New mac pro recognises usb 2.0 as 1.0 - super slow data transfer!

updated my new mac pro 3.5 GHz 6-core intel xeon E5 to mac OS 10.9.2 today.
all periphals (standalone hubs, hubs in monitors, harddisks) are now recognised not as is (USB 2.0) but as USB 1.0 (ie transfer rate 12 Mbit/s), no matter whether they are plugged into a port of the mac pro directly or thru a hub. i do not get anything done anymore!
any advice how to get back to USB 2.0?
thank you!

  • New Mac Pro 32 USB Device Limitation???

    I was just told that the new Mac Pro has a 32 device limitation.  Some of these ports are taken up internally such as the Bluetooth USB controller and I was told USB hubs will take up a port as well.
    The limitation is dramatically reduced by bus powered devices and I noticed I reached the ceiling with as little as 14 devices. 
    I had 35 of the same devices connected to my 2006 8-core and never had issues.  I think this is a severe limitation. 
    For now I am trying to find wall adaptors for each bus powered device.  If anyone has any further information on this issue please disclose.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • New Mac Pro with usb SSD

    I have a new Mac Pro (2014) with latest updates. Any time I use my SSD it randomly restarts itself. Could be doiing anythign as simple as transfering one file or something like multi-track recording audio. The drive is Kingston SSDNOW KC300. (SSD is formated OS Extended) I am using a Apricorn SSD to USB adapter.
    Here is the report from the last time it crashed.

  • Problem connecting to new Mac Pro with USB

    I have a new late 2013 Mac Pro 6 core with 64GB RAM and a 1 TB SSD. I use a Thunderbay IV Thunderbolt drive bay and a Newertech Voyager for external storage and backup. The Thunderbay works perfectly. When I place a 4TB drive with a couple of TB of data (photos) into the Voyager, it appears as an empty 1.8TB drive. If I take the exact same drive and place it into the Thunderbay via Thunderbolt, it sees it as 4TB, sees the data, and seems to have no problem. If I ask disk utility to verify the disk in the Voyager, I get this message "Error: Partition map check failed because no slices were found." This happens regardless of which of the 4 USB ports I connect it to. Basically the drive will boot just fine in the Thunderbay, (Thunderbolt) but not in the Voyager (USB). I initially thought the Voyager was at fault, but this has happened with both a brand new S3 USB3 unit as well as my older Voyager Q USB 2 unit. I can connect a USB 3 card reader with no apparent problems as well as my iPhone, iPad, and two Epson printers. I am thinking that there is some problem with the USB connections in the Mac Pro but would appreciate any thoughts.

    You got me curious so I dug further. We weren't alone in that problem. See this Apple discussion. And this review mentioned the 2TB limit as did this one. We both were the victims of progress. I remember when a 40MB HD upgrade was a big and expensive deal for an SE-30.

  • USB keyboard not working on new Mac Pro with Mavericks

    I just bought the new Mac Pro and my apple USB keyboard won't work. I have a very old apple USB keyboard that is working but I want to use my newer one. The newer keyboard is a full one also, including the number pad.
    Thanks

    no difference in ports just troubleshooting, ie if it didn't work on any of the 4 ports, likely a kb issue
    if it worked on one of the other 3 ports, you have a broken usb port on the mac pro

  • USB Card Reader not recognized on new Mac Pro (late 2013)

    My Sony USB multi-card reader (model: MRW62E), which I use for SD cards mostly, works on my MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012), my new iMac, and my old Mac Pro (2009), via the USB ports, but is unrecognized entirely on my new Mac Pro (late 2013). All machines are running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. Neither the card reader, nor the cards appear at all in FCP, image capture, apple system profiler, the desktop, or disk utility. I cannot find any drivers online addressing the issue, including Sony's website.
    Perhaps an additional update for increased compatibility vis-a-vis the new Mac Pro would do the trick...

    Does the reader show up under USB in System Report?
    If the reader is working properly both the reader and an inserted card will show up.

  • New Mac Pro USB Problems!

    It seems the new Mac Pro cannot recognize certain devices.  Such as my Access Virus Ti synthesizer-  users cannot get the Mac to recognize the USB connection from the Virus.  Please help.  I'm losing my mind after 7 hours trying to figure it out and the only indication is that the USB ports on the new mac are possibly incompatible...  Please tell me I can still use my $3000 instrument with my new $4500 mac pro which i just bought SPECIFICALLY to use with this VIrus Ti synthesizer!
    Link to Virus Ti user forums showing other people with the same problemhttp://www.virus.info/forum/index.php/Thread/5522-MacPro-trashcan-and-TI-Anyone- got-it-working/?postID=28004&highlight=trash%2Bcan#post28004

    From what you said it appears that the synthesizer is not compatible. That would be a problem for the synthesizer manufacturer to resolve.

