USB device no longer works after 10.6.5 patch

After installing the patch for 10.6.5 Thursday, my Belkin N52te no longer works. It has previously worked fine, and the system extension for it was able to see it, but now it says "No device connected". I have tried re-installing the driver, and 75% through the installation I get a message that the xxx.kext file was not installed correctly. I get this each time I attempt to re-install it.
This gamepad has worked flawlessly for me since purchase in spring of '09 prior to this.
Please don't tell me to update the driver, as Belkin's "latest" is Feb 09. I have contacted Belkin, and am waiting for a response.
I found a suggestion of finding the old usb.kext file from the system backup I have on a second drive, and replacing the current one with it. If anyone thinks this will work, could they give me the exact name of the file to look for?
It seems odd that Apple, after trying to get the Mac accepted as a viable gaming machine, should put out a patch that breaks one of the most widely used "speedpads" on the market. I have been an avid World of Warcraft player for close to 6 years now. The enjoyment I receive while playing WoW has been the driving reason for me to purchase 2 top of the line Mac Pro's in the past 4 years. Come on Apple, fix this, please!?
Thanks,
Dan K.

February 2009? Snow Leopard wasn't even out yet. It is lucky it has worked for a year and a half.
Come on Apple, fix this, please!?

While this may work, that's a jalopy of a solution. It might break in the next update, not being up to date itself, and some other extension might be dependent on it. Best to downgrade until you can get assurance that it will work with 10.6.5, if this is an important feature for you. You can either recover your backup, or if not available, see this tip:

  • Usb devices no longer work - after itunes 8 uninstall as well.

    Have uninstalled itunes 8 as outlined in various posts on internet. However, now none of my devices such as camera and printer are recognized by my computer. Hope someone has solved this problem. Thanks.

    Hello, Emir,
    I'd suggest you ask again in the MacBook Pro forum. This forum is intended for old, pre-PowerMac G3 hardware and so not the most likely place to get a quick and applicable response.

  • [SOLVED] Default audio device no longer works after reboot

    After today's reboot, the audio device no longer works. E.g., VLC says:
    Audio output failed:
    The audio device "default" could not be used:
    No such file or directory.
    This is the console log:

    The strange thing is that the sound card does in fact work; e.g. the sound test for "HDA Intel PCH", the first entry in my KDE Audio Settings, works. But the entry "default" does not and I suppose that is also the device that VLC is complaining about.
    I've tried blacklisting the HDMI driver and switched to the other audio output modules in VLC. I've also checked I'm still member of the "audio" group.
    Edit:
    P.S. Solved this myself. I had a USB-to-MIDI adapter cable plugged in during boot, which seems to have been causing these problems. I suppose systemd thought it was a USB sound card? I was wondering why dmesg said something about USB sound when the computer doesn't have any USB sound devices. Hardware detection epic fail. Although I guess the cable counts as a MIDI device at least, so in a way it's correct.
    So it looks like I'll always have to unplug the MIDI cable before rebooting.

  • Some USB ports no longer working after installing Mountain Lion?

    Some of my USB ports are no longer working after installing Mountain Lion onto my 21' 2011 iMac. I used to plug in my iphone 4S and charge it, or transfer files onto my iPad but none of the ports no longer work to do this. Funnily enough, other equipment plugged into the works. I have tried changing the cable. Any ideas?

    In my experience, the USB ports on the back of an Apple monitor can be re-enabled simply by unplugging and plugging back in the device in question. You might also check to see that the USB Monitor hub shows up in System Profiler. My Apple monitor USB ports experienced no changes in moving to 10.4.7.

  • [SOLVED] USB 3G no longer works after upgrade to GNOME 3.8

    I did the 'big' update today, including upgrading to GNOME 3.8. Unfortunately, NetworkManager no longer picks up my 3G USB modem (which used to work fine before the update). Any pointers as to how I could debug this would be greatly appreciated.
    wvdial has never really worked for me, but gnome networkmanager used to pick up my device and the connection, and now simply acts as if it's no longer present. Attempting to follow the instructions on the wiki to re-setup my USB stick (the instructions I followed in the first place) no longer works. Did today's update cause the same problem for anybody else?
    **Update: After updating today to modemmanager 0.7.990-4 and running
    sudo systemctl enable ModemManager
    sudo systemctl start ModemManager
    I have full connectivity again with the built-in DW5550 mobile broadband card in my Dell Precision M6600 (including showing signal strength in the GNOME 3.8 top bar, etc). Thanks all for the help, and (most importantly) to whoever fixed up modemmanager!

