Andy, I am at work so need to hurry up with my comment and can't even read the answers already given: What I did, in short: * unplug all USB devices * do the whole "usual" practices of resetting the Mac. This includes what was formerly known as resetting pram (different name since Intel switch, same procedure: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379) as well as shutting down the Mac, removing the power cable, wait a minute (that resets yet another thing I can't remember now, lol), replug power cable, restart Mac, replug USB devices. * say goodbye to your existing X-Plane preferences, delete or archive them * restart the Mac * re-configure your X-Plane. I did all that in serveral combinations - in effect my USB stuff is basically plugged to my computer like before, also a big hub included, and the hub in the Saitek yoke itself. BUT X-Plane recognized the stuff on the different postitions as shown in the screenshots now. ok, looked fine and did work yesterday evening. HOWEVER (!!!). While switching planes and checking all things out, it happened once that PROP and MIXTURE were NOT restored but completely lost in all planes. This was solved by just assigning them again while having loaded another plane, not the BAE.
