MOTU AUDIO EXPRESS YOSEMITE FIREWIRE PROBLEM

Post by tantric »

My mac book pro with yosemite 10.10.5 only detect my audio express sound card in USB2 connection, if i connect it in the firewire port it will not detect the sound card...

i tested the firewire cable in other sound card and it worked well...

i have tested also to connect the sound card with firewire in a windows laptop and it doesn't detect either!

someone can help?

Reset the NV RAM. If your FW ports have crashed, a common occurrence, this should bring them back. If you have Trim Enable.app installed, turn it off and reboot first.

It could be a FW issue with your unit or Mac but I would tru this first.
