A USB zip drive needs no support, it's just a standard removable device to OS
X...No Iomega software has EVER been needed to use a Zip drive.
Okay- I am sitting here looking at three zip drive cds-- all from Iomega-
which have to be used. Without being able to mount them I cannot tell you
which one/ones
go with what but--
1) Iomega Version 1.0 for USB Application CD & user's manual
2) Iomega multi-language Mc version 2.8 Iomega ware
3) Zip Drive Iomega Solutions CD.
As an aside- when I bought the zip module for the Wallstreet, I had to search
the web for...the driver- or whatever it is/was called and then an updater- I
have it showing on its desktop- or
would if it would come back to life. So, none of the zip drives I have had
(a total of three of them) ever went straight to the USB port--had to install
some kind of software Or whatever you want to call it) before they were
recognized/installed by/to the computer.
The fourth cd sitting here says
4) VST USB Floppy Drive installation CD
Just for grins I will try re-installing the cds and see if anything happens
this (my fourth try!)
Still yet more thanks Sheryl
