before going back, try the simple fix

Let me upfront by saying I'm trying to extend an Apple USB-C to USB-A adapter into a manageable position with an iMac. I bought one of these for my m1 iMac. The first one didn't work so I asked for a replacement. When I got the second one, I tested it with the cable still rolled up and it worked; excellent, this time I got a good cable. I unwound the cable and checked again, but it didn't work. So I tested it on my wife's MacBook Pro and thought it might be an M1 issue. Of course it had an effect on her. I unplugged everything and plugged it back into my iMac and it worked. So I removed the Apple adapter from the USB-C extension cable and routed everything the way I wanted and tested again; it did not work. I was confused. I decided to try just unplugging the adapter from the USB extension cable, flipping it over and plugging it back in. Now it works! I've tried this several times and it only works on a specific connection. So if that doesn't work for you, whatever you're trying to extend with this cable, try flipping it.
