Settings for Recording into Garage Band

How do I hook my Yamaha P250 up to my MacBook? I want to be able to record in Garage Band, and I have the USB cable, but I don't know what settings the keyboard has to be on to transmit to the computer. Right now the computer doesn't recognise that anything is even plugged in.

Same problem
by: MD

I have the same problem trying to connect Clavinovas CVP to MacBook for my kids. Reading through the CVP manual I believe that I need to change settings on the CVP so that MacBook become the MIDI Host/Controller. The manual does not say exactly what setting to make, so if there is any one who has done in before please help. Otherwise, trial and error - how long is that going to take??

Same problem! So frustrating...
by: Greta

I've downloaded the most current drivers, messed with every setting I can find and I cannot get my MacBook OS 10 to hear my Yamaha P80 through the MIDI to USB cable I purchased from Yamaha.

Since the expectation I'd be able to do this was a factor in purchasing both the keyboard and the Mac, I'm really frustrated.
