Common misunderstandings – After Sales cases are:

• Your client added File Lock (DPUS) to their order and now comes back saying: “The USB drives are empty”.

Common mistake: Sales Account Manager hasn’t explained the 2 partitions to the client properly.

Your client will now see and understand their data is in the CD-Drive partition. Also see Product Knowledge -> Product Knowledge Services

• Your client purchased a model with the small UDP Chip e.g. Clip, Wafer, Ellipse…

Now they telling you the drives don’t work.

Solution: Make your client aware, they might accidentally plugged in the drive the other way around (plastic side) so their PC/MAC won’t recognize it.

• Your client added File Lock (DPUS) with 2.5GB to their order and now comes back saying: “The USB drives don’t work on Mac”.

Common mistake: Sales Account Manager hasn’t asked the client which Operating Systems their clients are using.

Solution: If your client preloads more than 2.2GB onto the locked partition the drives won’t work on Mac OS. You need to ask your client if it’s ok for them if the drives are just working on PCs or if they would like to just switch to normal Data preload, hence the data will work on all Operating Systems.

Explanation: Apple designed CD-Rom drives to have a maximum capacity of 2.2GB. Also see Product Knowledge -> Product Knowledge Services

• Your client added Auto Run to their order and now comes back saying: “The Auto Run function doesn’t work”.

Common mistake: Sales Account Manager hasn’t asked the client which Operating System is used.

Solution: Make sure you double-check the compatibility of the Auto Run function and your clients Operating System.
