Suncing through USB hub "upgraded" after 3.1.2????

Hi all!
Before upgrading to 3.1.2, my phone would charge on my non-powered usb hub but would NOT sync. After 3.1.2 it also syncs!!!
Is this a fluke, or did Apple fix something?
Has anyone else noticed similar behavior?
M.

This is a discussions forum for users, Apple do not read all the posts.
The choppy scrolling was happening prior to 3.1.3 and I have used Feedback to inform Apple about it. However, until others also use Feedback, Apple will think I'm the only one with the problem and perhaps think I'm just being fussy. So please, all three of you, use http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html to let them know.

    windows can't find harddisk (connected through usb-hub to airport extreme) although airport utility can

    There are a number of posts related to copying issues between Windows Vista / 7 and AirPort Disks. Two potential solutions being forwarded are: 1) Changing the LAN Manager authentication level, and/or 2) Disabling the Windows Search feature.
     To change the LAN Manager authentication level:
    From the Windows Vista / 7 desktop, click Start
    Search for: security
    Click 'Local Security Policy'
    Goto Local Policies > Security Options
    Under Policy, double-click 'Network security: LAN Manager authentication level'
    Change level to: Send LM & NTLM responses
    Under Policy, double-click 'Network security: Minimum session security for NTLM SSP based (including RPC) clients'
    De-select 'Require 128-bit encryption'
    Click OK
     To disable Windows Search:
    Start > Control Panel > Programs > Programs & Features
    On the right-hand side, click "Turn Windows features on/off"
    Scroll down, and de-select "Windows Search".
    Press OK, close all windows and restart.
     A third "solution," that has worked for me, is verify that both the AirPort base station and the Win7 PC are using the exact same Workgroup Name. In my case, I use "WORKGROUP" (without the quote marks) for this name. From the AirPort Utility, you would enter this value on the Disks > File Sharing tab. On Win7, Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System > Change Settings > Change > Workgroup

  • Time capsule doesn't see printer through USB hub

    I can't seem to get the TC to see my USB printer if it connects through a hub.  I have an external drive plugged into the hub and I can plug it into any of the ports and the TC log file shows the disk plug in and unplug.  The disk works great.
    So far, the only way I've been able to print via the TC, is to connect the USB cable direct to the TC.  But there's no indication in the AirPort utility that the printer even exists.  Using System Preferences printer setup, I'm able to see the printer, add it and print a test page.  At no time did the AirPort utility indicate that the printer was indeed attached to the Time Capsule and functioning correctly.
    How do I get the AirPort to give me more log information?  I can't believe that I'm able to print via the TC, yet the printers pane is empty, and nothing in the system log.
    After doing this test, I again tried using the hub, and the printer is no longer visible on the Mac, but the disk on the hub is there.  I unplug the hub and plug the printer direct, and it's again visible on the Mac.  At no time does the TC indicate that the printer exists.
    I do Linux system admin all day and bought a mac because it runs Unix for command line, and is supposed to be a "no brainer" to manage - a big plus as I really don't want to bring my work home and just use the computer.  Sigh....
    Macbook is running 10.7.2
    Time Capsule is a new 2T unit
    Printer is Canon iP4300

    The thing that really bothers me is that when I connect the printer direct to the TC, the Mac sees it, but not the Time Capsule...  ***?!?
    Resetting the print system may...or may not....help here.
    See the last step in this Apple Support Document
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1253
    You are power cycling the entire network after you make a change in the USB connections, correct?
    A powered USB hub will run $15-20 or so. Highly recommended.

  • External Hard Drive will not mount through USB Hub.

    The Hard Drives are ok. If I plug them directly into my iMac (3 weeks old and update to 10.7.1) they mount fine. But they wont show up if I plug them into my USB Hub that is plugged into my iMac. I have had THREE USB Hubs and all of them have had problems. I have USB flash drive that sometimes shows up and a iPhone that will show up in iTunes when I mount it through the hub.
    Is there a program (in the system or share/freeware) that will force the Mac to scan and mount them?
    thanks - Otto.

