Hi all,

I have a new Boox Note Pro. When I connect it to my MacBook with the USB cable, it doesn't appear in Finder as a USB drive so I cannot transfer files to it (I know about the wifi transfer but that's an annoying solution). I have the USB mode set to "Transfer files to Windows or Mac (MTP)", I have also tried PTP and that doesn't work either. The Boox does charge from the USB and I see the charging starting and stopping when I connect and disconnect it. The OS detects the device correctly in System Information/Overview/System Report.

I've just updated my Boox to 2.2.1 firmware, and I have macOS 10.14.6.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Colin
