<p>Hi again.</p>
<p>Other thought. Are you running as a user with "permissions" to
use Serial ports? In some of the Linux world, that'd be, as a
member of the "Dialout" group. (I have no idea if Mac OS, though
based on BSD uses the same scheme.)</p>
<p>Do you have other USB/serial port adapter using equipment/gadgets
that do work OK, if so you could look into and find out how that
references attached USB<>RS232 devices.</p>
<p>Also, after some googling (Always your first port of call) I see
others with similar problems, who found that using an external USB
hub device (connected via the Thunderbolt main port) allowed all
sorts of "other" vendor kit to work, that just would not when
connected directly to the Mac. (Mac Mini's in those cases I
think.) Maybe the Serial adapters are asking for too much
power? Unlikely, but?<br>
</p>
<p>Lastly, you say you "Ran all the terminal codes." but you don't
actually list exactly what you tried, and what the results were.</p>
<p>I don't know how exactly, but I suspect that even Mac's have a
command line option, or even a GUI tool, to examine what hardware
you have connected to what port and tell you how it would appear
to an application, or tell you why it can't be used.<br>
</p>
<p>I see many Mac users attempting to use them for Ham Radio work.
Unless they are using pre-made commercial applications designed
and built for Mac's, they usually have lots of trouble. (There
are exceptions.)<br>
</p>
<p>You need to list the exact computer model, specification and
version you have, the exact OS version you're running, plus any
error or alert messages you get, from commands you try. Then,
someone else here who's also a Mac user will probably be able to
guide you through the maze and hopefully get it sorted.<br>

Ran all the terminal codes. Doesn?t see the port or cable on the Mac or on parallels tried 2 different BaoFeng cables. Odd they would both be bad. Hopefully it will work soon. Thanks</pre>