    The issue is the EHD's are not getting enough power. Going forward never buy EHD's unless they have their own power supply. I would recommend either connecting directly to the iMac or replacing them with higher quality devices. The EHD's I like to recommend are:
    OWC Mercury Elite Pro series
    LaCie d2 Quadra series
    G-Tech G-DRIVE series
    All are similar in quality and features. Yes they're probably more money that what you paid however they're worth it. I use the LaCie's however I wouldn't hesitate to use the OWC or G-Tech's either.

  • Flash drive only mounts when connected through USB hub

    I have a PNY 32gb USB 2.0 flash drive, when trying to connect the drive directly to my Mid 2012 MBP (specs attached) the drive never mounts, doesn't list in diskutil as an unmounted drive either, however when I plug the drive into a Micro Innovations USB Hub (old ~ 2002) the drive mounts (albeit slowly).
    On my iMac (Mid 2010 I7) the drive works perfectly in the machine or through Apple USB Keyboard.
    Any help?

    Is that the only USB drive that doesn't work with your MBP ?
    Everything else works fine?

  • Connecting iPhone through USB hub

    I have a weird problem. When I connect the iPhone through a USB hub, nothing happens. It doesn't synchronize, it doesn't charge. When I connect the iPhone directly to the computer, with the same cable, it works as supposed.
    The weird thing is, I have been connecting the iPhone successfully through this (powered) hub for half a year. But suddenly it doesn't work. Everything else connected through the hub works fine.

    You're going to want a USB hub that comes with an AC adapter: the iPhone will draw as much power from the port as it reasonably can, and prefers up to 1 A (USB spec is 500 mA) at 12 V to charge as quick as possible. This tends to lead to undervolt situations on the bus when other devices suddenly draw more (a mouse wakes up, a HD spins up, et cetera).
    I use my iPhone 3G with a dock on a USB hub that's powered, and have had minimal issues. This isn't an endorsement, just FYI.

  • Cdrom audio permissions in udev through USB hub

    Connection of the HDD via USB adapter through a USB 4-port hub , then to the computer USB connector does not permit hdparm to recognize the HDD.
    Connection of the USB adapter directly to the computer USB connector permits hdparm to recognize the drive
    Command hdparm -tT /dev/sdb produces correct output with the USB adapter connected to the computer USB connector.
    What command should be used ,if any, when the USB 4 port hub is included in the interface?
    The effects of the hub would then be determined.....

    My setup is a bit different.
    I have the hub connected to the comp USB.  The USB audio adapter is outputted from the hub.  In addition, a USB to IDE powered adapter is outputted.
    The USB adapter feeds IDE output to an IDE cable with 5 devices connected.  Each of the 5 devices has power connected to them via "Y" cables modified to permit 5Volt line to be switched to select the IDE device to be powered "on".
    I have 3 HDD and a cdr/w/dvdrom connected to the IDE cable.
    The selection in the computer is established by fstab, using the same device:
    /dev/sdc1 /mnt/dvd-ext udf  ro,users,noauto,unhide 0  0
    /dev/scd1 /mnt/dvd-ext iso9660 rw,users,noauto,unhide 0  0
    /dev/scd1 /mnt/cdrom-ext iso9660 rw,users,noauto,unhide 0  0
    /dev/scd1 /mnt/cdrom-ext iso9660 ro,users,noauto,unhide 0  0
    /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1 ntfs defaults 0  0
    /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1 vfat defaults 0  0
    /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb3 ext3 defaults 0  0
    I have been able to burn a CD via K3b with this arrangement.
    This setup allows only one device to run or none(with adapter power off).
    I was having trouble with ID's which has been better organized now.
    The USB adapter shares bandwidth with the USB audio.
    The 12Volt line is connected to all devices on the IDE 5 device cable, and the 5v is selected by a switch.
    In operation, turn off adapter power, select device, turn adapter power on. 
    Computer recognizes the device...with the roms, insertion of a disc starts the computer recognition.
    I apologize for my stumbling over this interface which was new since the new 2.6.15 upgrade.
    I also have selectable HDD's in primary IDE with selection made before boot by single pin connector interface.  No bios call needed.
    Thus, only one HDD running inside the case, less heat and power dissipation.  I expect I could install four or five on an 80 strand IDE cable, enabling booting on alternate OS'es without using dual booting ,( which if one makes a mistake loses  all partitions).   I do make mistakes!
    Hope you can appreciate my arrangement which attempts to reduce power needs and lower case temps.  Not an automated selection process but a power saving setup.
    Have to find a case for the devices, now!
    Many thanks for your responses

