Thanks to everyone who provided advice. Much appreciated. Eric: regarding your comment that my problem with the Verbatim Store 'n' Go not working with the usb hub might have something to do with my keyboard on my G4, does the fact the device worked when plugged directly into the computer rule out this keyboard problem that you mentioned or not? I have returned the Store 'n' Go and have not bought another device yet. Please advise. Thanks. Leith PS: I sent this to the list around 10:40A this morning, but it still hadn't shown up in my inbox by 1P, so I thought I'd send again. Sorry if it comes through twice. >Delivered-To: leithriver7@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >>From muglo-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Fri Jun 30 17:34:20 2006 >Delivered-To: porchlight.ca-leithriver7@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >X-Original-To: muglo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Delivered-To: muglo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Date: Fri, 30 Jun 2006 13:35:30 -0400 >To: muglo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >From: Leith Peterson <leithriver7@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> >Subject: [muglo] Re: Removeable media devices for 10.3.9 >X-porchlight-MailScanner-Information: Please contact the ISP for >more information >X-porchlight-MailScanner: Found to be clean >X-archive-position: 7343 >X-ecartis-version: Ecartis v1.0.0 >Sender: muglo-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >X-original-sender: leithriver7@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >Reply-to: muglo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > >Thanks Tee and Eric: > >Eric: I tried plugging it directly into the computer and it did >work.
