jcgsbg 3 Posted November 27, 2017 Hi-- I recently purchased a refurb UX2 and wanted to install it on my new MacBook Pro i7 2.5/16/512, but there is no CD/DVD drive for the software install and the only ports are Thunderbolt (USB-C). Any advice on getting my UX2 up & running with this computer would be greatly appreciated!Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fflbrgst 1,852 Posted November 27, 2017 The software (drivers) are easy, once you have the UX2 connected and registered with Line 6, as you can download them. The bigger problem you have is only having a Thunderbolt port - you'll need to get an adapter (I assume someone makes one) that is USB2 to Thunderbolt, 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jcgsbg 3 Posted November 27, 2017 Thanks for the quick response. Adapters are no problem, they’re abundant. Hope to be able to get to it tonight! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jcgsbg 3 Posted November 29, 2017 I got a USB to USB-C adapter, DL'd & installed PodFarm, Monkey, License Manager & Updater, but it will not recognize or allow me to license or register PodFarm. Please don't tell me that Pod farm is an extra purchase not included with Pod Studio UX2. That would be beyond belief, considering that the packaging for PodStudio UX2 says "includes PodFarm, 23 guitar & bass amp models, 29 cab models, 6 mic pre amp models'. Please tell me they aren't expecting me to shell out another couple hundred bucks for PodFarm... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz_Ham 22 Posted November 29, 2017 Have you created an account on line6.com and registered your device to your account? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jcgsbg 3 Posted November 29, 2017 I have an account, after installing, it will not let me register the device as the license manager does not see it. It is there, in my Applications/Line 6 folder, but not seen by the License manager & thus not registered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jcgsbg 3 Posted November 29, 2017 OK--turns out there is an issue with the MacOS High Sierra System Preferences/Security & Privacy that prevented the drivers from downloading despite having the setting set to allow DLs from Apple AND other developers, so I didn't have the drivers. There was a message at the bottom of that preference pane indicating that "Software from Line 6 was not installed", which can be over-ridden manually. Thanks to Line 6 for terrific support! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
