I had an sdhc camera card go south while on vacation. Camera said it was up formatted bu failed trying to format it. It wasn't recognized by my mac even though disk tool saw it as unformatted, but couldn't format or repair it. I wound up buying disk drill which recovered all the photos off the drive for me, and I was even able to reformat it after it worked it's magic. You can find a free trial version online

Not to insult anyone's intelligence but have you restarted your daughter's computer? I ask because my daughter's 15inch macbookpro never gets restarted by her. No matter how many times I tell her to she can't be bothered with all the time it takes to restart and I always find her usb port dead. She virtually never uses the port. Every time I try to hook something to the USB I find it dead and have to power down and reboot her computer and then it works. I could probably do a restart but at that point I like to do a full power down just for peace of mind. It has fixed the port every time.
It doesn't sound like you have this problem given it's not showing up on the PC too but perhaps it's formatted in a mac centric format that's keeping the PC from being able to read it?

Hello all
My daughter's Mac Sandisk Ultrafit USB3 128GB flash drive suddenly failed without being fully backed up...
The Red light is flashing on it.
It does not show up at all in Disk Utility or the Terminal.
Its presence is noted on my PC laptop, but not on my Mac Pro 5.1 (although the red light flashes).
I own Disk Warrior 4.4 but it's too old to run on my Mac - would Disk Warrior 5 be able to resurrect this thing?
Any other ideas for a Witch Doctor programme that can find/diagnose/wake up/fix/extract files etc?
Thanks for any advice.
