I am now a proud owner of a new DM41X. First impressions- Amazing product!

Working through the manual, I did have an issue though:
How to activate the USB disk on a Mac? I plugged into into the USB port on my Mac then SETUP / FILE> / 5. Activate USB Disk. But I don't see it mounted in the Finder. Perhaps operator error? I'm running macOS Catalina (10.15.7).

Thanks,
Steve

It could be your USB cable. The port is recessed kind of far into the case, and unless you're using a cable with an especially long connector, you might not be getting a good (or any) connection.

If you have a cable with a soft rubber shield on the plug, you can use a small knife to trim it back and allow the plug to go all the way in without the shield hitting the calculator's case.

Good call Dave, that was it. I tried another connector with a shorter jacket.

Thanks much for the diagnosis!