    wvdial might also be a workaround, if one does not like to downgrade. In my case, I had to unset my PIN on the SIM card first. One can do that using a mobile phone, for example.
    Then
    # pacman -S wvdial
    in /etc/wvdial.conf, I put
    [Dialer Defaults]
    Init2 = ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0
    Modem Type = Analog Modem
    ISDN = 0
    Stupid Mode = 1
    Dial Attempts = 3
    Init1 = ATZ
    [Dialer huawei]
    Modem = /dev/serial/by-id/usb-ZTE_Incorporated_1_1_Surf-stick_MF19001MOD010000-if02-port0
    Baud = 115200
    [Dialer voda]
    Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","web.vodafone.de"
    [Dialer dial]
    Phone=*99**1#
    Username = umts
    Password = umts
    You can find out your modem name by looking it up with
    ls /dev/serial/by-id/
    In my case there were names containing the strings if00, if01 and if02, and if02 turned out to be the correct one. This depends on hardware.
    Also, in the "Init 3" line, you may have to replace "web.vodafone.de" according to your provider. The section "dial" seems to be quite universal from what I read on the web, so you may not have to change that.
    then
    # wvdial huawei voda dial
    and hope for the best.
    Disclaimer: I do not have a comprehensive understanding of what I did here, but it worked in my case and it might work for you, too.
    I noticed that the Defaults section makes a difference, because the one I just edited in above avoids some delay in dialing.

  • USB ports no longer working after 10.4.7 update

    Hi, I ran the latest update (10.4.7) on my machine which is a G4 Quicksilver PowerPC. I have an Apple 17 inch flat screen display that has two USB ports attached. I had my keyboard plugged into one of the USB ports on my flat screen. After the update both USB ports on the flat panel no longer work! I can use the USB ports directly off the G4 itself and it works fine. Has anyone seen this issue? I guess I am stuck now until Apple decides to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Rob

  • USB stick no longer working after upgrade to 10.5.8

    Hello,
    On one my older Macbook Pros I just recently did the recommended upgrade to 10.5.8. Since then none of my memory sticks are longer being displayed in the finder window.
    Things that I have done
    -reboot
    -made sure that external drives are being dispalyed
    -In System Profile under USB I can see the hardware. If I try another brand USB key I can see the change in System Profile.
    -Other USB devices like mouse and printer are working ok
    -I have also tried an external hard drive
    All of these devices use to work fine are working fine on my newer Macbook Pros that are running 10.6.x
    Has anyone come across this ?
    Emir

  • USB drive no longer works after system reinstallation

    Recently I reinstalled the system (after 1 year of no uptades). One of my USB disks (strictly speaking it is a 2.5" disk in a USB enclosure) stopped to work. When I connect the USB cable the drive icon doesn't appear on the desktop. I attach the dmesg messages:

    If I try to 'mount' it as root I get:
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb2,
    missing codepage or helper program, or other error
    In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
    dmesg | tail or so.
    The drive is OK. I was able to use it on other computers, reiserfsck showed no errors. Also my computer is OK, and I was able to mount the drive using some old arch linux cd.
    The system is 64-bit, I use the default kernel (3.9.2-1-ARCH x86_64). I wonder, what could be missing in my configuration?
    I'm able to use other USB pendrives, hard disks, mouse with no problems

  • USB Devices No longer working afte 10.4 update.

    My external USB 2 drive is now no longer recognized by my Macs after the upgrade. The weird thing is that if I run Parrallels they appear as normal.
    The drive does not appear in disk manager put does on hardware profiler.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Steve,
    As Eric says, you may be able to repair this with 10.4.10 Combo Updater Intel.
    This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before. It has worked well for many.
    Remember to Verify Disk before update and repair permissions after update from /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
    Good luck.
    EDIT: You can't "reverse the patch" without erasing your drive and re-installing. Hopefully, you won't have to.

  • After updating my 3GS with ios5, my BMW usb interface no longer works

    After updating my iPhone 3gs with ios 5, my BMW usb interface no longer works.  I can no longer see my music on the screen and cannot control my music.  I tried my old Nano in my car and that works so I'm thinking it must be something with ios 5.  Any suggestions?

    Update:  I was able to resolve the problem by re-syncing the music on my iPhone in iTunes and then shutting down the phone and restarting it.  After that, I connected the usb cable from my car to the phone and it worked.

    I've been working on this problem since yesterday and now i'm stuck. Can someone please help?
    EDIT
    I think it's something related to the driver. If i change the driver to another printer model from CUPS the printer works. Prints garbage, but at least works. So this means that we have to wait for a new driver or what?

  • USB audio DAC stops working after suspend

    I didn't update my mediacenter running arch for a few months so I figured i'd reinstall it because of the filesystem, /lib and grub changes. Now after reinstalling I'm running into the issue that my USB audio DAC stops working after a suspend.
    After a suspend speaker-test gives me the following error:
    [user@mediacenter ~]$ speaker-test -c 2
    speaker-test 1.0.25
    Playback device is default
    Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels
    Using 16 octaves of pink noise
    ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1068:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
    Playback open error: -77,File descriptor in bad state
    I've tried replugging my DAC and restarting ALSA, without any success. I have to reboot to get sound again.

    Yes I am suspecting the kernel as well. I'll try to change some options in XBMC to maybe get this working, and if not I'll see how far I can downgrade with the kernel. My last installation was a few months old so I hope it broke not that long ago.
    Thanks for the help

Maybe you are looking for
