Hello

I'm having problems with my leonardo since i installed yosemite.

I already installed the FTDI drivers and the interface gets recognized by my Mac but thats it, i put the leonardo in Pclink and it just won't work .

I also reinstalled the drivers provided in mac-dives webpage and nothing happens

Please help

Hi,

Perhaps you missed it, but the most recent thread is about the Leonardo: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1729

It is being discussed, and I am looking in to it. Although it's not really clear from your post what is wrong, as you only say "it doesn't work". Unfortunately it's a bit hard to help you without more information.

Did you select Download Dives -> Cressi -> Leonardo? It won't download automatically. Otherwise do you get an error message? If so, what is it?

Please read the thread I linked which has a potential workaround depending on what your problem actually is, and if you still have issues, can you please post the actual error message you are receiving? If it's the same, that's fine, we are looking in to it. Feel free to post in the existing topic! That would make it much easier to track the issue.

Thanks!

Hello Nick

Sorry for not being more specific

I did read the previous post but thats not the error i'm getting, it says "Could not detect a valid serial port". Then i go to setting, advanced and try to refresh the serial port and it also says no serial port found, in the serial port override its written "/dev/tty.Cressi-port-00005672". I tried to search it in terminal and couldn't find it.

The USB its connected directly to my mac

Ultimately this means the USB driver has not been installed correctly. If you have installed the official FTDI driver, then that may be causing issues. You need only the Cressi one linked from the devices page:

The link is: http://mac-dive.com/files/cressi_driver.zip

It contains some bits and pieces that are required to download. The official one won't work. So if you have already installed the official FTDI driver as well, it might be getting confused or may not be using the right one. I would remove it from your system, and then reboot. Then install only the cressi one linked above.

After you've installed it, try rebooting if it doesn't show up immediately. Sometimes that helps if it hasn't started up properly. If you only installed the Cressi driver, then try this first.

Thanks.

Actually just try rebooting first anyway, that will be the easiest thing to rule out first!

Hello Nick

Thanks for the help, finally made it work.

I had to unistall via terminal the FTDI and also the Prolific Drivers, because first i tried only uninstalling the FTDI but didn't work so then i unistalled the prolific, restarted and re-installed the drivers you provided and worked.

Great
