No DigiUSB Device Found - mac 10.8.1 (mid 2010)
« on: February 23, 2013, 10:53:53 am »
Hi,


I am able to load programs onto the digispark and run them (i have tried the test led, and DigiSparkRGB).


But when i load DigiBlink, and then try to run DigiRGB or DigiBlink-Cheerlights they do not work.  I also tried loading Echo and using send.py and receive.py.  Each reports No DigiUSB Device Found.


I have tried this hooked directly to the mac, with and extension cable, and with a hub.


Am i doing something wrong?


Thanks for your help.

Have you installed pyusb? Sometimes this has to do with permissions as well - can you try running the python script with sudo?

This is likely a Libusb issue - which on Mac gets a bit beyond me - maybe try installing libusb-compat via homebrew


also check this thread: http://digistump.com/board/index.php/topic,199.html


and there is also a digiusb ruby gem which might be easier to get working - a few threads about that on here with some helpful hints if you need them