  • Sending ASCII commands through USB hub

    I am having issues connecting to hardware. I have 3 types of hardware connected to a Serial to USB converter hub. 2 of the hardware take ASCII commands while the other does not. I am able to communicate with the hardware individually without the hub but when I connect the hardware to the hub and the hub to my computer, it does not work. I do not think MAX sees the hardware connected. Any ideas?
    CLD Certified 2014

    When you say "hub", are you talking about a product like the QUATECH USB to serial adapter (4 ports)?
    If so, then each port has its own serial port assigned to it.  You should be able to communicate through it using a terminal emulator, such as HyperTerm, TerraTerm, ProCOMM, etc.  
    You do have to install the driver for the box and you can also configure the starting COM port number.  For instance, Port A on my box is COM-3.
    You can open multiple ports in parallel, as long as you select different COM port numbers.
    MAX should see the serial ports.

  • USB hubs quit working with 10.7.2

    I have a Mac Pro, dual quad-core 2.8GHz Xeon, 10GB ram. Three D-link DUB-H7 usb hubs. After the update to 10.7.2 and iTunes 5.0.1 (not sure exaclty when), my usb devices & hubs quit working properly. For a while they would work occasionally.
    I have a USB keyboard which works if it's plugged in directly when the computer boots. But other devices (external drives, flash card reader, iPod dock, USB display) don't work at all. I tested the hubs with another Lion system, and they work on that. iTunes wireless sync quit as well.
    I've tried resetting PRAM and SMC. Neither fixed the problem. Tried repairing permissions. No change. Rebooting (many times).
    Could it be a USB driver conflict? I removed VirtualBox usb drivers, as well as Parallels, but not vmware, which I also own.
    When I plug in a device, I get 'trouble enumerating' and then "The IOUSBFamily was not able to enumerate a device." in the system.log
    Any ideas? Is my motherboard dying? If so, why does the keyboard still work, and nothing else?

    Followup info. I reset the PRAM and booted into 10.5.1, on another drive.
    This time, similar behavior; HID devices (keyboard, mouse, bluetooth) work fine. Hubs (which work fine on another Lion computer!) generate a bunch of console errors:

  • IMac 2012 OS's not loading while USB-Hub pugged in. Why?

    So i have a problem. I have a new iMac 21,5. I plugged in my iMac through my Smart-UPS and It has an USB control. SO i turn to iMac USB-Hub with 3 USB and card reader in it and to this USB-Hub i have connect USB cable going from Smart-UPS.
    When i turning on my iMac its stop loading and i see white screen which goes before screen with Apple logo. As soon as i remove USB cable USB-Hub from iMac its going loading good and then i connect USB-Hub again and it works well. Why it can happen?

    ok just did it.
    So right now all USB prots on iMac are busy.
    - USB Wacom Wirless connection kit
    - USB-Hub with cardreader
    - UPS directly to iMac
    - Wacom tablet.
    Turn on iMac and system starting and loading quick
    SO looks like trouble was that i had connect UPS through the USB-Hub? Why it could be? Just early when i have this connection of UPS through USB-Hub i notfied that in task bar(or how it called on iMac where clock, menu at the top) there are icon with power pluged to UPS showinig percentage of battery loaded. And sometime its appear and then disappear and jumping here and there. Now when it connected directly i see this icons always appeared.
    So it looks like it lost connection sometime and this USB-Hub only for turning usb flash, some low power stuff and memry sticks only?

