to Scott Brady: my cheap junk programming cable that refused to work had an ‘official’ looking Baofeng label on it. the 12 dollar special i bought from BaoTech or one of those real Baofeng vendors works flawlessly. dont be misled by labels

Hello,
I have been trying in vain to get my radio to talk with CHIRP on my Macbook Pro running 10.13.3. I have downloaded and installed the latest cable drivers and the latest CHIRP build. I have verified that the cable is recognized, but when I try to download from the radio, even with the correct radio (UV-5RV2+) and port (/dev/cu.usbserial), it simply hangs and says that the radio did not respond. All of the software works great on my PC, but I have been trying to get the Mac version to work for a long time with no luck. I have scanned countless forums and mail lists, but I have yet to find a solution. The cable I have is a Baofeng cable (it says Baofeng right on it), so I assume that this is not a cheap junk cable. I have attached the debug log below. Can anyone help please!!
