screwed in,put top of mixer back together and the screws are evenly tight.plug it in and mix away,if there's no power orbit sparks unplug right away and check wires ,to make sure you got in right spot and they are tighten down all the way.

Do I need only one cord (usb) to connect to my laptop?

The "physically-smaller" external hard-drives draw power through the USB cable.
The "physically-larger" external hard-drives require an external power-supply (just like a laptop requires an external power-supply).

Check the casing for a plug where the electrical power would come in; if none, then the unit will draw electrical power through the USB cable.

I recently moved and after i plugged up my pc the speakers dont work. they dont even turn on. any ideas?

If you have external speakers with no power, I would first ask if you plugged in the speakers power supply cord? That would seem to be the main problem....No power to the speakers.

If this is not the problem, let me know and we will look into this further.

External hardrive not beinfg recognized. After usb cord was unplug then re-pluged in.

Shut down your computer and unplug the device. Then turn your computer back on, log in, wait for it to finish loading, then connect the drive and turn it on.
