Step 14: Browse to the location of the drivers.Ĭlick on the “Desktop” Icon in the left window and browse to the folder you extracted the drivers into in step 3 and then open the folder that holds the drivers:īrowse to the folder where you extracted the drivers in Step 3 Step 11: Click on “Show All Devices” (should be automatically selected) and the click the “Next” button:Ĭlick on “Show All Devices” and then Click the “Next” button Step 10: Click on “Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer”Ĭlick on “Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer” Step 9: Click on “Browse my computer for driver software”:Ĭlick on “Browse my computer for driver software” in the Update Driver Window Step 8: Click on the “Driver” tab of the Properties window and then click on the “Update Driver…” button:Ĭlick on the “Driver” tab and then click the “Update Driver…” button Right-Click on “FT232R USB UART” and click on Properties Step 7: Right click on “FT232R USB UART” and click on properties. Step 6: Locate the FT232R USB UART device in the device manager list: Start Menu > Right Click on “Computer” > Click on PropertiesĬlick on “Device Manager” in the Computer Properties: Step 4: Click on the Start Menu and then right click on “Computer” and click on Properties. Then click and drag the contents into another folder you must create on the desktop, I called it CDM. If you are on Windows 7 you simply double click the zip file which just “opens” the zip file like it is a folder. You can download them at: Step 3: Extract the zip file of the drivers into a folder on your desktop.įTDI drivers extracted to a folder on the desktop called CDM ![]() Then click on the usb icon on the lower right corer of the Virtual machine window and make sure that “FTDI FT232R USB UART ” is checked as seen below:ĭevice Manager-FT232R USB UART in Other devices Step 2: Download the drivers Start up your Windows 7 VirtualBox and plug your Arduino into your Mac. Step 1: Connect your Arduino to your Windows 7 VirtualBox machine. If you are on a physical Windows 7 PC simply skip down to Step 2. Arduino Will Not Show up on Serial Port–How to Install Arduino USB Drivers in Windows 7 on a PC or on VirtualBox ![]() I dislike video tutorials of step-by-step computer stuff and find them hard to follow (rewinding and pressing pause all the time) so I decided to put all the steps out there for you to follow with lots of screen shots from when I did it myself. I don’t know how to do it on a Mac but I did find a video on youtube by a German guy speaking English with a German Windows 7 machine. You can make it work, you just need to manually install the drivers. I learned that I’m having this error because of a change FTDI did to their drivers to combat clones or counterfeit Chinese chips and it’s messing all kinds of things up, real FTDI chips included and that is why it isn’t recognized. ![]() ![]() You can see from that, that this is a device from Arduino.I purchased the Kip Kay Arduino Kit and assembled it and when I got to the Part 2 > Step 9 Checkpoint I could not get the board to show up on my computer in the Arduino Software!! I tried it on a virtual machine and it saw the device in the USB port list but the Arduino software still didn’t list a COM serial port. "IOGeneralInterest" = "IOCommand is not serializable" "USB Vendor Name" = "Arduino ("Device Speed" = 1 "IOUserClientClass" = "IOUSBDeviceUserClientV2" Disregarding the other devices the last entry for me was: +-o Now try again adding -l (that's a lower-case L) to the command line. The last one in my case was the one that appeared when I plugged in the Uno. Try listing your USB devices before and after plugging in the Arduino by typing (in the Terminal): ioreg -p IOUSB -w0 This is too long for a comment so I'll make it an answer.
