argh argh argh Magic keyboard still dead, can't be seen on either new computer or old computer.

So, uh, anyone know about low-level USB diagnostics?

Sounds more like a driver issue, IMO.
Not that my years in tech support should have any bearing.

What's the platform? On XP, I've found UsbInfo helpful.

Is it not showing up at all, nothing, no new hardware beep? I'd check to see if the cable is bad. On numerous occasions I've inherited very nice USB hardware just because the cables are bad...
