I need to brush up on my mac skills... i have no idea how to do this.. LOL

 

^^I'm with you. I have had my cable for months...and have been borrowing a friends laptop to use ecuflash/evoscan. It's prob. really easy...

 

I wouldn't mind a FAQ or how-to on using maclogger and ecuflash for OSX just to iron out all confusion regarding drivers etc.

My current understanding is that I can install maclogger and log all I want but if I have both Maclogger and Ecuflash installed I'd need to remove the drivers for each one in order to use the other as they clash.

So, is it possible to use each one on its own, one at a time, and then remove the drivers when done etc? Then install teh driver for the other, open, use, etc.

Sorry for the noob questions but that's what the internet it for...

At least I won't have to do this through parallels - the idea of flashing my ECU via parallels freaked me out so I never tried it!

BIG props to you donour for writing this app and for the support you're giving to our little sub-community here. Can't tell you how much I appreciate it!

 

let me ask you guys a question.....and this may be all of my probs....I have a powerbook G4. It doesn't have the intel chip.....is that needed for all these to work? If that's not it...i'll crawl back under my mac/mitsulogger rock.....

 

Yup that's the current method. A pain in the butt, but better than when there was no option.

It has been tested to work on a G4, but it's been a while. Let me know how it goes. I don't have a powerpc laptop anymore.

^^ok thanks...I have some connecting issues with a windows laptop. My cable sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. I still don't have a clue why.

As said before. I can launch the application...it just won't recognize my cable by showing it's serial #....I'll try again.

 

Do you have the newest version (2.01 from last dec)? This spefically fixed a problem some people were having with the cable not appearing in the drop down list (even though the driver saw it).

so where do i look to remove the libftdi system extension?

 

/System/Library/Extensions/FTDIUSBSerialDriver.kext

I just looked and saw I just have 2.0. Is it available on here or aktivematrix?

 

Follow the link in the very first post of this thread.

yup, just did that. Now I can't get either version to launch. I have the correct ftdi driver...I just checked.

 

I don't have leopard...is that where the prob. lies??

 

Wow... just wow... subbed.

I'll be trying this out as soon as I get a cable.

For the conflicting Maclogger / Ecuflash drivers, can they just be unloaded/reloaded via kmodload & kmodunload?
