[chirp_users] new user, unable to connect to FT-7800 on a MAC
Hello, I am new user to CHIRP. I am using CHIRP 0.3.1 on a Macbook PRO with the latest version of Mt Lion. I got the USB cable from Valley and i am unable to get the radio to connect. I have tried all the suggestions on the WIK (drivers from RT, and the ones from prolific) and none have worked. When i select the ports there are no ports other then bluetooth modem and bluetooth PDF sync.
Thank you very much / Rob

This indicates you have not installed the driver that goes with your cable. Ask the seller if a driver disk was not shipped with the cable. Installing drivers shotgun style hoping one will go with your cable is not an effective strategy.

What driver are you using for the cloning cable? Read below. What radio are you using? http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/MacOS_Tips
