Akai MPK249 midi keyboard

I cant get my Akai MPK249 to be recognized by my computer at all. Im uprgrading from a MPKminiMKII midi keyboard and that works just fine. I’m using Logic Pro x. Everything’s updated. I’ve been in the depths of the internet. Can’t find an answer.

Audio MIDI setup not recognising my Miditech Audiolink III audio interface (does not require driver) I recently purchased the Audiolink III and bought a 5 pin midi cable to 3 pin xlr to connect my keyboard with midi, the interface seems to recognise that there is a connection because the light is on and responds to me pushing keys down on the keyboard. However, on my Mac’s Audio Midi setup it does not recognise the keyboard, does the Audiolink III not work with midi. My Mac recognises the audio interface as seen below, but when I go to the Midi studio its blank. Any suggestions to get my keyboard to work on Logic Pro X would be great thanks

Midi Keyboard not working with 16 inch MacbookPro Hi! I know the issue already came up but noone seems to have found a solution. I bought a AKAI MPK 261 Midi Keyboard and I just can‘t get it to work with my 16 inch MBP... and I work as a technician in pro broadcasting :D Using many different cables, external power etc. it wont be recognized in the Midi Studio or wherever, whereas it works like a charme when I plug it into my 27inch iMac and every other computer (but need to use it with the MPB only) Any tips? :)
