I am unable to connect my Quest 3 to the Meta Quest Developer Hub. I have checked and the Quest 3 was in Developer Mode. and my Quest 3 is connected to my iMac via a USB cable.
i could fix the problem by using a different usb port on my mac pro. though all the ports should be capabale of usb c, for some reason switching to another one fixed my issue.
Hey there, @ian.sloman. We know getting started within the Developer Hub is exciting, so we'd love to make sure you're all set to continue exploring new ideas within VR. Just to confirm, we do want to make sure the following steps have been completed when getting things set up:
Put on the Meta Quest headset and sign into the developer account you want to use for development.
On the headset, go to Settings > System > Developer, and then turn on the USB Connection Dialog option. (Alternatively, you can open the Meta Quest Mobile App, select the headset from the list, and then turn on the Developer Mode option See Set Up Development Environment and Headset for information on the Oculus mobile app.
Connect the headset to the computer using a USB-C cable and put on the headset again.
Click Allow when prompted to allow access to data.
Connect your headset to the computer using a USB-C cable and wear the headset.
Accept Allow USB Debugging and Always allow from this computer when prompted on the headset.
Open MQDH.
On the MQDH navigation pane, choose Device Manager. All the devices you have set up are displayed in the main pane. Each device is shown with its status, which includes the device ID and connection status. The active device shows the green Active designator.
Once confirmed, let's also test how your headset connects to the PCVR app. From there, we'll continue working to get you connected!

i cant connect either. when i connect my usb c cable (the original one from meta) to my headset, a beeper sounds a couple of times and the headset stays blank and i cant do anything anymore. when i switch it to standby mode and back on a doalogue tells me "there is dust in the usb port" which isnt true.

Since updating MQDH to version 5.0.0, I've been experiencing the same issue. I tried deleting that version and reverting, but the problem persists - it just won't recognize Quest 3. I've followed all your suggestions and double-checked everything, but nothing seems to work 😞