  • New Mac Pro 2013 late version USB 3.0 hub issue during boot

    Hi all, I just purchased a new Mac Pro 8 core with 32GB of ram and 1 TB drive. When I connect a USB powered 3.0 hub and turn on my Mac Pro, it gets hung on while booting. (Gray screen before the Apple logo appears on boot). If I pull the USB 3.0 hub out, the Mac Pro proceeds to boot normally. Once I am fully booted on my Mac Pro and I plug the USB 3.0 hub back in, everything seems to work fine. I have an enclosure that works off of lightening connector and the enclosure has a USB 3.0 hub onboard. I plug the USB 3.0 hub in that device and every thing seems to boot up fine on the Mac Pro. Any idea why when I plug in the USB 3.0 directly why the Mac Pro ha issues booting up?
    Thanks in Advance.

    The Driver for the Hub does not get loaded until late in the Boot-up process.
    It is common not to be able to use devices on a Hub during boot-up, as they will not be ready (and therefore not available) until the Login screen appears.
    For devices you need during boot-up, attach directly to a built-in USB port on the chassis, not on a display or any other Hub.
    If your issue is only that the device interferes with Booting in general, ask the guys at OWC. They select their stocked items for trouble-free, and train their support people to resolve remaining problems quickly. If there is a problem, they will help you get is fixed quickly -- often providing an advanced exchange if that seems appropriate.

  • Connect new Mac Pro to Canon MP610 w/ usb

    I want to connect my new Macbook Pro by usb cord to an existing Canon MP610 printer.  What driver software do I download?  The Canon site has 3 options.  Then 3 more options for another function.  I'm confused.

    Plug it in to your Mac and wait to see what happens, in many cases there will be nothing for you to do.

  • New Mac Pro with Thunderbolt and USB  3.0

    it is exceedingly frustrating to be waiting with no surety that there will be an upgraded Thunderbolt and USB3.0 Mac Pro in the pipeline. professional doing advanced graphics and video need this and need it now and need for certain a time schedule to plan partial investment in new Equipment. Apple has let is down for two years now and surely the second largest corporation on the planet can afford the R and D for it and certainly it would cost the company nothing to let us in on this schedule. there is no real  competition for this. it is not giving away any advantage but it certainly would give is some ammunition to prevent bean counters from instituting a wholesale move to Dell or others. We need some serious upgrading and we need a heads up on when.

    The iMac would require a Magma outboard PCIx box that doubles the cost of the IMac and still does not do the job. that approach is a kludge to try to use an amateur user machine to do what a professional workstation can  do, with The assorted updates I applied to my Mac Pro though it is not as fast at processing as the top of the line iMac it was much more flexible, can run many screens without having to buy new thunderbolt screens and with USB 3 and eSATA cards bypass reasonably the lack of Thunderbolt in the short term but it is a ridiculous and non Mac way to have to run,my work station. And..I am sure I am not alone...Apple better get their act together in the professional market or they will have kissed off many of is in another year.. that would be a huge pity. As well the iMac screen is insufficient and lacks a full Adobe colour palette and its incorrect black levels and inability to be controlled by such tools as a Huey make the screen good only for menus and control panels.  that is why I still use the Mac 30 inch and also a Dell 30 inch screen as they can be calibrated accurately which the iMac can not. the only solution is a new Mac Pro. for the contributor who suggested I contact feedback already regarding  this..I had done that but I figured that they must scan the discussion groups to find out what customers feel about user  situations and the more responses to my comments the better the argument for new hardware.

  • USB Connection Issues-New Mac Pro

    I have a new Mac Pro (late 2013) that has USB connection issues.
    First; it often fails to recognize a USB keyboard, or takes more than a minute to do so.  I tried it with two different keyboards, one a regular Apple USB keyboard and the other a Das Keyboard unit.  I tried it both on a powered USB hub and directly connected to the computer.  Neither of these affected the problem.  It happened both under Mountain Lion and Yosemite, and seems to be worse under Yosemite.  This problem DOES NOT occur on my Mac Mini, so the problem appears to be with the Mac Pro.  Most of the time unplugging and plugging the keyboard in again solves the problem.  This gets old.  I have gone to using a bluetooth keyboard but much prefer the USB keyboards with the numeric keyboard.
    It also ejects the only USB drive attached to it.  It does not eject the two Thunderbolt drives.  The disconnection occurs when the Mac Pro is in the "sleep" mode; the "Disk not ejected properly" message is displayed when the computer wakes up.  This happens almost all the time.  The same drive does not exhibit this behavior when attached to the Mac Mini.  It is an older G-Drive unit.
    Possibly related to this is the fact that the two Thunderbolt units (Pegasus R2 and Lacie) do not shut off when the Mac Pro is sleeping.  I wonder if the problem lies in how the unit "sleeps" and "wakes up".  I don't know enough about the internal workings of these things to know how to test for this.
    If anyone knows how to fix this I'd appreciate some advice.

