Solicitous & kovidgoyal

Thanks for the advice but VirtualBox for some reason is not recognizing any of the USB ports. When I select USB in VirtualBox the device does not show up in the list, actually, no devices show in the list.

Also, I have tried different ports, same results.

Everything works fine in the host environment, Mac OS X - so I'll continue to use calibre in OS X until I work out the problem with VirtualBox

Thanks for the help.
