Compatability Issues With Latest Version of DAQmx

[mech_eng_87]

This one has got me stumped, so I thought I would go to the message boards.

I am running some equipment that returns a voltage thru a NI USB-6361. The company that has hired me was using an older version of LabView (I cannot tell you which one, 2012 I think). Further, they are using DAQmx 9.5.5, which came with the USB-6361. My problem is getting my computer to A)recongnize the USB and B)still keep all my DAQmx VI Icons when I am programming. If I roll back the DAQmx software ti 9.5.5, I lose my Icons, but if I stay with DAQmx 9.9 I can see the USB in MAX, but that is it. In MAX I cannot create a task or anything. It shows it as "Not present"  I am using LabView 2013, and I have done everything I can think of. Has anyone had this problem? How do I fix it. I thought DAQmx 9.9 was supposed to be compatable with this device. Thanks in advance for the help.

Have a look at this:

Compatibility LabVIEW & DAQmx

If you are using LabVIEW 2013 then you need to have at least DAQmx 9.7.5.

EDIT: And yes, DAQmx 9.9 should be compatible with your USB 6361

Well that explains it. I guess I need to figure out why I cannot access the USB 6361. Thanks for the help.
