[chirp_users] Chirp not communicating
Using Macbook Pro with OS 10.10.5 (Yosemite)Chirp 0.4.1Radio - Baofeng UV-5R I've been successful using older mac os' in communicating to this radio in the past I try to download the radio's program i get this error message "An error had occurredcould not open port /dev/cu.vernebrownscomputer-Blu:[Ermo 16]resource busy : '/dev/cu.vernebrownscomputer-Blu' Not sure what I'm doing wrong or forgot to do. did the cable check - it recognizes the type of chip in the cable as the debug instructions.

Two things come to mind...
1. It doesn't look like you have a compatible device driver installed. Depending on your programming cable, it should say something about "usbserial"
2. You should not be using the 16 month old CHIRP v0.4.1 stable build with a Baofeng radio. You should be using a recent daily build.
