![]() MacBook owners have run into connectivity problems with all kinds of devices that require a USB-A connection, including mice, keyboards, and other accessories. There are many other similar complaints about disconnection and freezing issues when using USB 2.0 accessories that connect to a Mac through a hub, though there seems to be no clear pattern as to which accessories are affected or when the issue occurs, making it difficult to determine what could be causing the disconnects. It seems to be happening more often when at least two usb devices are connected at the same time. The issue happens at random moments and there are no steps to reproduce it. When the issue occurs, the mouse and the USB audio interface stop working, but the HDMI connection continues to work without issues, each time. I'm connecting a few things in the hub - HDMI for an an external monitor, USB audio interface (powered by the mac) and a mouse. This happened with two different USB-C hubs (both expensive, one of them is Satechi which was recommended in many threads), so I am leaning towards ruling out the hubs being at fault. Affected customers appear to be seeing devices connected to the Mac randomly disconnect, as explained below by a MacRumors reader.Īt random times the USB devices connected to the mac though a usb-c hub would just lose connection and stop working all at the same time. There are a number of complaints about the issue on the MacRumors forums, Reddit, and the Apple Support Communities. MacBook Air and MacBook Pro owners who have one of the new 13-inch 2020 models released earlier this year appear to be experiencing problems with USB 2.0 accessories that connect to their machines though a hub or adapter.
