You have no cable driver installed that is recognized, If your cable has a Prolific 2303 chip go here: http://changux.co/osx-installer-to-pl2303-serial-usb-on-osx-lio/ and download the installer. It's in spanish but if you've installed from a pkg installer you will recognize the ritual. Once installed then select that port in Chirp, then the vendor and the radio. Contact me off list if you need additional help.

Users, I'm a complete newbie to Ham and Chirp. Fairly savvy wrt to software.
This is the first time connecting UV-5R to Mac. Chirp starts fine and I do have Python installed.
When starting up Chirp, debug.log spits out...
Icon /usr/share/pixmaps/chirp.png not found Initialized MacOS support /Applications/chirp-0.3.1.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/chirp/chirpw:128: PangoWarning: error opening config file '../Resources/etc/pango/pangorc': No such file or directory
Two items from that output... - I don't see a chirp.png in the /Applications/chirp-0.3.1.app tree. - I don't see a pangorc in the /Applications/chirp-0.3.1.app tree.
I'm attempting to "Download from radio", I try the four port selections. I do have the USB cable plugged in and radio on. Also...
bash-3.2# pwd /dev bash-3.2# ls cu.Bluetooth-* cu.Bluetooth-Modemcu.Bluetooth-Serial-1 cu.Bluetooth-PDA-Synccu.Bluetooth-Serial-2
I do have the vendor and model selected properly. It attempts to clone and then I see... "An error has occurred" "Radio did not respond". From debug.log I see...
User selected Baofeng UV-5R on port /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Serial-1 Clone thread started Sending Magic: 000: 50 bb ff 01 25 98 4d 00 P...%.M.
Radio did not respond Sending Magic: 000: 50 bb ff 20 12 07 25 00 P.....%.
Radio did not respond -- Exception: -- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Applications/chirp-0.3.1.app/Contents/Resources/chirp/chirpui/clone.py", line 225, in run self.__radio.sync_in() File "/Applications/chirp-0.3.1.app/Contents/Resources/chirp/chirp/uv5r.py", line 456, in sync_in self._mmap = _do_download(self) File "/Applications/chirp-0.3.1.app/Contents/Resources/chirp/chirp/uv5r.py", line 345, in _do_download data = _ident_radio(radio) File "/Applications/chirp-0.3.1.app/Contents/Resources/chirp/chirp/uv5r.py", line 341, in _ident_radio raise error RadioError: Radio did not respond ------ Clone failed: Radio did not respond Clone thread ended --- Exception Dialog: Radio did not respond --- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Applications/chirp-0.3.1.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/chirp/chirpw", line 71, in <module> langs += os.getenv("LANG").split(":") AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'
Any thoughts for a newbie? A video guide to watch for the first time?
Thanks!
