Hello,
I’m new to the forum, and have tried to respect everyone’s time by searching the threads and stickies as much as I can. Hopefully, I didn’t miss a thread.
I’m having problems getting the IF-FW/DM card recognized by my Mac.
When I first installed it (on Snow Leopard), loaded the driver (from the Tascam site) it came up as OK and READY. Then it seemed to be dropping in and out. Basically seemed like the Mac can’t hold the connection to the card.
I’ve been reading through the threads on the Forum and have since upgraded to Maverick and the beta driver (1.30f6) – nothing. In the system profile under fire wire I have Built in Hub – and the card is coming up as an Unknown Device.
IF-FWDM Control Panel – Status: No Device Found.
Clock set to internal | 44.1 (when I switch to 48k- 1394 reports FS Mismatch) – which I am assuming is saying that my mac is still somehow set to 44.1. However, with the card not being recognized, I’m not sure why it’s saying that.
Is it possible that I have a bad 400/800 cable? It was originally working and it’s showing up as an unknown device in the system … so it would make me think it is a software/config/driver issue. That is the only thing left I can think of.
I have new cables on their way.
Is that the next logical step or am I missing something obvious?
Thank you, this is a great forum!
