Hi Phillip, Chris here. I don't know anything about Apples so I might be wrong... If you've only got Bluetooth in a Connect menu then doesn't that mean that no hardware (wired) ports are currently available for data Tx/Rx? Assuming that a USB connector is available for data Tx/Rx (and not just for charging) then it might need enabling via a setting before it will appear on the Connect menu. Alternatively, the Connect menu might be specific to Bluetooth only. Perhaps there is another menu for USB functions. 73, Chris

I have used CHIRP in the past with an older MacBook with no issues. Now I have the MacBook Pro 2018 with USB-C. -I have the Apple supplied FTDI drive & no others. -Only bluetooth shows up in the connect menu -I also am using a new Baofeng. I used to have the UV-5R but now I?m using a BF-F9HP which I understand is supposed to be a UV-5R variant. Do I select UV-5R or BF-F8 in the menu?

Can anyone provide a starting point?

Best regards,

Phillip

What type of adapter are you using to connect the cable?  I understand that the MacBook only has USB-C and all of the cables I know of use a USB-A connector.

Hi Phillip If you’re not seeing your cable in chirp you don’t have the correct driver for your cable installed. If you know the chip set in the cable search out the driver for it . I use chirp on my old iMac running lion OS and that’s old by today’s standard. Of course you are probably aware of the problem with prolific fake chips sets and to some Degree ftdi but as you said you have good quality cable. Try checking in the system profiler to see if the cable shows up there to get some info of its manufacturer.
