After upgrading from Panther to Tiger, my US-122 stopped functioning. The USB light does not go on, and my computer does not find the US-122. I called up Tascam support; after being on hold for about an hour, they had me delete all US122 files, restart my computer, and re-install the 323 software. No luck. Tascam support told me that the problem must be with my computer running under Tiger, since (a) They have had no problems running under Tiger, and (b) the unit was working on my son's iBook running under Panther.
To verify that the problem was my computer, I upgraded my son's iBook to Tiger. However, once I installed Tiger on my son's laptop, the unit stopped functioning, and now the USB light does not go on when attached to my son's machine. So just to triple check, I installed the 323 software on my daughter's iBook, which is still running Panther. The USB light went on immediately!
Tascam support insists that there are no problems running under Tiger, yet I have reproduced the problem on two computers. All suggestions are welcome, but yes, I've tried switching cables, USB ports, etc, etc. If it matters, my computer is a four year old G4 (Silver CD Doors) running 10.4.1 and my son's laptop is a 4 year old G3 iBook Dual USB running vanilla 10.4.
Am I the only person experiencing this problem? I'm hoping to keep this unit, since it has been performing fine for a year and a half. But if it doesn't run under Tiger, then I shall have to replace it (and it won't be a Tascam product). Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi,
I'm in the same situation. I run a production lab in the AV Center of our school.
I just upgraded two one year old G5 PowerMacs to Tiger and our US-122's have stopped functioning. I now have students who are no longer able to use these two DAW's.
I just happen to be in the process of setting up two new workstations for our students. I was going to purchase two additional US-122's but the serious lack of support from Tascam on this issue has changed that. I will not be purchasing any Tascam products for those workstations (or for any other applications in our AV Center).
A company that doesn't support its customers will soon find that its customers don't support it!

To Mr. K, Wonderfully said, have you sent this to tascam's 122 or 224 Forum? Please do. I sent an email to tech about a week ago; I am still awaiting a response, an apology, anything... To 2l82run, has tascam actually said anything, to anyone?
