Thank you!

I ran the installer and CHIRP is now successfully able to program my BF-F8.

The installer will uninstall other versions of the driver.

Christian,

I have used the driver from the Miklor site that was suggested earlier. Maybe we have a different MBP but a different programming cable for sure. My cable is unmarked and just black. If you want me to I can send a picture later on. I'm not at home right now.

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

Do I need to uninstall the Prolific driver before installing the generic version?

I just purchased a Baofeng BF-F8, and have also been unable to get CHIRP to download from the radio using a Baofeng branded cable.

Get the Generic driver package. You have to right click to install to get around the Mavericks install nanny that
won't let you double click to start the install on a package not signed by Apple.

Hi Marthijn,

the cable I use is this: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41iI3L%2BXoeL.jpg, at least from its appearance. 
Sure, send me your driver. I’ll try anything once. Do you know if I need to unload the current driver…and in case I have to, how I do it? Sorry for the noob questions.

Cheers,
Chris

Christian,

Ik using a UV-5R and I program it with the same driver. If you want me to I can send you my driver and see if that works for you. Are you using the Kenwood style cable?

Hi everybody,

I’d like to know, if anybody managed to program the UV-82 using chirp (or the daily build 20140428) on osx 10.9.2. 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:

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

When I try to "download from radio” I have four choices in a dropdown menu, each of which will give me an error message:

- /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port error: An error has occurred - Radio did not respond
- /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem error: An error has occurred - could not open port /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem: [Errno 16] Resource busy: '/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem'
- /dev/cu.NoZAP-PL2303-000013FA error: Radio did not respond
- /dev/cu.usbserial  error: Radio did not respond

Any ideas? I am using the USB programming cable from Baofeng, that came with the radio. 

btw. under windows7 (installed on the mbp) it works like a charm.

Cheers,
Chris
