The FTDI serial driver output buffer overflow bug has always been there. Now though, Apple has improved the OS X 10.9 Mavericks security by detecting the FFTDI serial driver output buffer overflow bug by shutting down the CHIRP app during upload.<div><br></div><div>The good news is that Apple now provides a new built-in serial driver with OS X 10.9 Mavericks. Apple’s OS X 10.9 Mavericks serial driver does indeed work flawlessly. The fix for your problem is as-simplle-as 1-2-3, as follows:</div><div><ol><li>Select <b>Radio</b> menu => <b>Download From Radio</b> menu item.</li><li>Within the <b>Radio</b> dialog (below), for the serial <b>Port</b> select Apple’s serial driver: /dev/cu.usbserial-A702RBLF </li><li>Then click the <b>OK</b> button.</li></ol></div><div><img apple-inline="yes" id="3C704559-7ACD-41EA-9E32-A33C9A63292D" height="269" width="310" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" src="cid:C16010F5-E910-4997-804C-6A7D75449933@hsd1.or.comcast.net."></div><div><br></div><div> <u>Note</u>:<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>you only have to select Apple’s serial port driver once.
