Default ilok One question

Anyone notice a problem with ilok 1's not being recognized with a powered USB 3 hub? I can connect my ilok 1's to the USB port of my new MBP (with USB 3) but they won't light up or be recognized with the hub. Ilok 2's are just fine in either.

Nathan

I understand that. I have been using a USB 2 hub for quite a while with no issues. But with the new machine and USB 3 connectivity, and I don't want to downgrade the bus speed - thus buying a USB 3 hub. I can plug the ilok 1 into the USB 3 port on the machine directly, but don't want to burn the port or make the ilok really inaccessible (the Mini will be racked) if possible.

It sounds like your newer USB3 hub is backwards compatible with USB2 but not USB1. The USB3 specification should be compatible but depending on the manufacturer it may have overlooked USB 1 (USB 1.1) compatibility. The old key-shaped iLok is USB 1.1. Maybe a different USB3 hub will work.

Yeh - this makes sense, Obsidian. Bummer though.

And Craig, I'll give that a try. Thanks to both of you for the suggestions.
