I was lamenting about the Model S not having a cd drive, so after reading about some USB mice working through the USB port, I thought it was a brilliant idea to try Apple's external USB SuperDrive which is powered through its USB connection. Alas, It does not even allow the cd to load, let alone play one. There is no appearance of the drive on the Media player Devices screen like when you insert a thumb drive into the USB slot.
Are there any computer experts out there that have some ideas about this? Does the OS have to recognize the device and tell it to power up?
Of course, I was also dreaming of DVDs playing on the center screen too. Rats!
