Problem with finding Limelight in Balena Etcher

We are trying to re-image our Limelight 2+ with the 2020.2 image. For some reason we cannot find it as a drive/target to flash it with in the Balena Etcher. It already has the 2020.1 image on it. This is our first time trying to re-image the camera after the original setup. Thanks.

Does etcher find it as a compute module with missing drivers?

From what I see, the etcher say that there is no removable drive connected.

Okay, how are you connecting the limelight to computer, to robot(it shouldn’t be), etc.?

I have a micro USB connected to the limelight and computer. Nothing else is connected.

I just found an answer to my problem. I was looking through another thread and realized I forgot some micro USB cables don’t transfer data, rather the only I was using only supplied power. I tried a different cable and it is working now.

Yeah, usually the ones that come with smartphones are best.

Can a bootable by Etcher be changed back?

You could reformat it using something like Gparted, though I’m not sure what that would get you with a Limelight other than a $400 flash drive.
