Both my USB Macally keyboards stoped working on my Mac 2 days ago, I am not sure if this was a update, I tried all 3 USB ports, restarted my Mac several times. Running macOS Sonoma 14.3. My MacBook Air 2023 is only a few months old. First it only did it on the one docket and now it is also doing it on my secon one.
MacBook Air 15″, macOS 14.3
How exactly are you connecting? It seems that there is a dock between the mac and keyboard - you mentioned 3 USB ports, the Air has only 2.
Do other devices connected to the same dock work?
If possible, I'd try connecting the keyboard directly to your mac (using only a small USB-C to USB-A adapter if necessary).
Hi Luis, I have an 11 In 1 USB Dock Hub Adapter Type C BYL-2003, where my server, keyboard, and power cable are connected. I see now the one 'Moov 12-in-1 Multiport Hub Adapter' is working now with the keyboard again. But the 11 In 1 USB Dock Hub Adapter Type C BYL-2003 is not, the USB ports are working, I tested them.
I may be having a similar issue. Recently upgraded to a Mac Studio and Viewsonic monitor and bought a new Sabrent 10–port USB 3.0 Hub and already had an old Sabrent USB hub on my Mac where my Macally keyboard and mouse were connected. When I added the new hub the mouse and keyboard stopped reacting. The keyboard’s CAPs light would start flashing. I had to force a shutdown and later ran Disk Utility in recovery mode since the Mac after startup was jumpy. The hard hubs work fine when only one is linked to the Mac. From what I’m seeing on this thread, it could either be a system or hardware issue. My solve is trying to find a new USB hub with off and on buttons that are compatible with my setup. Any ideas?
My Macally keyboard is working fine directly connected to my Mac Studio and one connected directly to a port on my iMac. No hub. Running 14.3.1
