[QUOTE="curt_bixel, post: 753656, member: 57254"] Thanks. I have a few more questions. First, when I go to system profiler and click USB, I had expected to see two USB ports displayed as my MacBook has two USB ports. Unfortunately, there are 6 or 8 displayed. How do I tell which of these is associated with a specific port I might plug my science probes into. Also, is there any way I can send more power to the port? Finally, is there any way I can reduce competing draws of power from the port to allow more power to the science probe? It seems that there should be some way to change this as the computer automatically sends more power to the science probe when the computer is plugged into the power adapter. PS. Is there anything competing with my trackpad that could be disabled. I have often found that my trackpad will have a bit of a delay before it responds to my finger motions. [/QUOTE]
