USB cable

Robert Hitchens
I just bought a MacBook Air and when I plug the usb cable in, the computer does not recognize it.  I have the utility program for OsX and the port refresh doesn't help.  I have a usb cable for my scanner and the computer recognizes it when I plug it in.  Am I missing something?  The usb cable works fine with my PC

Thanks,

Bob  K8VQC

You're not running Parallels are you?

Did you install the driver for the cable? Macintosh does not
come with the driver installed. Follow the directions on the
Elecraft web site. Due to a new hard disk, I had to re-install
it recently. I didn't have to reboot after installing it.

Bob did you install the driver for your USB cable that you are using?
My Air works so well.
