Hello,
SIRi informs me that I need to unplug an accessory to reactivate my USB devices. But I don't know how to do it. Could someone help me? Thanks in advance.
iMac OS X 13

Configuration: Macintosh / Safari 11.0

Hello,

Only you know which accessories are connected to your Mac, we are not fortune tellers and your explanations are too limited, we don’t know which Mac you are talking about and what OS it is running.
Maybe you have an external hard drive connected via USB to a portable Mac, which is too power-hungry, or another device. In that case, just eject it (right-click on it/eject xyz) and then possibly disconnect it.

I sincerely apologize. Indeed, I hadn't noticed that I didn't mention I was working on an iMac OS 10-13. Furthermore, my Lacie backup drive was connected. After unplugging it, the alert disappeared, just as you predicted. Therefore, I sincerely thank you for your prompt response. I will be more attentive next time.

I connected my Pioneer DDJ-SR controller to my 12" Macbook and I got the same message; I just had to plug in my Macbook's charging cable at the same time for it to work.
