M-Audio Keystation 49e not recognised

I am using an M-Audio keystation 49e with garage band and for some reason, I cant get it to be recognized as an input device. What am I doing wrong? The blue light is on but when I go to system profiler, I dont see it on the USB list. Help!!!

This has happened to me twice. Both times it was a bad USB cable.

Hi there, I am having a similar problem, some instruments work and others don't. For example, Sound Effects -> Nature Sounds no longer works, it did work, my three year old was playing with it and now it no longer works at all. I thought a change would have had an effect to all instruments and not just one particular one... any idea why it would stop working? I've quit and restarted GB, restarted the computer, only thing I haven't done is reinstall GB... Thanks, RM

I may be incorrect (and if so I apologize), but some sounds appear to be assigned to a "geographical" location on midi keyboards... so if certain sounds aren't working, you may want to try switching up the octave settings (my M-Audio 49i has physical buttons to change this) and at times I've had some success...

...but still nothing that would get my organ sounds to work 😟
