[chirp_users] Programing a Baofeng UV-82 with Chirp on osx 10.9.2

[Christian Schwarz]

I would ask the same question. I did install the driver that was linked by Milton. I did not have to do a right click to install but I did it anyway. The system report however displays the same information as before:

USB-Serial Controller:

  Product ID:	0x2303
  Vendor ID:	0x067b  (Prolific Technology, Inc.)
  Version:	 3.00
  Speed:	Up to 12 Mb/sec
  Manufacturer:	Prolific Technology Inc.
  Location ID:	0xfa130000 / 6
  Current Available (mA):	500
  Current Required (mA):	100

The install routine gave me the message that everything was installed just fine and I restarted the machine before creating the system report. Results in Chirp remain the same exactly. I don’t know if this has anything to tell me, but the driver I downloaded only specifies up to osx 10.8. 

Cheers
Chris

btw. does one see his own postings in the email list? I replied once, but am not sure I got through. I just hit the reply button in mail.app.

thx

I read that one might or might not have to disable apple’s own driver for FTDI chipset. I’ve been googleing the topic for a few days now and have not found a way to make it work on my mbp. The system report will tell me that a USB-Serial Controller is there:
