What should I expect to see when I connect a digital camera to the USB
port? When I do this, !USBInfo correctly reports the device type (I
have tried two different camera types). However, I would have
expected to see an icon appear on the icon bar, so that I can acess it
as a disc drive. That doesn't happen.
The same applies to my memory card reader and USB Hub, and even
devices like USB memory sticks connected to the hub. I must be
missing something simple.
I get the appropriate beeps when i connect or disconnect any of these
devices.
