USB turntable not recognised

Can anyone help me please?

I used to be able to use Audacity to record on my MacBookPro (OS X 10.6.8) from a Sony USB turntable PS-LX300 USB. But now the USB connection is no longer recognized: not in Audacity, not in System Preferences>Sound. I have tried rescan, restart…stumped.

Can Soundflower be interfering? Other suggestions? Very grateful for a step-by-step guide from anyone who has worked through this. Thanks.

We can’t answer multiple people in the same topic, so I started a new topic for you.

If Mac does not see the turntable you can’t expect Audacity to do so.

Try following all the steps in the green box “Detecting USB and Firewire devices” here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_recording_troubleshooting.html#flatline . Pay particular attention to connecting the USB cable tightly at both ends, or trying another USB cable.
