Mac mini
Because the cable provided with the mic didn't reach through the wall to the computer, I used a coupler to connect it to another cable. And although the mic was getting power from the computer, something about connecting to another usb cable created a problem. When I took the mic to the computer and plugged in direct the mini recognized the device input. Now I have to find a 10' cable. So I think the problem is solved, although I still don't know exactly what was wrong with the coupler. It was recommended by the seller of the mic to solve the initial problem.

Usb mic require a driver from the manufactor to work if the manufactur does not have a driver for your os it will not work
Most USB mics do not require a driver from the manufacturer. I have Blue Yeti mic and my Logitech webcam with mic works fine without any additional drivers.
What does Audio Technica support say?
