WS 7.1.4 USB (iPhone) no longer connects in Windows XP guest

Hi,

This worked fine on the previous version of WS, but since upgrading, my Windows XP guest does not see my iPhone conected.

The iPhone appears in the VMWare status bar, and I can choose to connect or disconnect it, but Windows XP does not notice the device.

It's not a general USB problem, because a disk drive passes through and is notiiced by Win XP.

Host is Ubuntu 10.10, though that's not relevant because VMWare "sees" the USB device and says it's connecting it to the guest.

Any ideas?

regards,

RR

For other's information...

The Apple Mobile USB Driver would not start.

I told Windows to update it, and now it works.

Hope that helps.