  • Using a 30" Cinema Display with new Mac Pro

    Hello Everyone:
    I just purchased, and waiting to arrive a new 2014 8 core Mac Pro which is an upgrade to my 2009 quad core Mac Pro. I currently use a 30 inch Apple Cinema display which has the DVI connection. I was thinking that I would use a DVI to HDMI adapter and plug the 30" into the HDMI port on the new Mac Pro. I have since heard that people have been having issues with this older monitor getting it to work properly with the new mac pro. some have suggested buy the $99 mini display port to DVI adapter and using that, but I don't believe there is a mini display port on the new mac pro.
    I have considered buying a new thunderbolt display because I am assuming that it will have a much better image quality than the older 30 in display but I hate the fact that it's a 27" and I would be giving up the 3" in size. I do a lot of video and audio recording editing and love the extra screen real-estate.  Can anyone confirm a couple of things for me?
    1. Will the 30 inch display work with a new mac pro and can I use the DVI to HDMI adapter?
    2. Does the new Thunderbolt display have a much better image quality than the 30 in display and because its newer, will look that much better with the mach pro?
    Thank you in advance.

    1. Will the 30 inch display work with a new Mac Pro?
    Yes.
    Can I use the DVI to HDMI adapter?
    Not if you want full resolution.  You need a Mini DisplayPort to dual-link DVI adapter
    <http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter>
    It plugs into a Thunderbolt port (and USB port) on the computer.
    2. Does the new Thunderbolt display have a much better image quality than the 30 in display and because its newer, will look that much better with the Mac Pro?
    No, it has more pixels (in the vertical direction), but they are spaced a bit more apart, so you don't want  to be as close to the display.

  • My brand new mac pro always had Internet connection issues at school. WHY is that? I see the school's Internet working perfectly fine on other PC's, but there is never a day where my mac doesn't have Internet connection issues at school. How do I fix it?

    I got my mac pro in the middle of August. School started the week after. Internet was working perfectly fine at home. But at school, I never had a good connection. Sometimes on the good days I get a connection when I'm sitting at the exact spot in class I always sit at. It's ridiculous and it's frustrating. I invested my money into this laptop and I'm beginning to regret it. I thought it was the school's Internet, but I don't see Internet issues with other PC users. It's most frustrating on registration days and I'm trying to register for my classes before it gets taken, but again... Internet connection issues. It's random. Majority of the time, it doesn't work at all. I've done Network Diagnosis and turning WiFi off then turning it on again. I've done everything I could. I put my money on this laptop and it was a lot of money. I could have bought an 800 dollars laptop and I would have Internet connection anywhere on campus. So, I don't want to continue everyday to regret on buying this laptop every time I try to connect to the Internet at school or Starbucks or anywhere else. How do I fix this? What's the problem ?
    At school, I heard this guy had a problem with Internet connections too and he owned a new mac book pro. He said something like Apple messed up on something, but he fixed it. If I knew mac book pro's had these issues I wouldn't have bought it in the first place. It's freezing on me every other day. It's ridiculous. But what concerns me the most is the Internet connection. So someone please tell me what can I do next to prevent the problem? Am I doing something wrong maybe?

    Hi Kevin,
    I'm using an XLR input mic which is connected to the phantom power enabled XLR mic socket on a USB M-Audio M-Track. The M-Track is connected by USB to the Mac Pro - so effectively I've got an M-Audio USB soundcard with a mic input.  I've also tried a microphone that is a straight XLR to USB cable (guessing with some soundcard chip buried in the usb plug) but that also yields the same effect of bad latency, intermittent quality, stuttering and repeating and echoing (without the speakers on during record so its not feedback).
    The mic works absolutely fine with other recording applications I have on the mac at the moment - albeit non-adobe ones (tested it on the EasyAudioRecorder - and it lives up to its name. it's easy)
    I will try with Audition and report back, but sitting here right now I can imagine it would work fine with audition too - it just seems to be the way premiere is set up for recording into the timeline is a bit sketchy.  I'm willing to accept it might well be a quirk with the new Mac Pro trashcan - I'm not weighting all the woes on premiere.
    Any thoughts or am I out of luck to sit with my fingers crossed for a fix in the next round of updates?
    Nathan.
