Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I am running 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) on a 2006 mini, MA607XX/A (1.66 GHz, 1.25 GB 667 MHz ram) and just started getting an error message that "AppleUSBHost,kext" was improperly installed and can not be used, contact supplier, My only recent software upgrades have been Adobe Flash Player 13.0.0.259 about a week before problem stated. Any Ideas? TIA David
