1st the volume level has no effect on data transfer...
 
Sometimes a little plastic shaving is needed.  Shave carefuly a little off the plastic shroud around the cable male connector where it plugs into the radio as it interferes with the radio's case prventing the connector from solidly seating.  This may be the issue here...

NO luck yet. I held the plug in as far as it would go, no change. I turned the volume up all the way, no luck. I closed CHIRP and re-opened as Administrator,still no luck up or downloading.

thanks for your assistance

Try making sure you vigorously plug the connector into the radio and hold it in while loading from chirp.  Also turn the volume up from minimum.   Last resort run chirp as adminstrator.

On Wednesday my 2 BaoFeng UV 5R radios could download and upload to CHIRP. 

On Friday all I got was the following message:  Radio Did Not Respond.

I tried reloading the latest version of CHIRP, no change.  I tried an earlier version of CHIRP, no change. I reloaded the latest version back, no change.  Visually the radio's red light blinks then the LED display blinks then the error message shows up on CHIRP.

 

Any suggestions?

Thanks Chuck KJ7INT
