USB IrDA Problem

Build 5608 German version
Mac OSX 10.5.3

First - sorry for my english

My Polar IrDA adapter USB 2.0 do not work. When I put the adapter in, it was not merged.
All other usb devices run perfectly.
What can I do?

 

Do you get any error when connect it to Guest OS (what is Guest OS?)
Did you install drivers?

 

Guest OS = WinXP Home edition

drivers are all install, I can see it in C/windows/usb 2.0 IrDA
No error - nothing when I connect it to guest os.

 

It seems to me that the problems are not related to Virtual Machine only http://forum.polar.fi/showthread.php?p=1371

 

Still a problem in P4 - BootCamp Works

I have upgraded to Parallel 4 on a new Macbook Air (128GB SSD NVidia chipset) and I have to report that the Polar USB 2 IrDA doesn't work any more.
Now it was working in P3, but I only had it for a few days before upgrading.

The red LED comes on solid, rather than pulsing. If I sleep from the Vista menu and then resume, then the LED starts pulsing, but unfortunately it still doesn't connect.

I am running Vista 32 Business from a Boot Camp partition.

If I boot via Boot Camp then it works fine, so I know it is a P4 issue.

I did report this as a ticket.

I have the same problem in that the Polar UBS IR device cannot be "installed" on the XP Pro Parallels "machine". The message I get is "Unable to connect the USB device to your virtual machine.

The device cannot be connected now. Please try again later."

Here is my setup:
Mac mini running OSX 10.6.6, Build 10J567, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB Ram
Parallels 6.0.11992, Revision 625164 (not using bootcamp)
Windows XP PRO, ver 2002 ,Service Pack 3
I downloaded the most recent XP drivers from Polar USA (as of Feb 17, 2011)
I have restarted the XP machine since the driver installation.

Since Parallels is a new installation for me this has never worked.

Any help would be appreciated
