Cannot see USB port
Posted: Mon Nov 20, 2017 5:11 am
Hi,
I'm trying to setup our new Wink2 for my son to use. We have a Mac running OS 10.11.6 (El Capitan). We installed the Arduino IDE and the FTID driver. Per the FTID installation guide, before installing the FTID drivers we downloaded and ran the D2xxHelper per section 7 of
http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documen ... AC_OSX.pdf
We set the proper board and processor in the Arduino IDE but in the Port setting all we see is:
Serial ports <-- greyed out
/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port
I have tried plugging and unplugging the Wink robot, making sure it's powered on first, then after plugging in, rebooting my computer, and just nothing comes up in the port menu related to a USB port. Any other tips or things I should try?
thanks,
