I purchased a new iMac to find the outlets on the back are for the newer connections and since I needed a standard USB 3.0 connection for most of my items I had to search for a fix. This connector goes into the thunderbolt slot and works great.

I thought this would transfer live data from an audio mixer to my computer but it only works for phone to computer transfers. Works well for it's intended purpose but is a little complicated and you could just use a normal type c cable

it falls a little short as it DOES NOT SUPPORT CarPlay between my iPhone 16 Pro USB-C and 2020 Honda Ridgeline USB-A/B dash interface. It does, however, allow me to use it as a charging cable. Since the cable DOES NOT support the CarPlay function, I CANNOT RECOMMEND IT! New cables that are supposed to work have been ordered!

This USB file transfer cable works as it should. It can be used for transferring files from an old PC to a new one, or as I have done from my PC to a HAM radio.

Well Made But Not Suited For Our Needs

This was not a great purchase for us. It was recommended as a replacement cord for an external hard drive, but did not work for that purpose. It does appear to be well made and the bonus convertor would have been very handy if it had worked for us. Unfortunately, we will be returning it.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We sincerely apologize that the cord did not meet your needs as a replacement for your external hard drive. It's disappointing to hear that it didn't work for its intended purpose, despite appearing well-made and having a handy bonus converter. Your feedback is important to us, and we will use it to improve our product recommendations and ensure better compatibility in the future. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to enhance our offerings.

While the cable does do its job, the software tool it installs does not always want to play nice with the Windows 11 operating system. The transfers go quickly and are a fairly smooth process but sometimes the files do not want to copy over, giving an error code about the directory being inaccessible even when you're accessing them while signed in as Administrator on both machines. Ultimately, we got the information transferred over using a combination of this cable and traditional USB flash drives.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Insignia cable. We're glad to hear that it generally performs well in transferring files quickly. However, we apologize for any inconvenience you encountered with the software tool and the occasional error messages. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we'll look into ways to improve the compatibility of the software with Windows 11. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please feel free to reach out to us.
