I am using Hama adapter, but you can use any other that has divers for Mac. <br /><br />The drill is quite simple, you need to install the driver. Then once you connect the adapter, it appears as a device that can be accessed from Terminal app. In my case I just type "screen /dev/tty.usbserial 9600" where tty.usbserial is the device name and 9600 is the speed.<br /><br />Valeri Loukinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915389342131738939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2188061846047537579.post-2763956972245259022013-05-06T15:41:19.416-07:002013-05-06T15:41:19.416-07:00Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I'm very new to using a Mac (a MacBook Pro with OS X 10.8.3) and I've been hoping I could temporarily make it an FTP server because the company I work for manufactures intelligent power distribution units for data centers and our method for flash updating firmware is FTP. I've been using Mac for the first time for only two weeks now. I'm loving it, but I couldn't find anyone that knew how to make it an FTP server. David Pogue's "the missing manual" was useless in this respect, as was one youth at my local Apple store who thought I'd need the Server edition or maybe even a an FTP program, but I finally found your post and it works wonderfully. You are my hero for the week.<br /><br />Any experience with USB-to-serial (RS-232) dongles and Mac OS X 10.8.3? As soon as I figure this out I should never need to touch my Windows laptop again. <br /><br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08801741696516897954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2188061846047537579.post-54657025302445448292013-04-09T06:13:47.956-07:002013-04-09T06:13:47.956-07:00Error unloading when trying to unloadError unloading when trying to unloadBassaniohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18026811840936381932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2188061846047537579.post-87474827703535076152013-01-23T08:38:44.932-08:002013-01-23T08:38:44.932-08:00Thanks that worked perfect.Thanks that worked perfect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
