Optimized USB data transfer for Mac. One of the announced new feature in version 2 of the MidJay update.
I'm disappointed! the update 2 of Midjay doesn't resolve the lack of recognizing the Midjay by my Apple G4 or iBook .
I cannot access my MidJay HD on the desktop of my Mac G4. However, “USB connected” appears on the MidJay display. The MJ-HD appears only in the listing of the HD connected in or with my Mac computer. But the expected Midjay folder doesn't appear on the screen of my Apple computer.
Why not? An ordinary USP-Pen (initialised for PC) will be recognized and displayed on all Apple- computers normally. The expensive MIDJAY -HD isn't accessable in no way on the Mac. So, data transfer (waves, patterns ...) between Mac and Midjay don't be available yet.
The folder with other HD of other instruments like Fantom Xa appears on the Mac-screen automatically. I use Mac OS 10.2 (Panther), and the same problem stay, starting Mac OS 10.3 (Jaguar) from an other partition: there is no folder with the MIDJAY-files to see.
The reason seems to be: the formatting / initialisation of the HD of the Midjay is a little different (PC formatted) from the Mac OS formatted HD ???? Why Ketron (MidJay-programming) confirms everytime - also in the version 2 - that the Mac OS X support is a fact??

Exchanging files between my Mac and Midjay is for me extremely important.

P-ART,

Let me look into this a little more and confirm.

Thanks,

AJ
