Yeah, I know there are USB ports on the front… but using the rear USB port ensures you always have enough USB bandwidth for the sensor to work! Now remember, you will need to have that adapter plugged into a power outlet, so make sure you have one free. With the Original Xbox 360, you simply plug the sensor into the adapter, the power adapter into a power socket and the USB portion of the adapter into the rear USB port on your console. In your Kinect for Xbox 360 packaging you will find a power cord/USB adapter cable.

Today Microsoft launched a 49.99 adapter that will. Can anyone help a girl out, and point me in the right direction on getting the kinect to work on MacOS Big Sur 11.2.

If you have an Original Xbox 360, you will have one extra step. Xbox One owners with a Kinect could soon get more use out of Microsofts powerful camera assuming those same people are also Windows users. Rookie mistake-I went and bought a kinect 360 and an adapter only to realise I can't use it on a mac. If you have the New Xbox 360 (Slim) it’s super easy, on the back of your console you will see a port called “Aux” that looks like a USB port but has a flattened out corner, just plug your sensor into that and you will be on your way! If you purchased Kinect separately from your Xbox 360 S, you will need to remove the Y-Cable power adaptor to connect the sensor to the AUX port.
