eric.c.mi Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 I've been using a USB/midi keyboard that is powered from the USB and works great and natively. However nothing happens when I insert a USB flash drive formatted to FAT16(I believe). I tried 3 different Sony Digital Camera's. One did nothing, the other added an icon to the desktop but caused SBBOD when i tried to open it. I tried to mount it manually, but i dont see anything in /dev that looked useful. I remember on redhat it was /dev/sda any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanadoo Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Have you tried to boot the computer up with the devices plugged in? This works for me and my iPod. If i plug it in when OS X is running nothing happens, but if I plug it in and then start the computer it works fine. It's like the plug-and-play was removed from my USB-ports =) Try it! Cheers!
