Phidgets Forums

Happy Holidays!

Any word on the reproducibility of the issue?

Cheers

Hi,

I found that Phidgets was not marked as "identified developer" on my Macbook. By accident, when installing another app, I found those check-boxes in "Security & privacy" preferences. Since I checked the check-box for Phidgets, it is working!

Hope, it will help others.

It looks like in the newer versions of MacOS, you need to give explicit permission to drivers after installing in order for them to function. You can read more about it here.

thanks for the heads up!
i booted into recovery mode and ran:
spctl kext-consent enable /System/Library/Extensions/Phidget.kext
and rebooted.

in System Preferences>Security&Privacy>General
i approved the Phidgets program and rebooted.

the Phidget Control Panel is still operational
and i'm able to control the phidget with python
but am still having no luck with the max objects.

the objects started working!
thanks for the help!

...and the objects are no longer working.
this is now happening under high sierra and el capitain
both with phidgets 21 & 22 installed.
i tried deleting and replacing the interfacekit objects but no luck.
any suggestions?

cheers

What happened in between the objects working and the objects ceasing to work? What kind of error are you getting?

no error messages- the behavior is the same as before
the only thing that changed is that i rebooted the machine
