I don't know how applicable this is to most people, but I tested a CCS ICD-U40 USB PIC microprocessor programmer/in-circuit debugger last night, and it seems to work fine, as does the CCS PIC C compiler, so I don't need a PC anymore for microcontroller development! |

This thread looks like it's heading down the embedded development route, so... Tech-Tools Digi-View DV1-100 logic analyser is sometimes recognised, sometimes not. Appears to connect to software, but after triggering the s/w crashes. This is using WinXP on PWbeta6, MacMini core duo. I'd also like to hear if anyone has success with the ICD2, or any universal USB programmer such as the xeltek. And if USB support improves greatly, I'd like to try the Rowley CrossFire LM3102 eval kit... Dan |

What USB Devices Work USB printer scanner (HP V40xi) is detected and drivers install without problems and device shows up on the USB panel. However, HP software cannot detect the equipment either as a scanner or as a printer. I've been able to install a wireless webcam (Linksys WVC54GC) and the windows only software works very well. Viewer shows video smoothly under XP. Recording utility works as programmed and makes recordings as scheduled. I am running Beta 6 with WinXP Pro on a mac intel mini and so far it has been stable after 48 hours of uptime. |

USB printers support are already fixed (most likely). Wait for the next public build please.

I'd be suprised if you could get a decent latency with the midi controller having to go via an emulated usb port, but I'll happily be proved wrong if I can get mine working. So far it's boot camp for anything more than basic winamp listening audiowise for me. |

U.s.b Just upgraded to RC hoping I would now be able to run the only app I need X.P. for & still will not recognise my u.s.b dongle. Looks like Iam still going to have to keep reebooting into bootcamp which works fine. Any ideas why still not seeing the dongle.:confused: |

I just tried a USB-Serial adapter Keyspan USA-19HS and it has the same problem as in the alphas, oops, betas. When I run the "Serial assistant" software, it recognizes the device for about 1 second, then dissapears. At that instant Parallels gives an error message that the device is in use and to try again in a few seconds. A couple of seconds later, the device gets recognized again for a second and then goes away again. This cycle repeats as long as the device is plugged in. The Parallel error windows also pile up on one another, rather than just update. As the only reason I need Windows is to communicate with a piece of equipment, I need USB fixed or the serial port implementation improved to support using "real" Mac serial ports (which gets created by the USB-Serial adapter on the Mac side). This is what I had using VirtualPC. If this RC becomes the actual release, I'll unfortunately be looking for a refund because despite the elegance of the virtual machine over botcamp and the promising work by Parallels, it will not have lived up to its promise and I cannot use it.

I am trying an Orion Starshoot USB camera and it claims the device is already in use. I disconnected and waited with no result. Also tried reboot and pause as well as doing so with it connected before and after boot or resume from pause. |

USB/RS232 Port converter I had trouble and eventually gave up trying to get the device recognized in a program that communicated through this device more or less automatically when used on a normal XP or WIN2K machine. Appears to see it in the USB devices window, but doesn't get to the program. Not much help here yet. |

USB Hasp protection key don't work Ho From Belgium, Here my first post. I've installed yesterday the parallels deskop for mac on my MacBookPro17' with windows XP SP2. Everything fine except: 1)a Scandisk 512Mo USB key crash the windowsXP and the parallels soft restart. 2) I use a programming tools named Windev10 on XP, this tools is protected by a HASP USb Key. The installation of the HASP Driver is ok, but Windev don't reconize the key when I start it. Best regards Stephane D. http://www.diamondsoftware.net |

My smartcard reader, an SCR3310 has not worked yet in any of the betas. I hope this will be addressed by the final release. The main benefit I gain from Parallels is the ability to access our corporate net with my mac, i.e. Exchange and file servers. I really need the smart card reader working in order to do VPN. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

USB problem Just to add my voice to the frey... I'm running the latest version of Parallels Workstation on my new 13" MacBook (mid-range model with 2GB RAM upgrade). I own a USB-attached HP Officejet 7110 all-in-one printer/scanner. I downloaded the latest driver software from HP's website, and was able to get the Parallels (running Windows XP) environment to recoginze the printer and thus kick off the software installation. However, when I tried to print, it wouldn't recognize the printer. Other than that, this product is simply awesome. I've been a long-time user of Virtual PC, but Parallels Desktop simply blows it into the weeds. |
