Connecting over USB - Companion v1.5.4 - Zubersoft - 10-30-2013
If anyone has tried to connect the companion over USB and has run into issues, it's most likely because I forgot include one important fact: you have to download a device driver for your tablet in order for your PC to be able to talk to it. I have pushed out a new version of the companion with an updated help dialog that explains the steps necessary to get the USB connection going. For reference, there is a list of vendor links for USB drivers here: http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html#InstallingDriver
I wish connecting over USB was easier, but at least this is a one time thing - once you have it set up to connect over USB, it will work from there on out.
