USB C to A adapter not working

Hi


Ive just got a new m1 macbook pro, I have a usb c to a adapter but the devices connected to my hub arent working, not power on sign of a connection with it? Do these adapters work with usb-A hubs or do i have to buy a new one?


Thanks

If the adapter is a simple passthrough, your problem is likely the hub.


Connect the devices directly to the Mac using only the hub to see if the adapter is the problem. If it's not, suspect the hub is either broken or incompatible. Some hubs are just not compatible with the latest Mac OS.
