What driver do I need for this cable with Mac OSX 10.5? I want to program a UV-b5 with Chirp. Thanks

Most of the computers I use did not even need to load a driver. However, MIKLOR.COM has everything you should need to get the job done. If you need the driver, they have step by step instructions. Good Luck with CHIRP. Suggestion: Do a save about everyother line because you will have problems and it is so nice to be able to just reload the program and loose only a line or two. Also, you must down load the radio FIRST (Radio to computer). Save this file. Than: Do a SAVE AS to a different name, and do you programming on that file. DO NOT choose the NEW option. It will not load. SORRY, I see this is for the UV-5. My instructions are for the UV-82, but I would suspect it will work for your UV5 as well. Good Luck.

Not sure for a Mac product I have windows 7 and in driver setup searched the internet for the right program and installed the program itself.

I have no idea because although I am a proud Californian, I am definitely NOT an apple fan nor do I desire to know anything about apple products or issues. You need to ask an apple fan that question. Good luck!

2 Windows XP users may need to follow the instructions here if you have trouble starting CHIRP.3 MacOS users must install the KK7DS Python runtime before the application will execute. This only needs to be installed once.4 OS X support is limited to Intel architecture. PowerPC is not supported.5 Most modern distributions should have almost everything required to run chirp. Make sure you have python-serial and python-libxml2 packages installed.See Baofengtech.com "Help and Downloads" then "Downloads" then "Programming Baofeng Radios CHIRP"

There are plenty of display link drivers for OSX 10.6 and higher... you have to go to the display link website and get the driver http://www.displaylink.com/support/sla.php?fileid=87

Sorry, that is an AV setup question that is dependent on your computer and TV capability. Last I checked, USB is not the best AV connection choice when it works. Resolution and bus limitations alone are inferior to pure video output. The cable is excellent for computer to computer data transfer for migration from older Mac to newer Mac.

I have that cable and it works well with the Baofeng software but the right driver was a problem, a friend of mine that is tuned into to this set it up for me, as I can tell that is going to be the biggest problem.

A genuine cable (kenwood icon, etc.) will work I assume. The cheap Chinese cables will work as well , (suck as the ones found on amazon,) will work too. The issue with these is the drivers. If you buy one, (I own two,) you need do some research on line on how to install the driver. Once you get the driver installed for the cable the rest is simply programming the radio and writing the info. You also best to stay withthe uv-b5 series in my opinion, as the uv-5r series has several different firmware versions and that makes it a pain to use. The b5 writes very well. Inhave not used a uv-82. I hope this helped. YouTube also has some good videos that demonstrate how to install the proper driver. A genuine cable (kenwood icon, etc.) will work I assume.

Forget it, they dropped support a long time ago. I sold it as soon as I found out there would be no new driver for Mac. I think the latest one works with Leopard or something.

I had the same question and did some digging on the oregon scientific website and it says it's not compatible with Mac :(

You would need a mac compatible tuning program...the cable is 100% mac compatible however I'm unsure of any mac tuning softwares...I used tune ecu on a windows PC

Will this work on early 2008 Macbook? Since I want it to connect to my HDTV which has a digital optical audio out.

No drivers required. It isn't a P.C. If your MAC is Bluetooth enabled, it's compatable.

HiI use it on MS Windows. It didn't work without drivers I installed from CD I've got with device.There is no any directory on this CD containing any KEXTs or PKGs for OSX. Chip on this device is from VIA Co.Normally all drivers prototypes come from original designer, so send enquiry to VIA chip: VT1620A.RegardsM. Semenov

My computer recognized the USB chipset in the cord and applied a generic driver. I have no idea whether it had it onboard or pulled it off the net. This cord works with CHIRP. When you try to download from the radio you will be presented with a small menu box to select port, radio brand, and model before it will attempt to download. be sure that it is firmly seated in the speaker jack of the radio.

I originally ordered the cable with the Prolific Chipset and it did not work. This one works great on WinXP/7 and the Mac using Chirp to program a UV-B6. It comes with a tag on the cable saying it uses an FTDI chip.

I use this on an iMac running Snow Leopard. I did not add any drivers to make it work. I would guess that OS 10.10 wouldn't be any different.
