Hi,

I've just switched over from PC to Mac. I have read in the FTDI installation guide that OSX Mavericks has the drivers already installed. Does anyone have any experience with Yosemite? Are the drivers installed already? If not, when I plug the OSTC 2 in for the first time, will it automatically locate and install them?

Regards

Jerry.

Try it, then you'll know it...

I'm using Mac OS X since Lion/Mountain Lion and there i had to install the FTDI drivers... afert updating to Mavericks and Yosemite i did not do anything and my OSTC is still recognized...

I was a bit reluctant to just plug it in as I know it can cause all sorts of problems if the drivers are not installed on windows ( or at least it did with XP some time ago). I don't know enough about the Mac to know whether it will be an issue or not.

Don't worry. It will work - or not. If the driver is somehow missing, your OSTC will only charge over USB, that's all..

We're using an out-of-the-box MAC OSX 10.10 here, as well. The OSTC2 works just fine with Subsurface, for example. Driver installation will happen automatically (Assuming you are online).

Regards,
Matthias

Thanks very much, I'll give it a go then.

Hi Smiler1968

Did you get this working ? I'm trying to get it working on Mac OS 10.9
Any tips appreciated ?

I upgraded my OSTC Mk2 firmware yesterday with Yotemite so it it working and perfectly stable. I've been using it since Mavericks and it's been rock solid.
