    Front USB connectors


    Curious, is there any options available to connect the front USB 2.0 (on a desktop), to a USB 3.0 PCIe card?
    Thus, giving the front USB ports, 3.0, versus 2.0.

    Thanks in advance for all your ideas...

    :)

    What is App Connector...?


    Right, you might not be a developer but at some point you might use a 3rd party UWP App.

    The UWP Skype App needs access to your camera and your microphone ... while not a 3rd party App, Skype might not have access to those without App Connector - not sure, just an example.

    The Google App (Ok Google) needs to access your microphone.

    Instead of everyone writing their own access, getting permissions, etc, their Apps ask the App Connector to service their requests.

    This approach is nothing new to Android users, when an Android App gets installed, it lists the permissions it requires. You either accept them or cancel the install. Most people accept and install the App. MS might be trying to get past that one install step by granting the permissions to the App Connector. The permissions are listed on the App page in the Store - nothing nefarious, just eliminating a step.

    Keep in mind - this is all conjecture on my part - no hard evidence did I find *Wink

    Issues With Windows Phone Connector for Mac

    edved,
    Could you try the following steps:

    • Remove the pinlock from your phone and restart the device.
    • Open the Keychain Access application and remove the login certificate called "Windows Phone 7 Connector" and reboot your Mac.
    Please respond with the outcome of these steps.

    Resnick, Can you also try the same steps.

    DisplayLink Demonstrates USB-C Docking Experience That "Just Works"

    I'm glad they finally cleared up that you could use USB 3.1 Type-A connector the same way you could use USB 3.1 Type-C connector. For a while they had me worried I could connect screen only to USB 3.1 Type-C port.

    Just when I thought we will have only two connectors (Type-A and Type-C) they brought up Type-B connector. Instead of Type-B they should use Type-A connector which is as robust as Type-B.
    Well done, you screwed up again and now we will have 3 USB connectors in the future instead of 2.
