I need more USB ports on my iMac
I'm running into two issues.
When I purchase USB hubs, they only have a few ports, like 4. So, I'm having to use two or three hubs. That makes a mess behind my computer and it's a pain. Is the reason USB hubs only have a few ports because they don't work well when you have more?
The second issue is that some things don't work when I use the USB hub. Do you think it's because the device may need a version other than the hub version (meaning USB 2 vs. UBS 3)? Do devices usually specifically work on USB 2 or USB 3 and not both?
I bought my iMac in January 2015 from an Apple Store.
Thank you in advance for any help!
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
