Ftdi Driver Mac Os X 10.12

  • 5Linux

If you look at the notes for the Mac driver version from this FTDI web site, you will see that it says to contact support if you have a different VID /PID. I don't remember what the answer was but my memory is that you are supposed to modify a file in the installation. Mac OS X now comes with drivers for FTDI-based USB serial ports. Unfortunately, if you plug in a JTAG adapter, such as Amontec JTAGkey, you will get a serial port but CrossWorks won't be able to access the JTAG part of the adapter. In order to correct this you must unload the FTDI drivers: sudo kextunload -b com.FTDI.driver.FTDIUSBSerialDriver. Mac OS X Note: The latest FTDI driver (version 2.2.14 or higher) recognizes the Oceanic cable automatically and the procedure below is not necessary anymore. Follow these steps to make the FTDI driver recognize the Oceanic cable.

Windows XP

These instructions are mainly for Windows XP see below other versions of Windows.

Step 1:

Just plug your Arduino into the USB port with the right cable. This balloon should appear.

Step 2:

Choose the option that you’ll select the driver yourself. We don’t want to wait for Windows to find it.

Step 3:

Click “Next”.

Step 4:

Click on “Browse”

Step 5:

Driver

Search for the drivers in the Ultimaker directory (or within the Arduino files) you’ve just extracted from the downloaded zip. When the OK button becomes active, press to continue!

Step 6:

Then, choose next.

Step 7:

Press “Continue Anyway”.

Step 8:

Press “Finish”.

That’s it!

Great work! Now you can start using your AmbiLED HD or your Arduino.

Windows 7

Driver

Click the start menu, and start typing “Device”. The following entries will show up:

After clicking on “Device Manager”, you will see this screen:

If you don’t see your FTDI USB device, please make sure it was plugged in.

Right-click the FTDI device and choose “Update driver software…”

Choose that you’ll browse for the driver yourself:

Find the folder of AmbiLED HD that you’ve downloaded:

Choose the folder “FTDI USB Drivers” and click OK, then click “Next” in the Wizard.

Choose “Install”. This should be the final step in the wizard. Close the wizard and wait for a balloon to appear at the bottom right. This balloon will tell you that the driver can be used.

Congratulations: That’s it!

Windows 8 and 8.1

No driver required for most of Win8 installations. If you have any problem with your FTDI com port, simply google it. FTDI is a well known USB to Serial hardware and have a lot of solution for problems.
For example if you have driver signature problem, solution here.

Mac OS X

Make sure you’ve downloaded the DMG of ReplicatorG, it contains the driver you need. When you open it, you should see the following files:

Surprise… the ‘Drivers’ folder is where you’ll find the drivers. Open it to reveal the following contents:

Now, open the disk image with the drivers. The opened folder looks like this:

For Mac OS X Tiger (10.4), Leopard (10.5) and Snow Leopard (10.6), open the second installation package, called “FTDIUSBSerialDriver_10_4_10_5_10_6.mpkg”.

Click Continue. You’ll see the change to this version of the driver.

Click Continue, again.

Click Install to the default. Enter your (administrative) account login to authorize the installation.

This should take a minute or two until it shows that you’re done!

This document also explains how to install the driver in a step-by-step process:

Linux

Ubuntu or other Debian based systems

The FTDI Driver is included with Ubuntu/Debian. After plugging in the USB cable, you can find your device under /dev/ttyUSB0 (and ttyUSB1, ttyUSB2, etc, if you have more) or /dev/ttyACM0.

Regular users on your ubuntu system may not have permission to write to the ttyUSB or ttyACM device. For example, Pronterface may complain “SerialException: could not open port /dev/ttyACM0″. In this case, change permissions for regular users like so:

sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyACM0

Mac Os X Versions

Raspberry PI

You are lucky, there is no extra driver for standard Pi packages. They are coming with FTDI drivers.
