Which USB ports shall be used on a MacBook to connect the audio device?

Due to internal routing of the USB ports in many cases only a certain USB port is working properly for using an USB audio device on MacBook Pro's.

You need to check in the Apple System Profiler (in Utilities) under Hardware->USB if your USB audio device shares a USB High-Speed Bus with another USB device or not. If necessary try another USB port on your computer. Finally the USB audio device should not share its USB High-Speed bus with any other device.

In some cases it already helps to take the USB audio device away from the USB High-Speed Bus that is shared with the internal iSight camera.

A general recommendation for all types of MacBooks (MacBook Pros) about the best USB port cannot be given.

    now, Paul Smith shoes, paul smith clothing, and paul smith swimwear are beautifully crafted with brilliant attention to detail. Paul Smith socs are an unexpected element of fun to any ensemble. Collections are primarily produced in England and Italy, while the fabrics used are mainly of Italian, French and British origin. my website http://www.newpaulsmith.com
