Then I saw that Drobo dashboard 2.6.5 was available so I installed it. So now, I went to the Apple Support forum and discovered that I wasn’t alone! It took me hours reading all of the posts about this, there.įollowing that thread, I installed iTunes (from scratch) which appears to have fixed the missing file? So reading the Drobo knowledge base, I ran the Dashboard uninstaller which left me in even worse shape! Some AppleUSBEthernetHost.ktext file was then improperly installed or missing. My Drobo FireWire 800, 4-bay with my precious 12TB of data is served onto my internal network via a mid-2007 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo MacMini with 4 GB of RAM running the highest version of OSX that it is capable of running which is Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5.įoolishly, I permitted the firmware update and Drobo Dashboard 2.6.4 to install when I read a Drobo popup stating it was the latest update … big mistake!ĭashboard and none of my normal software liked this update and everything would either crash outright or hang after a few minutes and have to be force quit!
