Bus Pirate Support / Re: Bus Pirate v3.6a on macOS 10.14 does not work
The driver that I installed is exactly that driver that your link points to. If you click on that link, you end up at the page I linked at in my first post: the latest, signed driver provided by FTDI.

I managed to solve it. The BP does not work on the MacBook Pro 2014, but does work on the MacBook Pro 2017. I don't know why, but for me it is good now.

Hi Samir,

Thank you for your kind answer. I don't have a Windows computer, but tried it on a Linux machine. On that machine, a /dev/ttyUSB0 device appears and I can connect with it using screen.

I still hope that I get the Bus Pirate to work on macOS.

Bus Pirate Support / Bus Pirate v3.6a on macOS 10.14 does not work
I try to get the Sparkfun Bus Pirate v3.6a to work on a MacBook Pro with macOS 10.14, but I don't get it to work. When I connect the USB cable, no /dev/tty.... or /dev/cu.... device appears. I have installed the latest driver from https://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm, macOS 10.9 or higher, 2020-08-13, version 2.4.4, but that did not help.

The FDTI chip has printed:

Code: [Select]
FTDI
1917-C
F52373G1
FT232RL

The page http://dangerousprototypes.com/blog/2009/08/12/bus-pirate-connecting-with-mac-osx/ is from 2009 and not very helpful.

What should I do to make it work?
