Can't get the pibot to work on Mac with arduino dev. It does, however, work fine in parallels on the mac.
Any hints on making it work?

Hi again howie,
Can you be more specific, what is not working? Is the Pi-Bot your only Arduino? Can you run blink from the Examles- Basic library? Are you pickingup the correct serial port? on my mac it is in the form of /dev/cu.usbmodem1A1321 and not the COMx form that you will se on a Windows system.
Regards
John

Hey I have a mac and I haven't used parallels or boot camp and mine isn't working either. As far as Arduino, you are able to install the program, but not the device. The computer itself will not recognize the device like it would on Windows. There is no place on a Mac to go view devices that have been plugged in.

Hi Miranda, Have you tried, starting the Arduino ID, without your Arduino/STEM board plugged in, then go to Tools - Port and you will may see some Serial Ports that have been used in the past, as I hope that you can see in the screen shot below.  Now plugin your Arduino/STEM board and the reselect Tools - Port and you should see an additional serial port in the list, this is the one to use.  You can also open a terminal from Application- Utilities enter "CD /dev" then enter "LS -l"and all of the devices on your system will be displayed Please let me know if you still have a problem. By the way if you joined the forum you would have been notified when this post was updated. Regards John |
