Each port has it's own power button. Make sure it is on for the port you are using. You can also try a different port on there.

I believe the newer phones may require more power, you may need to unplug some other devices that are also drawing power. Also, plugging in the adapter and into a computer will give you added power.

if you have a smart things hub, put the hub into exclusion mode and try to re include it. That will wipe its previos paring.

Right. This is a powered hub that is only connected to the MBP or what ever other computer via thunderbolt. It doesn't send power for eh computer itself. Some USB devices such as the SuperDrive and some hard drives are not able to get enough power from the hub, and must be plugged in directly to the MBP.. Overall though I am thankful for this hub and it works very well.

This was a gift i purchased for someone so I'm not the user. From what i have read as long as the USB hub comes with a USB cable you should be able to plug it into the charger. The cable that comes with the charger is for the iPhone 5 and is removable. The port on the charger is universal so you should be able to plug in any USB cable and charge a device.

ok it's plugged into my iPhone 6 now how do you get the speakers to turn on? I see the music is playing but nothing from the speakers. Not the best directions.

I'd comtact the seller and get a refund or get them to give another device. Could be defective. Not sure but mine works. Could try unplugging and retrying. Or if your not using the correct power adapter to use that. Not much details on how you have it hooked up. Main thing here is to contact seller to find the best solution.

Dear Annabelle, Unfortunately, our Premium 4 Port USB Hub is not powered, and will not power an external Superdrive (which is the case with most USB hubs) as they require over 500mA. The total amount of power going to the hub may not exceed 500mA. If you have any other questions or concerns please let us know. Thank you,Satechi Technical Support

When I plug it, it says it's not "certified" and will not work reliably with my iPhone. It worked for maybe a week. .

No. If you are having problems you should try removing all devices from the hub. Then unplug the hub from the computer and shut down the computer. Turn back on and reconnect one device at a time. Mine has problems from time to time. Right now it is unplugged because I was having some issues with it.

The connector supplied is not the lighting however I bought mine a year ago so they may have upgraded or have one. Or there may be a apple 30 pin to lightning adapter. Call apple.

Check the power port and make sure it is not bent and that the power plug wires are not torn, try the adapter for the mobile plug.

This just arrived, and when I plug in my 4S it says "This accessory is not supported by iPhone." Am I doing something wrong? The radio works through the speakers, but not my iPhone. Help!

Okay, so I have a powered usb hub, but my computer must be on for this to work. So... I tried out my iPad wall charger - -worked, but fan got a bit noisy so I did some investigating. A normal computer USB puts out much less current than an iPad adapter. The iPhone adapter is closer to the computer output and should be okay. Since there is no way for the fan to regulate how much current is being fed to it, it could possibly burn out with the higher amperage (I am guessing). The iPhone charger is much less and more than adequate for this fan, since it does run well on the USB port alone. Best use - connect to computer. Second best, a phone charger that is close to the rating on the USB port. Okay, so I have a powered usb hub, but my computer must be on for this to work. So...

The power cord would not charge the device....it would show that it's connected but it wasn't charging the device. I tried charging it overnight but was still not charging!!!

Mine is on all the time.The only issue I have is not with the hub, but with Windows. Sometimes it's not loaded correctly by the OS and requires unplugging/replugging to get it recognised property. It's a great product.

Had a little trouble pulling out the cord for the Iphone too. Just tug a little harder, it get's easier the more times you plug it in.

The hub shouldn't need a driver, could it be something plugged into the Hub it's not recognizing?
