Problem with all the usb and thunderbolts ports in mac studio 2025

I have a mac studio 2025 that i use for music production, sudenly i start to have problems to recognize my new ik multimedia mtm pro speakers, after several attemtings in weeks i made one of them recognized, but now all my solid state logic gear is not recognized, only the ssl 12+ audio interface is recognized by logic pro, but all the mac system dont recognize it and dont let me select it, is not a cable problem. Also i cant use anymore the ssluf1, the ssl uc1 and the ssl uf1, im quite sure is a problem with mac recognizing all my usd and thunderbolt ports, is any way that i can fix this? where i can see the devices connectd to each port?

A bad cable, device, adapter or hub can trip the port overload protection.

To many USB devices can also trip the port overload protection for 2 or more ports.

To reset the port overload protection, you need to disconnect the devices and restart the Mac Studio.

To see the external devices connected to the Mac Studio, go to Apple > About > System Report...

Then in the Hardware section, select USB for USB devices and Thunderbolt/USB4 for Thunderbolt devices.

Keep in mind that the System Report does not update on the fly when you add or remove devices.

To update the devices, you must close and re-open System Report each time you add or remove a device.
