UpdateI tried the 410 with my other computer and it runs fine, besides the waking up problems and the output level adjustment that doesn't work anymore(?)
Everything seems ok and I think I discover the conflict, I have a laCie d2 firewire 800 external drive where I keep my files, samples, etc. and it seems to have a working conflict with the firewire 410 and any audio program everytime I need to get a file from it. Using disk utility I have discovered that the permission cannot be repaired because "something excedes the limit of the folder" even if the empty space in the drive is more that 75%, I'll try a repair disk utility and see what happens.

Stoprunner, just in case, did you use Disk Utility from a bootup cd or from the Utilities folder while in OSX? A lot of "can't fix permissions" messages go away if you use the bootup cd when attempting to repair them.

I used the soft inside the system, But M-audio says that there is a recognized conflict when you have an external LaCie hard drive connected at the same time with the 410, they fight for bus priority, they told me they working on it and try to connect the drive thru the 410 to let it have priority over the drive, I did run the norton doctor, and everything seems fine with the drive. I've not try to connect the drive thru the 410 yet.

thanks

Last night, after upgrading to 10.3.4, I plugged in my FW410 and
opened the Midi Setup. Result was a kernel panic (crash)!

But I went to the M-Audio website downloaded the lastest driver
and everything appears to be working like a charm.

Opened Midi Setup several times in a row without any issues.

Apologies for the lengthy , and possibly confusing reply. The information may of use to some.

The following link should contain the info ,released by m-audio, but posted by a forum user on firewire connection issue.

http://www.macmusic.org/agora/forums/index...=ST&f=5&t=13996

With regard to that and the FW410, some users may be interested in my situation - I bought (april 2004) a FW410 after many months of reading on various sites and was reasonably satisfied when I first received the unit.

However, after upgrading to the latest (1.2.2 Build 1082 and also tried 1.2.1 build 1080) m-audio driver (G3 700MHz iBook, 640RAM, 10.3.3/4) the unit has now been returned, via the dealer I purchased from, to m-audio. Interestingly I sent the unit on 4th June and the link info above only appeared later in June - conincidental of course, must have been happening to more folk.

I could get the system to work by reinstalling the FW410_OSX_1.0.3_bld1068 driver - strange. M-Audio then suggested the return of the unit.

FYI below is the info I sent after having been instructed by m-audio to uninstall any pre-existing driver, search for any _other_ instances or _leftovers_ of m-audio preferences/plist files, and repair the permissions.

Please see following re getting the 410 to work using 1.2.2 driver version;

1.
uninstall existing m-audio driver
find all m-audio leftovers and delete
install new driver
repair perms
reboot without 410 attached
410 not recognised

2.
as 1 above
reboot with 410 attached
410 recognised but no cycling through indicator lights
recognised by OS X in Audio MIDI setup and M-Audio pref pane

3.
410 attached
switch off 410
remove fw cable
reattach cable and 410
lights cycle
410 recognised

4.
get some spurious connection failures etc switching off and
removing the fw cable but seems to be ok

5.
still have to try daisy chaining my ext fw drive as I have to use it for
audio even though M-AUDIO don't recommend this at all - man's gotta record any way he can...

6. Question?
What is recommended method of switching off/disconnecting the 410; can't be _put away_ like a fw disk?

Still waiting to hear anything on the unit of course.

Chrisk4, I did receive the same info as you about the reinstallation of the driver, and I did everything they suggested, though I needed to understand better the unplug-plug-unplug situation with the external drive I use. m-audio said it's ok not to unmount the driver everytime I shout down the system and I've been using the 410 now for a couple of weeks in this way, and (fingers crossed) it is working fine. What I've noticed is a strange feeling (electric feel) when touching my powerbook, since the 410 is bus power I think there must be something wrong in that area. something to look into m-audio!
