[QUOTE="Soulwar, post: 633617, member: 46986"] You might try running [B]USB Prober[/B]. It is located in /Developer/Applications/Utilities, provided you have installed the Xcode developer tools. (These are probably present on your Tiger installer DVD, if you have one, but another way to obtain them, if you have a broadband Internet connection, is to go to [URL="http://developer.apple.com/"]http://developer.apple.com[/URL], join the Apple Developer Connection as a free online member, and log in to obtain the most recent Xcode tools installer as a 1GB download.) Apparently, just running USB Prober does some sort of USB reset that can "wake up" unresponsive USB ports. [/QUOTE]
