I have an "expensive" hub, it didn't work with Forma. I used to connect to Mac through USB-A port on monitor or through cheap hub. Later I installed NickelMenu with an option to run "force_usb_connection". With this option i'm able to connect with "expensive" hub too. I connect Forma to it, Mac doesn't recognize it, nothing on Forma itself. Then I run "force_usb_connection" through NickelMenu, it immediately shows "Computer detected" and connects. So connection is there, but for some reason it's not showing on Mac or Forma until I trigger it through menu.

I didn’t know about that feature! Thanks for bringing it to my attention. That’ll be useful for when I’m managing sideloaded books. I won’t have to physically unplug and replug the cable into the Kobo.