  • USB-hub stopped working after upgrading

    I have a macbook pro 13 inch, year 2011.
    On my desk, I attach it to a thunderbolt display. To those USB-ports, I attached the belkin desktop USB hub (model F4U017) with 7 USB ports.
    All worked fine and without a glitch untill I upgraded to OSX Moutain Lion.
    Suddenly it won't connect annything I plug into it.
    All the cables of the hubb still work fine, those have been tested.
    When I tested the hub with a very old iMac (i think still with leopard it), it worked again.
    To be sure, I also tested a 4-port hub without external power supply on moutain lion. That one still works fine.
    How come my 7-port hub won't work any longer? How can I make it work?

    Not sure.  Might be an issue with the USB drivers in mountain lion.
    I've had an issue with a couple hubs not working after plugging back into my macbook pro while it's on.
    Fixed by restarting my computer, but that's super annoying and takes me back to my Win 95 days.  Never saw this issue before I upgraded to mountain lion.

  • Keyboard not recognized in USB hub after 10.6.3 update

    After updating to 10.6.3 (using combo updater) the keys on my Apple extended keyboard that shipped with my 24" iMac (2008) no longer work when the keyboard is connected through my Belkin powered USB hub. But oddly enough, the wireless mouse that is connected to the keyboard does work. So the keyboard is recognized and connected properly, but the keys don't work! It's definitely a software thing.
    I don't have enough free USB ports on the back of my iMac to dedicate to my keyboard. Any help appreciated. Thanks!

    I have the same problem. I found I can unplug the keyboard and when replugged, everything works OK.
    I just upgraded to OS V10.6.4 and still must unplug and replug the keyboard in order to type.
    WHY?

  • Anyone having issues with USB port power after upgrading to iTunes 11.1?

    After upgrading to itunes 11.1, I can no longer use the USB ports on my wired keyboard to synch my iPhone 4s, ipod Nano, and Ipad 2.  Previously, I could use this port to synch and charge the nano and iphone, and synch (but not charge) my iPad.  Now I simply get an error when I attach any of the devices ("a usb device needs more power").
    I currently use all four of the USB ports on the back of my imac (UPS power supply, aformentioned keyboard, a Lacie backup drive that has its own power supply, and a superdrive).  Interestingly, when I unplug the Superdrive (which is plugged directly into the mac on a separate USB port), the USB port on the keyboard will work.  Unplugging any of the other 2 devices does not allow the port on the  to work.
    I bought the wired keyboard to have the easily accessible UBS port to synch my nano as well as the fact I needed a number pad. 

    Get yourself a good self-powered 7 port USB hub to plug your extra devices into.

  • USB Hub(s) no longer working after 10.8.5 update

    Installed the 10.8.5 update via software update on my iMac 3.4Ghz i7 (no DVD drive) and had the Bluetooth unavailable issue I have seen mentioned elsewhere. Managed to restore Bluetooth via a restartwith all USB devices disconnected. However I have two USB hubs that no longer work. One is a colourful freebie so maybe not a surprise but the other is a powered D link USB 2.0 DUB-H7 which worked fine before the update. Now no device that is connected to it is recognized no matter which USB port the hub  is plugged in to. Leaves me somewhat short of USB ports.

    I've been struggling with this for 2 days, since I upgraded to 10.8.5 which I needed to go to get the latest iTunes, which I needed to upgrade my iPhone and iPad to IOS7 . . . yes, right down the garden path I walked
    MacBook Pro 17", early 2009.
    After the 10.8.5 upgrade Bluetooth is Not Available, same as seanluck13.
    -System Preferences: no sign of Bluetooth
    -System Search: no sign of Bluetooth
    -System Profile Information: Bluetooth: No Information Found
    -So Bluetooth is absent, removed, not present -- AGHHHHH!!!!!
    Apple BT keyboard and trackpad can't be used. MacBook trackpad is worn out and I get wrist strain trying to activate it!
    I read on a forum that a fix was to reinstall the system over the internet after a CMD-OPT-R restart. Did that -- 5 HOURS LATER -- NO CHANGE, BLUETOOTH STILL ABSENT !@(%&( )TY(@Q#*!!
    Please someone help me before I throw this Mac down the garbage shoot. At the moment that's only a fantasy.
