Unable to use Belkin USB-C Multimedia Hub F4U092

This response is very poor. How can you say this when the internet is exploding with Ventura issues?! Apple has even acknowledged the issue. When will the fix come from apple so we can move forward. It's very discouraging when sloppy work impacts our livelihood!

I am sorry for your having this frustrating experience. Perhaps the following comments will help you.

• I don't think the Ventura is the problem. It is an excellent operating system.
• Is the Belkin unit a powered unit? This is critically important as many external devices may not function when connected to an unpowered hub.
• Have you tried connecting the hub to another computer with the same OS to see if it functions there?
• I have an older powered Belkin hub which works just fine with Ventura.

You're most welcome. Sometimes we never know for sure exactly what the problem was.

I am truly sorry If I upset you. The was not my intention. I was merely attempting to explain things as I see them. I respect your disagreement with what I said.

Well, as I said, non-power units are iffy. Personally I would never use a non-powered hub. One thing you might try is to restart your computer in the Safe Mode. Press the Shift key on restart. Allow up to five minutes as this can take some time while the Mac's OS is repairing itself and cleaning its caches. Then see if the hub is recognized. Then restart and look again. If this does not work, all I can suggest is to replace the Belkin unit with a powered one.

it is important to know that Apple does not "fix issues" with other vendor products. They, like Microsoft, issue specifications prior to an OS release which other vendors must conform to, so any fixes must come from said vendors. Yes, on occasion Apple will have some problem with an OS and it will be fixed. Prior to any OS update or upgrade, every OS is released to a group of volunteers who install it and test it. (I have been one of them.) So, all I can say is that Ventura is currently working well for most of us, including me. Maybe, just maybe, the problem with the Belkin hub was due to a Belkin problem.

Hi Ronasara,

it’s important for Apple support to read the entirety of a post. The product in question works perfectly with many different Apple operating systems but does not work with Ventura. Your lack of humility in this is upsetting. Who at Apple can we talk with that can help explain or resolve our situation. You are impacting my business with this attitude and approach.
