  • After plugging in your flash drive to your laptop, please edit your question to include the output of the commands sudo fdisk -l and mount | grep /dev/sd.

Look for a program in the Ubuntu Software Center, named Disks and install it. I've had the same problem with a few of my USB sticks, but Disks has always found them.

They may not mount automatically, but you can mount them in, Disks simply by clicking the Play button in the program's interface.
