Using Universal Serial Bus (USB) Devices
Your MacBook Pro comes with three USB 2.0 (d) ports, also referred to as high-speed
USB, which you can use to connect many types of external devices, including iPods,
printers, scanners, digital cameras, game pads, joysticks, keyboards, and floppy disk
drives. Your USB 2.0 ports are compatible with earlier USB devices. In most cases, you
can connect and disconnect a USB device while the computer is running. After you
connect the device, it is ready to use. You don’t need to restart or reconfigure your
computer.
