I had exactly the same problem as you. To make matters worse I had even dammaged the USB connector on my MB cos I was being lazy.
However for a while I though it was ok as when I was testing the Tubemeter it would still flash when connected to this damaged MB USB. However it was not registered in my Aquasuite software and came up as unknown item in the USB section of devices.
If possible try it in another USB connection but read your manual carefully cos it is very easy to make mistakes with the USB parts.
I had exectly the same symptoms as you and it is probably because you have connected the 5-pin aquabus connector to your Tubemeter incorrectly. Make sure you connect your tubemeter like this:
I am sure this is your problem. Please also note despite the wrong connections to my Tubemeter I have made, it so far seems to have survived, so don't dispare yet.

Is there any chance you can take a picture of your connections to the motherboard of your USB for your aquaero, tubemeter and how your tubemeter is connected. Also give the name of your Motherboard.
I would be interested to see it, and is the power still connected to your aquastream?
Have you tried connecting to a totally different USB output on your motherboard, cos you usually have 4, and 2 are combined on the same blue set of 9 pins. Have you tried a completely new set yet? I need to know your MB USB'd are still working correctly.
Can you also confirm that the tubemeter has been connected so that the No5 pin (See pic above) of the tubemeter is connected to red wire with using both the straight through connector to your MB and the 5-pin aquabus cable. The No2 pin should be a black one in both cases.
If this is the case then I guess it is damaged, but why does it have a solid red light with one connection and a blinking one with the other, I still therefore think there could be a incorrect connection somewhere.

Humm, I'm at a loss then. Can't even remember what .net i have installed but i dont get any of your error messages.
My OS is a English UK version is yours USA?
Are you planning on getting another one?

Are you using this cable to connect it? - Clicky

The molex has to be powered too, that is how the tubemeter gets its electrial power. The USB has a 5volt output on it when you connect it to the USB on the motherboard. Without that you need the 5volts from the molex to power the Tubemeter as it dose not come from the Aquaero like the connection between the Aquastream does.
Also, and I mean, make absolutely sure you have connected the 5pin cable to the tubemeter as shown in the picture above. I got the same errors you have with that incorrectly connected. You should be able to see a raised pin with a number one on it, the black wire should goto the side of that pin. (see the pic above) Also make sure your aquastream in not powered if it is connected to the aquaero.
Let us know if that solves it, all your software and firmware looks uptodate.

Can you also confirm that the aquastream is not powered by the molex power supply as well as the aquastream cable.

What happens if you try another molex connector into your tubemeter maybe off the same powerline thats connected to your aquaero?
As far as I can tell it should work, one further question is your tubemeter blinking at all now. Within the aquasuite software can you switch that off and on. can you adjust any of its settings now.
Also even though the pump shows its changing mode does it seam to do the same thing all the time.
Can you report back

Right, now would you believe me if I had exactly the same issues that you describe. You have not though cleared up if you can get the tubemeter to blink within the software yet, if you can't you have definately connected the tubemeter incorrectly from my experience.
I had exactly the same symptoms when I was trying to get mine to work, had funny characters showing, the aquaero reported the pump not to be connected when the tubemeter was even though it actuarly was still running. The tubemeter did not blink and I could not get it blink in the software either. However it looked like it had some level in it, which made me think it was working.
I was also convinced for ages I had connected the tubemeter up correctly. It was not untill I got a spare one and connected that up that it worked first time. I then realised that I was connecting the tubemeter up incorrectly cos i could not see what I was doing inside the pc.
Sorry to be a pain, but have another look and try and find that raised pin.
Otherwise I can't help you anymore as it's outside my own expereince.
