This problem relates to the fact that once again Belkin haven't bothered to update the installation software for their great USB Hub.not happy! Ironically this is the same problem Belkin had with this device when it came out back in 2007, with earlier versions of Mac OSX V (10.5); it's a simple fix and yet they have basically stumbled again for Snow Leopard!

This page contains information about installing the latest Belkin F5U010-MAC driver downloads using the Belkin Driver Update Tool. Belkin F5U010-MAC drivers are tiny programs that enable your USB Hub hardware to communicate with your operating system software.

PROBLEM: Belkin Network USB Hub F5L009 gives an error message 'SXUPTP driver has not been installed' when you instal the software if you have Snow Leopard. Download 'SX Virtual link for Mac' V3.3.0 (Date ) from 2. You will have downloaded a zip file called 'sx-virtual link_mac330.zip'; unzipping this will give you a folder named 's-42a330'. Within that folder, navigate to SXVirtualLink>contained_packages>Driver>10.6 (the 10.6 refers to Snow Leopard OS); inside there is a file called 'Silex_kext' dated 5/11/2009 4. Skype for mac multiple callers video editor. Drag this file into the installation folder Utility>Connect>contained_packages; it will ask if you want to replace the older version of this file that exists there.

Now you can go through the normal installation process using the modified package, as per the manual, and hey presto, everything works magically!! [If for some reason you don't have the installation disk to start with, or have a problem sticking it on your desktop, it is available at as F5L009 Driver - Mac (version 1.5.0, OS compatibility: Mac OS 10.5; note there is no 10.6 compatible version - and THAT is the core of the problem with the installation disk in the first place). QUESTION: I know nothing about what the **** I am doing, and yet managed to figure this out from Googling and reading - why can't the brains at Belkin have done the same - it is a trivial exercise for them to have made a version 1.6.0 compatible with Snow Leopard. I am seriously unimpressed! Hi, many thanks for sharing this info. I followed the instrucctions and it worked. I could install the 1.5 driver in Snow Leopard, but I was having a problem disconnecting/connecting a shared printer.

I noted that I still have a problem after printing, the printer does not disconnect because its status is 'In Use'. I solved this issue by running this command in a terminal window: cancel -a - So I created a file named disconnect.command, changed its mode with chmod +x and added this text: #/bin/bash cancel -a - That solves my problem. Here is the link of the Belkin drivers: Regards, Oliver. I want to use this to enable the Belkin Hub on my Mac using Snow Leopard, but am not clear on the exact install steps. I've downloaded the file from Silex, opened the zip file and see the 10.6 version.
