Chuck,
Here's my suggestions:
Review: http://www.miklor.com/uv5r/UV5R-Drivers.html
This should help with the Driver issues.
The Yahoo Group UV5R http://groups.yahoo.com/group/baofeng_uv5r/
has over 5,000 members that have tackled every issue the UV5R can throw at you.
I'd give them as much info as possible: http://www.miklor.com/uv5r/#assist
They would probably be best to handle the hardware side and resolve in a manner of minutes.
Hope this helps.
Enjoy your new toy.

When looking at your frequencies. There should be a line that says "Memory
Range 1 to xx. change the xx to 128 and press the go button.

Subject: [chirp_users] Problem reading UHF data from radio using a Mac
Date: Wed, 26 Dec 2012 11:38:42 -0500
I am a new user of Chirp so I'm still learning my way around. I have been
able to read from my radio, a Wouxum� KG-UV3D, the 2m/440 version. I
can upload the 2m data from the radio but not the 440. I have set Chirp to
read all 128 memories, but only the 38 2m frequencies show up. Am I doing
something wrong or is this a limitation of the software?
I am using a Mac running OS X 10.6.8; the Mac OS X version of Chirp Version
0.2.3 (GTK 2.24.10, PyGTK 2.22.0, and Python 2.7.2). The cable is a Wouxun
WXUSB USB programming cable.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Ed,
KK4LAL

I'll try your suggestions. Thanks.

As an FYI, many of the "live" distributions by default use a ram disk overlay that allows files to be written, enabling most things to work as they do on a regular install. However since it is nay written to RAM, the changes only stick around until you reboot.
When creating a bootable USB thumb drive using the utility mentioned, you get the option of creating an area on the thumb drive to save changes. This space is then automatically used instead of the ram disk and you'll be able to see your changes across reboots.
Note: some of the thumb drive installation utilities only give you the option of creating a persistent storage area if you agree to erase the drive and have enough space.
Hope.this helps,
--Rob
